Dear AppyPappy,

"I don't want to hear the Catholics condemn divorce ever again."

We'd be happy not to. However, it is Jesus who does the condemning.

But if I may ask, why the hostility?

Thanks for your input on the question.

BTW, I'm to see you post anything remotely absurd.

Here's an earlier article regarding Daschle...it's starting...

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/895800/posts

...This year, on January 16, Bishop Carlson received additional ammunition for his discussions with Daschle when Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger's office, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, issued in Rome a "Doctrinal Note" on Catholics in political life. "A well-formed Christian conscience," the note declared, "does not permit one to vote for a political program or an individual law which contradicts the fundamental contents of faith and morals."

The Doctrinal Note marks at least the beginning of the end of the Vatican's toleration of what the pope's biographer George Weigel has called "Cuomoism" in the American Church: the effort to finesse abortion by declaring oneself personally opposed but politically supportive of laws allowing abortion. Catholics have a "duty to be morally coherent," the Doctrinal Note declares, and the Catholic fight on the life issues--abortion, euthanasia, and cloning--is not some merely prudential question, to be decided by political give and take. The Catholic Church doesn't take political positions--except when politics intrudes into something, like the right to life, that ought to be beyond the power of politicians.

That was a divorce. They just call it something different.

So your going to Rome then? great!

Possibly, if I can afford to accompany Tim Chichester when the time comes. We're working on getting the petition as well as this Canon Law change request (for which there is ample precedent) directly to the Pope:

WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs request the following relief: That Pope John Paul II, Supreme Pontiff of the Catholic Church take jurisdiction of this petition. Part 1 That Canon 1398 be changed to read: "A person who willfully enables an abortion or euthanization incurs a latae sententiae excommunication. An elected or appointed official who willfully votes for legislation enabling abortion, euthanasia or same-sex unions, or who publicly propagandizes for or promotes abortion, euthanasia or same-sex unions, incurs a latae sententiae excommunication. Canon 915 shall be applied to such public individuals."

It would be howlingly absurd to let Kerry slither into the White House WITHOUT being disciplined in some way for his culture of death policies. Kerry promotes grave evil shamelessly. As do his fellow liberals. Bishops, called to represent Christ, MUST defend innocent life. Even if that requires taking heat from the liberal media and missing out on a few celebrity parties and photo-ops. Catholic support for abortion must end. Either those promoting the grievous crime must repent and reform or...they must leave.

Kerry is really quite arrogant and pompous. There is something quite demonic about that. Either he is spiritually retarded or he himself is evil.

You'll have to plug your ears, then.

You'll also have to redact your Bible. But that's your problem, not mine.

Jack,

Talk about the "enemy within"! I knew he was a rat but this is a valuable reference I had not seen!

It's very sad how a combat hero can sink so very low.

Thanks!

With two bastard children from his first marriage that wasn't a marriage in the eyes of the church.

They annulled a marriage that produced children?

Wow. The Church has changed from when I took religion class. How did they justify that?

Turns out Kerry requested an annulment in '97 and it was denied, or more likely it didn't even get to the stage where it would be denied.

There is nothing wrong with him going to Mass,in fact,that is the right thing to do.

Maybe. But if he disbelieves so much Catholic teaching, one wonders where he stands on other matters of doctrine, whether he can recite the Creed in good faith, etc. That much, at least, is between Kerry, God, and his priest/confessor.

Cuomoism. Sounds creepy. Is Cuomo still slithering around?

I doubt very much if Kerry will care whether he is denied communion. He doesn't seem like a very religious man, anyway. The man has no deep convictions of any kind, much like Clinton, the only thing that he believes in is himself.
