Please post all information about today's protests here.

My phone is already ringing steadily.

Our AIP folks on the ground at the Notre Dame gates report that the CBR plane is in the air.

Your lies about Catholics worshiping Mary.

You're saying they don't?

[buccaneer81]

You're saying they don't?

We do not.

[MantillaMilitant]

Now with his honorary degree from ND, Obama can add “Professor of Canon Law” to the other exaggerations on his resume.

[behzinlea]

I’m not Catholic, but I think you should more courtesy. I’m sure your beliefs are not above reproach to someone.

[exit82]

Thanks, HM-BA, for the explanation.

I see Cardinal Bernardin was from CHICAGO.Like Zero. Like the ND Board of Trustees.

It is all falling into place now.

[Texas Eagle]

We do not.

So you've never been told to do so many Hail Marys as penance for your sins?

[rbmillerjr]

“Jenkins’ hysterial speech praising Obama was disgraceful. One of the most disgraceful and shameful moments in Catholic intellectual history and the postconciliar period. It’s clear Jenkins’ is an hysterical supporter of Obama and shameless liberal. This was absurd from the Stockholm Syndrome valedictorian to the hysterical cheering for Obama.”

Yeah, I was thinking the guy is just plain evil, but your words are much more eloquent to fit the academic setting.

You can google for an image of Holy Mary but not to find out if the propaganda you're spreading is true or not? Please post a reference from a reputable source to back up your assertions.

“For some weird reason, they want to be thought of as Christians but then they worship The Virgin Mary.”

[Petronski]

That’s not worship of Mary.

[Petronski]

I must admit he did post quite a beautiful picture.

[buccaneer81]

So you've never been told to do so many Hail Marys as penance for your sins?

I have. And it's not worship.

[mimaw]

What that speech and the reception of it by the audience as well as Mr. Jenkins remarks does is blur the issue of life with liberal Catholics who worship at the alter of social justice. In this country social justice means getting a hand out from government on the backs of those who worked hard and succeeded. I'm not sure that is the noble cause some Catholic Clergy should be proud of promoting.

[chase19]

This was my full post:

Sigh, because you’re a waste of time. Anyone with gumption would do a search on this forum or google Catholic teaching, to find out if it was true that Catholics “worship” Holy Mary. You didn’t therefore you’re either ignorant or hold unto this untruth in order to create division. Sad.”

Rather devious of you taking it out of context.

[livius]

There appears to have been much rot in the Catholic hierarchy for some time.

There has been. Between out-and-out rot and just plain human weakness and desire for approval, the heirarchy has completely collapsed. I hope that the good bishops who came out and opposed this will be more visible and become real leaders in the future, but on the other hand, the fact that Obama got away with this just cut their legs out from under them.

You're right, we are all going to have to choose before too long.

[whatisthetruth]

That's good to know, geez, how many men does it take to arrest one little old lady?

[Allegra]

You're saying they don't?

We don't.

We revere her.

We only worship the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

[Texas Eagle]

That's not worship of Mary.

Oh.

[chase19]

Yes which is why I reposted it. :)

[Petronski]

I’m glad you understand.
