Ratzinger warns that liberalism is Dangerous
On Monday, Ratzinger, who was the powerful dean of the College of Cardinals, used his homily at the Mass dedicated to electing the next pope to warn the faithful about tendencies that he considered dangers to the faith: sects, ideologies like Marxism, liberalism, atheism, agnosticism and relativism - the ideology that there are no absolute truths.

1. Uh oh. Look out.
You're about to get a bevy of neocon Nazi supporters swarming your thread, telling you it's not nice to insult the newly-minted infallible word of god guy. Oh well. It's at least a very instructive experience here at DU.

7. Hang on, I'm confused
Is he with the terraists? 'Cause I'm not with them, and I've got the requisite yellow ribbons to prove it. Say...this Rattzinger guy, he might not even be a good American, I hadn't even thought about that.

2. Liberalism in it's purest form probably is a danger to the faith.
But then again, so are science, reason and logic.

5. Well, I'm two for four in the new axis of evil.. A Liberal and an atheist
So I guess I'm an enemy of the Catholic church. Thanks for clarifying that Mr. Former Nazi. I wasn't before, but I guess I have no choice now, you regressive piece of shit.

I see CNN is censoring his history from his birth until 1950. Wonder why?

9. Looks like the Catholic Church wants to go extinct. Ratzinger will
definitely help with that choice. I don't see any sane person wanted to join or rejoin the Church run by a Ratzinger.

I'm so very glad that I left the Catholic Church in 1990. It sure has gone downhill.

10. Say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude,
at least it's an ethos.

12. Reminder: in continental Europe, 'liberalism' means free market liberalism
including Germany - not what Americans mean by liberalism. Ask a German DUers for what they think of as 'liberalism'.

13. Ratzinger and most of their followers attune to one order.
The order of the dominionism.

It is a myth, to consider dominionists only represent on religion. In truth, while there is much struggled in-fighting and fallout, dominionism is represenative of all true religions.

It is a myth to say that the dominionism is a real religion. Because in truth, it is an extremist viewpoint of all religions.

Christianity, Catholicism, Protestant, Lutheren, all twisted to the extreme side so that you can no longer call it a sane proposition.

Dominionism is the burning of witches. Dominionism is the face of evil.

That is the real truth.
