...Obama faces down anti-abortion activists and calls on Notre Dame graduates to open their hearts and minds to those who don't think like we do...
Media-sharing-the-bong alert.
I really cannot even bring myself to comment, except for this:
Back when I was a Protestant I read the “Left Behind” series.
The anti-Christ is a character that hypnotizes people who then cannot see anything wrong with him, and who do whatever he wants. He is assisted by sycophants who explain every horrible thing he does as a positive, and in the end are destroyed by the person they chose to follow.
My mind drifts to a less than holy...”...and the horse he rode in on”. I guess I know where I will be next Saturday.
Rev. John Jenkins is a disgrace.
me too.
we need to starting checking for ‘the mark of the beast’
Jenkins attacked pro-lifers for "demonizing" opponents. Obama invoked both crackpot modernists, Hesburgh and Bernardin for his version of "seamless garment" liberation theology, minus the sanctity of life. It was the usual appeal to moral relativism as the supposed higher ground. Then there was the very unfortune slur, the president's reference to "parochial" views. This is ALWAYS code for an anti-Catholic dig. Suggesting "parochial" views are in conflict with a higher ground of "universal" moral relativism.
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.
The other disgusting part was Obama's canard about the boy with diabetes and stem cells. That any Notre Dame student cheered for this line was a damnable indictment of the education going on there. There is NO scientific evidence that embryonic stem cells will EVER cure diabetes. And there are plenty of distinguished medical researchers who will testify to that. That Obama used the ND commencement platform to push for embryonic stem cell research was disgusting, revolting, and grotesque.
One moment of great irony: As Obama started his spin on relativism for abortion you could hear a baby crying in the audience on the Fox News feed. It was eerie. God and the Holy Ghost showed up.
Notre Dame's Kabuki Dance with Obama and the Culture of Death
hey so called priest jenkins.... words are words and political correctness is political correctness but...murder is STILL murder and murdering BABIES IS a really, really, really BIG SIN as you will one day find out.
What a shame this priest has lost his values.
“There is NO scientific evidence that embryonic stem cells will EVER cure diabetes.” You’re correct, but it wouldn’t matter if embryonic stem cells did cure diabetes because the ends don’t justify the means. (I know you know already know this.)
Yes, they did show up. God works in mysterious ways
How about his abject and wanton support for the Freedom of Choice Act, Father?
How about his removing the ban on fedferal funds for abortion, Father?
How about his vote against stopping partical birth abortion, Father?
How about his sickening votes in the IL Senate against a bill aimed at stopping live birth abortions, Father?
Sorry, hearing his opposing view is one thing. Dialog and engagement are one thing...and they are all good things to do in the public square so people can hear clearly both sides and decide accordingly.
But what you did today goes far, far beyond hearing him, or engaging him. You honoredf him with a law degree, thereby tacitly lending credence to his position in law which is the abject antithesis of the fundamental values that the Catholic Church stand for, and its position on this fundamental, crucial issue.
Shame, shame, shame. You have twisted the minds of youth towards an avenue of deciet and and wrong which may take decades to undo.
For all of your, and Obama's flowery words about aborting less babies...and let's be clear...for all the talk about KILLING less babies, all that Obama stands for and is pushing for...and will continue to puch for...is going to result in many, many more abortions here and abroad.
God have mercy on your soul and on him for that.
At least this good, faithful Priest, whom YOU had arrested, knew how to address this issue...and God bless him for it.
Obviously a media event. Clearly Axelrod still believes there's no such thing as bad press.
But every rule has its exceptions. This is one of them.
On what grounds are people being rested?
That was my thought.
rested > arrested.
That seals it for me....”Fr” Jenkins is GAY!!!! Or possessed by SATAN!
