Double Standard Alert

How would the liberal press react if this had been done against a Jewish religious icon by a right wing group?

When a left wing group does wrong, it's just fun. If a right wing group does wrong, the press screams like a stuck pig.

The sisters of perpetual indulgence drove by on a float with the sign, " Weapons of Ass Destruction," with characters dressed as the pope and a cardinal. The character dressed up as the pope was enclosed in a cage.

How do we write to the Vatican to tell them what is going on?

One of the most poignant (repeating) scenes in The GULAG Archipelago is the way, after some terrible abuse, a poor zek would sigh and say, "If only Stalin knew...."

How do you tell the Vatican?

They know.

[aspiring.hillbilly]

Sodam and Gammorahh west,,,pure homocrap filth and not surprising a priest wallows in it in pubic....

[Conservative til I die]

Do you call that an overreaction? I would not associate with any denomination that does not follow the Bible.

Sounds to me like you have bigger issues and you're just using this one diocese as an excuse to grind the ax.

Gee, how did I know.

You may now commence dumping megabytes of Jack Chick and Dave Hunt quotes on the forum.

[Conservative til I die]

Fr. Judge has been dead for two years.

[Clemenza]

Fr. Judge has been dead for two years.

Father Judge died in the WTC disaster. I was thinking of another priest who was friends with Rudy since High School and was recently accused of "improprieties."

[Clemenza]

I was thinking of this guy:

[txzman]

"I asked Healy, "can there be any justification for a Catholic priest and his parish to participate in a blatantly pornographic public display? "

Sure, if the Bible means nothing to you.

Bump and ping

Scripter will be off line occasionally between now and the middle of September. I've agreed to help him out by running his homosexual agenda ping list.

Homosexual Agenda: Categorical Index of Links

Homosexual Agenda Index (bump list)

A simple freepmail is all it takes to subscribe to or unsubscribe from scripter's homosexual agenda ping list. If you wish to be added to the list in scripter's absence, please FReepmail me.

[RightOnline]

That "thing" isn't even human.......and it wants "rights"???

[SuziQ]

I would say it is clearly time to get out of the Catholic church.

Why should WE leave? We're not the ones doing wrong?! Believe me, most of those supporting this kind of behavior are getting old and gray and are dying out. We just have to work on putting folks in their place who can teach the new generation the RIGHT things. The Pope is working on that right now with the new crop of Bishops that are being appointed. It will take a while to clear out the Chanceries of the 60's leftovers, but I have Faith that it will get done.

[Cicero]

Good. I didn't catch the irony, since the rest of the statement was straightforward, and I'm glad to learn it was there.

[fatima]

Bump,when you get this freepmail me-

[Salvation]

Thank you, I just didn't want to go that deep this morning!

[Delphinium]

I have never heard of Jack Chick and Dave Hunt? What quotes are you talking about?

Yes, I might have a bigger issue. Its not just the Catholic church, but many others. I have never been associated with the Catholic church. For years I have known of homosexual, and child molesting nuns, and priests.It bugs me that they get to remain priests, and nuns while practicing what the Bible clearly calls sin. I would not be associated with any Bible professing church that allows this sinful behavior in the leadership.

I love Catholics and especially appreciate the pro-life stand in the church.

you're just using this one diocese as an excuse to grind the ax.

What are you talking about? Isn't this happening all over the country? I do watch the news, and read articles regularly on FR.

[Antoninus]

You will never, not in your lifetime or my lifetime get a governor in Californica that refuses to bless homosexuality. Fact.

All it would take is one serious candidate to have the cojones to take a strong public stand against the homos and he or she would be in like flint. And further more, that candidate would get a majority of the Hispanic and Black vote. Fact.

[Happy2BMe]

Nope. The society has degraded too far - it won't bear an antihomosexual government.

Fact.

[Antoninus]

They know.

So you're equating the Pope to Stalin, eh? Your statement is scurrilous, ill-informed, and beneath contempt.

[Delphinium]

Why should WE leave?

By staying aren't you tolerating behavior that is wrong? This has gone on for years. And why didn't the Pope take a clear stand against this behavior, and the men doing it?

I am not a Catholic, and I don't mean to be hurtful to you that are. I wasn't aware that you had any power to work towards getting these perverts thrown out, or new men in. What has the Pope done so far to rid the church of this scourge? Maybe as a non-Catholic I only see the news, and miss something that only Catholics know? Please set me straight.
