Catholic Church linked to Saul Alinsky and Democrats?

This is not meant to be critical of the Catholic church, but the information certainly would give one pause (and I do remember the church being involved in Obamacare). The folks that did the videos have done a good bit of investigating some things going on within the Catholic church and found some of the information very interesting.

A number of Catholics have said they have seen a huge change in the church's pro-life stance and nuns who are adamantly behind Obamacare which is very much pro-abortion. There appears to be a huge divide between Catholic teachings and the support received by Obama and other politicians running for office which concerns some Catholics, because of their solid upbringing in the church and the changes that seem to be taking place (many are appalled).

I saw this link on Facebook last night. It is a series of videos posted on You Tube by Catholic Investigative Agencies. It is amazing to see links that the speaker makes between positions of the Catholic Church and the Chicagoan Saul Alinsky. It is all about "Social Justice" don't you know.

I have always wondered why the Catholic Church, once the leader in the pro-life movement, had supported Barack Obama's presidential bid and healthcare plan. Both are the most anti-life possible.

Five clips from RCTV's 1st program "Catholic Investigative Agency". Michael Voris looks into the USCCB's Catholic Campaign for Human Development and it's roots & connections to the socialistic agenda of Saul Alinsky. SHOCKING

Tamara, I was, as I said, not really taking a stand on this issue at all. I did watch the videos, and they are well done by a group that appears to be quite above board, and strongly believes they have proved the case the Catholic Campaign for Human Development may not be as staunchly supporting the stance of the church. Several of the commenters went to churches where they felt there had been some softening and change in the church's stance. Since it never hurts to know what others are thinking, I just put this together to share. Thanks for your clarification, and I do remember them trying to get this group on board when they were talking the health care bill in congress and seem to remember the abortion funding was an issue.

I will admit that I did not watch the clips. However, the Catholic church did not support Obama in his presidential bid. In my church, parishioners chose their candidate, and our priest never advised us how to vote, one way or the other except to vote our conscience. As for health care reform, the US Conference of Bishops was against the legislation because they believed it would provide federal funding for abortions. that was the official stance of the church. There were a group of Catholic nuns who run the Catholic hospitals who were for health care reform because they believed the benefits outweighed any language which may reflect the federal funding issue. The Catholic church is and has always been pro-life, which includes anti-death penalty and anti-war unless the war is "just". The church has always been a huge proponent of social justice, including providing aid to the poor and disenfranchised around the world.
