Today’s dose of sulphur from the Amazon Synod is perhaps the worst news yet.
As one Catholic Bishop I denounce this disgusting cooperation with evil & urge every believing Catholic to join me, we are morally bound to speak for the voiceless unborn children……Pro-Abortion Ford Foundation Major Funder of Key Synod Organizations https://t.co/IIoEQXfiRH— Bishop J.
