Two Plus Two Forces Pope's Hand

[David Sklansky]

It can't be just a coincidence that the recent debate on this forum between Peter666 and other Catholics like BluffTHIS and RJT, regarding unbaptized babies, occurred just before the Pope declared the non existence of limbo. Obviously two plus twoers insistence on consistent thought when analysing any situation made it incumbant on the Pope to come to the aid of his his buddies.

[BluffTHIS!]

Well the Holy Father has expressed that view on limbo as much as 20 years ago, but I think you might be right that we tipped the scales. More proof of the worthiness of your idea that 2+2 should take the initiative in the political arena like on the death penalty.

But as a hint, you know that that 5 or 6 degrees of separation theory regarding the max number of relationships between any 2 people on earth. Between myself and the Holy Father there are only 3 people, and each relationship is one of family ties or close personal friendship.

The pope reads 2+2. I believe he posts under the name "Daryn".

Since I have friends in the US who are native born Chinese, you shouldn't doubt it.

Actually in an effort to perseve his reputation of infallibility the Pope posts under the name "Daryn is right".
i am unsure who this daryn character is, but he both scares and inspires me.

(And John Paul was pockerjoe, no?)

[Peter666]

Pope John Paul II was to Catholic Popes what Ken Warren is to Poker books: you see him everywhere, and his writings are full of crap.

Ratzinger (Pope Benedict) is JP II light. I will have to see how his papacy runs its course, but I am thinking of an analogy to Mike Caro with his recent psychology position.

[BluffTHIS!]

Man aren't we so lucky to have you and your 4 bishops and 50 priests as our watchdogs. Actually what I am reminded of by your comments is the McCarthy spy hunts of the 50s. Always seeing a treasonous statement in every nuance and gesture.
