Geron, "All" self-publicizing Catholics don't believe in Catholicism. Everybody knows that.

There are plenty of people who are comprehensively opposed to Catholic faith and morals, who will still call themselves Catholic for the rhetorical torque and political leverage it gives them.

But Houghtom M's point is that only the Catholic Church opposes contraceptive acts per se --- and by the way, that means that only the Catholic Church upholds the historic Christian sexual morality which ALL Christians upheld until 1930. That was when, starting with the Anglicans, Christian groups started to weaken and then give way and conform to a de-Christianized contraceptive culture, calling acceptable what 1900 years of Chriestianity had always called unacceptable.

Pelosi, Kennedy, Sebelius. In what sense do they represent Catholicism?

They are to Catholicism as antimatter is to matter.

Which made the Kennedy funeral such a mockery. Like a requium mass for a Mafia boss.
