  1. for a jesuit, he couldn't be more plain in his writing. if others need to spin his words to rationalize what he says, then so be it.

     

     

    "liberals" come in all shapes, sizes and beliefs. many are christians and are actually opposed to abortion and some even to contraception. interestingly, this pope has commissioned a poll of catholics on social and especially sexual issues. that's a paradigm shift and an implicit recognition, i believe, that you can be part of the church and not agree with all doctrine.

     

    That may be the way the church works but it ain't the way commies work. Commies would be more than happy to let the Pope help them get their ridiculous economic system in place. Once that happened and they had control, how tolerant do you think they would be about listening to the Pope on anything else?

     

    Trick question; they would have already killed him and banned religion.

     

    The doofus reporter from Slate couldn't even get through the first two sentences of his poorly written article without pointing out his underlying disdain for religion. Two sentences. The Pope is generally tasked with being a pretty smart guy on many topics, but topic #1 is Jesus; economic systems are somewhere down the list. The Slate know-it-all says the Pope doesn't know crap about Jesus, but................he is almost as smart as Jack Krugman when it comes to Economics.

     

    The Pope said:

     

    consequently, they reject the right of states, charged with vigilance for the common good, to exercise any form of control.

     

    He clearly pointed out his perceived risk of the powerful rich holding to many of the cards and effectively controlling government. He also displayed a fear that too much power in too few hands would result in corruption and greed. Where in any of his writing did he say that if that excess of power was given to government overlords, rather than corporate overloads, that the results would be better?

     

    I'll save you some reading. He didn't.

     

    The doofus from Slate interpreted it that way and wrote his own belief set into his crappy article.

  2. I'm curious about the Pope's interpretation.

     

    Christ himself, based on the Christian belief system, was all-powerful and capable of creating miracles. Yet even with his devine powers did not force other men to his will. He simply instructed others that it was his desire that they should give; without compelling them by force.

     

    Given the gift of free will by God, men are allowed to please or displease Him as they see fit.

     

    Given that Christ himself did not compell men by force to do his bidding, what makes any man think that this is God's desire for them?

     

    I think you're probably actually more curious about the interpretation of the Pope's interpretation than you are about the Pope's actual interpretation.

  3. Does this mean all liberals will now accept Christ as their savior, or are they all just accepting the one little bit from a man of Christ because it fits your ideology?

     

    Pope Francis' latest apostolic exhortation covers a number of topics, but really lights into libertarian economics. There's a lot of stuff about Jesus in his thinking that I can't really sign on to but

     

    Above are the first couple of lines of the article so my guess is nope.

  4. Yes, I know. However, the mob didn't get much past fingers when their little party was broken up and she was taken under the protection of the women in the area. It's all good.

     

    Welcome to the dirt bag list. Tell Joe the Six Pack hello.

     

    Jesus.

  5.  

     

    Well she did make the mistake of running a story that paints the Chosen One's administration in a negative light. She would have been better served faking documents about Bush.

     

    I'd still !@#$ the **** out of her though.

     

    Dude; seriously. You do know what happened to her right?

  6. ah well, that can of tuna was getting pretty old anyway.

     

    I was not sure about tuna sandwiches because tuna are big mean fish and it could be more like revenge against the man nullifying the racist impact of the bread.

     

    Now that you mention that the tuna was in a can though...............cans is another word for boobs which is sexism. Your tuna may very well come from nice cans but if you mention that you will make broads uncomfortable. If you don't mention it, it will make them uncomfortable by its overt omission.

     

    No tuna unless it is fresh or from a jar. Jugs are also unacceptable.

  7. I get it -Air go from self of steam

     

    Air go means that because of this...then that. In other words because John Kerry is a loser, we got the bad end of this deal.

     

    What it really says is that because JK is a loser, there is no other way. In other words, air go means "the end of the story". That is the origin of the phrase. It is as if the air is out of the room and it is all over. If there was nor air...."air go" we would all die and there is no doubt about that because we need air. Without it there are no other possibilities. When John Kerry negotiates a deal, there are no other possibilities except we get shafted. Get it?

     

    There is another phrase called "a fate a comm plea" which is Greek and translates to "even if you get a bunch of people to ask nicely you are still stuck with the outcome".

  8. Keystone is personal politics as the Koch brothers have been pricks and must be punished, the Saudis will never get nukes, Israel? Bennie has also been a prick- the end game will be Obama cashing in after his presidency.

     

    If you are to understand the things you'll have to understand the war between Neo-cons and Breskinski-ites also the right-wing and left-wing of corporate political influence.

     

    I think everyone makes this too complex. John Kerry negotiated the deal. Air go it is a bad deal because John Kerry is a loser.

  9. Cheez-Its?

     

    They are square shaped and thus offensive to nerds. How did you not know this?

     

     

    Chicken soup?

     

    All those stories about mom and grandma giving someone chicken soup when they were sick.....where were dad and grandpa? Out hunting? Fixing the car in the garage? Mega-sexist food.

     

     

    Gnocchi?

     

    The Roman Imperialist stole this food from the Middle East so it is very racist and may eventually cause World War G.

     

    Wildschweingulasch?

     

    I am certain enough that this is not a food and actually just a random assortment of letters that I did not even dignify it with a Google search.

     

     

    Pierogi?

     

    Is this a trick question? Because I already answered about sauerkraut.

     

    Is black forest ham on white bread diverse enough?

     

    I think it is a good try but there are no forests in Somalia, only desserts and terrorists so nope.

  10.  

     

    Better than offering her rettata,

     

    Is rettata racist? How about tandoori chicken? MREs? Shark fin soup? Spanikopita? Springbok biltong?

     

    If it went over people's heads please realize what you would have if you put one too many s's in tapas and accidentally hit the space bar in the middle.... HIGHLY sexist.

     

    Anyway I do not appreciate the "rettata" jokes. I have not made that in a while and may try it again. Go Cardinals.

     

    Tandoori chicken has the word "tan" which could be taken as a racist word.

     

    MREs is an anachronism beginning with M.....so is MILF....sexist....and milk is sexist on several levels.

     

    How would you feel about shark fin soup if you came to America on a raft from Cuba?.....................Thought so you racist.

     

    Spanikopita is I think a word made up by you but sounds an awful lot like spank it on pita which is vulgar.

     

    Springbok biltong is from the home of apart hide so duh.

  11. The writer put in the word "racist." The dude being interviewed didn't say that. It was more like being culturally sensitive or something to the kids and the writer changed it for effect and the college kid picked it up on it so his College Fix could have a "news" story.

     

     

    Anyway, racism is the really stupid thing

     

    Isn't it true though that the name College Fix in itself is harmful because:

     

    A. The word fix has an x in it and x rated movies exploit chicks and

    2. Fix implies a drug based culture which of course disproportionately harms racial minorities?

     

    I think this publication ought to take a look at its own sins before it criticizes others.

     

    Notice I did not say "examine" its own sins as that would be harmful to women.

     

    by my experience, tapas would be the epitome of the all-inclusive, non-offensive food item. they bring out a different plate of food for you with every round of drinks you order. in just one sitting we were brought peel & eat shrimp, diced octopus with onion, pepper, and tomato in vinaigrette, potato chips, potato omelette, ham croquettes, paella, and serrano ham. I have an incredible time every time I go to Madrid.

     

    Try telling an attractive woman in the work place that you would like to have some tapas and you'll be out of a job unless you're Bill Clinton.

  12. Frankfurters?

     

    Resembles something which may make women feel inferior....sexist.

     

    Kielbasa?

     

    Otherwise known as Polish sausage....Polish people are constantly badgered for something which should really be attributed to Canadians...discriminatory.

     

     

     

    Green beans almondine?

     

    It rhymes with itself which is a plus....but it if French and green and frogs are green and French people being called frogs is.................racist.

     

     

    Candied ants?

     

    What kind of candy? Plus, gross.

     

    Sea bass with lemon?

     

    Is this a trick question? Are you trying to get some lemony racism in there with something over my head?

  13. Look, I'm sorry, everything you're describing is under Pediatric Care

     

    I've been a nurse for 35 years...............there is no male/maternity care, no matter what type of Modern Family you have.

     

     

     

    .

     

    Have you ever been on AJZepp's web show?

     

    What about if a guy got implants so he could breast feed and then had them removed when the kid turned 7? Maternity.

     

    I'm just saying that there is a lot of stuff so people should be covered.

  14. Highland grouse?

     

    Sounds like someone constantly complaining which which is a stereotype of Jewish people..........racist.

     

     

    Sauerkraut?

     

    Since when is a pissed of German NOT racist. Geez

     

     

     

    Tapas?

     

    I have no idea what that is.

     

     

    Kimchee?

     

    VERY VERY sexist and if I have to explain I will get banned.
