It’s a sign of the times that this turned into some kind of women’s rights issue, and a clever ploy by the media which is now so incredibly propagandist on behalf of “the one”.
The Church was follwing it edict, as it has since the beginning. They instigated nothing, changed nothing and complained about nothing. Then, the govenment came along and kicked in thier front door. If there is controversy, it should be that the government picked a fight with the church, not the other way around.
As a former Catholic myself, I’m not surprised. The church has been cozying up to the democrats for too long. Overlooking the abortion platform, and standing silently as the democrats used them as props for election and re-election. I guess they thought they would be eaten last.
As long as Pelosi, Kerry, the Kennedy’s and so many others are allowed to claim Catholism without so much as a peep from the Pope or the rest of the church’s hierchy, I will not claim Catholisism. The church of my childhood left me for the politics of the present. I hope they enjoy the newest members of thier dwindling flock, while I’ll pray that Jesus can forgive the Pope and the rest of the church for what it has become.
The core of every evil in the world, and our society is Government.
Without exception. Even if you look into the Federal Reserve. The Government’s Treasury (Ran by Ron Paul) makes a TON of revenue from the Fed by selling worthless slips of green paper to the reserve at face value. Thus, printing less $1 bills and more $100 bills makes the government rich.
The government is the heart of simply every problem.
