I think you ought to take Fred Mertz' advice.

It has always bemused me that Catholics and many Portestants as well are so thin-skinned. As soon as someone says something that disagrees with their view they go right off, becoming beligerant and accusative. Here I have been accused of hate, of being anti-Catholic, even of being queer.

I believe it is wrong for Americans to allow the ruler of a foreign power to dictate how they should vote, even when those dictations are right? (The Vatican is a foreign power to which we send an ambasador.)

I believe if a religion allows or convinces someone otherwise that religion is oppressive and superstitious. You do not have to agree, and you are free to explain where I am wrong. You are also free to be totally irrational and vindictive, which you have evidently chosen to be.

Hankie-

Your sudden attempt at coherent discourse is funny - but it doesn't negate your asinine comments about voting for abortion-lovers simply because the Pope advises the opposite. Nothing is more childish and as redhead mentions, your ranting is excellent PR for the Catholic Church. How many divisions does the Pope have, by the way? The pope is no foreigner - he is the earthly leader of all of us, no matter what arbitrary, man-made, earthly boundaries we live within.

Did you read the title?

A BRIEF CATECHISM FOR CATHOLIC VOTERS

Since you are not Catholic, your commnents here are simply so much farting in the parlor.
