Are you saying the Pope hasn't expressed opposition to the war in Iraq?
I'm saying he didn't "condemn the leader of the free world". He received him graciously and blessed America. He was opposed to the Iraqi war, he is a man of peace, and he didn't think all peaceful solutions had been exhausted. I disagree, but I respect his opinion.
This is true. However the liberal media ignored the positive aspects and focused on the fact that the Pope condemned the war in Iraq.
And as far as this issue goes, the Pope has sided with the leftists against George Bush.
He was opposed to the Iraqi war, he is a man of peace, and he didn't think all peaceful solutions had been exhausted. I disagree, but I respect his opinion.
I don't respect "his opinion" anymore than I agree with it. The idea that a so-called "man of peace" has the gall to oppose removing a mass murdering tyrant who was estimated to be killing 16,000 of his own people a year is sickening. To say the least.
George Bush could teach "his holiness" a thing or two when it comes to morality and the courage to stand up for common decency.
Hello, anybody home? I simply stated that some Catholics I've talked to (meaning they actually communicated to me one on one) believe that the Pope is a sinless man. There is no "hearsay" to that. Maybe you should try to comprehend what I'm writing before responding...better yet, don't respond at all! P.S. Just so you aren't confused any further, I did not say ALL CATHOLICS believe this, only SOME of them. Read this message SLOWLY and you'll do just fine.
For the sake of your mommy and daddy, I hope they didn't pay out of their own pockets for your juris doctorate, because they got ripped off. Truth be told, you're probably just another not too bright product of outcome based education, aren't you Billy.
hearsay (hîr´sâ´) noun
1.Information heard from another.
2.Law. Evidence based on the reports of others rather than the personal knowledge of a witness and therefore generally not admissible as testimony.
You really do have a serious comprehension problem!!! For the last time: Some Catholics that I've met have adopted, as part of their belief system, that "the Pope is a sinless man." I know that most Catholics do not adhere to this belief, nor do you or I. I simply stated that some do believe this way. Opinion is not "hearsay"...why can't you seem to understand the obvious difference? (If you don't understand, please find someone who can explain it to you!)
The problem, for you, Billy, is that I comprehend your ignorance quite well.
Dear Cunnilingus, No more posts after this you "worthless piece of liberal human debris, Catholic Pagan-Worshipping Maryologist"...I tried to explain simple grammar, the difference in "hearsay" and "opinion"...you still failed to comprehend any of the concepts...SO GET LOST...YOU FREAKIN' LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bump!
But of course!
