Former President Carter Blasts Catholic Teaching on Women’s Ordination
Catholic Culture ^ | 3/26/14

Posted on 03/26/2014 6:00:24 AM PDT by marshmallow

In an interview with National Public Radio, former President Jimmy Carter said that Catholic teaching on women’s ordination has led to the abuse of women throughout the world.

“The fact that the Catholic Church, for instance, prohibits women from serving as priests or even deacons gives a kind of a permission to male people all over the world, that well, if God thinks that women are inferior, I’ll treat them as inferiors,” said Carter. “If she’s my wife, I can abuse her with impunity, or if I'm an employer, I can pay my female employees less salary.”

Jimmah must be feeling nearly irrelevant - as he actually is - to produce this shopworn socialist tripe.

Jimmy has complained that Obama never calls him to ask his advice. Maybe he thinks trashing the Catholic Church will make Obama like him.

Did Carter ever condemn Muslim women and child sex slavery?

UK: Child Sex Slavery, Multiculturalism and Islam

Gatestone Institute. ^ | March 24, 2014 | Soeren Kern

http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/4226/uk-child-sex-slavery

Child-protection have almost entirely failed in their job to protect vulnerable children. From a fear of being called ‘racist,’ police forces across the country have buried the evidence.... Political correctness would be used to make sure that people did not speak about this phenomenon.” — from Easy Meat: Multiculturalism, Islam and Child Sex Slavery..

“[A Safeguarding Children Board stated that, ‘great care will be taken in drafting…this report to ensure that its findings embrace Rotherham’s qualities of diversity. It is imperative that discussions of a wider cultural phenomenon are avoided.’” — from Easy Meat: Multiculturalism, Islam and Child Sex Slavery

British authorities enforcing political correctness have allowed Muslim paedophile gangs to sexually abuse children with impunity for more than two decades, according to a comprehensive new study that examines the harrowing epidemic of child grooming in towns and cities across Britain.

The meticulously documented report, entitled, “Easy Meat: Multiculturalism, Islam and Child Sex Slavery,” shows how officials in England and Wales were aware of rampant child grooming—the process by which sexual predators befriend and build trust with children in order to prepare them for abuse—by Muslim gangs since at least 1988.

Rather than taking steps to protect British children, however, police, social workers, teachers, neighbors, politicians and the media deliberately downplayed the severity of the crimes perpetrated by the grooming gangs in order to avoid being accused of “Islamophobia” or racism.

The conspiracy of silence was not broken until November 2010, when it was leaked that police in Derbyshire had carried out an undercover investigation—dubbed Operation Retriever—and arrested 13 members of a Muslim gang for grooming up to 100 underage girls for sex.

J.C is said to have been a born again Christian, does being born again cause a man to lie,steal and disregard and disrespect every thing the Bible says?

Romans 3
4 let God be true, but every man a liar;

Men are liars and that is the best argument for what is called sola scriptura

And even then it can be and is twisted around to involve nothing more than words and ritual.

1John 3:18
My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

Some people need to fade into the background. Jimmy Carter is exhibit #1. I guess he serves one good purpose: to show people that wisdom doesn’t automatically come with age. Jimmy has gone from being a fool to being an old fool.

the peanut farmer should stick to his nuts and remember, keep silent and be thought a fool rather than speak and prove that you are one.

This is the same @$$ hat whose mother said: "When I look at my children I think to myself; Lillian you should have stayed a virgin."

I agree with her.

This creature, Jimmy, is a disgrace. He knows nothing about the Catholic Church, yet feels as though he has moral authority to talk about its teachings and doctrine?

What a piece of work.

Not only is he an old fool, but now he is an old fool with a wide audience. It makes you wish that he would take up some other hobby, like sky diving.

Believers need to get something straight: “Come out from among them, be ye separate. Touch no unclean thing and I will receive you”. The Father is not putting on a show for the unbelieving world; He is holding them under punishment until the day of His wrath.

Paul’s comments about women preachers were blatantly anti: he dared to suggest that they were disqualified because it was EVE who was deceived by the serpent. Far from being a personal taste, he reasons from the utter reality of the Fall.

Not in line with the times? Tough! Important to note that his comments were addressed to believers in Christ, not worldlings beholden to a satanic idea of “fairness”.

Carter’s enduring need to present some kinder version of Truth to unbelievers is not indicative of Wisdom.

“Paul’s comments about women preachers were blatantly anti: he dared to suggest that they were disqualified because it was EVE who was deceived by the serpent.”

Jesus never chose Paul as an Apostle (despite many referring to him as one); people who use Paul’s writings to discredit the Church should look at the source.

“Go, for he is a chosen instrument of Mine, to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel; for I will show him how much he must suffer for My name’s sake.” Acts 9

Yes, Jesus did chose Paul as an apostle. Are you using the Jefferson Bible, or your own special cut-and-paste version?
