recovering ex-catholic?

The Vatican is now saying that priests in Catholic churches should not give communion to politicians that support the right of a woman to choose to have an abortion. Just keep rollin' back those pesky women's rights, Mr. Pope. Really. No one really needs them anyhow. Women should not be allowed to make decisions about thier bodies. No sir. The personal is political? No No No. The personal is the Vatican's business. Everyone's talking about Pat Tillman this morning. He was an Army ranger that died in battle yesterday. He died fighting for the freedoms that we take for granted, and, he turned down a 3.6 million dollar NFL contract to fight in the war. Front page news, boys and girls. I guess that's what it takes. I guess the 811 coalition deaths weren't as exciting to mention. They left behind families and good jobs, not the National Football League. Oh, and in other news, those wacky Germans can now have sex in the barracks. Uniform play means so much more now.
