Happenings around the world aside from the United States and how we feel about it personally and how we believe it will affect our lives as Americans.

I'm still here

Not too sure about this new format though! I quess I'm a creature of habit...don't like my world rocked!  Since this is "World events" anyone else find it (for lack of a better word at the time ) bizarre that the women who became "Catholic Priests" yesterday on the boat in international waters will most likely be excommunicated from the church yet the male preists that molested young boys are still considered Catholic and some are allowed to continue on in a position of authority within the church? These are women who welcome all the Catholic church has to offer with the exception of "the no-female "clause...who want to be "good" spiritual people and they'll be given the heave-ho out the door. Weird sense of priorities if you ask me!

I too am a creature of habit and have already messed up on these silly boards but I am gettin there. As far as the Catholic church goes, I do think it is messed up to have the females excommunicated and the child molesters allowed to continue on. Really warped priorities there and tho some may disagree, the Bible does talk about that men AND women will prophesy. Not gonna go into details as any one can go read the Word for themselves. I believe God honors ALL his people who preach/teach his word but the child molesters are not respected by God. Lets hope that this organization will have some respect for those willing and in the right state of mind to teach the Word of God and not allow those who disgrace the church to be in control.

I'm here. Not sure about this format. It's kinda confusing to me.

 

The Catholic Church still remains the "Good ole boys' club" in my opinion. If women entered the picture, they wouldn't be able to keep their dirty little secrets among themselves anymore.

I agree, going to a court over a silly license plate! wonder what the out come would have been though, if it said "Jesusrocs"? or would that have been to offensive? personally, I really don't care what others have on their license plate and don't understand why others should be. definetly more imporant things to take some one to court over...................

You make a very good point regarding the Jesusrocs.  It is an opinion.  While everyone may not agree with the statement, there is nothing offensive about either statement.  I wonder how much taxpayer money was spent on that case and what more pressing cases could have been in front of the judge.
