    PETITION: Urge Catholic bishops to refuse Holy Communion to pro-abortion Biden! o refuse Holy Communion to pro-abortion Biden! Sign the petition here.

    August 31, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — A priest has delivered a powerful rebuke to the Democratic Party, highlighting the hypocrisy of the Catholic hierarchy, clergy, and laity who support its “platform.”

    The video of Fr. James Altman’s admonition has gone viral, racking up more than 55,000 views within 24 hours.

    “When politics and politicians act in an immoral way, we most certainly do have the duty and obligation to speak up about it,” explained Altman, a priest of the Diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin.


    He urged his listeners to call out leftist politicians who complain about pro-life Catholics’ involvement in politics to say: “You’re a bunch of hypocrites!,” pointing out that the “hyper-confusion-spreading heretic” Fr. James Martin, S.J. had just been prominently featured at the recent Democratic National Convention.


    “I guess it’s OK for James Martin to spout off for the Democrats on their national stage, but God forbid if a priest speaks out against their godless platform,” declared Altman.

    Repent of supporting the Democratic Party, or ‘face the fires of hell’


    “Here is a memo to clueless baptized Catholics,” said Altman. “You can not be Catholic and be a Democrat. Period!”


    “Their party platform absolutely is against everything the Catholic Church teaches,” said Altman. “So just quit pretending that you’re Catholic [if you] vote Democrat.”


    “Repent of your support of that party and its platform or face the fires of hell,” he warned.

    Silent clergy are ‘gutless cowards’


    Altman said Catholic clergy who refuse to speak up and condemn the Democratic party’s support for abortion “gutless cowards.”


    He went on to assert that in 2008 and 2012, no Catholic voted for Barack Obama to be president.
    There were a lot of pretenders, a lot of imposters, a lot of people masquerading as Catholics — laity and clergy alike — [but] there were zero faithful Catholics who voted for that godless politician who had the audacity to blaspheme and say, ‘God bless Planned Parenthood,’ the most racist organization on the face of this planet, founded to wipe out black babies.”


    “Wilton Gregory, figure it out!” he urged, addressing his comment to Washington, D.C.’s archbishop, who had attacked the nation’s “best pro-life president and his Catholic wife,” while simultaneously supporting the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization.

    ‘Shame on the hierarchy!’

    “It’s no wonder the faithful have lost confidence in the bishops, because so many of them did such a horrible job on the [priest sexual predation] scandal,” observed Altman. “And still to this day [they] don’t say anything about the worst miscreants, but they will get all over a priest, instantly, who simply speaks the truth.”

    “Shame on the hierarchy who covers up truth through a conspiracy of fear.”


    Altman said that some in the hierarchy are “proud and arrogant” and need to “straighten up and straighten out this mess they created ... before they lose yet more faithful to the fastest growing denomination in the United States, ex-Catholics.”


    “The reason why we are seeing the signs of the times,” said Altman, “is that way too many people do not know God,” because “shepherds of the Church haven’t taught them.”

    The Great Schism is upon us.

    Soon, the Remnant, Faithful to the historical teachings of the Church, will be forced underground to await the arrival of Jesus in glory to deal with the Apostates.

    God bless Fr. Altman!

    Pro-life priests denounce ‘Catholics for Biden’ as scam: ‘No Catholic can vote for Biden’

    'The whole idea of Catholics for Biden is a scam'

    Fri Sep 4, 2020 - 3:03 pm EST

    PETITION: Urge Catholic bishops to refuse Holy Communion to pro-abortion Biden! Sign the petition here.

    September 4, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – A group calling itself “Catholics for Biden” — created to generate grassroots Catholic support for the pro-abortion Democrat Presidential candidate — launched Thursday night with a virtual national Zoom meeting, attracting 1,100 participants.

    Catholics who tuned into the online meeting were repeatedly steered away from being “single issue” voters as a means to help them overcome qualms of conscience regarding the former VP and his running mate, Kamala Harris, who have pledged unwavering support for maintaining a legal right to abortion across the United States.

    The 58 minute-long meeting, attended by LifeSiteNews, began with short keynote speeches by dissident Sister Simone Campbell, executive director of the Network Lobby for Catholic Social Justice and known for her support for legal abortion, and U.S. Senator Richard Durbin (D-Illinois) who has been barred by Bishop Thomas Paprocki from receiving communion.

    Sister Simone “Nuns on a Bus” Campbell claimed that the outlawing of abortion by reversing Roe
    v Wade “has never been our faith” and dismissed conservative Catholics as “Silly.”
    “White Catholics have gotten it wrong” in past elections, said Campbell.

    She touted her organization’s new theme, “Helping Catholics see that they are multi-issue voters,” and its new website, PopeFrancisVoter.org, which aims to drive the Catholic electorate to be “in harmony with what Pope Francis teaches.”

    The evening’s most extreme assertions came from Dr. Stephen Schneck, retired Director of the Institute for Policy and Research & Catholic Studies at The Catholic University of America and a former Obama White House appointee.

    “In his four harrowing years in office, President Trump has proven himself to be the least pro-life president in history,” declared Schneck.

    “He’s proven that he’s only capable of dividing us,” asserted Schneck. “President Trump fosters hate and intolerance.”

    During a five-person panel discussion, moderator Felice Gorordo noted that a high percentage of panelists, including himself, had been heavily influenced by Jesuit education and formation. Panelist Peter Kellner mentioned he had recently become a member of the board of directors of Jesuit-run America Media, publisher of America Magazine where pro-LGBT Fr. James Martin, SJ, is an editor-at-large.

    Top U.S. pro-life priests had plenty to say about the “Catholics for Biden” effort.

    Catholics for Biden: Another wolf in sheep’s clothing

    “The whole idea of Catholics for Biden is a scam,”
    said Fr. Michael Orsi, a priest of the Diocese of Camden, New Jersey, who currently serves as parochial vicar for St. Agnes Parish in Naples, Florida, and a former chaplain of Ave Maria School of Law in Naples.

    The group seeks “to gloss over his hostility to the Catholic teaching condemning abortion,” Orsi told LifeSiteNews. “It grasps onto the Seamless Garment canard and encourages voters to weigh all of the perceived ‘good things’ that the Democrats promote for social justice. The fact is that all these entitlements presume an equality in the issues. Unless a person has the right to life all else is meaningless.”

    “What these ‘Catholics for Biden’ forget is that the argument that ‘I am personally against but respect the rights of others to procure an abortion’ is inherently evil,” said Orsi, “since it is causing deaths and leading others to sin.”


    “Voting for Biden will broadly expand abortion, even to the time of birth if he were to be elected,” continued Orsi. “This in itself may cause a voter to at least be responsible for material cooperation in sin.”

    “This group is another wolf in sheep’s clothing,” he concluded.

    Disobedient Catholics seeking companionship

    “Just as Satan prowls the earth, looking for more souls to ruin; so often we see disobedient Catholics seeking companionship and support in their scandalous ways,” said Fr. Stephen Imbarrato, an activist pro-life Catholic priest, a regular on EWTN, and a member of Red Rose Rescues, when asked about Catholics for Biden.

    Fr. Imbarrato said that Biden’s actions result in “multiple grave scandals against our Catholic faith,” adding, “Let’s look at how many ways Biden violates his Catholic faith”:


    • Supports abortion;
    • Supports contraception;
    • Supports immoral experimentation;
    • Supports sexual disorders and perversions by promoting the LBGTQ agenda, and has presided over a same-sex “marriage”;
    • Supports an environmental policy that includes population control measures
    • Opposes freedom of conscience and religion, as evidenced in his pledge to force the Little Sisters of the Poor to provide abortifacients to employees;
    • Fails to defend our Catholic faith, remaining quiet while left-wing organizations have attacked Catholic Churches and property.


    Catholics for Biden: Ignoring President Trump’s pro-life successes


    “People who talk about ‘single-issue Catholic voting’ are setting up a straw man,” asserted Fr. Frank Pavone, national director of Priests for Life. “We all know there are many issues. But if a candidate came along and said, “I support terrorism,” voters would not ask, ‘OK, but what’s your healthcare plan?’ Certain issues disqualify candidates.”

    “But Biden’s ‘Catholic’ problem does not just involve abortion,” Pavone told LifeSiteNews, noting that the Democrat candidate said he would reinstate the HHS mandate as it was before Hobby Lobby.

    “So are ‘Catholics for Biden’ not to care that their clergy, their Church, and its ministries will again be battling in court so that they don’t have to choose between following their faith and following the law?” asked Pavone. “In that case one would have to wonder if ‘Catholics for Biden are also ‘Catholics for Catholics.’”

    “Are Catholics for Biden too busy talking about how ‘Catholic’ he is rather than paying attention to the successes we’re having under President Trump?” wondered Pavone.

    “Biden has an astonishing lack of accomplishments over his 47-year career in Washington politics,” said Pavone. “Do ‘Catholics for Biden’ really believe year 48 would be any different?”

    Catechism requires Catholics not to vote for Biden, a man in “persistent mortal sin”


    “We urge those Catholic officials who choose to depart from Church teaching on the inviolability of human life in their public life to consider the consequences for their own spiritual well being, as well as the scandal they risk by leading others into serious sin,” said Fr. Imbarrato,
    quoting the teaching of the US Bishops in Living The Gospel of Life (USCCB 199 #31. “We call on them to reflect on the grave contradiction of assuming public roles and presenting themselves as credible Catholics when their actions on fundamental issues of human life are not in agreement with Church teaching.”

    “I challenge anyone, based on the Church's teaching on scandal, to explain to the Catholic faithful how Joe Biden is not in persistent mortal sin from scandal (CCC 2284-2286) and how a Catholic, using their vote, does not commit the grave sin of scandal (CCC 2287) if they vote for Biden.

    At the Republican National Convention, Sister Dede famously spoke about the importance of being not just “pro-life” but being “pro-eternal life.”

    “Do we care about Joe Biden’s soul and do we care about our own souls?” asked Fr. Imbarrato. “If so, no Catholic can vote for Joe Biden.”

    Fr. James doubles down: ‘You can’t be Catholic and be a Democrat.’

    After the first video, he and his parish have been doxed and received vile messages. In the latest video, Fr. James states that they threatened him with the Internal Revenue Service for getting ‘political’.

    In addition to being a Priest of God, Fr. Altman is an MBA, JD. Fr. James artfully diffuses their argument citing the Constitution, an Executive Order from President Trump and statements from the Chairman of the FEC.

    My Almighty God bless ​​him and the Woman Clothed with the Sun keep him safe!
