Catholic Bishops are calling out Joe Biden for his "I'm a good Catholic" claim

While Joe wears his faith on his sleeve, boasting about going to Mass and saying the rosary, he also says that he'll force Catholic nuns to go agains their deeply held beliefs.

He supports abortion for any reason at any point in a pregnancy.

He supports we the people paying for elective, ie not medically necessary, abortions.

While he quotes Pope Francis he's very selective in what he quotes.

As Bishop Stika of Knoxville pointed out Joe doesn't use these Pope Francis quotes:

“Unfortunately, what is thrown away is not only food and dispensable objects, but often human beings themselves, who are discarded as ‘unnecessary.’ For example, it is frightful even to think there are children, victims of abortion, who will never see the light of day.”

“Interrupting a pregnancy is like eliminating someone,” Pope Francis said. “Getting rid of a human being is like resorting to a contract killer to solve a problem.

“I ask you: ‘Is it right to ‘take out’ a human life to solve a problem? What do you think? Is it right? Is it right or not?” he continued.

Many in the crowd of about 10,000 responded, “No!”, Devdiscourse News reports.

“Is it right to hire a hitman to solve a problem? You cannot, it is not right to kill a human being, regardless of how small it is, to solve a problem. It is like hiring a hitman to solve a problem,” the pope said.

Bishop Stika wrote:

“Don’t understand how Mr. Biden can claim to be a good and faithful Catholic as he denies so much of Church teaching especially on the absolute child abuse and human rights violations of the most innocent, the not yet born,”

Bishop Tobin of Providence tweeted:

“Biden-Harris. First time in awhile [sic] that the Democratic ticket hasn’t had a Catholic on it. Sad,”

Father James Altman in Wisconsin said:

“When politics and politicians act in an immoral way, we most certainly do have the duty and obligation to speak up about it,” Altman said. “You can not be Catholic and be a Democrat. Period! Their party platform absolutely is against everything the Catholic Church teaches. So just quit pretending that you’re Catholic [if you] vote Democrat.”

The Bishops have to walk a tight line since it's illegal for them to endorse or condemn specific candidates and leftist have been trying to revoke the Church's tax exempt status, while allowing Planned Parenthood to keep its tax exempt status, for decades.

But the word is getting out. Joe Biden is no more a faithful Catholic than Adolf Hitler was.
