I don't agree that it is taking away your religious freedom to insist it not interfere with the rights of others who do not believe as you do. And that's ALL I will say.The entire e-mail is copied in Post 7. It might be better if you read it and explained why YOU think it's a mockery of Catholicism. Rather than just spreading propaganda.Ask the author of the story I posted, whose title is 'Kaine: No Apology Necessary for Clinton Team’s Mockery of Catholicism'.Time to play: You cant explain!
Starring the OP.
Todays question is: How did they mock Catholicism?
Annnnd go!
Podesta never said a word for or against Conservative Catholicism, though, Compost, and neither did Palmieri. Halpin wrote to him and let off some steam. I don't like at all what Halpin said (and I'm not even Catholic) but everyone has bad days combating political foes.Dear Old Lady, I am too much of a lady to suggest you stuff your opinion up your whatnot. Here's the thing. Podesta is Clinton's boy. The email about reeducating Catholics is what it is. I'll spell it out. It's an outrage. Catholics are doing that thing known as Freedom. You don't like their beliefs, tough bleep. That the staff of a woman running for potus is talking about this at all should frighten everyone. Even leftists. You know. Today it's Catholics. Tomorrow it may be Baptists. The next day it may be Jehoviah Witness. Eventually, they will get around to squelching something YOU believe in. Maybe even Muslims.Re: Conservative Catholicism

Excellent point. They can throw around "Thomistic" thought and "subsidiarity" and sound sophisticated because no one knows what the hell they're talking about.

I imagine they think it is the most socially acceptable politically conservative religion. Their rich friends wouldn't understand if they became evangelicals.

Ken Auletta's latest piece on Murdoch in the New Yorker starts off with the aside that both Murdoch and Robert Thompson, managing editor of the WSJ, are raising their kids Catholic. Friggin' Murdoch baptized his kids in Jordan where John the Baptist baptized Jesus. Many of the most powerful elements of the conservative movement are all Catholic (many converts) from the SC and think tanks to the media and social groups. It's an amazing bastardization of the faith. They must be attracted to the systematic thought and severely backwards gender relations and must be totally unaware of Christian democracy.
WikiLeaks - The Podesta Emails
Really? Okay, "severely backwards gender relations" is harsh. Who was it said by? Did Podesta or Palmieri agree with him? Was Clinton involved in this rant in any way? Is this an official stance of the Democratic Party, the way conversation therapy is on the Republican agenda? I agree with Kaine. This one individual, Halpin, can have his nasty opinion, same as you can have yours about Muslims. Please remember Clinton never said a word about any of this and was not even in on the conversation. So stuff this conversation up your ***.
That e-mail is not an official stance and I don't believe liberals actually want to take away anyone's freedom of religion. And no, I don't want to get in an argument about who can bake a cake.
I don't blame you...it's taking away religious freedom you said liberals don't and are not doing. A quandary or dilemma
