More so-called Catholics that should be excommunicated from the Catholic Church


This story is a continuation of my earlier article about so-called “Catholics” whose actions and policies stand against the Catholic Church and its teachings.

1) Jimmy Kimmel 

One thing you might not know about Jimmy Kimmel, the night show host, is that he's Catholic. At least he claims he is. But Kimmel aligns himself with the Liberal Left and alienates conservatives, including Catholics who have conservative beliefs. On August 15, 2017, Kimmel stated that everyone who voted for Trump is an idiot and blamed them for division in the United States.  

Kimmel also uses his platform to push forward his own agenda, especially against Catholic beliefs and conservatives, including (you know it) conservative Catholics. 

At the 2018 Academy Awards ceremony, which he hosted, Kimmel made anti-conservative and anti-men remarks when he discussed the Oscar Statue design in his opening monologue. Kimmel also said that America needs more wimpy men, using “Oscar” statue as an example of that kind of man.

While this joke came as a result of the Harvey Weinstein and other sexual abuse scandals, it's clear to the observer that Kimmel is pushing forward the liberal agenda of emasculating young men and boys. This cultural heresy aims at preventing young men from being who they are and practicing real masculinity in their lives. 

Hollywood's desire to portray men as either barbarians or wimps is written in their DNA. Just look at any movie and you see it. Instead of creating good and strong male characters young men can look up to, they . For example, "Thor: Ragnarok (2017)" shows the mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth)—the serious, strong, and brave Avenger—as a wisecracking dimwit throughout the film. That's something we'd expect from Iron Man, not the God of Thunder. 

Kimmel pushes forward Hollywood ideology of glorifying weak, timid men. This goes against what the Church and several Catholic organizations are fighting for. We need men who have the strength and confidence to be themselves and take action without fear or doubt. That’s what a good man is.

Kimmel's positions earn him nothing less than complete excommunication from the Catholic Church. 


2) All of these U.S. Senators who voted against the 20-week abortion ban bill 

On January 29, 2018, the U.S. Senate failed to bring the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act to a vote. 46 out of 97 senators, mostly Republicans, voted in support of the bill in order to bring it to a final vote. It would have ended most late-term abortions after the 20-week gestation period. 

The bill had passed the U.S. House of Representatives before it was sent to the Senate. 

It needed 60 votes in the Senate to pass into law and be sent to President Trump's desk, unless Republican senators decided to end a Democrat filibuster by using the "nuclear option" and have Vice President Mike Pence act as a deciding vote.

Debate on the bill was expected to continue after the vote. From there, the bill could be sent to President Trump's desk and signed into law. 

Yet 14 senators who voted against the bill are facing controversy because they are "Catholics" who support abortion and killing unborn children. 

LifeSiteNews reported that Fr. Dwight Longenecker called on Catholic bishops to excommunicate the 14 "Catholic" Democrat senators who voted against this 20-week abortion ban bill. 

Fr. Longenecker argues that since these 14 senators publicly degrade the Catholic faith by supporting abortion and enact polices that keep abortion legal, as seen in their votes against the 20-week (late-term) abortion ban bill, they deserve to be publicly excommunicated from the Catholic Church. 

The names of the 14 so-called "Catholic" U.S. Senators are: 

·      Maria Cantwell (D) – Washington
·      Susan Collins (R) – Maine
·      Dick Durbin (D) – Illinois
·      Kirsten Gillibrand (D) – New York
·      Heidi Heitkamp (D) – North Dakota
·      Tim Kaine (D) – Virginia 
·      Patrick Leahy (D) – Vermont
·      Ed Markey (D) – Massachusetts
·      Catherine Cortez Masto (D) – Nevada
·      Claire McCaskill (D) – Missouri 
·      Bob Menendez (D) – New Jersey
·      Lisa Murkowski (R) – Alaska
·      Patty Murray (D) – Washington
·      Jack Reed (D) – Rhode Island


Only four of the senators are from the Midwest and the center of the United States. The rest are from the East and West Coasts.

The fact that these men and women failed to uphold the Catholic faith by passing a bill aimed at protecting unborn human life shows that they deserve to be completely severed from all ties to the Church. 

I already discussed the merits for Sen. Tim Kaine's excommunication in my earlier article. Now I will focus on his Democrat counterpart from Illinois, Dick Durbin.  



3) Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) 

Senator Dick Durbin from Illinois, like other Democrat politicians, shows he's not above attacking Catholics for their faith. 

Fox News contributed Todd Starnes reported that Durbin was one of several Democrat senators who attacked devout Catholic Amy Barrett, a law professor at Notre Dame and one of President Donald Trump's federal judicial nominees. Durbin and his Democrat colleagues attacked Barrett because she's a Catholic. 

It is also worth noting that Senator Dick Durbin was denied receiving Holy Communion as a result of his pro-choice and anti-life position. 

Is it too much to ask for his excommunication for voting against the abortion ban bill back in January?


4) Sen. Claire McCaskell, D-MO

Sen. Claire McCaskell’s is out of touch with the Catholic faith and the values of everyday Americans. Her decision to vote against the 20-week abortion ban shows that.

To her credit though, McCaskell has condemned Hillary Clinton’s recent comments against white men and women who voted for Trump.

Clinton made the remarks on Tuesday, March 13, as she visited India. She told an audience in India that white women are victims to their husbands and sons. 

Clinton claimed white women only voted for Trump because their husbands and sons told them to. Clinton assumes that white women, and white men, can't make decisions on their own.

Clinton has previously labeled all conservatives and Trump supporters as a "basket of deplorables." And yes, that includes Catholics who are conservative.

Never mind the fact that Clinton demonized women who accused her husband, Bill Clinton, of sexual assault and harassment. Never mind that Clinton is pro-choice and anti-life. Never mind that Clinton continues to blame everyone but herself for losing the election

Clinton’s remarks show that she is bigoted against men and women who are white Caucasians or have conservative beliefs. She is completely out of touch with reality, average Americans, and Catholics. 

If McCaskell’s statement against Clinton is just a political stunt before the midterm elections in November, then that is hypocritical. After all, she did try to cover up her family’s use of a private plane from the public, as reported by Fox News.

What better way to condemn Missouri Senator Claire McCaskell and reject her polices than to vote against her in the November midterm elections this year and excommunicate her from the Catholic Church?
