By William Mahoney, Ph.D., Church Militant - The Vatican was unsuccessful in softening the USCCB's statement that spotlights heretical positions of self-identifying Catholic Joe Biden... Slated for release at 9 a.m. Wednesday morning, the statement clarified points of contradiction between perennial Catholic teaching and some of Biden's policies. Though the Vatican succeeded in delaying the timing, the statement remained intact and has been published on the USCCB website.
