If people like Pelosi, Kennedy, Kerry, et al would remember their Catholicism they would realize that the Pope speaks as God, and they would live in the rule of His word, and not in the popular laws man created. They would recognize that Pope Benedict XVI is the living representative of God on earth, and he is re-emphasizing the words and rules handed down from Him to Moses, and through Jesus to Peter and to each successive Pope who each has had the responsibility to remind us not sway from God's rules no matter what the popular culture seems to be advocating or why, or how “science” defines when life begins.

Pope Benedict XVI has always taken God's words totally literally. In the areas of abortion, birth control, and the problem of priests abusing children he will stand steadfast in the word of God and no mortal will make him accept less than what God spoke in the Ten Commandments and through Jesus.

If Pelosi, Kennedy, Kerry, and other Catholics-in-name-only don't realize that God is speaking directly to them through Pope Benedict when he does not permit communion be administered to those advocates of abortion and birth control, then they have made a conscious decision to ignore God and listen to the devil and the people through whom the devil speaks and has influenced. They might want to cloud their decisions to acquiesce to public pressure based on the rationales of men, but it is just their desire to hold political office and remain “popular” that has become more important than what they know to be what God wants.

Pope Benedict XVI, through his steadfast commitment to uphold God’s rules and by his action to exclude pro-abortion supporters is quite strongly reminding them they will never gain “popularity” with God for turning away from the laws and standards He set. Benedict is acknowledging the obvious: that they are openly succumbing to the temptations of self-gratification for their own mortal agendas and careers. And every time they attend a Mass and receive Communion they are flagrantly repeating the sin that not only scars their souls, and are also making an arrogant statement that they do not consider God’s rules important, nor the lives of the aborted children lovingly created by God.

These politicians and abortion supporters will pay in a way that will be far worse than loosing an election here on earth. Whatever success they have in this life, and no matter how they have tried to justify their decisions and actions, God will not forget the millions of lives they have allowed to be destroyed just so they could satisfy their own egos and personal desires for worldly acclaim.

They might always have supporters on earth and we might not witness their demise, or see the punishment they will face, but we can hold onto the knowledge that in the end God has the final judgment. On the day these people stand before Him, (no matter how many times they have kissed the Pope’s ring, or spoken to a Pope, or attended a Mass) God will not be influenced by any political action group, or lobbyist, or popular movement promulgated by those who have found it easier and advantageous to their own goals to destroy a life and succumb to the devil’s desires. When we do not respect the gift of life that God blessed us with, there is no loophole to slide through into Heaven.
