I'm not going to go into detail - that'll wait for another time. In any case you can watch it yourselves for at least the next 7 days if you follow that link. I've also recorded it and, if the BBC remove it, I shall post a copy somewhere like Youtube. <BR/><BR/>One of the things it confirms is that the senior Catholic in charge of the Vatican's "Priest Protection Policy" designed to suppress all public awareness of the extent of child abuse by Catholic Priests around the globe over the past few decades has been none other than Cardinal Ratzinger - the present Pope Benedict. <BR/><BR/>I can now say, with some feeling, that should MIFT succeed in eliminating this man from the face of the planet, I for one will feel much the same satisfaction I've already mentioned in this blog in regard to the potential deaths of the top echelon of Israeli decision makers. He too has it coming to him.<BR/><BR/>Sorry 'bout that. Just had to get it off my chest. Now, where were we?<BR/><BR/>Ah yes, I think you were attempting to defend religion to some extent weren't you? I'm afraid you may have caught me at a bad time! <BR/><BR/>Actually, apart from your paragraph "Hmmmm... I'd say that depends on the religion" we seem to agree. <BR/><BR/>If I understand your implied objection correctly I think it is based on a confusion between religious wars and religious acts. I have spent a good deal of time in Chapter 10 part 2 describing how what we are engaged in does indeed qualify as the "Holy War" both sets of fundamentalists occasionally call it. So I have no problem agreeing that this is a religious war. But that clearly doesn't preclude it from being political as well. The Christian Right is overtly political as I've described in some detail <A HTTP://WWW.FULLMOON.NU/BOOK/CHAP.PHP?ID="c10_2#WhyEvolution" HREF="" REL="nofollow"> here</A><BR/><BR/>And the principal aim of MIFT is the re-establishment of the Caliphate to sweep away and replace all other political systems throughout at least the Islamic World and, amongst a minority, throughout the whole World. <BR/><BR/>Their aims are the aims of deeply corrupted and perverse religions. Their acts are entirely political.Harry Stottlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05317879122444519928noreply@blogger.com
