Hallo Cass and all,


My views are:

Interesting Cass.
I suspected that the elite ruled the show, but was not aware of that the 
voting system was run like that.

"Infallibility" and Equality in Catholicism
a) Ratzinger and his extreme views:
"Cardinal Ratzinger of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith had 
interpreted the teaching on the non-ordination of women as "infallible."

b) Also the late Pope John Paul:
"On July 10, Pope John Paul issued a letter of apology to women for sexism 
in the Church, even while reiterating the teaching about the non-ordination 
of women. He also wrote: "As far as personal rights are concerned, there is 
an urgent need to achieve real equality in every area: equal pay for equal 
work, protection for working mothers, fairness in career advancements, 
equality of spouses with regard to family rights and the recognition of 
everything that is part of the rights and dutues of a citizen in a 
democratic state.....This is a matter of justice but also of necessity. 
Women will increasingly play a part in the solution of the serius problems 
of the future."

quite interesting)



Sexual conduct within the Vatican and its close friends.
"Since 1990, at least 26 bishops, archbishops and cardinals around the world 
have resigned or been stood down after allegations of sexual misconduct, on 
their own part or of those they supervised, became public; however, this may 
not be a complete list."

Sex-scandals always seems to change things.
Though TS-Adyar has a different view.

A funny one:

Dear Morten
I have just been watching a show on the History Channel about all the popes 
and the papacy. Talk about organized crime! The voting system, works by a 
series of votes, at various times of the day. The votes and who received 
the most votes are read out and the top runners announced, then, couple of 
hours later a new vote is taken and the top runners announced again. From 
the first and second round votes the cardinals can figure out who the other 
cardinals are voting for. As there is also a power structure within the 
ranks of the cardinals themselves, some carrying more clout than others, 
those cardinals carrying less weight, see who the cardinals with more clout 
are pushing, and can swing over their vote next round. They mentioned that, 
as " no one wants to work under an antagonistic cardinal, the man the elite 
few want in power, gets the job. So if it is not Ratzinger it will be 
someone Ratzinger wants there.

There is no religion higher than politics.
Regards
Cass

Hallo Cass and all,

Yeah...
Their Theosophy is however Truth without Wisdom, because they will only
allow reason as blind faith to rule.

This following website has some interesting views.
Not all of them that much founded upon documentation,
but never-the-less helpful to picture the truth.
