MANIFESTO OF THE WPPFF/WILD TURKEYS/COALITION OF THE SANE

"The people Oscar Schindler saved were Jews. That is why George Felos mentioned a sandwich that no Jewish person could ask for in good conscience: a ham sandwich. The symbolism is obvious. [!?!] The New World Order planners are exacting revenge for a "wrong" Schindler committed in Satan's first attempt at global government."

Good grief.

Someone else who survived the 60's! You'll find that most everyone on this thread was escaping the lunacy. I haven't been called a Nazi on this forum yet, but I've been called a few other things. Glad to have you along for the ride. And I think this one isn't over yet.

[506trooper]

You too, though I must confess to seeing your posts in the months I lurked while over at LGF and other spots.

[tiamat]

LGF?

I think you might be thinking about another tiamat...

Or maybe I'm just being clueless?

[506trooper]

I haven't quite got to the stage of calling it lunacy yet, just emotionalism, but I'm close.

[lugsoul]

Yes. It is just so obvious.

Jesse doesn't eat the swine either, I'm told. It's the obvious connection.

[506trooper]

No, I was active at LGF among others while I was lurking here.

Had a chance to see many posts here before I signed up.

[lugsoul]

"I haven't quite got to the stage of calling it lunacy yet"

Did you read my post #3337?

[tiamat]

Ah!

Okay!

I'm Catholic, but I checked for the latest requirements - here they are:

Canonization is the process the Catholic Church uses to name a saint.

The process begins after the death of a Catholic whom people regard as holy.

The local bishop investigates the candidate's life and writings
for heroic virtue or martyrdom.

A panel of theologians at the Vatican evaluates the candidate.

After approval, the Pope proclaims the candidate 'venerable'.

The next step is beatification.

This requires evidence of one miracle (except in the case of martyrs).

Since the Catholic Church considers miracles to be proof
that the person is "in heaven" and can intercede for the faithful,
the miracle must take place after the candidate's death
and as a result of a specific petition to the candidate.

Only after one more miracle will the pope canonize the saint.

For the Catholic Church, the title of saint means
that the person lived a holy life, is "in heaven,"
and is to be honored by the universal Church.

Canonization does not "make" a person a saint;
it recognizes who is already one.

But the Sainthood investigation must originate within the candidates' diocese.

Whoooa! Glad I missed that one...Thorazine big gulp commin' right up...wanna super size that.

[lugsoul]

Yeah, a couple of days ago I thought being called a Nazi - by people who didn't think they were engaging in hyperbole - was bad. It is so far beyond that now...

[unbalanced but fair]

I don't mind the emotionalism on the Terri threads. But I was on a thread about dealing with feral cats and some one brought up Terri! It's like trying to get through an obstacle course.

[sodpoodle]

astonishing!

Love the collegiality

[malakhi]

Astonishing, indeed, that you felt the need to ping JR to that post.

There is absolutely nothing I've posted here that I do not stand behind 100%. If you don't like it, tough.

[sodpoodle]

You need a reality check.

[cyncooper]

I have the wrong equipment.

Intuition, common sense, life experience, good manners and an open mind.

Gosh, you've described me and almost every poster on this thread.

I fail to see any evidence that these attributes apply to you.

[unbalanced but fair]

So you're saying we share the power among our colleagues?

[sinkspur]

Terri Schiavo is not going to be canonized a saint.

She may be one, but the Catholic Church is not going to go through the formal process to recognize it.

[sodpoodle]

It's all about you isn't it? You cannot stand the competition in this forum. It must be your whole life.

I feel so sorry for you.

good night
