"And just how is the Pope proposing to enforce his idea of a non-sovereign, communistic utopia?? Quite frankly, this man is dangerous."

A potential danger to the rest of us (given the right circumstances), is:

[1] Any tyrannical (top-down) mentality who would claim to be the sole, and final spokesperson for God in spiritual matters.

[2] Anyone who actually believes that it's true.

America's Framers didn't. That's why we got a Republic - a bottoms up form of government, undergirded by an impartial rule of law (not by the fluctuating, changing rules of biased, partial men).

With some of the recent SCOTUS decisions like Lawrence vs. Texas and the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court decision demanding the licensing of sodomite "marriages," I am afraid that we are in serious danger of a "bottoms up" government such as our Founding Fathers did not envision.
