Enda-life Kenny & Excommunication.

Image
Whether he realises it or not, the Irish Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, who will forever more be known as Enda-life Kenny, has excommunicated himself as a result of championing the abortion legislation which was passed in Ireland at about 12:30am this morning. Kenny's singular pursuit of this policy has been shocking. He forbade a free-vote on a matter of conscience, then he expelled four TDs from Fine Gael for voting according to their consciences. Today on Sky News , the legislation is still being wrongly reported as having come about as the result of the death of Savita Halappanavar  for want of an abortion. (For the full story on Savita's tragic case, look here ). A public excommunication would be the most charitable and merciful thing that could happen to him now. He needs to be made aware how much he has separated himself from Christ and His Church, and that his immortal soul is in peril. Nick Donnelly over at Protect the Pope reports on how Archbishop Eamon Mart...

Boston & Enda—Cardinal Seán Speaks Out

Today Father James Bradley noted that Cardinal Seán Patrick O’Malley, O.F.M.

Recently I learned that the Prime Minister of Ireland, the Hon. Mr. Enda Kenny was slated to receive an hon...

Boston College & Enda Kelly

The main reason for posting this is to publicise the fact that Boston College is honouring the Irish Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, by awarding him an honorary degree and inviting him to deliver the Commencement Address this year. Or as LifeSiteNews brilliantly puts it: PM Foisting abortion on Ireland to be honoured by Jesuit Boston College . This was first reported by Lisa Graas on 5th May. I noticed it on Protect the Pope on Tuesday, and my friend CC Father has written a letter as well. I think  Caroline Farrow says it best: So whilst ordinary lay Catholics are fighting tooth and nail in order to keep abortion out of Ireland, whilst GPs are finding their jobs and families are on the line for speaking their minds, what is happening to that nominal Catholic Enda Kenny? You know the man who closed Ireland’s embassy in the Holy See, who  misled the Irish public with regards to the Cloyne Report, pointing the finger solely at the Vatican in a speech loaded with venom ...
