Edi steps in.edgeplay_cgo wrote:I believe this to be correct. It comes from two directions. The first is the quite fashionable bigotry by many Liberals against the Roman Catholic Church. If Catholics do it, it must be bad. The second is the Liberal agenda of concentrating all social benefits in the Government's hands. It's more than Statism. Modern Liberalism is Totalitarian at heart.WDMartin wrote:I think "Barry" is purposely trying to get the Catholic Church, and any other organization which may oppose him, out of the business of both charity and healthcare. By doing so he limits the options of people, and further's his own desire to make HIS system the only semi-functioning one in town. I tried to be charitable in my views of the man, for a long, long time, and chose to believe he was merely incompetent. No longer. Now I see he is purposely doing these things as a way of destroying or hobbling institutions to cripple them and further his agenda.
This is why I want mass hangings.
Angry reaction.Edi wrote:Regardless of the healthcare aspect of this thread, something that positively leaped out of the text of the article:
Let's do a little word substitution game:Now, undeniably, the church milquetoast of past decades that refused to discipline pro-abortion Catholics
That's about how far the moral authority of the Catholic church extends regarding fulminating about principles of doctrine. They've had a doctrine of institutional pedophilia, child molestation and covering it up and shielding the perpetrators, so they have absolutely no standing to whine about any principles. The entire organization is rotten from top to bottom and can be considered to be involved in organized criminal activity, at least in this respect.Now, undeniably, the church milquetoast of past decades that refused to discipline child-molesting pedophile priests and actively covered up for them at every level with the utmost effort
That's right. Teachers have a rate TEN TIME HIGHER! How dare you question the church!?Nightwatch2 wrote:Edi,
I presume by your bitter, venomous and highly offensive post that you hold the Public School System in similar contempt since they have a documented pedophile/sexual abuse rate more than 10 times higher than the tiny fraction of Priests who committed these offenses and Bishops who failed to exercise their proper oversight?
Not to mention Police Officers who have been exposed (pardon the expression) and charged with similar abuse?
(note to Police officers and teachers on this board - I am using this as an example only. I am not guilty of such intellectual sophistry and moral bankruptcy as to hold all guilty for the reprehensible sins of a few)
You've dug up an irrelevent point to try to discredit those of us who are standing against a blatant assault on religious freedom in a country you appear to know little about. Suggesting that a fraction of those in The Catholic Church who violated their sacred trust thereby discredits everything the rest of us do is an utterly bogus and phony argument.
Discussing Egypt

Here's an odd exchange.OSCSSW wrote:In other words No different than any other Oiless raghead sh1t hole doc! Mark my words, unless something truly miraculous (like the Army takes over ,ala Turkey, without igniting a blood bath of a civil war ) happens, No good will come of this. We are looking at another failed muslim cess pool, with a very important strategic/economic asset (the Canal) Egypt is also a very big one with a lot of modern weapons and some folks who actually know how to use them. I ought to know I helped train some of them.
This is why those of us, who actually have spent some time in the muslim world, were and are so negative about the Arab spring Bull Sh!t euphoria of the crack wh0re press and the liberal morons.

Seriously, do you deny that his father is a Moslem?
Winston Smith wrote:No, I do not. That's a matter for the historical record. Not sure what this has to do with Obama though. He self-identifies as a Christian, doesn't he?
The Admiral wrote:Doesn't matter; if your father is a Moslem so are you. If you claim you aren't, that makes you an apostate Moslem. That's what happens when one mixes up society and religion.
