Pope Benedict isn’t going to fall for this.

I know I don’t, and Pope Benedict is a better Catholic than me.

Barry lies even before he sees the Pope. I hope somebody tells Pope Benedict to stay about 20 feet away from Barry. A lightening strike seems very probable.

Dear God, please bless America.

Yup. Everything had a profound effect on him. But his minster? Not so much, according to this congenital liar.

And the sycophants still swoon at the mention of his name.

Do you suppose he’s “deeply concerned?”

I would be if I was the Pope. Ugly’s only skin deep, but evil goes all the way to the bone.

Jesuits with an agenda.

It's like the Inquisition, just not as painful.

“Social Justice” - buzz phrase for progressives when dealing with education, economics, social consciousness and reform. Many believe in a “social gospel” under which “Christians ought to focus on salvation in this life in the form of social goods achieved through the state” (Walter Rauschenbusch, quoted in the introduction to American Progressivism).

Which is why this would be the ONLY thing that attracts Obama to the Catholic church.

Catholic influence on Obama?

With Obama, "From the Womb to the Tomb" has a double meaning. And, social justice has nothing to do with either one.

profound influence can also mean in a bad way.

He is using his words again to try and fool the sheep.

Give me a break - he's as “Catholic” as Satan.

He's trying to rally the leftist Catholics. Yes, some Catholic do believe in “social justice”.

Stealing and/or enslaving people is a sin. Whether it be individuals, groups or governments.
