REAL COVID CRISIS: Church Silent While Unvaxed Persecuted
Fr. Daniel Nolan courageously proclaims he is compelled to speak-out due to the persecution of the unvaccinated. Most priests and bishops have remained silent during this unjust discrimination.

Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church: Chapter Two
THE CHURCH'S MISSION AND SOCIAL DOCTRINE
d. The rights and duties of the Church
Men and women must respond to the gift of salvation not with a partial, abstract or merely verbal acceptance, but with the whole of their lives - in every relationship that defines life - so as not to neglect anything, leaving it in a profane and worldly realm where it is irrelevant or foreign to salvation. For this reason the Church's social doctrine is not a privilege for her, nor a digression, a convenience or interference: it is her right to proclaim the Gospel in the context of society, to make the liberating word of the Gospel resound in the complex worlds of production, labour, business, finance, trade, politics, law, culture, social communications, where men and women live.
This right of the Church is at the same time a duty, because she cannot forsake this responsibility without denying herself and her fidelity to Christ: "Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel!" (1 Cor 9:16).
When the wicked are in authority, transgression increases;
but the righteous will look upon their downfall.
—Proverbs 29:16 (RSV)
