text: Spot on Shoshiru, I whole heartedly agree. I would challenge the chorus of USCCB naysayers to show me where in the Gospel Christ implores environmental friendliness and being 'nice' as the ultimate virtues. I can certainly point to where Jesus upholds marriage as indissolvable. The USCCB does those trying to live an authentic Catholicity a great favour by, with humility I might add, ignoring the confusion being sewn and dispensed from Rome under the Francis papacy.
  
  The Trump criticism at the end really reads like a lame after thought. I'm Canadian, but that professed Catholics are still deriding the validly elected candidate that didn't defend abortion, even partial birth abortion, before the entire world (third debate) boggles the mind.  Killing babies is OK I guess, as long as you don't hurt the environment?  God help us.
