Voice of the Faithful Donation Rejected by Catholic Charities
A $750 donation from Voice of the Faithful was rejected by Catholic Charities. The VOTF made donations to 4 charities totaling a less than whopping $3250 as part of their effort to bypass the Bishop's Annual Appeal. I have never given a dime to the diocese because I realized, way before VOTF was around, that much of the money was not well spent. But, I notice the VOTF (here and elsewhere) always give to politically correct charities and never to some of the necessary but boring causes. Why not donate to the Tribunal? Why not give to a religious education program? Why not donate to a fund that pays for Catholic school teacher's salaries? Can you imagine VOTF giving to Catholics United for the Faith or the Catholic League? It would make sense for them to donate to Roman Catholic Faithful since this group has actually had success in forcing corrupt priests and bishops out. VOTF are claiming to be faithful Catholics but I think if they were able to decide how money is spent and what the Church's priorities would be, we would be left with no Church but plenty of social services. This group sounds like the others such as Call to Action and FutureChurch, a bunch of old, ignorant secular humanists posing as Catholics.
