"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Atheist More Catholic than the Pope?
Actually, no; however, Allahpundit makes a good point, and I share his disappointment over the tepidness of the Vatican’s response to Obama’s Notre Dame speech.
i am a catholic, and am highly disappointed at the vatican's lukewarm response. however they usually leave these opinions up the locals. there's the rub
I was recently informed that, having been baptised in the Catholic Church AND being pro-Life, I'm more Catholic than some who claim to follow the tenets of the Faith, such as a certain politician in Texas - among others.
I'm very much a lapsed Catholic for now I'm afraid Paco, but we have an Archbishop here in Sydney who inspires me, a sort of John Howard of the Church, and I think I would follow him to hell and back if I could. His name is Cardinal Pell, and he may be nominated for Pope one day.
I'm not Catholic, and I was amazed (and disappointed) at the Vatican's response.

ReplyDeleteIt would be amusing, if not so sad.
