Did Cardinal Blase Cupich just use his Sunday homily to provide cover for Joe Biden? At lease one liberal journalist thinks so. Christopher White, national correspondent for National Catholic Reporter, published a Tweet on Sunday suggesting Cardinal Cupich had used his homily to reprimand those who have questioned Biden’s Catholic faith (e.g., Lou Holtz, Bishop Thomas Tobin, etc.)
During his homily, Cardinal Cupich stated:
“There should never be a time or a moment in which we judge others and their faith journey and say that a person is not Christian enough or Catholic enough.”
Cupich’s message stands in stark contrast to a different message issued the same day by Fr. James Altman of La Crosse, Wisconsin. Fr. Altman’s message is entitled “You Cannot be Catholic and a Democrat — Period.”
