What is Cardinal Dolan Up To?

I don’t know why so much is being made of this. I remember Al Gore, who was a well known pro-abort, along with then Candidate Bush give speeches at the Al Smith Dinner. Romney and Obama aren’t being paid, they’re not receiving any awards. I really don’t see the big deal. I hope the rich Catholics boo the both of them, but boo Obama more. Keep the bar open and they will. ;)

"The catholic church has been advocating for universal healthcare for nearly a hundred years!"

First, was it an intentional act of disrespect to use lower case "C"s on catholic and church when the original quote had them capitalized?

I would like to hear your reasoning on why you believe a the Church's position that everyone have access to affordable healthcare is a bad thing? Do you not want access to healthcare you can afford, and if not you and your family, who do you want to exclude?

Peace be with you

“”The catholic church has been advocating for universal healthcare for nearly a hundred years!””

You don’t seem to realize Catholic teaching at all-without the Catholic Church there would be no ethical health care system in the world to treat sick people.

You seem to advocate that hospitals should turn people away in a socialistic manor of appointed man(not the laws of God) making decisions of pseudo and demonic psychological profiling to decide who is really sick and who is not.Thus, making man the god of deciding who is treated in hospitals and who lives and dies.

It’s becoming clear that you might be the socialist, even though you might not realize what you’re writing

Do not make this thread "about" individual Freepers. That is also a form of "making it personal."

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

A lot of people do not realize that the Catholic Church founded hospitals in Europe and then in the United States. We are the educators in this sense of putting forth facts.

"A lot of people do not realize that the Catholic Church founded hospitals in Europe and then in the United States."

A lot of people still get everything they know from "The Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk".

Peace be with you

But what I want to know is Cardinal Dolan giving Holy Communion to that monkey-faced, baby murdering, sodomite-loving Andrew Cuomo? Cuomo spits in the face of the Catholic Church and all it’s teachings.
