How dare them. So snake-y, like a bunch of little James Carvilles runnin' round hopey-changing ever-thin...oh wait...you said "snakes" not snakeheads, sorry but I thought I caught a glimpse of a squirrel or something out of the corner of my eye and got distracted...
Now where were we again before the Sky-Pilots go to the pop-movies, going all Samuel L. Jackson on
Oh, that's right, Genesis 3:15. It had something or another to do with snakes, didn't it?
Snake heads (James Carville's) being stepped on, NOT by a "her", but by the rather strangely expressed "her seed" which is given either neutral or male gender in the Hebrew texts (Jerome says male or "he" as I noted) and an unequivocal "he" shall crush the serpents's head in the Greek texts (woops! Augustine is going to be aghast, for there went the "seventy" translators under the bus -- or was that a 747's landing gear?).
Which leaves things to be, that now, even according to the Vatican and what they present as Scripture, not anymore is it that a "she" would be doing the stepping out and stepping on the "James Carville" herself personally, as the now sad & lonely Douay-Rheims would have it, since that not-so-good supporting cast, the old Vulgate, has gone bumpety-bump under the wheels too.
From "old" Vulgate
inimicitias ponam inter te et mulieremAnd again from present-day, Vatican approved" Vulgate
et semen tuum et semen illius
ipsa conteret caput tuum
et tu insidiaberis calcaneo eius
Inimicitias ponam inter te et mulieremThe "Magesterium" appears to have altered the text from what had previously long circulated.
et semen tuum et semen illius;
ipsum conteret caput tuum,
et tu conteres calcaneum eius.
So now we take the strike-through marking off of the listing for
???
Perhaps the question now is if Samuel L. Jackson can get one of the doors open and jump --- without a parachute --- will "Mary" catch him before he hits the ground? Or was he even "flying" on a plane in the first place, since it was just a movie?
If you can demonstrate McCarrick, once president of the USCCB, was in communion with Rome (i.e., the “Vatican”), you're a magician.
McCarrick, as its president, outright lied to the USCCB about Cardinal Ratzinger's instruction to prohibit pro-abortion politicians from receiving Holy Communion.
So, "No"! I will not strike the Vatican off the list you have proposed.
