Apply your own argument there to the sexist language and imagery you used in your comment.<BR/><BR/>I know you were meaning to be funny.

So is Mulieris Dignitatem.<BR/><BR/>Our human enemies are made in the image of God. I urge you to follow the Pope's example and oppose Pelosi's views without attacking her human dignity.<BR/><BR/>MonikaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-84863566235619064462009-02-21T00:58:00.000-06:002009-02-21T00:58:00.000-06:00The pope handled this situation perfectly, I think...The pope handled this situation perfectly, I think.

I know it sounds jejune, but I think a pro-life congressman should bring up the missed photo-op every day in Congress. I think that for a politician, it would have a sting that she would particularly feel. My hope is, of course, that such hurt would awaken her and bring about her conversion to the pro-life cause and make her a better Catholic.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05282128995443204747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-11573870625094465952009-02-18T12:08:00.000-06:002009-02-18T12:08:00.000-06:00Something I didn't know, Pelosi had met with her B...Something I didn't know, Pelosi had met with her Bishop on the 8th to discuss her proabortion stance.<BR/>She has been instructed.

Plausible denial is out the window and she must choose. I will pray that her heart is softened and opened to what she is truly doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
