What do the Pope and Mother Theresa have in common?

[littlejoe]

Neither one are available to become your nominee for president.

Many of you seem to be searching for someone who is perfect. I see it in your threads. Someone who is "without political sin".

I don't believe there is such an animal.

Would you like to be judged as harshly as you are judging whichever candidate isn't yours?

I know I would never be able to live up to those standards.

1. I wouldnt vote for either one of them. n/t

if i wanted to vote for pro-life rightwingers i would vote for Bush.

[Walt Starr]

12. I'm with you, if the Dems put either of those two up

I would definitely be going third party this year.

Edited to add: I think Bush is closer to perfect than either of them. I despise Mother Theresa more than I despise Bush.

[littlejoe]

16. Nice tactic, Walt, but again, you are off-subject.

[ablbodyed]

2. It's a pretty BIG assumption to....

say that the Pope and Mama Teresa are without political sin.

[littlejoe]

4. So then neither one of them will get your write-in vote?

[jonnyblitz]

6. I would actively campaign against them!!

BIG TIME

[littlejoe]

13. Then you need to change your peace symble logo

to a cemetary plot, with a headstone that reads RIP America!

[Catholic Sensation]

17. so you supported the Iraq War Resolution?

because the Pope was against it, and if you'll campaign against a man who helped bring down the oppresive soviet union, the war in iraq, tried to heal the wounds inflicted upon Jews by Catholics, and a host of other remarkable deeds, I can only assume you're against these things. I can post in absolutes too.

Granted their views on abortion are out-dated, but the Pope and his followers do A LOT more good than harm, and you only proved how ignorant you are by posting this crap.

[littlejoe]

18. Please point out just exactly which absolutes are in my post.

I'm confounded if I can find any. Please read it again carefully.

[Catholic Sensation]

20. explain why you would "actively campaign against them... big time"

I'm going to guess simply because they are prominent religious figures, and because they're simply religious figures, you dislike them, because for reasons I can't quite comprehend, people on this forum equate religion with something bad all because some of the prominent characters in religion are idiots (who don't represent their base all that well).

If I'm wrong, explain how, and I'll gladly apologize, but considering how you wrote the post, I don't think I am.

Till then, the "neo progressive" means, to me, someone who wants the country to progress socially, economically, and politically not caring if the policy is "liberal" or "conservative." Oh, and I refuse to be politically correct when eviscerating people I don't like (short of using slurs).

[littlejoe]

19. Please tell me, just what exactly is a "Neo-Progressive?"

[Malva Zebrina]

3. so how do I reply to this question honestly

without being deleted?

You know and I know, if I reply honestly re Mother
Theresa , a vaunted, actually cannonized saint, or even mention the slightest negative comment about the Pope that my post will be deleted in an instant for anti- something or other comments.

So--no comment! LOL

But a good question anyhow

[Feanorcurufinwe]

5. They're also both Catholic

It's just the first thing that popped into my head.

[littlejoe]

7. Don't flame me over my selection of names, please. It was the

best I could come up with on the spur of themoment. Sorry!

[Paulie]

9. Shall I support the other headline canidate (the one your not supporting)?

Since you don't care because no one is perfect?

I'm not done with the primaries yet, thank you.

March 16th baby!!!

[littlejoe]

10. So, if I were to tell you I supported Edward, you would vote Kerry?

[Feanorcurufinwe]

14. I didn't mean to flame you, and I'm not offended

Here's an old Mother Theresa bashing thread, if you're interested:

no doubt there are threads bashing the pope as well.

[arcos]

8. I would NEVER, EVER, vote for Karol Wojtyla for President...

:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

[littlejoe]

11. A nice tactic, but not very subtle, changing the course of debate

to feed the need of trashing the pope, instead of addressing the crux of my theme here.

[corporatewhore]

15. wouldnt vote for them n/t
