Australia Premier berates cardinal for comments on Christian politicians

New South Wales Premier Kristina Keneally has strongly berated Cardinal George Pell, saying she is greatly “saddened” by his recent comments criticizing Christian politicians who disregard Church teaching. She said she believes Pell risks being “interpreted as condemnatory and threatening,” reports LifeSiteNews.com.

Kealey who bills herself as a devout Catholic, opposes Church teaching on homosexuality and abortion.

Opinion
Recognising Reality - Grieve that God is cursed for every catastrophe, but seldom praised for His wonderful Creation. Lament that God makes the news headlines only when man mocks His power or questions His goodness, but tens-of-thousands of God’s acts of mercy, grace, protection, provision and patience receive no headlines. Grieve that the Name of the only righteous Man who ever walked the earth is used as a swear word on T.V. screens and in cinemas across the world. Grieve that God is blasphemed by the very same people who question why God does not restrain the consequences of their own rebellious actions
