Very funny Bob!! Actually I agree with him. Any spirit of adulation that is servile is risky but that statement is a little less over-the-top than yours are. But by comparison with most other countries you traditionally treat your presidents with an adulation we aussies find bemusing. Cant say we really get that! Our PM is at best respected and approved of but adulation? Not down under. Aussie cynicism can be an advantage sometimes!

He warned that in the U.S., Catholics need to act on their faith and be on guard against "a spirit of adulation bordering on servility" that exists towards the Obama administration. - - - Oh dear. Geoff, quickly, send Archbishop Chaput a sternly worded email warning him that he's all alone, either A or B. Make sure he understands that there is no C. Enumerate the 12 characteristics of a CT, it appears he's not aware of them. Be sure to include a correct definition of worship for his convenience. - Bob [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
