Is it safe to assume that you hold the same opinion of the current Pope? "He offended members of other faiths in 2000 when he signed a document which argued: "Only in the Catholic Church is there eternal salvation."

(1) That quoted sentence is completely made up and found nowhere in the document.

(2) He didn't just sign the actual document, he wrote it.

(3) You're more than welcome to read the document yourself instead of relying on a journalist's misquote.

(4) Chapter VI of the document addresses the question in great detail.

Though Salazar is the best of a bad lot, as far as RATs go, he's a perfect example that even the most moderate RAT is still a RAT.

Keep up your name calling tirade

If Dr. Mohler had started making nasty comments, I wouldn't have to call him on them.

and I'm likely to start quoting from the Westminster Confession of Faith

Go right ahead. It's actually got a very engaging prose rhythm.

Either Salazar has a substance abuse problem or he had a mental breakdown.

Why don't you read the whole document, instead of just the NZ Herald write up?

"Therefore, in connection with the unicity and universality of the salvific mediation of Jesus Christ, the unicity of the Church founded by him must be firmly believed as a truth of Catholic faith. Just as there is one Christ, so there exists a single body of Christ, a single Bride of Christ: “a single Catholic and apostolic Church” "

"The Catholic faithful are required to profess that there is an historical continuity — rooted in the apostolic succession53 — between the Church founded by Christ and the Catholic Church: “This is the single Church of Christ... which our Saviour, after his resurrection, entrusted to Peter's pastoral care (cf. Jn 21:17), commissioning him and the other Apostles to extend and rule her (cf. Mt 28:18ff.), erected for all ages as ‘the pillar and mainstay of the truth' (1 Tim 3:15). This Church, constituted and organized as a society in the present world, subsists in [subsistit in] the Catholic Church, governed by the Successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him”.With the expression subsistit in, the Second Vatican Council sought to harmonize two doctrinal statements: on the one hand, that the Church of Christ, despite the divisions which exist among Christians, continues to exist fully only in the Catholic Church, and on the other hand, that “outside of her structure, many elements can be found of sanctification and truth”,55 that is, in those Churches and ecclesial communities which are not yet in full communion with the Catholic Church.56 But with respect to these, it needs to be stated that “they derive their efficacy from the very fullness of grace and truth entrusted to the Catholic Church”."

"On the other hand, the ecclesial communities which have not preserved the valid Episcopate and the genuine and integral substance of the Eucharistic mystery,61 are not Churches in the proper sense;"

That one? So Catholics say Baptists and Presbyterians don't belong to a true church. Don't get offended if we return the favor. After all, good Presbyterians and reformed Baptists aren't permitted to marry Catholics.

What did you think that Illegal immigration would have no effect?

And the influx of Kalifornicators all through the '90s.

"Even though Dr. Mohler is a dumbass of the first water, I don't see how his silly opinions threaten Senator Salazar's freedom to pretend to worship in a Church whose moral doctrine he rejects."

And Dr. Mohler would be a "dumbass" for why? Because he stated the obvious and well known difference between Catholicism and Protestantism? Give me a break.

Salazar apparently doesn't understand what an enormous and well-funded political lobby the Focus on the Family "Action" wing is (www.focusaction.org). He won't be able to get a thing done in this state. Local news and papers here are outraged and only the most foaming, clueless lefties will defend his statement.

He won because they ran ads claiming Pete Coors "wants to sell our teenagers beer". Give me a f'ing break. All the people who fell for that, now you have your spokesperson "Pelosi-style".

"After all, good Presbyterians and reformed Baptists aren't permitted to marry Catholics."

You got that right. A very close family member and lifelong Baptist was forced to convert to Catholicism lest the husband's family object vehemently to the marriage. I couldn't believe how big a deal it was that she had to convert. I mean the groom's family would have disavowed their son and the marriage if she had not converted under duress. It was difficult for her and difficult foor the rest of us to watch the whole situation unfold.

Headquarters of James Dobson's Focus on the Family: COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO

It's too bad Salazar didn't make these feelings known last October. He would still be home in Colorado if he had.
