IS CINO AN APPROPRIATE ACRONYM?

As often happens I feel constrained to correct something I saw in a "news" headline.

This one read, "Kennedy dispute reveals divide among Catholics," which is entirely incorrect; Catholics are not in favor of abortion, any more than they are of the murder of those outside the womb. It violates a commandment; hence, also Catholic teaching.

No, there is no divide among Catholics on the issue, but just as RINO, Republicans In Name Only, is informative, perhaps Catholics In Name Only deserve their own tag.

Happy Thanksgiving!
