I hate Pope Benedict Joseph Ratziner or what ever his name is. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing Pope John Paul did many good and bad things. The worst thing he did is hand pick his successor. Many can say that it was the conclave that chose him and if you believe in Catholic dogma that it was the Holy Spirit. However I think he threatened the cardinals into choosing him when he gave the eulogy when the real pope died.
He is a watchdog of Catholic faith says the press. A theologian versed in many languages for the Church. For me he is evil, an inquisitor an Antichrist. Most of all a , "German Shepard" He sees that the the Catholic Church is falling apart and he doesn't to a thing about it. As a saying in Spanish goes, "He sees the Tempest and doesn't kneel."He doesn't have the charisma, respect or commitment his predecessor had for certain issues. He is also very boring and judgemental. How the hell (excuse the expression) does he want us to listen to him. All he does his is publish boring dictums and point fingers. Not even Harry Potters escapes his wrath.
He says that Mexican legislators are excommunicated for approving abortions in Mexico City before the first trimester. So what does this mean? According to Wikipedia, "Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive or suspend membership in a religious community. " First he is meddling in a foreign county's international affairs. And not just any country it is a country that had a love affair with his predecessor. He is hindering these legislator's job. He is even causing some of them spiritual anguish. Excuse me but that's not very Christian.
Who is Mr Ratizinger to excommunicate? Didn't he hide many of the pedophilia cases that the Church is now infamous for? He called the Turkish people terrorists. Now what is he going to do have us burned at the stake? Doesn't he understand progress? He worries more about saying that there is no limbo or purgatory. He is writing a biography about Jesus Christ. I thought that he already had one its called the New Testament. Now we are free to think. Spanish philosopher Jose Savater is so right, "A Theocracy is not a Democracy."

tania, his holiness is the vicar of christ on earth and as such it is his right and duty to excommunicate those that in his considered opinion merit it. c'mon, this is basic catholicism we're talking here. abortion is a sin in the eyes of the church, so there's an argument to be made that the pontiff has to do that.
and it seems that hiding all the priest pedophilia cases was handled by the local bishops. if you want to pin the blame for that on a pope, look to john paul II, who did indeed issue an apology for the church's responsibility for having done that.

just the other day he said that native americans were not properly evaglized and that they did not know how to express their faith the asshole had to apologize after that remark. I dont understand time magazine's criteria he was included as one of the 100 most influencial figures of 2007. That deserves a big booo. -

why do people need to belong to an organized religion? what is the attraction in believing absurd fairy tales? -
taniatanfa said on Jul 02, 2007....
and now this guy wants us to go back to masses in Latin? and I ask so what was Vatican II good for ?
I am only criticing that pope in particular I dont like his ways. I dont want to criticize the faith of anyone of any religion I think that we are free to belive what we ant as long as we are tolerant and non intrusive. Thats why I Dont like Ratzinger!
