Your thoughts are in line with mine. Most of the Catholic haters are pro-Rat already, but this may tip some others toward Kerry as well.

[bitt]

wow, you are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo right!

that is SICK!!!!

[tiki]

You're right about that. I know 2 rabid atheists and they think SKerry is the greatest. The only good thing is, I know a lot of people and these are the only atheists I know.

Kerry's normal church (if you can call it that) is the Paulist Center -- owned and operated by the Paulists, and not under O'Malley's direct control -- calls itself on its website "a worship community in the Roman Catholic tradition," whatever that means.

Religious orders are absolutely subject to the local Bishop. They operate in his territory at his pleasure. O'Malley could shut the place tomorrow if he wanted.

"Absolutely subject"? I really think you're far too optimistic here about the authority of the bishop. Under current law in the USA, bishops have "authority" only over those who accept it.

Picture O'Malley saying that the Paulists no longer have faculties in his archdiocese. I really don't think that would stop them -- and I would bet they'd love the chance to bloviate to the media. The Paulist Center is on Beacon Hill -- home of many other rich and influential people besides Kerry.

I assume the Paulists own the property (or at least have a valid lease), and so there's no civil grounds on which O'Malley could throw them out. It's been many a century since bishops could raise private armies and do things directly. Which side do you think the media would be on?

In practical terms, I really don't think there's anything O'Malley can do. I hope and pray he's looking behind the the scenes (I hear that's his preferred tactic) for a way to deal with this; I just don't know what way that might be.

Do pray for him.

THE LATEST HEADLINES


DE FIDE is a non-profit association founded specifically to use every available means of Canon Law to defend the Faith and Church from Heresy. To accomplish its mission, DE FIDE initiates lawsuits in Ecclesiastical Court to protect the rights of the faithful and unbaptized. The Association consists of a consortium of premier Canon Law experts around the world who work in tandem to achieve this goal.

On 14 June 2004 DE FIDE filed its first Libellus Litis (Bill of Complaint) in the Ecclesiastical Court of the Archdiocese of Boston. The Criminal Complaint alleges that United States Senator JOHN F. KERRY, as a baptized Catholic, has committed a court-martial offense under Canon Law by professing the Right-to-Murder heresy, commonly known as the "Right to Choose" doctrine.

The Complaint is currently under review by the Archdiocese of Boston. Once accepted, the arguments and evidence will be considered by a collegiate panel of three judges nominated to evaluate the merits of the case. When created, the Court will summon Defendant KERRY to trial for the presentation of any arguments the Defense may attempt to invoke.

As this criminal case is unprecedented both historically and procedurally under the new Code of Canon Law of 1983, all Catholic and Protestant Christians, even the non-baptized, may, and are invited to join this class-action suit.

It is hoped that the faithful and public at large will support the efforts of DE FIDE by participating in the action and contributing to the State of California Tax-Exempt Association.

The words De Fide are Latin for Of the Faith. As a Dogma, or definitive doctrine held by the Church to be part of Revelation, it is a core tenet from which no Catholic may dissent without incurring automatic Excommunication.

DE FIDE aims to stop the monumental scandal which has been ongoing for the past thirty-one years of baptized Catholic politicians claiming to be Christian while professing the life-threatening Right-to-Murder heresy.

The crisis is outrageous - it is completely unacceptable - it must be stopped. Otherwise, we, and our children, and our children's children stand more to lose than simply our lives: We risk losing our salvation.

Please help DE FIDE defend the Church and the Faith.
