In a post above, by a Catholic who shall remain nameless, since his post above was killed, I am attacked for the 7 times 70th time, as follows:"As a former Catholic Priest, ray holds a lot of hatred for the church and its members. Just look at any of his posts here on any catholic thread, you'll begin to see. Drop his blind hatred of the RCC and his site is wonderful."
"As a former Catholic Priest"
is designed to alert or remind Catholics: (he's a traitor and/or reject, possibly thrown out for immorality)
The fact IS that I left the church in disgust along with many thousands of other priests and even bishops after Pope John XXIII died and it became obvious that the progress of Vatican II was going to be rolled back by the old Vatican Curia. Yes, I'm an ex-priest, and hardly ashamed to have disassociated myself from such a shameful fraternity. My site is attempting what Thomas Jefferson explained to John Adams that he also was trying to do with his "Jefferson Bible": i.e."rescuing the Philosophy of Jesus and the "pure principles which he taught,from the artificial vestments in which they have been
muffled by priests,who have travestied them into various forms as instruments of riches and power for themselves."
"Ray holds a lot of hatred for the church and its members."
(It doesn't matter how many times I repeat over and over again that the object of my criticism is the SHEPHERDS, NOT the sheep, in the church, Conservative Catholics keep repeating this LIE endlessly. Just see for yourself at http://www.LiberalsLikeChrist.Org/Catholic "Just look at any of his posts here on any catholic thread, you'll begin to see."
(I'll call my accuser's bluff, and that's all it is. I invite everybody here to search my posts and see for yourself that these Catholic accusers of mine are full of something that don't smell too good!) "Drop his blind hatred of the RCC and his site is wonderful."
(While I won't quarrel with the conclusion -- in his new book, Alan Colmes refers his readers to "Ray Dubuque's fabulous web site www.LiberalsLikeChrist.Org " -- what Catholic accusers don't seem to understand is that it is those who CAN'T or DON'T WANT to see the monstrous sins of the Roman hierarchy who suffer from blindness, not people like me who have discovered it, see it, and wish to see Jesus' mission be fulfilled and that "the blind shall see".)
