“You can’t be for abortion and be Catholic, it’s impossible”.
~ Father John Corapi
NOTE: It’s just a shame that these hypocrites continue to belittle and bring great scandal to the faith by continuing to call themselves Catholic when they renigged on the right to even be a Catholic when they started having abortions and supporting politicians who vote for abortion, and sodomite “marriage”.
Well, if my theology deviated as far from the Scripture as Rome's has, then yes, I would be ignorant. But, read the Book, my FRiend...none of the cult-like operations promulgated by Rome are listed there. In the New Covenant there is no absolution of sin through a "priest", there is no transubstantiation, there is no genuflecting, there is no purgatory, there are no seven sacraments, there are no "Saints" (with a capital S), there are candles, there is no "Rome".
If the RC constituents would read their Bibles (you know, that Book that Rome claims to have delivered to the world, gag), they would find that God, before the foundation of the world, elected some to be granted grace to salvation, through a faith, none of which is their own. The entire package is a gift given to those whom He has chosen, not by any work, lest Rome get puffed up with its own press (a loose paraphrase). Go read it, my FRiend. If you are among those Jesus is drawing, you will recognize the truthfulness of these remarks and swim the Tiber...the other direction.

Funny you should use a John Corapi quote to talk about Catholic hypocrisy:
SOLT's fact-finding team has acquired information from Fr. Corapi's e-mails, various witnesses, and public sources that, together, state that, during his years of public ministry:Corapi's 10 Percent Solution [the sacramental life was only 10 percent of his priesthood]
He did have sexual relations and years of cohabitation (in California and Montana) with a woman known to him, when the relationship began, as a prostitute; He repeatedly abused alcohol and drugs; He has recently engaged in sexting activity with one or more women in Montana; He holds legal title to over $1 million in real estate, numerous luxury vehicles, motorcycles, an ATV, a boat dock, and several motor boats, which is a serious violation of his promise of poverty as a perpetually professed member of the Society.
-- from the thread NEW Statement from SOLT on Father John Corapi [Catholic Caucus]
I believe you have me confused with someone else. Catholicism, that self-promoting, error-ridden, religion of man does not get exposed by the DU. The two are peas in a pod.
Pardon me, FRiend...are you saying that I am "wrong"? How can I be wrong if I believe it and you tell us that these things "believed" are neither right nor wrong? Upon what basis do you then determine I am wrong?
You may wish to pursue a good course in theology. There is truth and there is error. And, much of what you posted is error. Rome is also incorrect.
Tautology, you lose.
Father John Corapi was a great priest. He spoke the truth and brought many people to Catholicism. Liberals hated him though, so you posting a bunch of garbage from liberal sites after he quit actively preaching, does not surprise me in the least. He spoke the truth about the faith and could have cared less what some grandstanding liberal bishop thought about it. For that he was put on ice.
You must disagree with Father Corapi on abortion. Maybe you should fine yourself a liberal website to expouse your liberals views. Father Corapi was as conservative as they come.
ROTFL!
Like I said before you’re a liberal. No conservative blasts a man that spoke the truth about homosexuals and corrupt priests and everything else that needs to be cleaned up in the Catholic Church. You need to start posting at the National Catholic Reporter. You’re on the wrong website. Look up the word “Sanctimonious”. That describes you and other Catholic bashers to a tee.

“Here’s a clear picture. Corapi .. among many things he said in the past .. pointed out the corruption in the Church. He unabashedly talked about the angry homosexual subculture that controls so much of what goes on.
He blasted unfaithful bishops .. meaning not only the obvious ones but also the ones who quietly and cowardly sit back and let heterodoxy and heresy spread unchecked.
It isn’t a stretch of the imagination to conclude many of the enemies he made and noses he got out of joint among the bishops and their lapdog media lackies are glad to see all of this going on.
And now .. the professional Catholics on the internet .. are piling on .. first stating their supposed concern and prayers for Fr. John and then launching into a stream of criticism that they themselves would wither under.
No matter what Fr. Corapi has done .. and no matter how he responded .. it is absolutely certain that there are many who are quietly enjoying this sad case. As far as they are concerned .. one of their opponents is now gone.
LOL not that you're making it personal or anything.
Bother someone else you can fool. Don’t respond to anything I post from now on. I have no desire to correspond with a closet liberal on FR.
My folks were so supportive of each other’s religion that they joked that Mom was a Metholic and Dad was a Cathodist.
I generally see most Catholics as loyal Rat voters. Sadly.
Please realize that the Catholics on this site are mostly conservative Republicans.
Waiting...
Is this supposed to be a veiled threat? Perhaps you should review the posting rules. We are to be ladies and gentlemen, without personal attacks, no profanity, dealing with ideas. Hmmm.
Well, then the gatherings of believers who are part of the Body of Christ, the Son of God, the Alpha and Omega, Jesus of Nazareth, Yahweh Elohim of the Scriptures, the Creator of Heaven and Earth, the Giver of Faith reaching all the way back to Abel (Heb. 12) apparently pre-date your organization.
We have the story of Abel’s spilled blood in our Bible. Please do not try to put words into my mouth.
Was Abel a real, historical, singular person? Who were Abel's parents? Were they real, historical, and singular people as well? Did the blood spilling happen on a particular, singular day in time-and-space history?
Okay, this is a rather peculiar post. Can you fill me in on the connection to what I said?
