Do you consider the Catholic bishops noble and idealistic when they oppose capital punishment and welfare cuts but dangerous fanatics trying to legislate their theology when they defend the right to life?

One can only take from a couple of answers you got that once again, if you have no answer, you then must Generalize and Profile people with whom they disagre. Placing all Catholic Priests as Child Molesters makes as much sense as saying since 1 senator from Massachusetts murdured a young woman, then the other must be grouped in and guilty. Non sense.
I too am a recovering Catholic, went to Catholic Schools, and never met a Molestor Priest, or anyone who had been. I just was not a fan of church anymore. I do admire they charity work they do, and they don't do it to get on TV or Profit from it, rather it is their calling.
I believe a couple of the answers show a true admission and lack of intelligence and blind Racism.
It is the thinking that if you disagree or don't understand, therefor you must hate.
So, how do you get an answer when you deal with that type of thinking???? You can't...

I just don't understand why pick on people that need aid, to drive a question across.
Right to life true. allow children to be born to unwilling parents will increase the welfare bill and people will start screaming bloody murder. But these same people are silent when our country gives millions of dollars to countries like North Kora, but hey they have one boom and I guess we have none right, oh what a a bunch of crap.
Do I consider Catholic bishops noble and idealistic, hell no, hell our own people hate each other so what the hell.

I consider them dangerous, period. Bishop crazy man in California supports illegal aliens getting amnesty. Is that his idealism, or the fact that most illegals from Mexico are catholic? I was raised a catholic and went to catholic school and even as a kid something inside of me told me these people were wrong trying to inflict their beliefs on me. I questioned everything and got answers like, it's blind faith, maybe for them but not for me. I flunked religion in my freshman year of high school because I still questioned everything so I was labeled a troublemaker. I had doubts and voiced them. I no longer follow that religion or any organized religion for that matter.

I consider Catholic Bishops opinions to be mute! For hundreds of years the church has preached love, compassion, thou shalt not kill, while financing, and promoting some of the most violent confrontations man has ever known. Along with the churches morality issues. There are two kinds of people on this planet, good ones, and bad ones, they come in all sizes, shapes, colors, religions, ethnicities, and creeds! Your task is to separate the two! Regardless of what say or do!

As a recovering Catholic, I can tell you that their anti abortion stance is the ONLY thing that makes sense to me....
Telling people in Africa that birth control is immoral? Now that's just down right irresponsible...
Having compassion and preserving the life of the most evil scum on earth? String em' up! --they deserve to be Punished and they know it.
Trying to preserve the life of vegetables who are on life support for over a decade? Let them die in peace already!
give it up...if it weren't for technology, they would have been with God the way he intended a long time ago!

I could care less what they think. They are complete hipocrites to the christian religion. How are they supposed to be taken seriously while they are molesting little boys. Also God says not to worship false idols and calling the pope "holy one" or whatever takes away the glory of god. Is this noble or idealistic? no not at all its almost blasphemist. The catholics diverted the attention away from god. we are all servants of the lord. read the bible and translate it for yourself

they don't seem to be "worldly religious doctrines". they are declarations bobbing up from one particular religious code. And the "below God" argument is so arguable that it counts for not something on your argument. How can a democracy tolerate something below following that one specific faith? I ask you the way can our democracy can tolerate figuring out directly to maintain on with purely one faith, usually others. That is going against each thing the U. S. became based upon.

I do not consider the Catholic Bishops ...period. Does that make me a bad person or lacking in education? :-)

Personally I think they have enough things to worry about that they should be spendin their time cleaning up their own troubles.
