The She-Pope of Carnegie Mellon (The war against the Catholic Church on sexuality has a new heroine)
American Thinker ^ | 05/02/2013 | Jeannie DeAngelis

The war against the Catholic Church's teachings on sexuality has a new heroine. Move over, Sandra Fluke.

In the run-up to the 2012 election, the Georgetown Law School grad Fluke brought honor to the Democratic Party by exposing an archaic patriarchal religious institution and highlighting the need for unlimited free birth control for every college girl in America. In liberal circles there were none braver or more committed to the contraceptive cause than Sandra Kay Fluke. In the eyes of many Democrats, this was a woman one votive shy of being officially canonized as the patron saint of free birth control.

For a time Sandra Fluke remained the titular head of the contraceptive crusade. That was until the Carnegie Mellon University art parade, where a nameless woman silently conveyed a message about condoms, Catholics, and freedom of creative expression in a way that far over-shadowed even the best efforts of Sandra Fluke.

Surely with Sandra's heroism as her foundational inspiration, this particular female student decided to further drive home the free birth control/anti-papist message by exposing the lower half of her body, complete with her pubic topiary fashioned into the shape of a crucifix. Dressed like the Holy Father from the waist up, the faux pope took her message to the art parade where she passed out condoms like a priest distributing communion wafers.

While some were shocked by the sacrilegious demonstration, one student by the name of Ivy Kristove told Pittsburgh NewsRadio 1020 KDKA that the naked pope with exposed crucifix was "all in good fun and... not meant to harm anyone." Bishop David Zubik of the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh begged to differ, and was just as insulted by the pornographic pope impersonator as Sandra Fluke was when Rush Limbaugh called her a "slut" for demanding free contraceptives.

I would hate to be a LIB on Judgement Day. It’s going to be tough enough. Imagine this LIB getting judged.

I still think it would be hilarious to refer to this woman as having “dressed up as Mohammed’s child bride, but half naked, to hand out condoms.”

This is because there are many “low information” Muslims, who would instantly go into the screaming outrage and death threat mode when they read it, without knowing the real story.

Which would likely be a really good lesson to these Catholic haters, who think they can be nasty bullies without repercussions or risk.

it is very easy, and safe, for these childish cowards to mock and insult someone who turns the other cheek...

Not so easy when the object of your disdain reacts violently will kill you give the opportunity...

I live in Pittsburgh area. I have to keep asking, why hasn’t the City of Pgh filed indecency charges against the “Pope” Womyn? Las time I looked, CMU is located within the City of Pittsburgh, which does in fact have public decency/lewd behavior laws.

You know the obvious answer...the place is run by Democrats who are afraid to run afoul of the Sandra Fluke crowd.

From the legal standpoint, we are still on this slippery slope that began during the Vietnam War when courts began redefining ACTS of protest as "speech". If she tried to defend herself with such a claim I'm not convinced that she would not ultimately win. And if this ever resulted in a SCOTUS ruling that naked protest is speech, we could end up like Canada where such a ruling was made. The end result being you become totally powerless to regulate strip bars.

Also very interesting that this story and the photos have been bouncing around town all week, and yet this woman REMAINS NAMELESS!!!

This is the POS that shaved her pubic hair to the shape of a cross and paraded naked from the waist down right? And we have to take these people seriously?
