[url=http://antihumanist.srv2.pmachinehosting.com/comments.php?id=A231_0_1_0_C]Bishop Classifies "racism" and "anti-Semitism" As "Diseases" On Catholic Exchange Website[/url]
by the knave March 18, 2004
In rhetoric reminiscent of the products of the Nazi Propagandaministerium and the Antikomintern, Bishop Sean O'Malley, of the Catholic Diocese of Fall River, Massachusetts describes the social disorders of "racism" and "anti-Semitism" as "diseases" and classes them with abortion as one of the three great assaults on humanity.
Indeed the "sin" of racism (the tedious scriptural proof of which the good Father spares us in his ex cathedra remarks) is a veritable weapon of mass destruction, like nerve gas, which "damages the spiritual environment of the planet".
In the Newspeak of Liberation Theology, "racism" can be de-coded as "white-ism". To be white is to be racist. In a speech before the august anti-white terrorist hate organization the NAACP, the Bishop makes reference to The Pastoral Letter on Racism entitled "Solidarity: An Arduous Journey to the Promised Land", in which he lays at the feet of the white race all the horrors and injustices of American history...

Sad but hardly suprising. Since Vatican II, the Catholic church has become like the other Christian denominations and kow-tows to today's liberal PC agenda.
Where is Pope St Pius X when you need him :thumbsup:

O'Malley might be another faggot as well, as half of them probably are.

I have a relative who told me recently that his adultery is far less sinful than my racism.
Cool, huh?
For me that really lays bare the whole dynamic. We can justify any personal indulgence by making up non-existent "sins" called "racism" and "anti-Semitism" and "sexism", place those at the top of the "heinous" list, and then scrupulously avoid those pseudo-sins by loudly condeming them in others. This buys us a sort of moral capital that we can spend on ourselves, while inflicting the costs on others.
Hey, what's my sexual immorality compared to - gasp! - YOUR RACISM.
I mean, RACISM! Can you imagine!!!!
I wonder if that's Father O's game?

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church on race:
[QUOTE]1935 The equality of men rests essentially on their dignity as persons and the rights that flow from it:
Every form of social or cultural discrimination [B]in fundamental personal rights [/B] on the grounds of sex, race, color, social conditions, language, or religion must be curbed and eradicated as incompatible with God's design. [/QUOTE]
This comes close to being wrong, IMHO, but it's saved by the qualifying language in bold. The point is that all men - even Africans (I say this through clenched teeth) are human beings and Christ died for them. We are in that sense equal. As Lincoln put it, while a Negro is not his equal in race, in his or her right to earn bread by the sweat of his brow and then to eat that bread without the leave of another, he is equal.
Negro slavery was wrong, b/c it was a violation of the most fundamental of human rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, with which even Negroes are endowed. But it in no way implies that the races are equal in their endowments, or that they should strive to integrate with each other.
In fact, I see no reference to "racism" or "sexism" per se in the [URL=http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc.htm]Catechism[/URL], perhaps somebody could correct me on this.
[QUOTE]2113 Idolatry not only refers to false pagan worship. It remains a constant temptation to faith. Idolatry consists in divinizing what is not God. Man commits idolatry whenever he honors and reveres a creature in place of God, whether this be gods or demons (for example, satanism), power, pleasure, [B]race, ancestors, [/B] the state, money, etc. Jesus says, "You cannot serve God and mammon." Many martyrs died for not adoring "the Beast" refusing even to simulate such worship. Idolatry rejects the unique Lordship of God; it is therefore incompatible with communion with God.[/QUOTE] The passage immediately above shows that while race is important, we may not make a pagan idol of it. That's all I was trying to say in the latest blowout here. We put God first, race after. We accept that Negroes are our Brothers in Christ, but as Albert Schweitzer put it, they are our little brothers. We indeed accept the unity of the human race, and celebrate the national diversity among them, by RESPECTING their distinct bloodlines that are expressed in distinct cultures that are in turn allowed to blossom on sovereign territory.
Anyway, I see nothing to support Fr. O's position on "racism." What is he talking about? Again, please correct me if I'm wrong on this.
