Ellen G. White: "When
the leading churches of the United States, uniting
upon such points of doctrine as are held by them in
common, shall influence the state to enforce their
decrees and to sustain their institutions, then
Protestant America will have formed an image of the
Roman hierarchy, and the infliction of civil
penalties upon dissenters will inevitably result."
(GC 445.1)
"When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across
the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when
she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with
Spiritualism, when, under the influence of this
threefold union, our country shall repudiate every
principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and
Republican government, and shall make provision for
the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions,
then we may know that the time has come for the
marvelous working of Satan, and that the end is
near." (5T 451.)

Vatican’s twisted priorities
The crusade rages on. The
"talking heads" on radio and TV express bewilderment
at the apparent recklessness of Republicans'
unpopular "culture wars," clearly not eager to
recognize that Republicans are enacting Roman
Catholic religious dogma. Is the Church of Rome
over-reaching at this stage of the crusade, or has
her time of ascendancy in America fully arrived?
Campaign against birth control is religious
fanaticism: "But by claiming
that Catholic conscience supersedes the rule of law,
Dolan and others are in effect imposing their
beliefs on the non-Catholic workers, patients and
students at hospitals and colleges affiliated with
the Church, an outcome that church-state separation
sought to prevent."
The GOP war on women:
"The health care of millions of women is needlessly
at stake. Yet the Republicans' presidential nominee
front-runners, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum, have
both pledged to deny funding for Title X and
organization's like Planned Parenthood -- along with
their promises to dismantle health care reform and
the broad care it would provide to all."
Romney, Santorum and archaic ideas on
fertility. (Exception taken to
'as a point-by-point guidebook to modern domestic
life it [the Bible is] nearly worthless.' Examples
bearing on family planning: I Timothy 5:8 -
implication, no more children than the
breadwinner(s) can support; 1 Cor. 7:3-5 - not a
prescription for procreation only): "And now, with
their crusade against birth control, the Catholic
bishops are helping to articulate and elevate that
unspoken and archaic value in public. Fertility is a
gift from God, they say."

From [D]@gmail.com]:
Per Pope Benedict, ". . . the word
"charity", in fact, was also used by the early
Church to indicate the Eucharist. The Eucharist is
the Sacramentum caritatis Christi, through which
Christ continues to draw us all to himself, as he
did when raised up on the Cross (cf. Jn 12:32).
Therefore, to "preside in charity" is to draw men
and women into a eucharistic embrace - the embrace
of Christ - which surpasses every barrier and every
division, creating communion from all manner of
differences. The Petrine ministry is therefore a
primacy of love in the eucharistic sense, that is to
say solicitude for the universal communion of the
Church in Christ. And the Eucharist is the shape and
the measure of this communion, a guarantee that it
will remain faithful to the criterion of the
tradition of the faith."
Pope: Everything in the Church rests on faith: the
sacraments, liturgy, evangelization, charity
There is nothing new about Catholic conservative
intellectuals -- think John Neuhaus, William F.
Buckley, Jr. What is new is the prominence that
these Catholic thinkers and leaders have come to
have within the domains of American politics that
are dominated by evangelical Protestants. Catholic
intellectuals have become to the American Right what
Jewish intellectuals once were to the American Left.
In the academy, on the Court, Catholic intellectuals
provide the theoretical discourse that shapes
conservative arguments across a whole range of
issues. Often these arguments have identifiable
Thomistic or Jesuitical sources, but most of the
time they enter the mainstream of political dialogue
as simply "conservative."
The Catholicization of the American Right
"This is not a political war at all. This is not a
cultural war. This is a spiritual war. And the
Father of Lies has his sights on what you would
think the Father of Lies would have his sights on: a
good, decent, powerful, influential country—the
United States of America. If you were Satan, who
would you attack in this day and age. There is no
one else to go after other than the United States,
and that has been the case now for almost two
hundred years, once America's preeminence was sown
by our great Founding Fathers."
True!! But
Santorum's delusion blinds him to the fact that he
is a part of the satanic plot:
Does Santorum Believe Obama Is Part of a Satanic
Plot?
Santorum's reversal of Rev. 13, "Largely missing in the discussion of Santorum’s
subscription to a supernatural cosmology is the fact
that he views American history as essentially a
struggle between “true Christians” like himself on
the one hand, and Beelzebub on the other, in which
the latter has already conquered academia and
mainline Protestantism, and is by inference
exercising his infernal control via the policies of
that noted former academic and mainline Protestant,
the President of the United States. Much of what
Santorum has to say about current events is heavily
colored by this “worldview,” most notably the belief
that the president and his devilish supporters are
laboring to wipe out “true” Christianity by forcing
its staunch defenders, from the U.S. Conference of
Bishops to innocent job-creators, to become
complicit in such idolatrous practices as the
slaughter of zygotes and the worship of the false
idols of reproductive rights and the Environmental
Earth-Goddess.":
Get Thee Behind Me!;
Catholic Doctrine and Reproductive Health - WHY THE
CHURCH CAN’T CHANGE
Separation is not a principle that just protected
the faithless as the letter of the Danbury Baptists
demonstrates. It protects all of us whether
religious or nonreligious. Indeed, government
entanglement with faith tends to reduce moral
precepts to political sound bites and bring religion
down to the level of a pushpoll:
The Third Party Interest: Religion on the Campaign
Trail; (Cf.
God On The Campaign Trail)
“'The separation of church and state means that the
government will not force one religious view or
doctrine upon the people,' Lynn’s testimony
observes. 'Expansion of the Obama compromise,
however, would allow one particular religious
doctrine to govern our public health policies at the
expense of the health, safety, and religious
conscience rights of the women they employ.'"
Religious Liberty Does Not Grant A License To Deny
The Rights Of Others, Americans United Tells
Congressional Panel
". . . they’ve settled upon a partisan
power play to subvert the
First Amendment rights they claim. Look,
nobody’s forced to use contraceptives; it’s an
individual’s choice, nobody else’s.
Religious organizations have
the right to believe anything they like, but not to
impose those beliefs upon others. By
essentially demanding a Catholic veto, the bishops
and their GOP allies would
impose their theological views upon millions of
American women as a condition of employment.
That’s not 'liberty,'
it’s liberty’s opposite; and precisely what the
First Amendment was written to prevent."
Catholic hypocrisy at its worst (Cf.
The deep roots of the war on contraception;
The Bishops Exposed: Wolves in Sheep's Clothing)
Under the direction of the US Conference of Catholic
Bishops and as predicted by A. T. Jones, under the
Free Exercise Clause of the Constitution, "the
papacy [is being] pushed upon this country in every
possible way and by every possible means and . . .
congress is prohibited from ever legislating in any
way to stop it." Indeed, congress is now enabling
the papacy's push upon the United States in
fulfillment of Rev. 13:14:

problems, USCCB president says

A very good analysis by a Roman Catholic -

Margaret Carlson
Catholics and Protestants united - “If the insurance
plan of a Catholic institution must cover services
it deems immoral, then such a healthcare plan is
offensive, plain and simple,” he [Bill Donohue,
president of the Catholic League for Religious and
Civil Rights] said.
Tony Perkins, president of Family Research
Council, agreed, saying that the new policy “does
nothing to change the fundamentally anti-religious,
anti-conscience and anti-life contraceptive
mandate.”:
