goes back to my initial argument.
i means seriously. it's like joining the klan and saying, but i love the white sheets. it's like joining hamas and saying, i know, i know the jews, but look at the healthcare i get! it's like joining nambla and saying - oh wait, pretty much the same thing.

But it what the various popes have believed changes from pope to pope, why shouldn't free-thinking Catholics think for themselves?
Maybe the next pope will agree with them. Or the last one.
Obviously the popes of the 100th and 11th century believed that two men could be joined in an Office of Same-Sex Union.
Weren't those popes infallible too?

No, actually. Papal infallibility didn't become dogma until 1870.

Posted: 2/4/09 at 10:06amWhen you're in hell for a sin that is no longer a sin do you get to go to heaven?
#32get yer indulgences, indulgences here
Posted: 2/4/09 at 10:25amheh, if it's not really a sin, phyllis you're not really in hell. you're just pointing and laughing at a lot of people who didn't do it and always wanted to who feel real stupid.

#34The Pope Knew Nothing

Does this guy still deny the holocaust? Or did he make a full confession and do penance? If the pop asbolved him and told him "Go, and deny no more!" I don't know how anyone could challenge that.
No, he did not, but today the Vatican called for him to "recant" his Holocaust-denying views.
They also said the pope "knew nothing" about Bishop Williamson's views.
Given the pope's early years in the Hitler Youth, it's odd for him to be doing a Sergeant Schultz from Hogan's Heroes saying "I know nosssink!"
Of course he knew about Williamson's views! They were hardly secret.
Vatican: Holocaust denier must recant

Posted: 2/4/09 at 10:49amSo the long arm of the Jews strikes again. Isn't it funny how the people who preach tolerance the most are so intolerant of other views themselves?

See, the whole problem with this whole protest against the Pope kind of boils down to one little thing:
Popes aren't generally known for giving a damn what anybody thinks. They're the goddamn Pope. Who the hell are you to tell them what to do?

Andrew Sullivan--a devout Catholic--has two fascinating items on his blog today about the pope, Father Maciel and the Holocaust-denier Williamson.
