What a disgusting thing to post.. just because there are people who vehemently disagree with Catholics on matters of religion does NOT mean they would want someone murdered.. good heavens..

Are you sure about this? I guess you've never been on a religion thread when the Pope is called the anti-Christ or the "Whore of Babylon"?

It is a fact that there is VIRULENT anti-Catholicism on the board. Although many have been culled, and I give the moderators credit for that, some remain.

Calling the pope "Whore of Babylon" does not equate to wanting him dead... IMO.

"Unfortunately, there are more than a few Freepers who would join the Muslims for this."

I doubt it seriously. But I am sure you'd find many FReepers who were complacent about it. To me...the pope is worse than Chirac or Schroeder.

They are European politicians and we expect completely asinine statements, concepts and philosophies from them. The pope is supposed to be a Christian who suffers children to come unto the Lord not allow them to be fresh meat for his clergy. The pope is supposed to want freedom & Liberty for all mankind...not fall inline with some Worldy socialistic utopian effeminate dream.

If the Lord sees fit to let him go down...who am I to disagree.
