Will the Bishop of Atlanta Put Lego’s on his Lawn?
Nobody Reports
Somebody call the Pope. One of his archbishops (Wilton D. Gregory) is living like he was ….well, like he was the POPE!
ATLANTA (AP) — The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Atlanta apologized Monday for building a $2.2 million mansion for himself, a decision criticized by local Catholics who cited the example of austerity set by the new pope.
“I failed to consider the impact on the families throughout the Archdiocese who, though struggling to pay their mortgages, utilities, tuition and other bills, faithfully respond year after year to my pleas to assist with funding our ministries and services,” he added.
What was it that confused him? Was it the gold faucets? Maybe the bathroom fit for a Russian Czar? Was it his membership in the Martin Luther King Board of Preachers at Morehouse College? Was he trying to mimic Obama?
And what will the new Pope Francis do? Even though he can walk the halls filled with the richest treasures in the world, Pope Francis lives in an apartment on the Vatican grounds. And last week, he removed the German Bishop of Bling, who lived in a $43.miillion dollar mansion. After all, that’s a bit much.
Poor Pope Francis…his priest are acting like ….well like rich basketball players instead of…priests. The Bishop took the money donated by the estate of the author of “Gone with the Wind” and instead of using the money to help the poor people of Atlanta, he built himself a mansion, no doubt to save the souls of all the rich basketball players that live there. (an impossible task) 
And speaking of souls…
In Poland, a polish priest is upset about the devil: Yes, Lego is turning toys into toys of Satan that will “destroy” children’s souls.
I guess he figures the adults souls are already destroyed.
In a presentation aimed at parents, Father Slawomir Kostrzewa said the popular Danish toy company had taken a lurch to the dark side with its series of Monster Fighters and Zombie mini-figures, and that they “were about darkness and the world of death”. (See Zombie eating MEAT!)
“Friendly fellows have been replaced by dark monsters,” he explained. “These toys can have a negative effect on children. They can destroy their souls and lead them to the dark side.”
Yes, with all the problems in the world…the polish are concerned about…the toys. (Not their toys of course, but yours.)
Nobody Wonders how these priests got to build these mansions IN THE FIRST PLACE! And when did they discover that Lego was a cosmic evil for Satan?
I suggest that the Pope start telling people to stop watching Zombie movies so that the toy companies won’t make Zombies, and the Bishops to start living in small apartments, like the rest of their flock.
But—when the Bishop is BLACK, I imagine, he will get to keep his big house, if only to give Obama a nice place to stay when he visits.
Nobody suggest that if the Bishop of Atlanta wants to keep his big mansion, he place tons of Zombie Legos’ on his lawn. And if the Slawormir Kostzewa complains, tell him to take it up with the Pope. Maybe the Pope can get Lego’s to make a few angels.
Come on…do I have to keep this world sane or what?
In Defense of the Big American Bone
Or— Those With Big Bones, Hide Them NOW!
Nobody’s Opinion
She’s Italian, she was raised Catholic, and she fits right into what I was going to talk about today. Her name is Liz Trotta. She is a contributing commentator on Fox News, and this morning her subject was…the Pope. People should stop picking on him, especially Rush Limbaugh, she said. She went on: Just because the Pope said that he knew and liked a lot of Marxists, doesn’t mean that he likes Marxism.
According to MS Trotta, the Pope sees the great misery and poverty in the world, and he is just doing what Jesus would do, what we all should do—- be concerned about the little children of this world growing up in poverty. (It’s the new progressive argument.)
I had just read a piece from Charles Krauthammer’s new book, “Things that Matter” called, The Mirror-Image Fallacy, (Time, Aug., 1983) in which the good psychiatrist explains the progressive concept of Solipsism, which says that everyone in the world is alike.
“Fundamentally, it is a radical denial of the otherness of others.” said Charles.
This philosophy —everyone in the world is the same, because we all sleep, drink, feel pain, get common colds etc, and therefore utopia could be reached if we just got the right system in place—is crazy. Nobody needs to suffer, they believe.
I hate to say this, but sometimes it’s what people leave OUT of their talking points that can really get you pissed off. (Obama does this every day.) In Liz’s great defense of the Pope, she forgot to mention that the Pope WAS attacking capitalism. Sorry Liz, that quite a big point to leave out.
h/t The Exchange:
The pope has gone a bit overboard, however, in his recent attack on free-market capitalism. In a lengthy “apostolic exhortation,” Pope Francis rails against “an economy of exclusion” and a “ financial system which rules rather than serves.” The pope points out that, in a time of miraculous technological progress, alarming numbers of people still live in misery and desperation.
“The culture of prosperity deadens us,” the pope writes. “We are thrilled if the market offers us something new to purchase; and in the meantime all those lives stunted for lack of opportunity seem a mere spectacle; they fail to move us.”
The pope has urged everyone from charities to Italian authorities “to do everything possible so that every family can have a house.” this holiday season.
Great idea! Hey, that Vatican is pretty big— just THINK of how many homeless families you could fit in that sucker.
According to the Pope, and the progressives, the only way to rectify this horrible injustice of people who have nothing, is to redistribute the bones…I mean the money, by force if we must. Both Obama, and now the Pope, and quite a few members of Congress are ready to implement…equality upon the world. Obamacare is just the start.
(John McCain would add the Ukraine, Japan, North Korea, the Sudan, Syria…..Mercury, the planet Venus…)
The world leaders are desperate in their compassion, are they not? Even Liz today was full of it. I was looking for the picture of the poor starving children walking barefoot in Rio to pop up behind her.
To the progressives, the only way to bring utopia to the earth is to take a bone from one dog, and give it to the other dog. Anybody who has dogs knows there WILL be a fight. Even the sweetest dog on the planet will bare her teeth and growl, protect that bone, even hide it, from the other dog. That is her bone, and NOBODY has a right to it. This happens every single morning in my house.
It’s dog survival 101.
And everybody knows the best way to lift people out of poverty is to let the people run their own lives, in free markets, without government interfering, and collect as many bones as they possible can. And that’s true capitalism. That was once the American Dream.
My subject today was going to be when did America stop believing in individual success? When did the American Dream turn into— America is greedy, selfish, and rich?
When did the man become less important than the collective? Even in sports, it’s the home-run that wins the games. While the collective can win at many things, true progress is made, in almost every instance, by the individual with a little help from his friends.
(Thank you Ringo)
I know when it happened in my life. The social conditioning started in 1st grade. If one bully hits a kid, and the kid sticks up for himself, BOTH kids are sent to the office. What can of justice is that? There is no justice.
It’s all about teaching that the children must obey and do what’s best for the collective.
If a bully in class damages something while the teacher is gone, and nobody in the class is willing to be beat up by the bully, they remain silent. The whole class will be punished for one man’s crime. I believe this is done in the military too.
Nobody Thinks the very insanity of blaming millions of white people now, for crimes of their ancestors of long ago, is no different than punishing the whole class for crimes none of them committed. We are…forever being conditioned to guilt. And the Catholics and politicians, are masters at it.
It’s one of the reasons a whole race of white people are silent now on the injustices being propelled on them, for crimes they didn’t even commit.
So I ask myself: Will America put up a fight for her bones, the biggest one being freedom and the right of the individual to decide his own fate? 
And why should such an intelligent woman such as Liz Trotta, ignore the obvious?. Has she no clue that she is suggesting we all stop buying I-Phones and start giving our money to countries all over the world?
( I don’t have an I Phone, but the black guy who just came over to fix my internet connection had two, which he got the old-fashioned way. He worked for them.)
Liz Trotta, we perhaps could say, is just a product of her Catholic upbringing, which never told her, there isn’t enough bones in the world to fix poverty, and who never pointed out to her, that politicians will go farther than a dog for their right to keep their bones: They hide them in offshore bank accounts while they take ours, which Nobody Thinks is an injustice we have been conditioned to accept.
And speaking of dogs: Today, Raul Castro issued a stern warning to entrepreneurs to not push the boundaries of the state. Nobody is to collect too many bones in Cuba..he is adamant.
The Pope would no doubt, find Castro very friendly, because Castro, has a house for all his people, even if they all leak.
I just hope our American doggie survival instincts kick in before it’s too late…and if not, we can always go back to the old Jesse James’ method.
You dig a BIG hole….
A REAL Pope of God Would Ex-communicate Nancy Pelosi
Nobody Cares
Nobody Cares that O.J. Simpson got caught stealing oatmeal cookies while serving his sentence for armed robbery, but finally—-, SOMEBODY in the Catholic church cared that Nancy Pelosi should be denied Communion, for being such a ‘sinner.’ Nobody Thinks that she should be excommunicated from the Catholic church, but that’s me.
Yes, the good Cardinal Burke (who was from St. Louis) has reprimanded Nancy’s hypocrisy, being as she is one of the biggest proponents of abortion in the country.
Because of her longstanding support for abortion, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a Catholic, must be denied Communion under the law of the Catholic Church, said Cardinal Raymond Burke, head of the highest court at the Vatican.
Cardinal Burke referenced his remarks about Pelosi to Canon Law–the law governing the Catholic Church–and specifically Canon 915, which says those Catholics who obstinately persevere “in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to Holy Communion.”
When asked about her continuing stance on abortion, which is against all that Catholics believe she says this:
“As a practicing and respectful Catholic, this is sacred ground to me when we talk about this. I don’t think it should have anything to do with politics, and that’s where you’re taking it and I’m not going there.”
Typical. When a liberal doesn’t want to answer a question: they just don’t.
Nobody Cares in the democratic party that Nancy is a hypocrite. She helped passed Obamacare which in fact, will kill provide more abortions because everyone is going to be required to pay for them. But it’s about time the Catholic church cleaned up its act.
Now…Mr. Pope, the balls in your court. You welcomed Joe Biden and Nancy to your coming out party…are you going to start standing for the Catholic Church’s dogma?
Or are you just going to send out your cardinals to do your dirty work?
So far…Nobody is quite sure WHAT you believe. Go ahead and show us your really God’s messenger: excommunicate Nancy.
Otherwise, you are just another puppet for the rich.
The Show MUST Go on…Popesmoke.
Nobody Reports
Now…I don’t want to offend anybody’s Christian religion, but the sight of all these old guys walking around in lace and dresses today at the Vatican— walking around in the most lavish and expensive building in all the world… each one poker faced…going to silently pick the next Pope…was rather…silly to me. Their rings alone look like they could feed half of Kenya.
It’s not that the Catholic church hasn’t done a lot of good in the world, but their record of evil is long and historically, wide as a worm hole to purgatory.
I have never forgiven the hypocritical Catholic church, who “excommunicated” me when I divorced my first husband. I became a Catholic to marry him, and he never set a foot in that church again.
He was a true Catholic in every sin (sense) and so, like the many Priests who have sinned again choir boys, never to be sent to prison, my husband was kept in high standing and my son and I were excommunicated from the church….
No matter how I pleaded our innocence, it mattered not to the church.
He was BORN a Catholic, I was not. He could have been a serial killer…no matter to the Church. Nope.
And that right there shows you what really matters to them.
So you must forgive me if I find the Catholic church..while beautiful in its historical heredity, just another hierarchy institution which has too many times, only been interested in its own “rich” survival.
From the selling of “penances,” to the slaughter of millions of innocent “witches,” to the rapes of too many children, the institution should be overhauled.
The Catholic people deserve it.
Personally, I think all the pomp and circumstance is rather overbearing. Certainly not anything that Jesus taught in his life.
All you need to know about being Catholic, is written on Nancy Pelosi’s face. She has never been excommunicate, and she supports abortions. You have to wonder what the next Pope will be like: Will he be ‘progressive?’ Supporting abortions, gay marriage, and communism?
The last pope was on that road. 
Like most other people I was glued to the entertainmnet of all those old guys walking and mumbling. Nobody puts on a show like the Catholics. The great theater goes on…to make us all feel that there is something very special about the man that is chosen to be pope.
In the meantime, every single one of those Cardinals looks VERY well fed. And in this Nobody’s Opinion, the sooner they let the priest’s marry, in fact encouraged marriage for them all, the better the church will be.
I wonder if we will get to watch 115 Cardinals KISS the ring of the new Pope.
Nobody Wonders if that’s where the Mafia Don’s got the idea?
Mmmmmm?
Obama’s Final Solution: Abort
Nobody Wins
She cried before she went in—she cried when she came out. The abortion didn’t take longer than a few hours. Nothing I could say would make my friend feel any better. We both knew..she didn’t want to “kill’ or abort…but to raise a child without help, or a father, would mean her parents wouldn’t give her money for college, she told me. She didn’t want to raise a child by herself. For a white woman from a middle class background, there was no “safety” net. She had to make a living..for herself. Having a child right out of high school— the thought alone scared her to death.
It was only a fling which didn’t last more than a few nights, but she ended up pregnant. She WAS on the pill. She told him she was pregnant, but he really didn’t care. “Do what you want.” he told her.
And so, this scenario has played out since the “pill” was invented. The “pill” brought in the sweet liberty of free sex..sold to the country as a “woman’s ” right. What it lead to was more sex, and more unwanted pregnancies.
Despite the great invention of the “pill” some 52 million women a year worldwide manage to get pregnant and abort anyway, and the abortion mills went up everywhere.
Personally, I think that figure is way too low. 
When I was a young woman my friends and I went to Planned Parenthood for our “pills.” And we paid for our pills, out of our own pockets. Many of the women that I knew that had abortions, paid for them out of their own pockets. Once in a while, the guy would chip in. Since it was “the woman’s” body, he had no say in it. Many men thought that was great…many did not.
And now we find that Obamacare has us all paying for contraceptives and abortions. The Democrats are putting the pill up as part of “women’s health.” and a “right.” And the Catholics are finally standing up. They used to be able to bow out with their conscience. No more. 
Despite Obama acting like millions of women will be deprived of contraceptives if the Catholic Church doesn’t provide them for them, all they have to do is get in their car and drive to the nearest Planned Parenthood, which received in 2009, $363.2 million in government grants and contracts—so that’s a bunch of crock.
Yes, the American taxpayer is already funding abortions and contraceptives. Hillary includes it in our vast billions that we send around the world. And that’s not the only money they get as we saw recently when funding by a organization that helped fund breast cancer was attacked for trying to withdraw it’s millions from Planned Parenthood’s bank accounts. They gave in because the feminist’s scream was so loud.
So…in a hurry to push through as much evil as he can…Obama has demanded that all Catholic institutions provide, for free contraceptives and the “morning after pill” or they will be fined. The lst amendment was just spit on and burnt by our first “black President.” He should be impeached for as many times as he has trampled on our Constitution. Maybe he did it because in some reports, black woman have three times the abortions rate over the white—more free stuff.
Obama will be “culling” the herd: the unborn young, and the old who will no longer get medical care. It’s the NEW WORLD ORDER of population control, done with “We CARE for YOU!” smiley face, that would look a lot like Hitler’s final solution if we could just get a picture shown to us. 
And the Catholic liberals are coming up with some pretty lame sound bites:
“Women’s health care should not depend on who the boss is,” said Illinois Rep. Jan Schakowsky
Well, what if that “boss” is Obama? Tell me..what does “taking” the pill have to do with woman’s health? If she doesn’t take the pill…will she die? No, on the contrary, she will live a much more healthy life. 
I learned about the dangers of the “pill” from Dr. Lee Salk. (Jonas’ brother) I told him how miserable I felt and how easily I got depressed, and he said, “Get off the pill, don’t take it. It’s horrible really. ” And many reports say that the rise in breast cancer was due to many years of the “pill.” What else explains it?
This is NOT about a woman’s right to get free contraceptives or abortions, it’s about the state telling the church, whose very foundation was built on the Ten Commandments which included “Thou shall not kill.” to either do as Obama wishes or suffer the consequences. 
Here’s the Obamacare mandate that we just found out about:
Last August, the Obama administration’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued guidelines for implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as, “Obama-care.” The guidelines mandated that by summer 2012 all health-insurance plans—yes, allof them—must cover any and all FDA-approved contraception, sterilization procedures, and pharmaceuticals, even those that produce or result in abortion. Every employer and employee must pay for these things, even if they violate the dictates of their conscience. The employers include all Catholic institutions, from colleges to hospitals to nursing homes to social-service agencies to charities … to whatever else. “
We all know, if a woman is a Catholic and she wants to get contraceptives, or an abortion, she can.
This is about power. Obama’s power. To search us, to spy on us, to tell us what to eat, how much we can earn, where we can live, and how long we can live. The fourth amendment was trashed with the cameras on the streets, and the President now has the power to arrest anyone without a trial, and soon, Obama’s drones will be in the air in every city.
Now the right to practice your religion is being erase. Obama is doing the Muslim’s bidding–destroying the church. They do it in all communists countries. You have to. Only the state can be God.
At the state of the union address, Obama said,
“The executive branch also needs to change. Too often, it’s inefficient, outdated and remote. That’s why I’ve asked this Congress to grant me the authority to consolidate the federal bureaucracy so that our Government is leaner, quicker, and more responsive to the needs of the American people.”
Substitute the word “consolidate my power” for “the federal bureaucracy” and you get what he really wants–total control of everything.
“It gets to that interesting point to me, which is frightening, when the state tells the church what to do.”
Nobody would add it’s a bet more than interesting—It’s downright treason.
Oh my friend? Last I heard she got her degree and became a teacher. She went to a sperm bank and now has a girl..and she has no idea who the father is. She’s still…not married. And I will bet you, she doesn’t even have sex anymore. And that’s what the state wants: No religion, No country…No man…and no more freedom…it’s Obama’s Vision, his Final Solution.
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
