I'm done--I've had it with the Pope. Nice man, but obviously senile and unable to connect the dots. I thought he was quite the enemy of communism but I guess he's quite the enemy of democracy as well. (His first choice appears to be, by default, theocracy. That's consistent; after all, the Council of Bishops declared capitalism incompatible with true Christianity--an important point they seemed to forget when distributing hush-money.)

I was seriously disappointed by the Pope when he basically looked the other way in not more seriously condemning the priestly sexual predators. Now he wants to look the other way on pagans who plan to kill us.

Perhaps it is time for JPII to say, "Ciao."

Pure Capitalism, like an other "ism" is incomplete and incorrect. You realize pure Capitalism is simply utilitarian? There is no value to those who can not produce.

Also, Socialism has been declared incompatible with Christianity. So don't try to make it seem like somethign it isn't.

I love how everyone says he's senile. Someone please, for the love of God, explain how Parkinson's affects the brain? Really. I want to know.
