Conciliar Chicago Hierarchy Begs Secular Courts for Conscience Exemptions from Assisted Suicide Law
The National Catholic Register, organ of the conciliar sect’s “EWTN” media apparatus, reports that a United States federal district judge, Franklin Valderrama, has granted a temporary injunction shielding the “Archdiocese of Chicago,” the “Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm,” and the “Little Sisters of the Poor” from enforcement of Illinois’ assisted suicide statute while a federal lawsuit proceeds. The lawsuit, filed September 3 by the “religious liberty law firm Becket,” includes as plaintiffs “Archbishop” Blase Cupich and the aforementioned post-conciliar religious congregations. The “Cardinal” Cupich declared the law should be struck down “permanently,” insisting the Church’s objection “is not an attempt to impose Catholic teaching on non-Catholics” but merely “to stop the State from compelling Catholic health care providers to violate their conscience.” Meanwhile, the antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) was photographed meeting with the “Little Sisters of the Poor” in Istanbul last November. Parallel litigation by “Bishop” Thomas Paprocki of Springfield and the Thomas More Society seeks to extend similar protections to “95% of Catholic health institutions in Illinois.” This sordid spectacle of the conciliar hierarchy groveling before Masonic tribunals for permission to refrain from murder epitomizes the total capitulation of the neo-church to the secularist order condemned by Pius XI and Pius IX.
