In the print version of my column "MSNBC, NBC, and NPR scorn man of God," I wrote: "It is important to note that God Almighty is Master of the Catholic Church, not Karol Wojtyla [i.e., Pope John Paul II] nor some banausic news jockey anchored in New York." This despite the fact that a few homosexual pedophiles viewed the Church's altar boys as an exclusive self replenishing dating service for those predisposed to such barbaric debauchery notwithstanding.

Prior to the selection of Cardinal Ratzinger as Pope Benedict XVI, the liberal media openly berated the legacy and character of Pope John Paul II as he lay in state. By their actions, they denounced the Holy Spirit of the true God in the selection process of the new pontiff, expressing what they alone knew to be proper for the Catholic Church.

A black pope, an African pope or a Hispanic pontiff was needed. Someone who would realize the need to be contemporary to the day and times in which "we" live, they clambered. This writer is personally surprised they didn't call for a black, lesbian, pro-abortion woman to lead the church. As long as she wasn't a Republican, they no doubt would still be dancing in the streets. But I digress.

To the dismay of these "gods" (small "g") their near worst nightmare was realized. A Bible-believing adherent to Catholicism was selected to lead the Catholic Church. Pope Benedict was dubbed "God's Rottweiler, the Enforcer and Cardinal No by the "goddians from the "godhead" of the liberal media.
Gerard Baker put it well when writing: "The Church's mission is to bear witness to the truth [of God]. The truth [of God] is not something that needs redefining each time a pope dies ("Shock! New Pope a Catholic," Timesonline.com, April 21, 2005). But to the mordant, contumacious minded media elites, a sin against their "humankind" had been committed.

The pouty Katie Couric delivered a homily on the polls to the handful that still worship her show. She ranted that 78 percent of American Catholics wanted the Church to be less conservative ("The Today Show," April 18, 2005). But as the Media Research Center pointed out, the only poll they were able "to locate with such a finding was an early April CNN-USA Today-Gallup survey of Catholics which found 78 percent said the next pope should "allow Catholics to use birth control."
In other words, Couric purposely distorted the poll findings to fit her homily. Her congregation will never know that 59 percent of those responding when asked if the next pope should "make church doctrine on abortion less strict" responded "No."

CNN's Paula Zahn focused on how "many Catholic women [where] praying that the white smoke from the Sistine Chapel chimney will signal" a "revolution" changing the church's policy on abortion, birth control and women priests. She concluded with a plea from a 12-year-old girl begging for the same opportunities as boys. But the questions that beg answering – the questions that none of these hypocritical marplots will answer is: Who are these women, and are their desires the will of the True God?
They cannot answer because they do not believe. Their theology is based upon feel-good sentimentality and convenience. It is as elite as they are.
There was a time in America when it would have been unimaginable to behave with such pagan disdain for men of God, but in today's social climate, it is permissible. We live in a seemingly parallel universe where truth and honor are to be resisted at all cost. The law-abiding are constrained, while the criminals and lawbreakers are protected and cajoled.
In the past 12 months, we have witnessed the abuse of young boys by homosexual pedophile predator priests who were supposedly leading them into a life of service to the God they claimed to serve. Yet the call goes forth for homosexuals to be ordained. We have witnessed the rape and murder of innocent children, while over a period of years the legal system led by the American Civil Liberties Union sought to protect the rights of sexual predators.
"Whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things" (Philippians 4:8) has been replaced by whatever is dishonest, whatever is base, whatever is common, whatever reduces man and woman to the depths of depravity, whatever is without virtue, think, act on and promote those things.
Pope Benedict has been contemptuously labeled as "ultra conservative." As if scriptural adherence in a minister is anathema, America's crown cherub of wholesomeness, Katie Couric, referred to the new pope as "known to be quite conservative," contorting her face as if something foul (apart from her tongue) were in her mouth. Herein we evidence the avouchment of 2 Timothy 4:3-4.
