WE APPLAUD RATZINGER

The Pope visits our hemisphere and things start popping. This is great!

Finally, we might get some resolution.

No person, including any politician, can support legal abortions and also be a member of the Roman Catholic Church. Politicians who support abortion are excommunicated

The Vatican is clarifying, saying that a politician who votes for a woman’s right to choose is not the subject of a formal Church proceeding that results in an official declaration of excommunication. Rather, they are saying that such a politician “excommunicates him or her self.”

I applaud the Pope’s public assertion of this rule.

By exposing his views, the Pope will draw the worldwide reaction that he and his dogma deserve.

There are millions of people who think of themselves as Catholics who support a woman’s right to choose abortion.

By kicking them out, the Roman Catholic Church will further diminish its ranks, and it’s influence.

The heat is on (U.S. presidential candidate Rudolph) Giuliani. Soon the spotlight will be turned on (House Speaker Nancy) Pelosi. Remember:

In order to be a Catholic, one must oppose all abortions, even in cases of rape or incest.

The Roman Catholic Church was created in the fourth century A.D. by the Roman Emperor Constantine. Before the founding of the Roman Catholic Church there were many Christians who were born, lived, and died, and went to heaven.

This will be true, also, after the fall of the Roman Catholic Church, an earthly institution with only one consistent policy—it has always exercised the preferential option for its own power, or as Pud would say, “for its own fat ass.”

The Christian leaders who decided to cast their lot with the power and might of the Roman Empire made a terrible mistake.

As the pre-Constantine believers demonstrate, one can be a good Christian and go to heaven without being a member of the Roman Catholic Church.

The world doesn’t need a Roman Church. The world doesn’t need a Catholic (hegemonic, imperialistic) Church. It would be interesting to see if the world could benefit from a truly Christian Church.
