One of the best videos on youtube 'Separation of Church and State' and it's about time the church here started to speak out, as the sick and disabled in their increased sufferings and poverty are starting to die. We have Bishops in the House of Lords? WHAT ARE THEY DOING???? Your Mercy Lord. Amen.
Much of what this priest says is logical and correct, I think that he is speaking from a purely American perspective. He recognizes that the state wrongly encroaches on religion but he seems incapable of imagining a situation where the reverse is true. In Ireland the Catholic church has complete control of state education and continues to exercise power normally reserved for the state. True morality should not be based on religion but on conscience; child sex abuse scandals prove this.
You mention that the king of israel had to obey the 10 commandments. then there was no separation of church and state then. which makes your argument invalid.
You have it all exactly correct, Father. I am surprised at your frankness. Most priests won't touch the subject of Church and State. If they do it is handled in a most indirect way.
Always refreshing to hear politics coming from the pulpit.
I believe our Founding Fathers were greatly influenced by God.
