Thanks Bill. I don't know how any person that is pro-life could vote for this baby killer!

May God bless George Bush!

well, that pretty firmly settles the debate as to whether or not under his current standing kerry could ever be considered catholic...

I find it quite amazing that these same people who support Kerry (who is pro-choice) are the same people who are protesting the war.

Our current military is strictly a voluntary army - they were not drafted, and most of these guys 'choose' to stay in Iraq when they can come home.

Babies are conceived without choice - yet these same liberals have no problem with aborting innocent babies. The media has no problem showing the coffins of our dead troops. Perhaps the media should show the trash bags of murdered fetuses.

The media has no qualms about showing the killings that go on in war. Perhaps they should be airing documents showing what actually takes place in abortion clinics - let our young people see that abortion is not just a word - let the world actually see an abortion procedure - perhaps, just perhaps, the world would not be so pro- choice.

The irony of anti-war, but pro-choice never fails to amaze me.

Ah, there's nothing like reading the Sacramento Bee and San Francisco Chronicle in the morning and seeing a picture of the big abortion rally in DC. My 11 year old boy was studying the picture, which looked like a Nazi rally, and something caught his eye. He looked at me incredulously and asked: Is that a priest? I looked carefully and yes right up front, holding the banner, next to Madeline Albright, Barbara Boxer et. al, was what looked to be a catholic priest. How Nice!

A lot of Protestant ministers wear clericals now, so don't jump to conclusions.

You're right of course Bill. But what do you want to bet that there were some Catholic priests and nuns in the crowd. I know, too cynical. Think happy thoughts Brian, happy, happy, happy....

COURAGEOUS PRIEST COUNTERS ABORTION MARCHERS

Read below a witness to a Father Reynolds who prayed made without stopping made the sign of the cross, for hours, as abortion rally marchers filed past him hurling epithets and making obscene gestures.

"The best way I can explain what I witnessed at today's so-called March for Women's Lives is to reference the movie, The Exorcist. When the possessed child, Regan, is confronted by priests who have come to expel the evil spirit from her, she reacts in shockingly vulgar, profane ways.

That is how thousands of 'pro-choice' demonstrators reacted to the presence of a lone priest blessing and praying for them along the march route.

Father Reynolds stood for hours this afternoon on Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, in front of the Navy Memorial. Other members of the clergy and pro-life activists were spread out along the same block. Almost nonstop, he made the sign of the cross with his right arm while speaking to the marchers offering blessings and prayers.

The response was nothing short of satanic. Father Reynolds was cursed at and flipped off by hundreds of marchers, many of whom sported Kerry stickers. Many other marchers mocked the sign of the cross. Some denounced God while others denied His existence.

Marchers screamed at the top of their lungs against the priest. He was repeatedly accused of being a child molester by those who support the murder of children.

One woman walked up to the priest and stood just on the other side of the police-manned fence separating the sides. She made the sign of the cross, but finished by thrusting her hips forward at the priest while she dramatically grabbed her crotch.

All the while, 'pro-choice' marchers were walking behind our lines with the permission of police. This caused me and another man to stand guard by Father Reynolds because the 'pro-choice' marchers kept harassing him and the police were slow to intervene.

I was wishing I had a video camera to document this. To see Kerry supporters acting in such a revealing and demonic manner was unsettling. Hour after hour passed of this vile, contemptuous behavior toward the priest. Noone on their side tried to rein in their evil behavior. It was the Democratic party at its most real.

The last group in the march was a bunch of homosexuals in drag who stopped and sang crude, profane songs meant to insult the clergy.

Father Reynolds blessed the men, as he had done thousands of others all afternoon. His faith was not shaken by the way he was treated today. He remained in good spirits throughout. His blessing arm was almost worn out, though :-)"

The good Reverend has my regards.

-- ZAROVE (ZAROFF3@JUNO.COM), April 30, 2004.


my humble respects to the good father who stood there and prayed for those, though they know not the magnatude of destruction they cause.

it very well could have been a catholic priest... and it wouldnt surprise me. seems the only time the liberal priests put on their clericals outside of mass is when they plan to do something they arent supposed to.

-- paul h (dontSendMeMail@notAnAddress.com), May 01, 2004.


The only person I can see in that picture who is definitely wearing a Clerical collar is a woman. She's standing almost in front of the banner on the right-hand-side of the picture as you look at it. Obviously she cannot be a Catholic priest. There MAY be a male wearing the collar on the left-hand side of the picture. On closer inspection of the collar that both the man and the woman appear to be wearing look likt that of a protestant minister, i.e. it doesn 't have the black section at either side of the white, but is white all the way around.

I wouldn't imagine a practising Catholic priest would risk excommunication by publicly supporting abortion.

p.s. If you save the picture to 'my pictures' you can enlarge and zoom in on it there, hence making the picture much clearer.

Catholics for choice alreayd exists and for soem unfahtomable reaosn sint excommunicated, so many Cahtolcis do, in fact, support Abortion. As do many Cahtolic Priests. especially in the poltically charged DC area.

-- ZAROVE (ZAROFF3@JUNO.COM), May 01, 2004.

nonsense Zarove, many Catholic priests do NOT support abortion. You're showing once again that you're an anti-Catholic bigot.

-- Life is precious (Life@IsAGiftFromGod.com), May 01, 2004.

Actually I learned of the Catholics for choice on this webstie by, I beleive, Bill Nelson.

I am not beign Bigoted in poining out that soem Catholics reject the Moral teahcigns of their chruch and elect to favour sickening practices such as Abortion. it is a fact that many people of all religions try to arp their religions to suit their own end.

Catholics are not immune to this, and as a reuslt, you get soem Catholic Prists who have bizzarre ideas.

On the other hand, your insistance that this pweson MUST be a protestnat clergy shows more Bigotry than mine, which is an attmept to curb bigotry. For all we know the person isnt even clergy.

Fruther, most {rotestnats do not wear a clerical collar.

Likewise, most protestnat denominations are opposed to abortion. Go on, do a head count.I dare you.

However, soem protestnats ar ein favour of abortion. Just liek soem catholcis are. Just liek the pictures revealed earlier in this thread, with signs like " I am Cahtolic and I am pro Choice!" and signs like " I am Cahtolic, I am a Nurxe, I take communion, and I am pro Chpoice." it is evident that soem Cahtolic Parishners do, in fact, support abortion, which is not to say that the Cahtolic cruc itsself supprots abortion, nor does it suggest ost Cahtolcis do, but some do, and they are wrong.

Likewise, just as their are some paishners that support this practice, so are their preists wo have spoken out in faour of the practice themselve. These preosts shoudl be delt with and disiplined, but sadly, in odern day America and europe, they seldom are.

This is hardly a Biggoted statement, as I wish no Chrisyain, cahtolic or otherwise, where in faour of murderign their own young, or allowign women the luzury o do so with hteir own young. However, we live in a real world, and as such we are forced to accept that some people do reject the basic premise of morality that they proffess when callignthemselves Cahtolic, and thus support abortion. This is not igotry on my part. Its a fact.

It is Bogotry to say that only protestnts woudl support abortion, and is uggestive that potestnats in general support Abortion, wich is an unjust comment yourself.

Zarove, you have a selective memory...

1. You said MANY Catholic priest support abortion. 2. I did not say that NO Catholics support abortion. 3. I did not say that ONLY protestants support abortion. 4. It is fairly obvious that the woman must be a protestant minister since we do not have Catholic female priests. 5. I spoke only truth about the type of collar a Catholic priest would normally wear. You might not like that fact, but I can't and won't lie for fear of you going into a rant. 6. I've read several anti-Catholic statements in some of your posts since you've been contributing to the forum. Not only on this thread.

Zarove, when you're responding to posts on a thread it's really not nice, nor becoming, to misrepresent what another poster has said in an attempt to discredit them.

{No, I don't.}-Zarove

1. You said MANY Catholic priest support abortion.

{This is correct. And many do. They even have a website. many does not mean most though.}-Zarove

2. I did not say that NO Catholics support abortion.

{Nonetheless you take offence at my own cmment, which was not meant to be anti-Catholic so muhc as to poitn out that oen shoudl be careful before castign blame.}-Zarove

3. I did not say that ONLY protestants support abortion.

{I said it was suggestive, and I wast ryign to prevent that line of reasoning.}-Zarove

4. It is fairly obvious that the woman must be a protestant minister since we do not have Catholic female priests.

{Or, its not a minister at all. Again, the point of my comments you seem to miss.}-Zarove

5. I spoke only truth about the type of collar a Catholic priest would normally wear. You might not like that fact, but I can't and won't lie for fear of you going into a rant.

{You are hte one ranting, and I hav met a Cahtolic Prest who wore a similar collar, when in a more relaxed environment.}-Zarove

6. I've read several anti-Catholic statements in some of your posts since you've been contributing to the forum. Not only on this thread.

{Like what? What have I wirtten thats particularly anti-Catholic?}- Zarove

Zarove, when you're responding to posts on a thread it's really not nice, nor becoming, to misrepresent what another poster has said in an attempt to discredit them.
