The whole Ireland issue seems to be missing from this thread, British loyal protestants verses Irish national Catholics. That hotbed still simmers, if somewhat beneath the surface.

The hostility that many British are voicing toward Pope Benedict XVI has shocked church officials in Rome as they prepare for the first formal state visit to Great Britain by a reigning pontiff.

Oh really. Between placing the entire kingdom under interdict until King John agreed to turn it over to "Peter and Paul," opposition to the Magna Carta, the Avignon Papacy, the Babylonian Captivity, and the Reformation, I can't understand how this could have slipped under the Vatican's radar for, oh, 800 years or so.

God has no place in a Socialist society. The people exepect the government to provide for their every need, thus crowding out God’s blessings.

See? Now if you had just let Hank divorce Cathy back in 1525 then you wouldn’t be facing such hostility.

Thing that amazes me how certain Christians on this forum trumpet how “holier” they are and how ‘Christian’ they are and yet heap abuse upon abuse on the Pope and yet remind me of people who even if they recognized the injustice, remained ‘silent’ and ‘complicit’ when another Man walked forward to be pilloried by ‘public opinion’, judged a wicked sinner, even put to death for crimes He did not commit. . .

I will say this though, Satan knows his true enemy and brings all his wiles to bear on our Holy Father and the Church.

I have no idea what your talking about. I never said anything bad about the pope.
