The Vatican has urged all Catholics to stop donating money to Amnesty International, accusing the human rights group of promoting abortion.To be honest, I don't understand why this is only happening now.
When I was a kid at Catholic primary school... the nuns made us understand there was absolutely no wiggle room on stuff like this. Shit... I got strapped for throwin' snowballs at recess.
We were terrified of mortal sins... which probably explains why I'm a lapsed Catholic and have chosen to raise my boy without it.
I guess I've never understood why Paul Martin, who is nominally RC... was never taken to task over supporting SSM. I mean, you either drop the rule against the whole (and let's remember there were more than a few RC homo clergy messes) can of homosexual worms... or you clobber people when they cross the line.
Nobody respects a wishy-washy leader, secular or otherwise.
