It’s not about money. It’s about repentance.
Do you know for sure that the Kennedys who have died, did not repent on their death bed?
Then who are we to judge?
I’m totally against abortion, but we cannot judge other people — that’s God’s job.

I wouldn’t mind losing Pelosi.
What kind of conversation would we have in Heaven?
“Sure, I betrayed the US and worked tirelessly so that millions of babies could be killed in the womb, but thank goodness I went to Mass and Confession.”

OK, I get that, political favors. And that would be quite public. What political favors did SanFranNan, for instance, ever do for the Catholic Church? All I can think of in her lregilsative or policy history, are things disastrously detrimental to the Church. Has Pelosi ever done anything protective of the Church’s liberty or well-being?

I hate to say it but given her cozy relationship with queers she probably has plenty of leverage over some people who don’t want “outed”. If someone would excommunicate her she might get mad and spill the beans which in the long run would be the best thing that could happen.

Im totally against abortion, but we cannot judge other people thats Gods job.
G-d, Himself is the only Judge....capital 'J' Judge, as in that's 1 of his jobs it's 1 of his heavenly titles.
But G-d is not the only one who CAN judge.
Those who keep all of His Commandments, those who are righteous in His Word can judge:
Zechariah 3:7-
This is what the LORD of Hosts says: If you walk in My ways and keep My instructions, you will both judge My house and take care of My courts; I will also grant you access among these who are standing here."
Ezra 7:25-
And you, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God that is in your hand, appoint magistrates and judges who may judge all the people in the province Beyond the River, all such as know the laws of your God. And those who do not know them, you shall teach.
1 Kings 3:9-10-
"So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours? The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this wisdom."
G-d does impart the authority for the righteous man (one who keep all of His Written Word) to judge, examine, discern, ask, question, contend, and determine over the unrighteous (those who keep none of His Written Word).....and at many times G-d has commanded man to do so.

Brent, a righteous human can only judge what he can know, and that means externalities: what a person says (word), their expressed thoughts (ideas they've revealed), and what they do (deeds). There are judge-able because they are discernable.
Therefore we may --- and sometimes, must--- judge words as to whether they are true or false, ideas as right or wrong, deeds as good or evil.
What we cannot judge are interior things: another person's inner disposition, and the destiny of his soul. This, precisely, is God's job alone.
Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is alive and active... it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7 "Man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart." |
These are the things we must not judge; to these Jesus refers, when He says "Judge not."

I have no doubt that Nasty Nan’s gay activist allies, especially, are capable of unleashing a torrent of lawsuits and scandals -— true and false -— against churchmen. And you’re right: bring it on. In the long run, full disclosure would be the best thing that could happen. I regret only that just and innocent men will undoubtedly be shamed, slammed, and slimed, along with the guilty.

God is the Judge, but we are made in his image. We judge according to our lesser lights over our lesser responsibilities.
If you refuse to judge correcting and rightly, then you fall into sin.
