OK, some Republicans on Free Republic have been lambasting Pope Benedict.
They need to read this article! And obviously, they also need to read the ENTIRE encyclical!

The statement concluded that "Caritas in Veritate is not a political document, but rather a complex work that warrants careful and thoughtful contemplation by American Catholics and non-Catholics alike at this time of economic anxiety."Ping!

Anti-Catholic, anti-Pope FR Republicans will continue to bash the Pope regardless and not take the time to read this.

OK, some virulent, hate-filled protestant Republicans on Free Republic have been
attempting to lambaste Pope Benedict,
but still keep missing the point.Unfortunately for their master, the Catholic faith still stands strong.
Remember that no matter what Christian sect you claim, its roots are in the Holy Mother Church. Trying to call down the holder of Roman Catholicism's highest office is not conducive to dialogue and understanding.
Then again, there are those who refuse to listen, and will suffer the consequences. My prayers are ongoing for them, pointless though it may seem.

Interesting. Thanks for posting. Thaddeus McCotter represents the district I live in.

Untwisting words of lies. Good for them.

It underlined the Pontiff's warning that "individuals, families, churches, communities, and businesses must never become subservient to the state." The politicians highlighted Benedict XVI's point that "the sanctity of all human life must always be protected."
They also noted the encyclical's support of conservation, not "radical environmentalism."
Excellent points, all!
