Mr. Kenney, such loyal and pious defense, the same obfuscation mouthed by the fearless catholic leader, christ’s living representative, the rock, the leader of the flock, the “take this cup from me” saviour of the face of the roman catholic chritstian churh. His denial of responsibility is perfectly corporate ceo, and your attempt to slide the truth of the injury to victims behind the propaganda Mr Hitler Youth (er…his holiness who gave the nazi salute along with many cardinals and bishops) cynically presents, is weak.

i do not know what you mean by “u can put an ism at the end of almost anything”.
i still evaluate that whatever ideology one may espouse, it can be evaluated as an ism.
the two words are synnonimous. ism cannot be a suffix for hunger , running, walking, talking, etc. fad being an ideology , a belief system may be called “fadism”.
ideologies, to me, mean acceptance of ideas, wishes, (mis)teachings.
in other words, we are on the level of thinking/feeling/talking and not on level of doing, seeing, hearing, smelling, touching, or tasting.
i thought i had made it clear that only to our wishes we may add an ism, or actualy call it an ism.
one can’t compare an ism with a cough, hunger, etc. one can compare a hunger with another hunger but not with capitalism, theism, zionism, catholicism, etc.
but we can campare any ism with any other; and if we would do, we would espy many traits that they all share: hatred for other isms and their respective followers.
they all wage warfare for land and to gain more followers; all ideologies are exremely intolerant, etc.
now, when this is taken in view we gain knowledge why zionist are
so ferocious against all palestinians. it is not because they are threat to jews or judaism; they are a thret to zionism and they may with help from world eventually destroy it. thank u.
all teach falsehoods, etcetc.
hope this clarifies the idea about ideas. if u would ask what ideology i accept, i would say at thi time i accept humnismu. but, listen please i tell you waht i think is good for us and what is bad for us.

Hey Kenny. You posted: ” He has always been a labrador, but even a labrador will defend his turf!”

I read somewhere that this particular lab when a pup was in Hitler Youth.

Corroborate or beg to differ, you?

Can somebody tell me what a “tithing Catholic” is? As distinguished from what other kind of Catholic?
By the way, Benedict was never the “rottweiler” the press made him out to be. He is rather stiff when he speaks in foreign languages, but I saw several interviews with him in German when he was a cardinal and the difference was like night and day! He has always been a labrador, but even a labrador will defend his turf!
Also, has anybody noticed that according to the criteria he laid down for intervention in his UN speech, both the Afghan and Iraq wars are contrary to Catholic morality? As for his criticism of countries that intervene unilaterally in other countries, I doubt if many people thought he was referring to Papua-New Guinea!

Sorry Balkas, but, you can put ism at the end of just about anything, so I don’t agree with you on that point. But, Weitzel did a great job of deciphering for us, how justice was replaced by a lot of hot air. And oh the currents of hot air that surround us today. I only hope I can muster the fortitude for ongoing engagement in solidarity movements, awareness campaigns, et cetera. Maybe someday turning evening news won’t engage my gag reflex.

catholicism is just another ism just like zionism, imperialism, judaism, fascism, nazism, capitalism.
we could also call all religions “godism”; thus think of them as an ism
we know that every ism wants to eliminate every other ism thru wafare, etc. All isms i know of teach falsehoods; spread hatred, intolerrance, lies, halftruths, etc.
zionism an d nazism are,, to me, most bestial. i’ m a strong democratic socialist; this ism is most humane, tho not perfect because somany people do not accept it. thanx
