so, if you are rude to me, come into my house, trash my rules, make fun of what I believe in, and I ask you to go, I have a heart of darkness for doing it?

This is what a lot of people have been doing with the church.

To infallibly hunt down and excommunicate external evils, suggests an internal heart of darkness, projected onto others.

That you characterize a courageous zeal for truth as "an internal heart of darkness" says plenty about you, and nothing about the Pope.

Popes are Christians, followers of Jesus Christ, not libertarian worshippers of their own bellies. Deal with it.

"Habemus 'Possum." (?)

Cardenal Ratzinger defines the libertarian first principle of following one's own conscience, as relativistic tyranny. He affirms his faith by condemning alternate perceptions of holiness. He accuses those whom he has censured, and silenced of being themselves the dictators. To infallibly hunt down and excommunicate external evils, suggests an internal heart of darkness, projected onto others.

Ratzinger, the enforcer of orthodoxy, might remember the words Pogo, the marsupial philosopher, "We have met the enemy and he is us."

You are suggesting that the Pope should take his cue from a children's book about some Gala worshiping nature freak?

Prayers for Pope Benedict XVI.

May God bless his reign as servant-leader of Christ's Church.

"alternate perceptions of holiness"?
Where did you come from?
He hasn't even been Pope a full day. How do you know what he is going to do?
Seems to me the Pope is supposed to defend against "alternate perceptions of holiness", so I guess he will be doing his job.

This neglects a simpler explanation, viz., that he may just love the Almighty and neighbor enough that he hates evil and does not want anyone harmed by the spread of false doctrine.

"We have met the enemy and he is us."

No, we have met the enemy, and he is Satan and his modernist, liberal useful idiots.
