I hope you don't mind if I returned the sentiment.<BR/><BR/>Katherine is also allowed to have her strong opinions as you are allowed to have your own.<BR/><BR/>Note, please, that she is voicing her opinion about who she thinks ought to fill public positions of service and trust. She is NOT talking religion, sir. She is talking public policy.<BR/><BR/>Everyone - EVERYONE - those who believe abortion is wrong and those who believe abortion is right - would be welcome at the Table where Katherine presides. <BR/><BR/>That's not so at the RC Table where, even if I were an ardent opponent of abortion, I would neither be welcomed nor fed.Elizabeth Kaetonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06787552280232329081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-2659167805478725202009-03-31T17:39:00.000-04:002009-03-31T17:39:00.000-04:00In your advisory about comments, you will not tole...In your advisory about comments, you will not tolerate intolerance or prejudice. That is a good thing.<BR/><BR/>I would submit to you that Katherine Ragsdale is herself very intolerant of anyone who contradicts the pro-choice doctrine.<BR/><BR/>Today, at her blog, I read her 2007 speech "Our Work is Not Done."<BR/><BR/>In it, she states that no one who believes that life begins at conception should work in medicine or pharmacies -- or ever serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.<BR/><BR/>How could she ever honestly participate in inter-faith or ecumenical dialogues -- when, in her world, many faithful Catholics, Orthodox believers, Buddhists and others are not even welcome at the table?Paul Snatchkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15095161921742904453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-7126523589448781902009-03-30T14:12:00.000-04:002009-03-30T14:12:00.000-04:00Much nicer picture than MP's.
