Yes, I’m sure Jesus would approve of prenatal infanticide as well as taking money and property by threat of force to give to others.
She must be confusing Anton Le Vey’s Satanic Bible with God’s Bible.
Dear Lord, it is very obvious that Nancy Pelosi is way over her head serving as Senate Majority Leader. She’s stressed out and cracking up. Please Lord, remove her from office so that she can have some peace.
They have, she's been reminded by her bishop about the "ipso facto", ('latae sententiae') excommunication that takes place when a Catholic politician fosters legalized abortion, or a Catholic procures an abortion.
("A person who procures a successful abortion incurs an automatic (latae sententiae) excommunication." [Code of Canon Law 1398].
"Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave offense. The Church attaches the canonical penalty of excommunication to this crime against human life. "A person who procures a completed abortion incurs excommunication latae sententiae," [CIC, can. 1398] "by the very commission of the offense," [CIC, can. 1314] and subject to the conditions provided by Canon Law. [Cf. CIC, cann. 1323-1324] The Church does not thereby intend to restrict the scope of mercy. Rather, she makes clear the gravity of the crime committed, the irreparable harm done to the innocent who is put to death, as well as to the parents and the whole of society." (C.C.C. # 2272) NOTE: "Formal cooperation includes the doctor, nurses, clinic, and politicians who have made abortions possible.
Theory.
Is she still being communed in her home parish and elsewhere?
Theory means nothing. Theory is like the fenceless border with Mexico.
Rules that can be defied without consequence are worse than no rules at all.
But that still doesn't make it easy.Mark, it actually IS easy. In fact, nothing could be easier, especially for a Catholic! Christ is not a wimp; He is a hero, and has already attested to the fact that the faith the size of a mustard seed can move a mountain (Matt 17:20). Nancy Pelosi seems a perpetual cheerleader, wanting to "lead" the nation with hurrahs; can you not (as a Catholic) also "hear" her cries for help? A prayer for Nancy Pelosi, is a prayer for the United States. A prayer for Nancy Pelosi, constitutes *real* belief in Christ.
Oh, I know. But it sure is a lot more satisfying to authentically pray Ps 109 for her than Rom 12. Just the flesh talking, that's all.
I’ll add something else... when Bush said he sought guidance and that God spoke to him, the Lefties and Libs went nutso. I think she’s hearing the Word alright and it’s not God’s words at all. Satan can recite scripture perfectly.
I like you.
Well I am working with the Ohio Project to get signatures on a petition so we can fight the health care bill. I don’t know what will come of it but I am involved.
Praying for your enemies is one of the hardest things to do. My priest suggested that I put someone’s name (she had scandalized me by telling lies) on the back of a holy picture. Then every time I walked past it — I could say a prayer. Subconciously it got so that the prayer was for that person even though I was touching the picture of Christ or the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Not easy — but doable. I no longer have ill feelings for that person and can be congenial to her.

Love it.
