Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio of Brooklyn has recorded a telephone call praising Assemblyman Vito Lopez, a state lawmaker who helped derail a bill that would have lifted the statute of limitations in clergy sex-abuse cases. Earlier this year, Assemblyman Lopez sponsored, and voted in favor of, a bill to legalize same-sex marriage in New York. In 2008-- as in previous elections-- Assemblyman Lopez was endorsed by NARAL Pro-Choice New York PAC.
The recording is being phoned to every registered voter in a city council district where the candidate supported by Assemblyman Lopez is in the midst of a close election battle.
Catholic Culture
So this Bishop decides to back a politician because he supported retaining the statue of limitations on clergy sex abuse. Regardless of the fact that this politician also supports issues that are anathemical to Church teaching. This Bishop supports the needs of the party (the corrupt old boys club of homosexual Bishops and clergy) at the expense of the truth, working against the desires of the majority of Catholics.
Do you think he is related to Newt Gingrich?
