St Stanislaus Spokesman - Still Clueless

St. Stanislaus spokesman, Richard Bach, debates Edward R. Martin, Jr. (Father McGivney Fellow for Rights of Conscience, Americans United for Life) on KWMU radio.

Having only listened to only a few minutes of the "debate", it's readily apparent that Richard Bach has learned nothing these past few months with respect to truth or reality. It's amazing that anyone with half a brain could find anything he says convincing.

As in the past, he interrupts and states that he needs time to correct points made by others which he says are incorrect. What is "incorrect" to Bach about the truth is that it doesn't fit within the false paradigm he and others at St. Stanislaus have established for themselves. Defiant disobedience results in a darkness in which the light of truth becomes an unwelcomed adversary.

And as is usual, he is wrong again. For instance, when Mr. Martin mentioned that the board and the priest had excomunicated themselves, Bach responds:

"...the Archbishop is the one who is stating that we are not in communion, in fact, he made the declaration of excommunication back at the beginning of December - he actually had a written statement that was a declaration of excommunication. At that time it was stated that it was the six board of directors as well as the priest who was suspended by Archbishop (?) Leibrecht...so there was a formal statement made...

"We are not the ones separating ourselves from the Roman Catholic Church, we do not feel we are separate from the Roman Catholic Church. In fact there are a number of canon laws that verify that we still are in union with the Roman Catholic faith, with the practice of Roman Catholicism. We as the parishioners of St. Stanislaus... "

The poor man! Complete ignorance about excommunication! Complete ignorance about 'communion with the Church'. Complete ignorance regarding Canon Law! What rationale would there possibly be to choose someone like this to be a spokesman?

Reality must be something completely foreign to him. If the situation were not so serious, Bach's comments would be comical.

I really need to take the 50 minutes to listen to the rest of this - soon.
