Bozek violated man’s laws, not God’s

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Re: St. Stan’s priest is stripped of duties.

I can’t believe what I read. Fr. Bozek is removed from the priesthood. He is pastor of St. Stanislaus attempting to conduct this parish according the theology of Vatican II Council. The Vatican…

Church shows its hateful side in dumping Bozek

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Once again the Catholic church has revealed its ugly, hateful, and hypocritical side. It has chosen to dump Rev. Bozek because he has not followed the dictates of the Church. What offense he has actually committed is that he has…

Reports of an attempted “takeover” of Catholic Charities are unfounded

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Reports of an attempted “takeover” of Catholic Charities by interim Bishop Robert Hermann are unfounded. It is a fundamental principle of Church law that “when the diocese is vacant, nothing may be innovated.” As temporary Administrator of the archdiocese, Hermann…

Catholic Church is close to erasing the church/state line

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

The rhetoric coming from the Catholic Church surrounding Barak Obama’s stand on the pro-choice issue is becoming awfully close to erasing the line between church and state. The church’s continued interference in parishioners political beliefs and their barage of politically…

The scale and moral reasoning are different

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Donald Lundgren complains about the stance of the US Catholic bishops in his letter of 11-21-08. He asks, “Is killing a human embryo of greater moral weight than torturing a prisoner to death or killing our soldiers in a war…

The bishop is right; the wrath of God is ours

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I am writing in response to Mr. Townsend’s article regarding Bishop Robert Hermann’s eloquent appeal to people of faith to reject any candidate who wants to perpetuate the intrinsically evil practice of killing the unborn children. There are candidates who…

Does the bishop want church doctrine enforced with all people, not just Catholics?

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

So Bishop Hermann is from a family of 15 children. This is the norm for women not practicing birth control. Is that what he wants for all women in America? Since few Catholics today have large families it appears that…

It takes moral fiber to speak truth to power

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

In the November 1, 2008 issue of the St Louis Post- Dispatch, Bishop Robert Hermann of St Louis is said to have “picked up the Nazi imagery from Burke’s 2004 pastoral letter”. What Bishop Hermann has failed to do is…

Some actions aren’t single-minded

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Reader Rebecca G. Janski’s September 23 letter said she was upset because Tim Townsend’s article on Central Reform Congregation Rabbi Susan Talve receiving a national award devoted too much to recalling Talve’s ordaining two women as Catholic priest as a…

Everyone seems to have different “truths” about St. Stan

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

In his response to Colleen Carroll Campbell’s August 14 editorial column, William Tortella seemed a bit misleading to me.  What he quotes as ‘truth’ about St. Stanislaus Parish is as slanted as he accuses Ms. Campbell’s comments to be.  
 
Churches were closed after…
