Has Nancy Pelosi Mocked The Catholic Faith?

SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI

Is She Catholic?

Brokaw on a August 2008, Meet The Press, continued to press Pelosi on the question of observing the faith: "The Catholic Church at the moment feels very strongly that it (life)… begins at the point of conception."

Pelosi again side-stepped the question, suggesting that the Church's current position is only a recent position and that "over the history of the church, this is an issue of controversy."

The President of the Catholic League, Bill Donohue, responded to Pelosi's statements on Meet the Press, observing that the Church's position on abortion is clear beyond any doubt. "Here is what the Catechism of the Catholic Church says: 'Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception.'"

He continued, "It also says, 'Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable.'

Speaker Pelosi's Parish/Church: Mrs. Pelosi, a member of St. Vincent de Paul Parish in San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood

Here is the link to her church:http://www.svdpsf.org/ and the contact information for her bishop: http://www.sfarchdiocese.org/about-us/archbishop/ which I encourage every Catholic to contact and encourage the church take action against Mrs. Pelosi.

We can't have political leaders proclaim the faith and at the same time deny the principles of the faith before the nation.
