Sure sounded like DNC talking points which increasingly have a French accent.

CG will be back perhaps with a new screen name. The style shouldn't be hard to miss.

Where Catholics are not welcome. :(

Codie. Read post #3. If this was the offending post the issue isn't Catholicism.

[Codie]

Yes it is.But, I'll not pick up the banner. I agree with some of the points however,I don't agree with all of them.

Excellent read thanks RW...I was just reading a book where the author noted it is no longer "fashionable" to believbe in the providence of God..He pointed to the city of Providence as proof of the belief once commonly held that there is a providential God

Pro 8:15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.

Proverbs 21:1, The heart of the king is in the hands of the Lord, He directs it like a water-course, wherever He pleases.

You are weird!

Bush is Horoning His calling as one of the world leaders that God appoints world over.

Only man has freewill, but Bush choses to listen to God, where as many others in their calling in the world, are falling short!

Yes.It's the "just war" theory

[sinkspur]

Yes.It's the "just war" theory

It's not about the "just war" theory. Afghanistan was most assuredly a "just war," but CG thinks even that war was unjust and misguided.

CG's got issues with George W. Bush. His criticism of him went over the line and somebody (not me) turned him in, I guess.

I like CG, but he's an ultramontane where the Pope is concerned, and is a total pacifist.

I got home this evening, uncorked one of my favorite merlots, sat down and hurray! Catholicguy is back, and Wow! is he back; didn't miss a beat.( Tiger Woods could learn a thing mebbe )I suspected his line of rhetoric was bannable, knowing others who have dissented from the FR line have reached a similar fate; said so to my wife before getting toward the bottom of the thread. I didn't agree with all he wrote, but when it came to originality and creativity, not to mention knowlege, Catholiguy was one of the best Freepers. Banning him is a travesty, and says more about FreeRepublic than it does him. It says more about where this country is headed, and it says that there are some real dopes here, if they can't handle having their political views questioned.

Here's to you Catholicguy.

[IGNATIUS]

Chiliastic cretin--LOL--plus all those celebrity TV evangelists annoyingly sucking up to Israel while privately interpreting prophecy and proclaiming an impending thousand year reign.

[St.Chuck]

Just wanted to bump you to the thread that led to Catholicguy's demise. I know you were all friends/foes. I doubt anyone had a neutral position.
