The following comes from a November 9 LifeNews article by Micaiah Bilger:
More than 50 so-called faith-based organizations are defending Planned Parenthood in the face of multiple Congressional investigations into its abortion practices.
“A world without Planned Parenthood would be disastrous for many women and their families – particularly young women, women of color and women in rural areas,” the letter states. “We urge you to reject attacks that would reduce federal funding or otherwise undermine the provision of critical services by Planned Parenthood.”
Some of the groups signing the letter include:
A Critical Mass: Women Celebrating Eucharist
Anti-Defamation League
Bend the Arc: A Jewish Partnership for Justice
Catholics for Choice
Concerned Clergy for Choice
DignityUSA
Episcopal Women’s Caucus
Hadassah, The Women’s Zionist Organization of America, Inc.

No catholic groups here! Misleading title.
Absolutely agreed!
Agreed, we should not be presenting “Catholics for Choice” as a Catholic organization. It is a small group of subversives who formed a “non-membership” organization containing the word Catholic, so as to fool other Catholics into thinking it’s all right to be pro-abortion. When we refer to them as “Catholic” we help them put over that hoax.
Too bad the Church cannot sternly forbid the groups of wayward, immoral nuns and others, under the title of “Catholic”— from acceptance and support of anti-Christian beliefs, and practices! I think the church should excommunicate them, if they refuse to repent, and change! How horrible, all the murders of unborn babies, supported by groups under the title of “Catholic!:
Perhaps the title should be changed to “Katholic” from Catholic.
It is a true HORROR, before Almighty God– to see a group of so-called “Catholic nuns,” who favor and support abortions, MURDERS– of little helpless unborn children, at Planned Parenthood!! Instead, a true Catholic nun, consecrated to God, whose Spouse is Christ– should be working tirelessly to educate everyone in Christian morality, and try to save all of the poor babies from death! And after that– offer love and support, as well as access to good medical care (especially in Catholic hospitals and clinics, run by nuns of Nursing religious orders!) — to the pregnant mothers, and help them nurture their little ones, after they are born!
No true Catholic nuns would sign on to this tripe.
I love the heading, “some of the groups signing…”. Which tries to imply there are many many more religious groups that signed, but there is not enough room to name them all. The list is a joke
Agreed. You know, it is almost like someone else has taken or this calcatholic. Just not the same as it used to be in that the content is not at all great anymore.
Good comment, Elizabeth.
I agree with Elizabeth M. The title of this article is VERY misleading. The only group mentioned that has “Catholic” in it’s name is NOT Catholic.
California Catholic Daily should correct it’s error forthwith!
Moorpark Guy, this article is presented as a reprint, not as something California
Catholic Daily has written and is presenting as the original author. Often we are presented with articles that are reprints, and frequently readers comment on the erroneous items contained within. Obviously CCD cannot both present the article and change it at the same time, but few things get by our sharp readers. Of course, we have trolls here too in abundant supply, but most comments are from the hearts and minds of faithful Catholics.
Agreed.
Anyone who claims to be a Member of the Universal and Apsotalic Church, but do not abides in the Majesterium is a FAKE! The Tree of the Mystical Body has no Darkness at all! It is the Presence of God that means we, the Mambers of That Mysticl must focus our dialy lives with HIm Who is the Body, thus, must live as He Commands! If not, He will spite that member right out from His Mouth! He will say: “I know yoiu not!” Amen!
How many of these organizations are funded by George Soros?
No Catholic groups. Headline is misleading. Only dissidents in not full communion with church teaching.
Thank you. Right on
Not a single Catholic group..,.the ADL wow I am so shocked….
The original title had the words “Catholic” and “Methodist” in quotation marks.
Just the usual suspects, nothing to see here, move along.
