SEX ABUSE SCANDAL CARDINAL HEADS TO ROME TO VOTE FOR POPE

SEX ABUSE SCANDAL CARDINAL HEADS TO ROME TO VOTE FOR POPE


Despite previously being forced to step down as Archbishop of Los Angeles for allegedly covering up sex abuse by Catholic priests, Cardinal Roger Mahony is headed to the Vatican to select the next pope. Mahony noted on his Twitter that he will be tweeting from Rome and asked for "prayers" from his followers.

At Culture Shock we are familiar with what this is all about.

Psychologist WILLIAM R COULSON knows full well what happened back in the 60's and 70's when TMP, too much psychology came to call on the church... first the Catholics then the Protestants.

Coulson admits, "it was the influence of psychology, set aside the Commandments was our advice and get in touch with the feelings. Well that's only good advice if we aren't sinners, but all of us are."

BBC: LA Cardinal Mahony 'stripped of duties' over sex abuse
A retired Los Angeles cardinal accused of mismanaging a child sex abuse crisis has been stripped of all administrative and public duties by his successor.

Retired Cardinal Roger Mahony, 76, has apologised for his "failure", Archbishop Jose Gomez said on Thursday.

The Los Angeles archdiocese, the largest in the US, has released thousands of pages of files on priests accused of child molestation.

African-American Christians waver over vote

African-American Christians waver over vote


"When President Obama made the public statement on gay marriage, I think it put a question in our minds as to what direction he's taking the nation," said the Rev. A.R. Bernard, founder of the predominantly African-American Christian Cultural Center in New York. Bernard, whose endorsement is much sought-after in New York and beyond, voted for Obama in 2008. He said he's unsure how he'll vote this year.

Mark 9:38-41 For he who is not against us is for us.
I know that many of my black brothers and sisters are disappointed in the first black president, Barack Obama.
If he were for us and followed the Christian commandments and precepts of God the narrative on this mans presidency would be remarkably different. We would be looking at a George Washington, an Abraham Lincoln, FDR, or a Ronald Reagan but that is not his legacy.
That sadly is the bitter truth...
He's not for us who believe in the Word of God and that God's Word is unchanging.
He is not for us as he charts a course favoring Same Sex Marriage and the rest.
He's not for us if he believes in a woman's right to choose to terminate a pregnancy in the latest moments of the third trimester.
As a Protestant I never thought that I would be voting for a Mormon. But I will. We must!
You see I've been praying about this and the Lord showed me the Scripture above Mark 9:38-41, Jesus said, "for he who is not against us is for us".
Romney is a Mormon but He's not against us. His life with his wife, his children and grandchild speaks volumes to that chapter and verse.
I don't believe that a Romney presidency will intrude or trample on our freedom or the Constitution or God's Word. What you believe would not be called hate speech.
So my Black Brethren please rise to the occasion for such a time as this.

Americans United Asks IRS To Investigate El Paso Church That Urged Parishioners To Vote Against Obama

Americans United Asks IRS To Investigate El Paso Church That Urged Parishioners To Vote Against Obama


Church-State Watchdog Group Says St. Raphael’s Church May Have Violated Federal Law With Election Intervention

Americans United for Separation of Church and State today asked the Internal Revenue Service to investigate an El Paso Catholic church that called for the defeat of President Barack Obama.

St. Raphael Catholic Church ran a notice in a church bulletin dated Aug. 5 that reads, “I am asking all of you to go to the polls and be united in replacing our present president with a president that will respect the Catholic Church in this country. Please pass this on to all of your Catholic friends.”

THIS IS A FIRST AMMENDMENT FIGHT AND THIS CHURCH DID NOTHING TO VIOLATE THE CONSTITUTION. AS A MATTER OF FACT THE IRS RULING IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL!
GO AHEAD, MAKE MY DAY HERE!
