The overwhelming critique of, not to say hatred toward, the Pope and the RC church still has me somewhat incredulously stunned. It becomes hard to promote pro-life views in this climate. The hushed up pedophilia, the top-down structure, the impossibility for change, and things we as Lutherans would criticize in addition combine to quite a flood of bitter complaints and angry taunts.

I am "simul" and commented in about four different places. I got a ton of thumbs down's. Somehow, it strikes me as ridiculous in the end. I feel very sorry for the victims of the paedophilia and other abuses. It is hard for them to trust anyone, including God, and what a sad situation.
I wasted my time, possibily, on trying to get a spell checker for Window's Explorer, downloading an add-on which seems to do nothing. Maybe it will kick in somehow still or may I'll read some instructions, or something. Meanwhile forgive all the mistakes.
If you're getting a ton of "thumbs down" on a site like that...you are doing great!
