Repubs should only talk about the horrible economy and not answer questions from idiot interviewers trying to change the subject.

CINOs are killing us. Liberal Catholics in Name Only. They may not have gone to church in ten years but they still pretend to be Catholics. The left says that all Catholics are pro-abortion liberal because of a few stupid-lib CINOs like Piers the Airhead.

Fabian socialists are like little house dogs who stay in the house. They hump your ankle and look cute, and we let them. However, some think that letting pit bulls run around and do that is fine, ie. inviting Marxists, radicals, islamo pedophiles and what not.

Piers is a little house dog who will not be barking much when the sponzi scheme falls apart.

If the Catholic Church really stands for decency, it would kick Piers Morgan out in a very public, very humiliating manner! But the Catholic Church today is a eunich of its former self.

Sure is.

If you are baptized, you are a Catholic.

The Church is full of sinners and welcomes them and encourages them to lead a Christ-like life. Too many of us do not accept all of the tenets and teachings of the Catholic Church.

The Church has many that lead Christ-like lives and give a good example to others.

But judgment is left to God as he instructed us : Whoever is without sin may cast the first stone.

Pray for Morgan and others that they do not face the wrath of God on judgment day. I personally feel that many Catholics will not go to Heaven, yet I know that He is merciful.

I’m not familiar at all with Santorum, but this was an excellent introduction.

Catholics are not the only anti homosexual denomination..insofar as teachings.

I don’t see Assemblies of God or Seventh Day or real Southern Baptists going for it either

Mormons have done outreach I hear...how odd.

In the not too distant future conservatives will be accused of bigotry for not supporting bestiality. Homosexuals shouldn’t be persecuted for what they are, but homosexuality is at the very least tremendously abnormal. The human rectum was not designed to receive male organs. No one can deny that basic fact.

that's true, but it said the actions of a __ big·ot  noun a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion. So, the root of the world is intolerance of other beliefs, not prejudice per se.

What I meant was people use the word bigot or bigotry as a substitute for hatred, racism etc ... but in fact it does not mean that.

If on is calling someone a bigot because they do not agree with their position, then it is mirrored back on the accuser ... per the dictionary definition.

Not being a proponent of "gay marriage" now means a person is a hate filled bigot. And of course leftists are incapable of rational discourse, they have been for a long time. It's just that their masks are pretty much totally removed now. It will be very interesting to see what happens next. The left isn't finished yet.

loveliberty2: “He rebutted the charge of bigotry by pointing out that the view expressed by Morgan was, itself, bigotry.”

Well, I think you’re right. A bigot is someone who is intolerant of other views. Santorum did not attack Piers Morgan or even treat him poorly. People mistakenly think tolerance means acceptance. It does not.

Homosexuality is an abomination as well as a sin, but I try to be tolerant. Let’s just say I respect the right of other people to disagree with my viewpoint. I don’t try to silence them or treat them poorly simply because they don’t ascribe to my religious views. That’s tolerance.

Piers Morgan, on the other hand, is clearly an intolerant bigot. Have no doubt, he intended to harm Santorum. The left wants to silence Christians. If the left had its way, no true Christian would ever be elected to office.

MSF BU: “Sodomy and Christianity are not compatible, despite what Mr. Morgan asserts.”

True, but homosexuals are no worse than thieves, adulterers, or fornicators. Christ died for sodomites, too.

I just wanted to point out the flip side of your point. None of the above will ever see heaven, but repentance brings forgiveness and, ultimately, freedom (no one has to be a slave to their sinful nature). All anyone has to do is admit they were wrong and ask God to forgive them. What’s scripture say about that? Christ wipes the record clean. Thank God!
