Droppings from the Catholic Birdcage: "Without Freedom of Expression, the World Is in Danger" (Memo to Miami)



Yesterday, Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, president of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, released a statement with the leaders of France's Islamic community indicating that they stand with Pope Francis in denouncing cruelty and violence caused by ideological oppression of others. The statement says,


Without freedom of expression, the world is in danger.

As Archbishop of Thomas Wenski shakes his bully stick and threatens to fire employees of Catholic  institutions if they freely express their views about human rights for gay folks on the internet, someone needs to get a copy of the Vatican statement to Archbishop Wenski.

Posthaste.
