Re: Catholic Crusaders in Croatia (4.00 / 2)

It's the same argument over which Thomas a Beckett and Henry II fell out. The insistence by the church that its officials are above the law.

A relic of which today feeds into the wilful ignoring of child abusing priests.

Re: Catholic Crusaders in Croatia (none / 0)

Given the structure of the Roman Catholic Church, the only way I would see this changing is were all new cardinals chosen at the same time by other than the Pope.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

Re: Catholic Crusaders in Croatia (none / 0)

funny you say that, apparently there is such a method in the protocols, called 'election by adoration', and it could happen even to someone not of the cloth.

i know because dan brown said so, and i just finished 'angels and demons'!
