Nuns are comparing Obama’s ideology to that of dictatorial China and Myanmar.

Nuns

Some of these people in Washington want Christianity gone. They hate us.

But Muslims are Exempt.

Ask yourself why.

The democrat party has given the Catholic church no choice. It must “choose” between violating its principles and closing up shop.

That is the highest form of sacrament for the democrat party. They loathe the Catholic church because it opposes abortion and gay “marriage.” But above all, democrats are afraid of stirring up the angry fang-toothed feminazis.

“....Ask yourself why...”

We all know why. The unwashed masses cannot see it yet, but they will eventually (it will be too late) once the communists disarm the country so they can start their massive killing campaigns.

After the French revolution (which the nuns make reference to), Catholic clergy were made employees of the government.

You know very well Muslims watch out for their poor and aged.

They give them begging bowls and allow them to set up in the middle of a busy thoroughfare.

I've thought for a while now that gay “marriage” boiled down to $$$ (benefits) and eventually forcing Catholic charities to treat “gay” couples the same as hetero married couples in adoptions. I think it's their end game...and it will drive the church out of the adoption biz in the US.

We are living in dark times and it looks to be picking up speed. Decline is an ugly thing. We, in America, have been spoiled....most don't think decline “can happen” here. Wrong.

This is true. With the 1790 Civil Constitution the anti-clerical politicians tried to make the Catholic Church a subordinate arm of the secular French government. Most resisted. Catholic priests were brutally suppressed through mass imprisonment and executions by drowning.

Dictatorships particularly resent Catholic (or other religions') schools, hospitals, and charities because they want everyone to be dependent on the State alone. They can't tolerate voluntary intermediate institutions.

My father is being cared for by Little Sisters of the Poor here in Chicago. I visit most everyday. To say this isn’t a religious institution is absurd. There’s crosses on the walls, statues and pictures of Jesus, Mary and the saints. There is a chapel where mass is said twice a day...grace is said before every meal. Why would this place have anything to do with buying condoms? Who would think this is a good idea?

The Catholic church needs to start excommunicating members like Nacy Pelosi and Joe Biden.

I have been reading in here for months that they are exempt. Have you a way to find out for sure?

It appears that it started as an email that went viral in 2010.
