    I know that you are confused about theology. Reverend Wright is a Catholic. Remember when you post comments that you are dealing with the www and every now and then people with common sense are watching the silly things you say. Hopefully none of your friends know you said that Wright is not a Catholic

    Comment: Not a well-conceived analogy, LDJ Alabama. The correct analogy would be if your priest - your priest, not one from another parish - preached pedophilia from the pulpit, and you not only stayed in the pews but invited him to join your campaign for President as a leader.???????
    Religion is not the fortay of many American people, especially those who do not actually attend church regularly to learn the doctrine. The POPE is the head of the Church and Bill O'reilly says he is angry because the Pope will not get rid of these pedophile priests. Catholic parishioners know and stay in their parishes even though these rapes and homosexual acts are being committed, shouldn't people leave their churches?? Just quit and go somewhere else and pray that pedophiles priests don't exist in the church down the street?

    Wright's rantings are anti-Christian. His church is outside the realm of Bible-based teachings. But this should come as no surprise given the fact that he had an openly-gay choir director -Donlad Young - for more than a decade. However, Young was murdered in December 2007.
