Today marks the close of the 2023 assembly of the Association of U.S. Catholic Priests — AUSCP for short. The organization has routinely given a platform to people who reject Church teaching and natural law. In today’s episode of The Download, reporter Nick Wylie showcases a group of Catholics praying outside the AUSCP’s meeting in reparation for the priests’ dissent. Hosts Bradley Eli, Simon Rafe, Christine Niles and Rodney Pelletier talk about how the AUSCP reflects broader problems in the Church.
