It's about time...Folks like the Kennedys, Kerrys, Durbins, Leahys, Landrues get away with many devout catholic voters who for some reason choose to ignore the fact that these very politicians are almost herectics!
As a Catholic myself, I am ashamed and sadden that so many of our leading pro-abortion politicians are Catholic.
I can only hope excommunications come next....
As a product of 12yrs of catholic education, I left the church, and follow the teachings of Martin Luther. Seeing the history and present, I state this with no hatred or bitterness, but I have come to the conclusion that the Roman Catholic Church is the first and still most powerful multinational corporation ever.
I respected Pope John Paul II and respect Pope Benedict for trying to bring the RC Church back to its roots. Pope Benedict has a lot of work ahead of him. Lots of Cafeteria Catholics addicted to moral relativism abound in on the East Coast and urban areas around the country.
Anecdote:
Our small little Church (congregation 165) put together 4400 crosses in the shape of the Missouri Synod Cross for a pro life exhibit. We started in 1994, on Route 41 in Indiana several years. We have since passed on a large number of these crosses to several Pro Life groups. Lots of work and a member had land on Route 41, and we placed the crosses in a fallow field.
The help from the very profitable RC Parish was non existent. The pastor had a "whats in it for my parish" attitude and although a few passers by from the parish helped us set up, the silence was deafening.
NOTE: IF anyone has a need for around 600 crosses (wood, painted white, 22" x 11"they are still available. Ping me if you can give them a home
Off my soapbox
