The New Saints

Tomorrow, April, 27, 2014, I'm going to be in front of the television set for the first time in about 10 years. Both Pope John XXIII, and  Pope John Paul II are being canonized saints in the Roman Catholic Church. The celebrant of the canonization mass will be the current pope, Pope Francis.

Pope John XXIII, convened the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s modernizing the modern Roman Catholic Church. OK Liberals, I'll agree with you. The Catholic Church needs to modernize some more. However, keep in mind that the official policies of the Church, condemn not just abortion, but also war and capital punishment. The Church is pro-life across the board.

 Pope John Paul II, was a Conservative who is being honored with sainthood for the work he did during World War II, helping smuggle Jews out of Germany and Poland, saving them from Hitler's concentration camps. While you don't hear a lot of grief from Liberals about Pope John XXII, you hear a lot of grief about Pope John Paul II. He, along with Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and President Ronald Reagan, were responsible for creating the situation that brought down the Communist Soviet Union. Liberals, many of them who are Marxists, or at least Fellow Travelers,  have never forgiven them for helping bringing down the regime that had kept millions of people poor and enslaved to the Soviet Government. Most Liberals, or Progressives as they call themselves, in another words, Communists, hate America, because they are not in charge over the little people that they despise, and want to keep under their direct control for the "common good." He hippies, we are America, we are not the failure of Western Europe. We still have free will. Shove it.
