***Socialists mainly share the belief that capitalism unfairly concentrates power and wealth among a small segment of society that controls capital, creates an unequal society, and does not provide equal opportunities for everyone in society***

If that indeed is "mainly" the belief of socialists, then why the heck don't you get off your egalitarian and wealth distributing ARSE and --through good old ingenuity, hard work, effort, dedication or through actual personal generosity-- CREATE the sources of wealth that you can then distribute at your leisure among those no good slackers and idiots you so want to bring up to your own level --whatever you fantasize that level may be.

The problem with liberals is that they do...

Please do a bit more reading! It was muslims - people of negroid race - who captured and sold blacks that eventually ended up as slaves in America.

White, mostly protestant, plantation owners bought them and used them. But it was whites also who fought and died to end segregation in the US, while in African countries muslims are still enslaving blacks.

Worse yet, in the majority of african countries the exploitation, violence, savagery and starvation of black against black has been unrelenting since colonialism ended. All one has to do is remember Idi Amin in Uganda, eating the flesh of his enemies or burying them in ant holes to be slowly eaten by them. What about Mugabe, wrecking a flourishing economy and subjecting...

***Government must look out for the interest of the country, not the individual.***


Killer (what an appropriate name for someone with your line of 'reasoning'), I'd like to see YOU break into a cold sweat when YOUR life is hanging by a thread, and YOU are the individual whose interest the government must make the decision on, as to whether to prolong YOUR life, or pull the plug because YOU are no longer worth the cost.

Sez David: ***Here's the National leaders in divorce;
Yadda, yadda...

Hmmm....lotta 'bible belters in there***

Hate to break it to ya Davey, but the divorces happenin' in the bible belt are mainly from the morally depraved, disoriented, disillusioned, destitute crowd that has been fleeing the disaster in progress that is Mexifornia.
Hee, hee!

*** There is nothing wrong with Harvard that 15 bulldozers couldn't fix in about 3 days work***

Unfortunately for America to rid itself from this anti-American, anti-white, pro-communist pandemic it would have to raze about 90% of its institutions of higher learning. An overwhelming number of its lecterns have been hijacked by radicals masquarading as 'professors.'

Department chairs and tenured 'scholars' now presiding over class-rooms and lecture halls are remnants of the drug addled and self-indulgent unions of the hippie movement, as well as from Viet-Nam era and black-lib agitators. It was only a matter of time before they and their offspring would reach the places where they could indoctrinate our children in order...

emitted by Scott from OH can be compared by those who know Church history, Patristics and Apologetics as a McDonald's value meal is to a meal in any of Thomas Keller's restaurants: all calories, bad cholesterol and grease vs. documented culinary artistry.

For starters Scott may blather until he turns blue in the face trying to expound his self-perceived exegetical superiority in double spaced 'clarity,' yet his efforts cannot obscure the fact that:

a) The book he WORSHIPS and quotes in a selective and self-serving manner was given him by the Catholic Church.
No amount of spin, disavowal or chagrin by prots at not having been at Hippo and Carthage, and not having invented themselves until 15 centuries too late to have...

**The left doesn't care about creating wealth?
I'm sorry, but that's just stupid**

You are right Phylo, they did it so well in Russia, No. Korea, Cuba, and the whole of the pre-fall of the Berlin Wall Eastern Bloc that millions of people there were just elated to be under the communist choke-hold. You could say they were, and are all chomping at the bit to remain enslaved.

I wonder why it is that the only countries to have progressed since then are the ones that have adopted a mixture of state control and capitalism, as in China, Vietnam, etc.

As for the Euro-socialism the left so craves, the reason that works is because Europe is used to frugality in a way America does not even begin to comprehend. Except...

**MsTee
I too appreciate your defense of the faith. However, I happen to know a bit about Rich D. and find him to be a very intelligent and holy man.**

If I misjudged his words I apologized, however, Rich D's words on the referenced post seemed a mite skewed and un-historical.
eg:
"Traditionally, the Catholic Church was generally on the side of conservative parties and governments in Europe, and opposed to liberalism, socialism, and all doctrines further left."

**The official church was on the side of tyrants in Europe (validating them as rulers) who generally supported the RCC with money, armies, and oppressed the poor to get payment for official support.**

It would be nice if this person would, or even...

Would someone mind giving this guy some Thorazine, wipe the frothing off his face, putting him in a well padded white room so he does not hurt himself, and then translate his incoherent rantings... That is, if they are in any way worthy of a minute's waste?

Just trying to deflect the spit balls invariably fired in our direction whenever anything Catholic is discussed.

Had I unlimited time I'd reply to other highly offensive and misguided posters who depend on hearsay, slander and traditional prot misconceptions to spout off their screeds.

As for CA, not all peeps there are H'wood, Castro district, Newsom, Boxer, Feinstein, Villaraigosa type moroons. There are definitely many of us who keep the state from falling into the ocean. Just in case though, I keep a home...
