Novena for Life

[Paul]

As a body, the USCCB is corrupt to the core.

Perhaps so. That doesn't mean everything they do is evil, and an end to legal abortion is worth praying for, no matter who's doing the praying. And no matter how corrupt they are, they're still bishops of the Church, and prayer in union with the Church is good. It's not like they're making you publicly do anything or sign up for this, which, if they were, might justify refusal.

I pray every day for the end of abortion, but I will not join an effort that just 'happens' to be right in the middle of the non-USCCB 54 Day Rosary Novena, 'Novena for Our Nation'. Coincidence? I think not.

I will pray. But I won't participate in this political stunt of theirs.

There are no coincidences when the Devil is involved. And I know of few things so heavily entrenched in evil as the USCCB. They've been intent on destroying the faith in the USA for decades.

I don't think that praying for an end to abortion is an act destructive of the Faith.

Nor does anyone else, Francis fanboy # 1. It's just that we do it all the time, unlike the USCCB calling a special novena to interrupt the Novena for Our Nation.

Peace.....God will bring the good out of the most vile situations.  Praying for an end to abortion must continue and God will cyphen out the wheat from the darnell.  He knows which prayers are purely motivated and which are not.  God bless, angeltime :heart:
