    The Pope's Liberal Chritian Values

    GOD Bless the Pope--he's doing what Jesus Christ would do. You can't worship at the altar of GREED while claiming to be a Christian. When Pope Benedict came to America a while ago, he chastised Catholics who support capital punishment as being hypocritical--life is either sacred or it isn't; you can't have it both ways if you are a true Christian. The Pope had the courage to say what is political incorrect in this country, and I admire and respect him for that even though I'm not a Catholic or even very religious. GOD Bless Pope Benedict. (Jesus was the 1st bleeding heart liberal.).
