Cry of the Poor |
"How can it be that even today there are still people dying of hunger? Condemned to illiteracy? Lacking the most basic medical care? Without a roof over their heads? . . .
"Christians must learn to make their act of faith in Christ by discerning His voice in the cry for help that rises from this world of poverty."
-- Pope John Paul II
Novo Millennio Ineunte, no. 50

 Catholics for Bush Got A Troll! |

Catholics for Bush has been visited lately by a disrespectful troll posting some pretty vulgar commentary. Commentary like that would be deleted from this site as soon as I notice it! The troll -- I'm assuming it's the same person that is contributing all the disrespectful commentary -- claims to be a very fequent church-goer, albeit for the wrong reason. Hopefully some of that religion rubs off on him while he's there.
I personally find a lot of material in that blog defies credible reason. I do not, however, believe those who run that blog are being deliberately dishonest or misleading (even though I find them fun -- and easy -- to pick on). After all, they are -- I assume -- average people like you and me just lapping up the dishonest and misleading tidbits Bush and right-wing media throw their way. They have a civic right and duty to voice their opinions and to contribute substantially to the electoral conversation; and I applaud them for their sincere efforts.
If that troll visits Catholics for Democracy at all, I would urge you strongly to have a little more -- no, a lot more -- respect for the community at Catholics for Bush. They may be wrong, but they're sincerely wrong. They deserve more respect from you than that.
