To the editor:

Too busy covering up crimes and shelling out payments to child victims of clerical abuse, the American Catholic bishops have failed in regards to protecting and defending our Catholic faith.

I wonder how many abortions Mr. Trump paid for. I doubt that he ever read the Bible and has been the poster boy for behavior that is less than Catholic. Mr. Trumps actions are an affront to all decent people regardless of who they voted for. Where does your fear of same sex marriage and the LGBTQ community come from? Did you leave out any other groups of people? What should faithful Catholics do with with these groups? Do you take your faith into your work as an MD?

The church has failed in this, you are correct. He is not an example of Catholicism, nor was the only other president, JFK, who had naked interns in the WH pool almost daily and cheated on his wife on a weekly basis.
