This kind of stuff makes me want to pull my hair out. The catholic bishops are totally corrupted by the hundreds of millions of dollars their various charities get in the form of Federal grants— and that is not even counting the hospitals!

Had it not been for their lust to get billions more through the federalization of healthcare Obamacare would never have passed. It is poetic justice that they will now have to pay for Slut Fluke’s birth control.

Until they abandon “catholic social teaching” (just a cover for more big government) and stop living off taxpayer dollars, it is foolhardy to think of them as anything but the faintest of allies.

Well said!

I believe it is a mistake to ever consider RC's allies of any degree. The more accurate view is they are co-belligerents on some social issues. They could not produce a simple majority for Romney and in the swing states where they are a higher % of the vote this is a disaster.

One result of this election is it puts to bed that there really is a "Catholic vote". The leadership of this church made it pretty clear they did not support obama and his policies, but the members of this church voted otherwise. As far as the "social teaching" goes that won't change. They are liberal at the core.

Evangelicals will be better served to try and convert RC's. The USA will not recover from this socialist wave until traditional values are no longer considered passe. The RC's have made it clear that they say one thing and do another when it counts.

I think your information is incorrect. Are you getting it from a pamplet? From a preacher or church that hates Catholcism?

What happens to people who speak ill of others?

I remember Christ not liking that!
