Vatican Strips Famous US Pro-Lifer of Priesthood, But Defrocked American Makes It Clear He Isn't Going Away

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : CNA reported that Pavone sent them to a 26-page document on his personal website in which he discusses how he and Priests for Life have been treated by "some in the hierarchy.""We all expect that the pro-abortion groups, like Planned Parenthood, will target, harass and try to intimidate us.
50% : "But when such treatment comes from bishops and other Church authorities -- which it increasingly does -- it's particularly deplorable.""Instead of supporting and encouraging the pro-life work of the Church, some of these men try to obstruct and hinder it, and abuse their authority to try to intimidate priests and laity who make ending abortion the top priority of our lives."
37% : Pavone, 63, is the national director of Priests for Life and is well-known for his stance against abortion -- often butting heads with other leaders of the Catholic Church and Democratic politicians.
