Pelosi accuses Catholics of having 'this conscience thing'
American Thinker ^ | November 18, 2011 | William Tate

Posted on 11/18/2011 11:23:47 AM PST by jazusamo

After having some of her behind the scenes shenanigans exposed, Nancy Pelosi has turned to her friends in the MSM to help her with damage control. The effect is something akin to watching what scrambles out after you overturn a large rock.

Pelosi sought to defend herself from allegations that she and her husband made millions from insider trading in what the Washington Post calls a wide ranging interview ...

~snip~

"I'm a devout Catholic and I honor my faith and love it . . . but they have this conscience thing." (Emphasis added.)

This conscience thing? As in, they have one?

And she called Cain clueless?

She is NOT a devout Catholic. Devout Catholics, by definition, accept the techings of the church and the pope.

I go by what the bible says. Of course, I'm also no longer Catholic.

Devout?

Why because she has heard of “The most beautiful word, which is The Word”

Has anyone seen her in a church (ever)?

It works hand and glove with faith, otherwise one spins one's wheels.

"I'm a devouthonor abhor my faith and love hate it . . . but they have this conscience thing."

First, some things needed fixing. Second, note how "Princess Nancy" stated THEY have this conscience thing!

¨...this conscience thing....

She still shows up at the rail? And some reprobate priest gives it to her? Is this some rogue church, or mainstream RC?

If she had a conscience, she wouldn’t be able to call herself a “devout Catholic.”

By being pro-abortion? That must be SOME Catholic Church that tolerates that kind of faith and devotion.

Nancy wouldn’t recognize a conscience if it bit her in the Botox.

When questioned, the priests/bishops always say “s/he excommunicated himself”,

thus alleviating any need to actually take a controversial action.

Nah it’s that Sacrament of Communion thing.

I mean really going to Church to receive communion. They have to be “DEVOTE”
Even though Protestants have the same sacrament. Because most don’t have Communion EVERY service, THEY aren’t “DEVOTE./s

IMO it’s is the underlying hatred of Christ that drives this attitude.

NOW FOR NASTY NAN:

Does he who knowingly receives Holy Communion in mortal sin receive the body and blood of Christ and His graces?

He who knowingly receives Holy Communion in mortal sin receives the body and blood of Christ, but he does not receive His graces and commits a grave sin of sacrilege.

(a) To receive Holy Communion unworthily is a serious abuse of the sacred body and blood of the Lord, and therefore a sacrilege.

Tell us nan do you think Abortion is a MORTAL SIN. It doesn’t matter if you personally haven’t had one. You have provided money and support to the abortionist. IMO

Unless she makes it public no one will know if she has been excommunicated.

Why is it that only Catholics (or phonies like Pelosi who falsely claim to be Catholic) are described at “devout”? I never hear Protestants or Jews described as “devout.” Does the mainstream media write these stories on autopilot?

In fact it's only Catholic Democrat politicians who reject the teachings of the Church who are called "devout"...

I don’t even know what this means.

She claims to be a devout Catholic, and then says this? Whatever it means.

OMG.

Kinda hard to hide that if you haven’t/can’t take communion.
