Manondog Santorum & Opus Dei. Also Robert Novak and others

from the Catholic church. They are causing all kinds of harm. I believe horrible Tom Monaghan is a member.

the list. Same chapter in DC. He was a Clinton appointee but worked
hard to get Clinton impeached. Congressman Dan Burton was his buddy.

Here's a clip from the blog entry with associated quotes that you cite in your OP:



I am speechless at the scale of the horror and screaming hypocrisy of this. Oh. My. God. Thanks for posting this, as we needed to know, but it's sure bad news to get just before a meal.

Edited to add: Recommended

ago. The sexes live totally separately. The males have the responsibility of working for a living. The females have the responsibility of working for a living plus going to the males' residence once a week (during set hours when the males have to vacate the premises totally) and clean up after the males. The whole thing is truly bizarre and a true cult.

I guess doing god's work doesn't mean having to clean up after yourself if you're a privileged male.

It would be really nice if somebody informed these poor deluded souls that Fuckwit is part of a cult movement that regards their cult as Satanic.

Next time you are at Mass, LOOK around and you see how many of your fellow Catholic families have more than TWO KIDS.

so you have celibacy and strict separation of the dominant, lordly males from those dangerous, seductive females, who are "just asking for it."

This is really, really sick. The Catholic Church needs to distance itself from these cultists, but I don't see that happening any time soon, do you?

FWIW, the women don't have to do cleaning duty if they choose not to. However, any secretive group/cult that has a number of elected officials involved isn't to be trusted, and has no place in gov't. Any members should make their allegence to such a group public. It's the "secretive" aspect that's disturbing.

their "spiritual mentor". The women have to enter the building through a separate entrance from the men.

It's definitely a "cult". They focus on controlling your thoughts and having you recruit for them.

I have a niece who's a numerary of the Opus Dei. I have learned too much about them and I despise just about all of it.

Victor Hansen (did I get his name right?) that domestic spy from a couple of years ago, the one who spent so much Russian money he got on exotic dancers, or was it a prostitute? Whatever. Sure someone will remember that bizarre case.

Edit: Convicted FBI spy Robert Hanssen is also an Opus Dei member. (from the link,w hich also mentions Clarence Thomas but I didn't see Scalia mentioned, even tho I'm sre I've seen him identified as An Opus Dei member)

You religious nut! People who are truly FREE examine facts and weigh both sides BEFORE coming down!

I wasn't sure if I should post that on this board in addition to the PA board when I wrote it up. Thanks for putting it up here!:loveya::loveya:

I was hoping you would not be upset.

so terrified of ANYTHING that even faintly hints at femininity or {GOD FORBID!} homosexuality. They band together in these pseudo-testosterone reinforcing groups so they feel "manly". It is all part and parcel of the fascist movement. One of the 14 points is the attempt to control and minimize the role and rights of women and other minoirities in society.
It is also a basic tenet of the fundamentalist, dominionist view of the world. Men dominate. Women merely serve.



I think the SELF-LOATHING aspect of the personality takes the highest priorty on the list of personality disorders that makes one attracted to the cult of Bush/Fascism.
One can be gay/straight/black/white/male/female/hispanic etc. The one common thread seems to be an intense self-loathing that underlies a streak of cold, unfeeling cruelty and total lack of caring about one's fellow planetary inhabitants.

One of THE best discussions on the subject I've ever seen:

The Wimp Factor: Gender Gaps, Holy Wars, and the Politics of Anxious Masculinity by Stephen J. Ducat
http://www.buzzflash.com/premiums/05/02/pre05024.html

Several quotes pulled from the must read article:

Quote:
Part of the reason is that this type of masculinity is defined largely in terms of domination. The problem is that domination--either in a personal or a global context---can never be a permanent condition. It’s a relational state. It’s dependent on having somebody in a subordinate position. That means you could be manly today, but you’re not going to be manly tomorrow unless you’ve got somebody to push around and control, whether that is an abused wife or another country. So this kind of masculinity is really brittle.

Quote:
Real men, you know, don’t worry about the losers in the new global Darwinian economy.

Quote re Grover Norquist:
For many Republicans, collaboration raises enormous femiphobic anxieties, even if they’re collaborating--and perhaps especially if they’re collaborating--with Democrats. GOP strategist Grover Norquist once said that bipartisanship is another name for date rape. So that tells you about his anxiety, I think.

Quote:
BuzzFlash: To cooperate, then, is to give up one’s masculine prerogative to assert oneself as a male leader?

Stephen J. Ducat: Absolutely. In the world they live in, you’re either a top or a bottom. Mutuality, democracy, equality--that makes no sense to them.

a long, long read, but essential.
