Post #8 was in reference to the original post about civil unions, but don't let the facts get in the way of a good old fashion rant. This is the part where a christian would apologize for their error... I am not holding my breath.

I have come to the conclusion that no matter what a catholic does the protestants will find something negative to say. If the pope was seen walking on water the FR headline would read "Pope can't swim."

Your projection is noted.

I was responding to the comment about distrusting the pope.

I realize what the topic of the thread was about, but a man who cannot be trusted to not rob the dead, cannot be trusted at all.

Otherwise, the pope has been put on the level of politicians where people claim that what he does in his private life has no bearing on his ability to hold office.

That is simply not true. People’s morality is not compartmentalized like that. A man who cannot be trusted in private, cannot be trusted in public.

And he has already demonstrated that his ability to make sound judgment is basically non-existent.

If this Pope is seen walking on water give me a call.

But in the mean time there is a huge difference between walking on water and being a thief.

I've read that Ted Kennedy could actually drive across water.

The clear point is when the Pope opens his mouth to make a statement people are listening. Maybe he should address the things he actually has control over changing.
