I suspect that this is ultimately the way he will attack the Catholic Church (and, in passing, any orthodox Christian church). What Obama would really like to do is to force a schism so that there will be a “Patriotic Catholic Church” that will do everything progressives want: “marry” gays, “ordain” women, support abortion, etc.
He suspects, probably correctly, that this would be the larger segment of the schism, and that the small remnant faithful to Rome would be powerless and without support. In addition, the Patriotic Church would get all the property and resources, and the members of the Roman remnant would probably be deprived even of their civil rights. For the Church, it would be like facing Henry VIII all over again, or perhaps a combination of Henry VIII and Mao.
Probably nothing. Heck, they’d even let her have an abortion - abortion is regarded as a good thing for non-Muslims, since it reduces the number of infidels. It’s strictly forbidden for Muslim women, of course, but then, so is speaking in public, showing their faces, etc.

Enter “Knights of Columbus Hate Group” into a search engine and watch what comes up just from 2012 alone. There is a new Lesbian Senator who said she is out to get us. As is one of Obama’s Czars.
Georgetown will be ground zero for the “Patriotic Catholic Church”.
Ha I knew it was a hate group /bad sarc
Even "natural law" paves the way for non-Theistic moral standards.
so not the FOIA has a list of homosexuals?
Why not petition to have the Democrat Party declared a hate gourp and subject them to FBI investigation?
....Or the ACLU even. Just saying.
The attacking has begun.
No doubt about it.
Cool! I’m a member of a hate group within a hate group!
Let’s just have a war and get it over with.
The one White House Petition I would sign would be a Petition demanding that anyone who signs a White House Petition, debates a White House Petition, or is offended by someone elses White House Petition be executed.
ALL the Petitions from any source are meaningless, worthless, and irrelevant. All they do is give stupid people the illusion that they are doing something, which I think was the Administration’s intent when they set the whole thing up.
Okay, most the local readers here know where I stand on the errant theology of the RCC, but this is utterly ridiculous. The RCC is not a hate group and deserves to be left alone (except when it comes to doctrine).
Hey, in 20 years, we’ll have the pedos and the bestiality people and the necrophiliacs all getting “married” to the object of their lusts and there will be no disapproval, citizen.
So the Pope adheres to the teachings of the Catholic Church.
Who’d-a thunk it.
I've had a running 'battle' on the Facebook page of one of the women from our parish for the past couple of months, but frankly, I'm not going to bother, anymore. Her oldest son had considered becoming a priest. I sure hope he decides against it; we don't need anymore 'progressive' priests. We're already dealing with the mess they've made for the past 40 years. I'm not going to change her mind, and most of her other FB friends already share her opinion, and I don't think I'm gonna change their minds either. They all love 'fairness' more than the teachings of the Church, and they firmly believe the Church isn't following Jesus's teachings, because he never said anything specifically against homosexuality, or abortion, for that matter, so why should the Church teach against either of those issues. Oh, and Jesus didn't like weapons, which is why they think all guns should be banned.
Yeah, it has gotten THAT silly.
