Well Father you must understand that the western media is pro terrorist and most are the children of Hitler and Stalin, so they will do everything they can to destroy the Church and any religion expect Islam.

I like this cardinal.

Without getting into a denominational p****** match, we have entered an age of anti anyone that names the name of Christ as Savior.

I get so frustrated with all of the political talk about something that is nothing more, and certainly no less than an attack by ALLAH against JESUS.

You say to may toe and I say to mah toe, and the cabbage heads say no to us both and does everything to cut us off of the vine.

Personally I like Future Weapons on the Discovery channel ... melons and cabbages get blown to smithereens.

I like this pope, this is the second time in a week that he's come out swinging. Earlier, he made his warnings on the existence of hell.

Now if we can get him to use that same verbal firepower on the Muslims.

Is the church just tumbling on to the fact that 90% of the world's media is anti-Catholic?

The secular Left is determined to stamp out Christianty over the rest of this century; they are moving right along.

the Vatican's prime minister, also accused the media of deliberately misinterpreting the Pope's speeches, especially his Regensburg address last September which angered Muslims.

Gosh, I thought it was a twofer: I liked what the mediots said the Pope said, and I also liked what he actually said.

Rah, rah, Ratzinger!

Thanks to Cardinal Bertone for telling it like it is!

Seems to me that too often organizations, whether religious or secular, are afraid to call the media on their lies. Maybe this cardinal's words will embolden others to speak up and tell the media they are on notice for their coverage.
