The Catechism says that the Church is both mother and teacher (CCC 2030). I believe that we, the Church, must embrace these roles in that order. This includes LGBTQ+ Catholics in a special way, because we have failed them too many times. https://t.co/PEXNTglVIj
I’m appalled to hear that the federal government executed Daniel Lee early this morning after the U.S. Supreme Court issued a seemingly unprecedented opinion at 2 am. While we were all sleeping, the government killed a man under cloak of darkness. I will have more to say soon.
Prosecutors, judges, and politicians are all about “justice for the victims” until they meet a victim’s family member who doesn’t support the death penalty. That’s when the truth becomes clear — capital punishment isn’t about the victims, it’s about the politics of retribution.
The death penalty is propped up by an incorrect belief that people can’t change. Billy Wardlow is scheduled to be executed today for a crime committed when he was 18. Billy made a horrible mistake, but he’s changed over the past 25 years. @GovAbbott should stop this execution.
For those of us in the trenches on this vital human rights issue, it’s heartening to see religious leaders speak out forcefully against government-sanctioned executions: https://t.co/ayQmdvGonj
