ALL Catholic believers are "born again" and have been so for 2,000 years. Where have you been and how do you get to make the rules of Christianity???? We, Catholics were here for 1,600 years and then along you came, reinterpreting scripture (with which the Catholics provided you ) and remaking the rules...great gig if you can get it!!!

Kennedy? Chavez? Pelosi? Mafia hit men?

Really? They're all going to heaven because they've been born again?

If they were born again, where is the changed life to testify to it?

Thanks, metmom....I just could not get beyond the stupidity, and desperation, of that statement.

They really are desperate to believe that and it breaks my heart.

while Catholics are , indeed, born again, it is everyones prerogative to reject Christ's gifts, some of them do, most don't. You don't judge the character of a church by pointing out they some of her members are idiots.
