Saving Those Damned Catholics
By Judie Brown
- With wit, insight and fearless presentation of the facts, Saving Those Damned Catholics shreds the “seamless garment” most Catholic bishops use to cloak their sinfully silent consent to legalized abortion. Saving Those Damned Catholics will inspire you with the fortitude and the will to tackle this eternally urgent mission.
-Former Congressman Robert K. Dornan
- Judie Brown has never been one to sit back and let the devil have his way. Her great new work, Saving Those Damned Catholics, tells it like it is. I thank Judie for her forthright analysis of the state of the Church. She is not just telling us what is wrong ? she is giving us our marching orders.
-Father Tom Euteneuer, President, Human Life International
- We can always count on Judie Brown and American Life League to keep up with the shenanigans of the so-called “Catholic” leaders. Judie’s call for authentic leadership from the nation’s bishops and priests is key to rejuvenating the Catholic Church’s role in American life.
-Joe Scheidler, Director, Pro-Life Action League

Saving Those Damned Catholics presents Catholic teaching and exposes the problems created when various priests and bishops do not preach these teachings. By sharing personal stories of people who were misled, the book exposes the good, the bad and the ugly. The book passes judgment on no one; it is a testimony to the facts.
Saving Those Damned Catholics chronicles the reasons why the current mess within the Catholic Church is not something that should surprise anyone, whether Catholic, Protestant, or just curious. After all, as the story unfolds you will learn how a bureaucracy has replaced individual commitment; and how politics has become far too appealing to the majority of Catholic bishops. It is no surprise that Americans scoff at Catholic teachings on birth control, abortion and euthanasia. The statistics tell the tale: most Catholics don’t know what the Church teaches on these matters of life and death, and if they do, they choose to disagree and ? ho-hum ? the hierarchy moves on.
Saving Those Damned Catholics outlines the logic behind the most controversial teachings in the Church today, and exposes the arguments put forth by priests and bishops who clearly do not agree with some of these teachings themselves. Astounding as it may seem, there are reasons why federal funding has become more important than protecting innocent life; why popularity among the most liberal of politicians has trumped Pope Benedict XVI’s call to be good shepherds and, indeed, to be counter-cultural. There are reasons why homosexuals are still in the seminaries; and there are reasons why the vast majority of Catholics use birth control and condone abortion...[more].
Read an excerpt:
- Why do you suppose so many priests, including theologians and not a few bishops, fought against church teaching on birth control? Many of them said and did things in the early 1960s that lead Catholics to believe that Catholic teaching on sexual matters was old fashioned, outdated, and not to be taken seriously. The following examples give you a little taste of this contradiction...[more].
