27. No True Catholic, eh?
Wed Jan 1, 2014, 10:44 AM
Jan 2014

And are Catholics who use birth control or have extramarital sex CINOs too? Are Catholics who think abortion and same-sex marriage should be legal (like many DU Catholics) CINOs? Is any "cafeteria Catholic", who picks and chooses what parts of Catholic doctrine they will believe and adhere to and what parts they won't, deserving of your scorn?
