'Evils ignored'

A front-page PD article Nov. 12 says, "Catholic bishops vote strict sex rules." No divorce, sex only in marriage, no contraceptives, no abortion, no homosexual activity, no birth control. No communion for divorced Catholics, etc.

Yet the bishops didn't bother to condemn the evils of drinking, smoking and gambling. We wonder why?
