| Did anyone else see him go off on Christians the other day. Why is this okay? I am not going to be able to look at that channel anymore. Sick of it. |

I am pretty sure Christian is not a race, so calling him racist wouldn't really be accurate. Prejudiced maybe, but I didn't see it, so I'm not sure.
Also OP, just out of curiosity- do you think it is OK when other religions (such as Muslims) are bashed by the media? |

Don't exactly know what you are getting at because like a lot of Catholics he is pro choice and for gay rights too. |

Those types are what are known as "posers". Often times they become real catholics as they get closer to death. That is usually when Gods laws mean more to them and their stupid political opinions no longer matter. |

I got the same schtick from my priest and the nuns. The fact is that U.S. Catholics' views - regardless of what the church says - are very similar to the country at large. For all of the doctrine, the fact is that the church always has and still does tolerate ambiguity in its ranks. For example, Haiti is 90% Catholic and 100% voodoo. No one has made any effort to change that. The Church knows that most people have sex before marriage, and that most use birth control. Everyone knows who the gay parishoners are, but your priest does nothing about it. The Church has not even dealt decisively with African priests who have "wives". It does not fight this as long as people don't openly challenge its authority. In fact, 75% of U.S. Catholics believe that you can defy the Church's teaching on contraception and still be a good Catholic. That means that three quarters of us disagree with the proposition that you make, namely that Catholics who defy the Church on a matter of social doctrine are not real Catholics. It may give you some comfort to believe that these people will be scared back into obedience, but the data does not suggest that. Adherence to doctrine is generational, but as time goes by the younger generations have shown little tendency to move back on matters of social issues as they get older. In fact, both Catholics and Americans at large in every age cohort are becoming more accepting of gay marriage as time goes by. This is the opposite of your prediction. The Church is full of contradiction. If you haven't figured that out by now, it's a good time to start. By the way, of those priests who fed me that doctrine, two of them are out and they are married. They would be good priests if not for a policy that had nothing to do with the word of God but of a pope. |
