Just goes to show how undescerning Catholics are. They are undiscerning in their politics, as well as doctrine. The doctrinal deception is the reason for their political deception. When you do not understand and know the real Christ of Scripture, the foundation is faulty. According to Jesus, it’s built on sand instead of rock.

"When you do not understand and know the real Christ of Scripture, the foundation is faulty."

So where exactly did you study the doctrines of the Catholic Church to qualify you to make a blanket statement like that?

ROTFLMAO Oh yeah, baby.

Like the vast majority of non-Catholic folks who claim to be Christian, the Catholics should stop worrying about contraception, abortion, and other forms of infanticide so they can focus on making money and collecting "Precious Moments" ceramics!!.

If they had true discernment they could even copy the Methodists, Presbyterians, many Baptists, Episcopalians, loads of Independent non-denominationals of all sorts, as well as all the other tens of thousands of groups who claim to have true discernment, and start to ordain women and queers to preside over the marriage of one queer to another. Why, ever since Jim & Tammy were the big deal "everyone knows" that Jesus doesn't want you to be horny so what's the issue with this contraception stuff anyway?

It's always a bit funny to see an optometrist with a beam hanging out of their eye lecture others about eye care but in this case it cause for a belly laugh.

Were these viters also undiscerning?

(These are old numbers showing how favor with Obama has deteriorated.)

50 percent of Catholics (Catholics make up about 22 percent of the U.S. population.) approve of his presidency, down from 67 percent in his first six months in office.
DOWN 17 POINTS
 
among non-Catholic Christians, who make up 55 percent of the U.S. population, had fallen from 58 percent to 43 percent.
DOWN 15 POINTS
 
Mormon respondents, who represent about two percent of U.S. adults, fell from 43 percent to 26 percent
DOWN 17 POINTS
 
About 78 percent of Muslim respondents approved of the Obama presidency, down eight percentage points from when the question was first asked.  (86)
DOWN 8 POINTS
 
atheists, agnostics, and members of other non-Christian religions, who comprise about 13 percent of the U.S. population -- While about 75 percent of these respondents approved of President Obama at the start of his term, their approval declined to about 64 percent.
DOWN 11 POINTS
 
Jews were the religious group third likeliest to approve of President Obama, giving him 61 percent approval. This too is a decline: in January-June 2009, their approval rating of the president was 77 percent.
DOWN 16 POINTS
 
Overall, 48 percent of Americans approve of President Obama’s job, down from 63 percent in the first months of his presidency. Gallup claims that its survey of over 276,000 adults claims an overall margin of error of plus or minus one percent.
DOWN 15 POINTS

--> yes, that's the various beliefs outside of orthodoxy --> various "evang" groups/cults have broken up so quickly and split up over and over agian, they are adequate proof that they are built on sand....

In contract orthdoxy continues, thanks to God's grace --> the Catholic/Orthodox/Oriental Church continues, while the chaff in the non-Apostolic Church just dissipate over and over
