There's more...
None dare call it "hate speech," and perhaps it is not, per se, but there's rather a long history of papal utterances being translated that way for the common folk.
Anyway, former Cardinal Ratzenberger, or "Ratzi" to his many detractors, is now officially on record as being on equal moral ground than, say, Jerry Falwell and Sun Myung Moon.
I am not, and never have been Catholic, but I was educated by Catholics and I have a great deal of respect for Catholicism and it's general support for human rights, at least in recent decades. Well, no more of that, if Ratzi has his way.
I support the fine American viewpoint towards the authority and Primacy of the Pope. "Only to the extent that it does not contradict scripture and common sense."
It would be uncommonly sensible for Catholics to ignore the hell out of the Bishop of Rome.
