Former President Carter Blasts Catholic Teaching on Women’s Ordination
Catholic Culture ^ | 3/26/14

Posted on 03/26/2014 6:00:24 AM PDT by marshmallow

In an interview with National Public Radio, former President Jimmy Carter said that Catholic teaching on women’s ordination has led to the abuse of women throughout the world.

“The fact that the Catholic Church, for instance, prohibits women from serving as priests or even deacons gives a kind of a permission to male people all over the world, that well, if God thinks that women are inferior, I’ll treat them as inferiors,” said Carter. “If she’s my wife, I can abuse her with impunity, or if I'm an employer, I can pay my female employees less salary.”

As if anyone gives a smelly Obama about Carter.

Annapolis should be ashamed of themselves.

“I guess Jimmy has not been reading his bible lately.”

He’s a Democrat first, not a Christian, just as Pelosi is a Demorat first, not a Catholic, and Reid is a Democrat first, not a Mormon. Their real religion is Big Government, and that has their full allegiance.

Anti-Catholic, anti-Jewish, anti-Traditional, and whatever else he can think of to poke his finger in the eye of anything good and decent. He is a bitter, miserable human being.

He has a problem with God, not us. His insensitivity towards the Scriptures is telling.

One thing I can give President Obama credit for: he doesn't allow that blowhard access to the White House to offer his unsolicited advice and counsel.

This ex-president has not had it easy after serving in office. He is desperate to re-write history, to salvage something from his disastrous four year record, mercifully terminated by Ronald Reagan. The current occupant is quite capable of snatching the "Worst President Ever" award from Carter on his own.

Could someone please explain to me why I should give a rat’s a$$ about what Corn-Teeth has to say about anything.

"Corn Teeth"?? Lol. That is hilarious. Made me smile this EARLY Wednesday morning. Oops, I chuckled OUT LOUD. Good sign!

From homeowner associations to common core, to EPA, to judges and politicians, every liberals thinks they should tell us how to live. They can't get there life together, so they want to screw up every organization (Boy & girl Scouts) church, family,....and tell us they know better than God. These people don't have a humble bone in their body. They are know it alls, arrogant, controlling marxist. They want us to be as miserable as they are. God help us!

They DO drone on and on, don't they?
I think one of the worst flaws liberals insist on is RIGHTS without RESPONSIBILITIES.

The only good Carter was Billy. If he were alive he would bust Jimmah in the mouth.

Billy was the (much needed) comic relief.

I’m not surprised that Jimmy hates Catholics. He was born in 1924, just before the peak of the vehemently anti-Catholic second Ku Klux Klan, so by the time he was 6-8 years old, he had probably heard lots of anti-Catholic rants, along with the typical anti-Jewish rants.

And it’s not surprising that this didn’t include open dislike of blacks, in that middle class whites were careful to not insult their part time domestic servants, like cleaning women, laundry women, and other help, instead holding them in gentle contempt as inferiors who lived on “the other side of the railroad tracks.”

He belongs to a Southern Baptist schismatic church, a recent religious schism, that broke away from the Southern Baptist Conference, because it wasn’t leftist enough. It is called the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, and he is parroting their platform against the SBC.

Jimmy Carter is a turd.

Jimmy Carter carried his own suitcase into the White House in a famous photo op. Now he feels obliged to lecture other religious denominations on their beliefs. He has apparently abandoned the pose of humility that served his purposes, long ago.

Perhaps someone close to him--someone who has no ax to grind--should quietly explain to the ex-President, that this behavior is completely inappropriate.

If I remember correctly, it was only after Jimmuh became president that his church allowed Black People. I think he belonged to a country club that was similar.

Just a memory i have...not documented with a link.

Little Jimmy sure has been spouting off a lot recently. I suppose he feels emboldened by the fact that he has been moved from worst president ever to second worst.

Carter in his dotage can no longer hide his anti Catholic bigotry.

&&
But he is an equal opportunity bigot; he hates Jews, too.
