I guess I am a heretic as well as I was baptized as a catholic when I was born. (complications so I guess it was also last rites)
Since her parents took her out of the Church at age 12, I think there is diminished responsibility than if an adult were to leave the Church.
She’s more of a Catholic than Biden. Biden excommunicates himself for supporting infanticide.
What is the point of this article?
Better an ex-Catholic than a current moron.
The stealth point seems to be damaging her reputation with Catholics and making Biden not seem so apostate. It won’t work.
The website of Global Catholic Network says absolutely nothing about Sarah Palin. The page linked in the article is nothing more than a discussion of Church teachings.
Apparently though, Paul Mulshine has taken it upon himself to speak for the Catholic Church as to whether Sarah Palin has been excommunicated or not, based upon a website on the internet.
I think Paul Mulshine should let the Church hierarchy speak on matters related to Governor Palin’s alleged excommunication. And as a matter of fact, I'm almost positive that the Church hierarchy has nothing to say about Governor Palin because she is no longer a practicing Catholic, and hasn't been since she was a child.
So Paul Mulshine should just shut his yap about something he knows nothing about, and on an issue upon which he has no authority to speak.
I'm reminded, in some way, of FLDS polygamists who MUST agree with the every word of their "so-called" prophet.
In either case, freedom of intelligent thought is denied.
Sounds like the girlie-man has had a bad day. Gads.
What a hit piece. A celebrity no less stellar than Princess Grace of Monaco once stated “As a Christian I believe I’ve improved over the years...I may not be the best Catholic.”
Who is this piehole, and why should we care what he thinks about Sarah Palin?
Sowing division among brothers is something that God hates, and the last thing we need right now are Christians fighting over doctrine.
Is this really smart of the Star-Trib to publish? Being in the heart of Lutheran country and all?
What is this guys problem? This is the second inane, nitpicking piece he has written about Gov. Palin.
Osamabama was born a Muslim, correct (the father's faith determines the son's in Islam)?
Muslims who abandon Islam are, and always have been for 13 centuries, subject to sanctions and/or 'fatwas' from the mullahs. No exception is made for 'childhood' abadonment of 'The Faith'.
Osamabama makes much of his presumptive 'Christian' faith. He has, by his own testimony, abandoned Islam and, as such, is an apostate in the eyes of Islam.
Islam has not sanctioned Osamabama in any fashion.
Therefore, assuming only that Islam is consistent in its practice regarding apostates, he is still a Muslim, but pretending not to be, and is practicing taqqiyah, the Islamic instruction to deceive the infidel in the name of the Faith.
Any Islamists here care to argue with the reasoning above?
Nam Vet
This is the 2nd column by the same author running the thrads now. He seems not to like Gov. Palin.
When one thinks of it, if her parents left the Catholic Church when she was 12, that would be 32 years ago, coinciding with the effects of the Vatican Council 2 which was something of an abomination to traditional Catholics.
Perhaps someone from DU hacked Coleus’s FR account and want to discredit Palin among FR Catholics by pointing out that Sarah is a heretic, just like the rest of Biblical Christianity?
So, would you say that once a dead Catholic has been baptized into the LDS Church by some pimply faced Mormon in a Mormon Temple, do they then fit your definition of a heretic?
Posts like this just show the rampant hatred of the Proddie Bashers(TM) here on FR.
