One last thing..Pope Benedict is calling for a REFORM of the UN etc...Every Catholic knows the UN holds many agendas contrary to the Catholic Church and has an anti-life agenda.

He says...

“In the face of the unrelenting growth of global interdependence, there is a strongly felt need, even in the midst of a global recession, FOR A REFORM OF THE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION and likewise of ECONOMIC INSTITUTIONS AND INTERNATIONAL FINANCE...

Pope Benedict is calling for a true family of diverse cultures, supporting one another in a spirit of solidarity, generosity and true freedom based on charity in truth and justice that upholds the common good. HE IS NOT CALLING FOR A SINGULAR POWER TO EXERCISE TOTAL CONTROL OVER EVERY ASPECT.

He says...

“IN ORDER NOT TO PRODUCE A DANGEROUS UNIVERSAL POWER OF TYRANNICAL NATURE, the goverance of globalization must be marked by SUBSIDIARITY, articulated into several layers and involving different levels that can work together. Globalization certainly requires authority, insofar as it poses the problem of a global common good that needs to be pursued. This authority, however must be organized in a subsidiary and stratified way, IF IT IS NOT TO INFRINGE UPON FREEDOM...”

Did you even read the encyclical?

Ratzinger's "reform of the U.N." is to strengthen the U.N.

Yeesh. What hope is there for this republic if "conservative" Roman Catholics don't see the trainwreck heading straight for this country?

Now what he says is beyond frightening....it looks like the pope is completely on board for what will one day be a world governance. Though he has mingled in with his statements enough to make his remark appealing to the uninformed and feel good crowd, nevertheless his statementsis strongly supportive of world governance.
