When has the Catholic church "not" stuck their nose into everything including politics? From The Inquisition, to the Argentine Montoneros, to mining, to everything else, the church has an opinion and if I remember correctly the Bible seems to show that the Christ taught that the true believers should "render unto Ceasar" and beyond that work out their own salvation with humility. These ungodly priests who seem to think that they need to be in the world throwing their weight around ought to go back to the seminary and learn some good christian virtues. Arson and social rabble rousing don't create any sympathy for their cause with me. But then look at the examples they have in Saenz LaCalle and the bishops who have their noses in every cause but the spiritual welfare of their flocks, and then have the cojones to call these misguided followers to repentence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-73478114675774595142008-11-10T15:54:00.000-06:002008-11-10T15:54:00.000-06:00Saenz Lacalle is the only Opus archbishop after Ro...Saenz Lacalle is the only Opus archbishop after Romero. Romero's interventions were during very extraordinary times. Given Funes' lead in the polls, I would think the left would be happy to see the Church stay out of it. Recent statements by various Catholic bishops (Denver, Paterson, Corpus Christi, etc.) regarding Barack Obama's abortion stance should chasten everyone that Church intervention should not be expected to fall predictably on behalf of one camp.Carlos X.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16580093848691478319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-37534753715437281632008-11-10T12:10:00.000-06:002008-11-10T12:10:00.000-06:00Ill be surprised if they go with a full right wing...Ill be surprised if they go with a full right wing goverenment in the local san salvador and left in the national. but who is to sayKadmielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01490691494472226114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-43517171470947073202008-11-08T03:03:00.000-06:002008-11-08T03:03:00.000-06:00Good O'l Fernando Saenz Lacalle is Opus Dei as is ...Good O'l Fernando Saenz Lacalle is Opus Dei as is all the others after Romero I believe.
