The president vowed this month that his administration would do 'everything we can' to preserve abortion on demand.


(LifeSiteNews) — President Joe Biden “ignores or betrays the faith all the time” for the sake of power, Archbishop Emeritus of Philadelphia Charles Chaput says of the “Catholic” Democrat leader’s avowed support for unlimited abortion on demand.

Earlier this month, the president demanded in his annual State of the Union Address that Congress “restore the right the Supreme Court took away last year and codify Roe v. Wade to protect every woman’s constitutional right to choose” abortion and vowed that his administration would do “everything we can to protect access to reproductive health care,” a euphemism for abortion.

Speaking with ACI Prensa, a Spanish partner of Catholic News Agency, Chaput answered a question about the challenge to the Catholic Church posed by secularization.

“Secularization is one of those magic words that implies an inevitable social process,” he said. “There’s nothing inevitable about it. People choose it because it’s the easy and materially rewarding path. We all struggle with a desire to imitate ‘the world.’ It’s been a temptation since the devil offered to give the world to Jesus. It’s especially tempting for leaders like bishops and priests in the Church, and politicians in the secular order.”

A better pope would have seen to it this man had been made a cardinal.
