The False Catholic Religion of the Sacred Cows
In pursuit of the truth - cinops be gone - Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012
The Sacred Cows are Catholic leaders within the nation that the U.S. Catholic Church hesitates to publicly criticize and especially the Catholic laity fears to call a spade a spade. They really fear the truth and plain talk. May the evil of division within the Church not come to pass. The reelection of Barack Obama will do it. It is something that the President wants to do. Divide and rule. So let’s have some plain talk on the two Catholic Vice-Presidential candidates debating today for the Office of Vice-President of the U.S.A.
Now V.P. Joe Biden advised Obama not to go ahead with the HHS Mandate. He was overruled and now exists as a foolish puppet who will also now support same-sex marriage besides abortion on demand and pregnancy as a disease which Obamacare will take care of.
We have Joe Biden who is the bull of the Sacred Cows. There are other bulls in the American arena. There is New York’s Governor Cuomo who champions same-sex marriage and abortion on demand. He has also the shameful audacity to post in his office a picture of St. Thomas More who is the guiding light of this blog. Then there is Governor Jerry Brown an unprincipled and misguided Catholic who also promotes abortion on demand and same-sex marriage. Now let’s not forget the Queen of the Sacred Cows, Nancy Pelosi, a witch image for the unborn. She fundamentally does violence to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. They all do including the following:
We have Senator John Kerry in Massachusetts where euthanasia is on the ballot and he doesn‘t care about the Catechism of the Church on any matter. Then we have Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois where Catholic adoption agencies had to close. There is also a so-called Catholic Governor of Maryland who is pushing for same-sex marriage.
What a shameful and scandalous lot of fake Catholic politicians in the public square! They are very closely tied in with the Democratic Party and their leftist secularist agenda. I understand that one/third of Catholic registered Democrats are pro-life. It is obvious that they still believe from their parents and grandparents that the Democratic Party of John F. Kennedy is still alive. But that party is as dead a door nail.
Now how are these Catholic pretenders going to deal with an authentic Catholic like Paul Ryan. It should be interesting. Paul Ryan is to the false Catholic religion of the Sacred Cows what a popular and authentic conservative Black American politician is to the Obama Democratic Party. They smear. The face of that attack on Paul Ryan will be that of Chicago politics a.k.a. Joe Biden.
Remember with the help of fake Catholic organization like George Soros funded “Catholic United”, Catholics voted close to 54% for Obama in 2008. They need to get a majority again in 2012. Already robot calls have gone out from a group called Catholics for Obama telling listeners that Romney is a Mormon etc. In the battleground states, this false Catholic religion of the CINOP seeks to reduce the number of Catholics or Evangelicals from going to the polls.
We are dealing with a diabolical Democratic Chicago reelection campaign. In Minnesota, Al Franken got elected because over 1000 felons voted in 2010. Al’s vote in Senate passed Obamacare. Even the Catholic Church was deluded in donating over ten million dollars to ACORN years ago.
George H. Kubeck - Today starts the Year of Faith. What excuses are you most likely to use from sharing your faith or not voting for your Faith. The re-election of any CINOP in any diocese in America will a judgment on the failed Catholic Church leadership in that diocese.

Life Life Video* Surfaces on Obama
Life Video* Surfaces on Obama
Truth and Righteousness - cinops be gone - Wed. Oct. 10, 2012
Preface: I wish we had a pro-life President. Then I wouldn’t have to bug you daily with e-mails. I would not have to post weekly at abortion mills in Long Beach and Lakewood: “Life is the First Inalienable Right”, “Abortion Hurts Women“, and what is most poignant:
STOP BLACK RACISM! - 1,000 BLACK BABIES ARE KILLED EACH DAY THROUGH ABORTION! - 365,000 EACH YEAR - STOP THE GENOCIDE!
And all of this is occurring under this so-called Black President. Honestly, he is not really the first Black-American President. He is the first Black-White American President for his mother was white and his father was African. President Obama doesn’t care about renewing Black families and keeping their unborn children. One day, we will have a Black American President who cares; and it is most likely that our next President cares. Firstly, Romney will defund “Planned Parenthood” of over 400 million dollars it gets each year from the government monies borrowed from China.
*Video surfaces: Obama says unborn child is ‘potential life,” by P. B. Craine- LifeSiteNews.com-10-3
As President Obama steps up his outreach to moderate, independent, and faith-based voters in the final weeks before the Nov. 6th election, a new video has surfaced where he calls the unborn child a “potential life” and argues that viability is a “moving target.”
Published by David Brody of CBN News today, the video was taken at a 2004 campaign event in Springfield, Illinois.
“My basic view is that abortion is an extraordinary difficult moral issue. As a Christian, I think that a fetus is not just a collection of cells. It is a potential life,” he says.
“And I think that after viability it is legitimate for the state to prohibit late-term abortions as long as there is an exception to the mother’s life and health. Prior to viability, the problem is that this potential life is inside someone else’s body. It’s inside a woman’s body,” he continues. “And I don’t feel that it is appropriate for me to simply dictate to that person, to that woman should do with her body… “During the 2008 campaign, Obama told Christian pastor Rick Warren that it is “above my pay grade” to determine when an unborn child is eligible for human rights.
“In this most recent video he takes a more circumspect approach to late-term abortion than he did in a 2003 interview uncovered this summer. In that video Obama was asked by a reporter if he is “pro-choice” even in terms of late-term abortions, to which he replied bluntly, “I am pro-choice. I believe that women make responsible choices and they know better than anybody the tragedy of a difficult pregnancy and I don’t think that it’s the government’s role to meddle in that choice.”
“In another video from 2003, he states: “I voted no on late-term abortion ban, not because I don’t recognize that these are painful issues but because I trust women to make these decisions.” “Obama has also been accused of supporting infanticide because of his repeated votes against the “Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which would have protected children who are alive in the course of an abortion.”
Comments from Readers:
Ursula Pasche Stouffer: “When his wife felt his daughter’s kicking before they were born, were those just ‘potential kicks’, since it’s only a potential life, or where they REAL kicks from a REAL baby?”
Amanda Shields: “He calls himself a Christian, yet he believes that an unborn child is not a life and that abortion isn’t wrong? This man runs our country… scary.”
Wade Hudgins: “This man believes in infanticide. He has no respect for human life.”
Phylax: “Laws against infanticide are ancient among European-derived peoples; we are not allowed the choice to kill our offspring. English Common Law prohibited abortion after “quickening”, that is to say, proof of life was established when the baby was felt to move…

Think and Pray Very Carefully about Your Vote
The Eternal Salvation of Your Own Soul is at Stake
“Much attention was given at the Democratic National Convention held recently in Charlotte, N.C., to the fact that all references to God had been purged from the draft version of the party platform. After outcries of protest from outside as well as within the Democratic Party, the sentence with the same reference to God used in 2008 was restored to read, “We need a government that stands up for the hopes, values and interests of working people, and gives everyone willing to work hard the chance to make the most of their God-given potential.”…
“What is troubling about that is the blatant disregard for the rules and for the apparent wishes of about half the delegates. … “Even more troubling is that this whole discussion about God in the platform is a distraction from more disturbing matters that have included in the platform. In 1992 Presidential candidate Bill Clinton famously said that abortion should be “safe, legal and rare.” That was the party’s official position until 2008.
“Apparently “rare” is so last century that it had to be dropped, because now the Democratic Party Platform says that abortion should be “safe and legal.” Moreover the Democratic Party Platform supports the right to abortion “regardless of the ability to pay.” Well, there are only three ways for that to happen: either taxpayers will be required to fund abortion, or insurance companies will be required to pay for them (as they are now required to pay for contraception), or hospitals will be forced to perform them for free.
“Moreover, the Democratic Party Platform also supports same-sex marriage, recognizes that “gay rights are human rights,” and calls for the repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act, the federal law signed by Clinton in 1996 that defined marriage as the legal union of one man and one woman.
“Now, why am I mentioning these matters in the Democratic Party Platform? There are many positive and beneficial planks in the Democratic Party Platform, but I am pointing out those that explicitly endorse intrinsic evils. My job is not to tell you for whom you should vote. But I do have a duty to speak out on moral issues I would be abdicating this duty if I remained silent out of fear of sounding “political” and didn’t say anything about the morality of these issues. People of faith object to these platform positions that promote serious sins. I know that the Democratic Party’s official “unequivocal” support for abortion is deeply troubling to pro-life Democrats.
“So what about the Republicans? I have read the Republican Party Platform and there is nothing in it that supports or promotes an intrinsic evil or a serious sin. The Republican Party Platform does say that courts “should have the option of imposing the death penalty in capital murder cases.” But the Catechism of the Catholic Church says (in paragraph 2267), “Assuming that the guilty party’s identity and responsibility have been fully determined, the traditional teaching of the Church does not exclude recourse to the death penalty, if this is the only possible way of effectively defending human lives against the unjust aggressor, authority will limit itself to such means, as these are more in keeping with the concrete conditions of the common good and more in conformity to the dignity of the human person…”
“One might argue for different methods in the platform to address the needs of the poor, to feed the hungry and to solve the challenges of immigration, but these are prudential judgments about the most effective means of achieving morally desirable ends, not intrinsic evil… I pray God will give you the wisdom and guidance to make the morally right choice. May God give us this grace. Amen”

Paul Ryan Video for Catholic Voters Highlights Religious-Freedom Pledge
Religious-liberty protections will be a ‘cornerstone’ of a Romney-Ryan administration…
National Catholic Register, by CAN/EWTN - Posted 10/5/12
Washington - Republican vice-presidential nominee Rep. Paul Ryan has made a special video message for Catholic voters pledging that religious-liberty protections will be a “cornerstone” of a Romney-Ryan administration.
“We need a president who will support our God-given rights, not try to circumvent them,” he said in an Oct. 2 video posted to the Romney campaign website.
“The video comes after nine months of controversy over the Department of Health and Human Services’ mandate requiring most large employers, including many Catholic institutions, to provide employees free insurance coverage of sterilization and contraception, including abortion-causing drugs.
The mandate’s narrow religious exemption applies to employers who primarily employ or serve their co-religionists and would not cover Catholic charities, universities and health systems that employ and serve the general public.
Non-exempt organizations must either comply, drop insurance coverage and face other fines, or face non compliance fines of $100 per employee per day.
Ryan said religious liberty is “our first freedom,” and there is no guarantee “more precious” than the right to free exercise of religion.
He said Catholics see faith as “more than an individual right.” Rather, faith is “ a vital part of our community.” “We celebrate the unique role our Church plays in caring for Americans of all faiths, or of no faith at all. Catholic charities & hospitals offer services that hold our society together.” he said.
Ryan charged that President Barack Obama has “attacked these indispensable institutions since virtually the moment he took office.” He encouraged Catholics to join the Romney campaign.
“Together, we will ensure that our faith and our traditions are protected for our children and for generations to come,” he said.
Ryan is the only second Catholic the Republican Party has nominated as its vice-presidential candidate. President Obama’s running mate, Vice-President Joe Biden, is also Catholic…
George H. Kubeck, I will be focusing in on Catholic ? Vice-President Joe Biden in one of my next letters. The vice-presidential debate is on Thursday evening and not Wednesday.

In pursuit of the truth - cinops be gone - Monday, Oct. 8, 2012
“I repeat the directions I gave you when I was on my way to Macedonia: stay on in Ephesus in order to warn certain people there against teaching false doctrine and busying themselves with interminable myths and genealogies, which promote idle speculation rather than training in faith which God requires.” Apostle Paul to Timothy 1:1-20
(As reported in the New Oxford Review, October 2012 p. 20-21)
“ A group of Catholic [so-called] social-justice activists descended on Georgetown University to protest Paul Ryan’s speech there. As reported by the Washington Post (Apr. 27), they hoisted a fifty-foot sign that read, “Were were you when they crucified the poor?” The protest was organized by members of “Catholics United,” who argued that Ryan’s proposed cuts to Medicaid & other welfare programs contravene the teachings of the Church. [ I have written about “Catholics United” in the 2008 election. It is a divisive Catholic group partially financed by the hateful George Soros and exists to persuade Catholics in this election to vote for Obama.] …
“In his Georgetown speech, Ryan countered the arguments of his Catholic critics. His zeal to reduce the national debt, he explained, is based on moral and religious grounds that have the support from Church teaching and the Pope: “The overarching threat to our whole society today is the exploding federal debt. The Holy Father, Pope Benedict, has charged that governments, communities, and individuals running up high debt levels are “living at expense of future generations’ and ‘living in untruth.”
Acknowledging that that relief of the poor will always be necessary, Ryan advocates allowing local organizations, among others, to play a bigger role. “We are a nation that prides itself on looking out for one another - and government has an important role to play in that. But relying on distant government bureaucracies to lead this effort just hasn’t worked. [Think of Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty.] Speaking directly to his liberal Catholic critics, Ryan said, “There are some Catholics who for a long time have thought they had a monopoly of sorts - not exactly on heaven, but on the social teaching of our church. Simply put, I do not believe that the preferential option for the poor means a preferential option for big government.” His companion argument is that if further financial disaster strikes, if the federal government goes bankrupt, the poor will be the first to suffer.”…
(As reported by Bill Donohue in LifeNews.com - 9/27/12- “No Comparison Between Pro-Life Catholic Ryan and Pro-Abortion Biden”)
“Biden got into trouble with the bishops after his infamous 2008 appearance on “Meet the Pres.” Tom Brokaw asked Biden if he agreed with the Catholic Church on abortion. “I’m prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at conception. But that is my judgment. For me to impose that judgment on everyone else who is equally and maybe even more devout that I am seems to me inappropriate in a pluralistic society.” He also said that in the Catholic Church there has a long been a “debate” on when life begins.
“Following the interview, the bishops weighed in with vigor:
Speaking explicitly of Biden, as well as those Catholic politicians who share his position, Bishop Samuel Aquila of Fargo, North Dakota said, “they really should not be presenting themselves for Holy Communion because it is a scandal.
Denver Archbishop Charles Chaput said of Biden: “I certainly presume his good will & integrity and I presume his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for Communion.”
Bishop Paul S. Coakley of Salina said, “ … That life begins at conception is a scientific fact, not a personal subjective or philosophical or religious opinion.”
When Bishop Joseph F. Martino of Scranton was asked, “…” No Catholic politician who supports the culture of death should approach Holy Communion,” He added, “I will truly be vigilant on this point.”

“ A group of Catholic [so-called] social-justice activists descended on Georgetown University to protest Paul Ryan’s speech there. As reported by the Washington Post (Apr. 27), they hoisted a fifty-foot sign that read, “Were were you when they crucified the poor?” The protest was organized by members of “Catholics United,” who argued that Ryan’s proposed cuts to Medicaid & other welfare programs contravene the teachings of the Church. [ I have written about “Catholics United” in the 2008 election. It is a divisive Catholic group partially financed by the hateful George Soros and exists to persuade Catholics in this election to vote for Obama.] …
“In his Georgetown speech, Ryan countered the arguments of his Catholic critics. His zeal to reduce the national debt, he explained, is based on moral and religious grounds that have the support from Church teaching and the Pope: “The overarching threat to our whole society today is the exploding federal debt. The Holy Father, Pope Benedict, has charged that governments, communities, and individuals running up high debt levels are “living at expense of future generations’ and ‘living in untruth.”
Acknowledging that that relief of the poor will always be necessary, Ryan advocates allowing local organizations, among others, to play a bigger role. “We are a nation that prides itself on looking out for one another - and government has an important role to play in that. But relying on distant government bureaucracies to lead this effort just hasn’t worked. [Think of Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty.] Speaking directly to his liberal Catholic critics, Ryan said, “There are some Catholics who for a long time have thought they had a monopoly of sorts - not exactly on heaven, but on the social teaching of our church. Simply put, I do not believe that the preferential option for the poor means a preferential option for big government.” His companion argument is that if further financial disaster strikes, if the federal government goes bankrupt, the poor will be the first to suffer.”…
(As reported by Bill Donohue in LifeNews.com - 9/27/12- “No Comparison Between Pro-Life Catholic Ryan and Pro-Abortion Biden”)
“Biden got into trouble with the bishops after his infamous 2008 appearance on “Meet the Pres.” Tom Brokaw asked Biden if he agreed with the Catholic Church on abortion. “I’m prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at conception. But that is my judgment. For me to impose that judgment on everyone else who is equally and maybe even more devout that I am seems to me inappropriate in a pluralistic society.” He also said that in the Catholic Church there has a long been a “debate” on when life begins.
“Following the interview, the bishops weighed in with vigor:
Speaking explicitly of Biden, as well as those Catholic politicians who share his position, Bishop Samuel Aquila of Fargo, North Dakota said, “they really should not be presenting themselves for Holy Communion because it is a scandal.
Denver Archbishop Charles Chaput said of Biden: “I certainly presume his good will & integrity and I presume his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for Communion.”
Bishop Paul S. Coakley of Salina said, “ … That life begins at conception is a scientific fact, not a personal subjective or philosophical or religious opinion.”
When Bishop Joseph F. Martino of Scranton was asked, “…” No Catholic politician who supports the culture of death should approach Holy Communion,” He added, “I will truly be vigilant on this point.”

Goodbye, Freedom of Speech and Religion
Goodbye, Freedom of Speech and Religion
In pursuit of the truth - cinops be gone - Friday, Oct. 5th, 2012
Preface: “It’s obvious that marriage is in trouble. With divorce rampant, marriage and birth rates dropping, and single parenthood on the rise, the institution of marriage has been injured - badly.
Many no longer even understood what marriage is. That is why the idea of homosexual “marriage” is being discussed. If you know what marriage is, it is clear that two men or two women do not make a marriage. This is not a matter of fairness or equality. It is a matter of reality. The union of man &woman is fundamentally different, & it’s time we recognized that.” Cath. Answers.
Catholic Answers’ Booklet, “Why Homosexual Unions are not Marriages” - 2012 explains the truth in a simple, honest, and compassionate way that everyone can understand. Here are a couple of the several sections in the booklet. WWW.CATHOLIC.COM - 1-888-291-8000
“THIS IS NOT A RELIGIOUS ISSUE: SOMETIMES HOMOSEXUAL ACTIVISTS CLAIM THAT RECOGNIZING MARRIAGE AS THE UNION OF MAN AND WOMAN AMOUNTS TO “IMPOSING YOUR RELIGION” ON THEM. THIS IS NOT TRUE. NOTHING IN OUR ARGUMENT TO THIS POINT HAS BEEN BASED ON RELIGION. W’EVE MENTIONED THAT GIVING LEGAL RECOGNITION TO HOMOSEXUAL UNIONS WOULD DIMINISH RELIGIOUS FREEDOM, BUT THAT’S NOT A RELIGIOUS CLAIM. IT’S A LEGAL & POLITICAL FACT.
OUR CASE AGAINST REDEFINING MARRIAGE IS NOT BASED ON RELIGIOUS CLAIMS BUT ON HUMAN NATURE. THE UNION OF MAN AND WOMAN IS SIMPLY DIFFERENT THAT THE UNION OF TWO MEN OR TWO WOMEN. THIS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN OBVIOUS TO ALL PEOPLE IN ALL TIMES AND CULTURES.
“EVEN IN CULTURES SUCH AS ANCIENT GREECE, WHERE HOMOSEXUALITY WAS WIDELY PRACTICED, IT WAS ALWAYS RECOGNIZED THAT THE UNION OF MAN AND WOMAN IS DIFFERENT. CONSEQUENTLY THESE SOCIETIES DID NOT PRETEND THAT THE TWO PEOPLE OF THE SAME SEX COULD BE MARRIED. IN PARTICULAR, THE CONNECTION BETWEEN MARRIAGE AND PROCREATION WAS RECOGNIZED.
“MARRIAGE PREDATES CHRISTIANITY. IT PREDATES JUDAISM. IT PREDATES ALL OF THE HISTORICAL RELIGIONS. IT HAS BEEN WITH MANKIND FOR ITS ENTIRE HISTORY. THE “IMPOSING YOUR RELIGION” ARGUMENT IS JUST A DODGE… CONTINUE TO RECOGNIZE A BASIC FACT OF HUMAN NATURE…
“GOODBYE, FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND RELIGION: IF THE IDEA OF HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGE WERE ENSHRINED IN LAW, PEOPLE ACROSS THE LAND WOULD BE FORCED TO PLAY A GAME OF PRETEND. THIS WOULD DAMAGE THEIR CIVIL RIGHTS - PARTICULARLY THEIR FEEDOM OF SPEECH AND FREEDOM OF RELIGION.
“THE MANDATARY GAME OF PRETEND WOULD BEGIN WITH GOVERNMENT WORKERS FORCED TO CONDUCT SAME-SEX WEDDING CEREMONIES, TO HANDLE THE MARRIAGE RECORDS, AND TO PROCESS THE GOVERNMENT BENEFITS.
“THE GAME WOULD EXTEND TO EVERY INDUSTRY THAT DOES BUSINESS WITH FAMILIES, MEDECINE, INSURANCE, HOUSING, BANKING, RETAIL, ENTERTAINMENT, EDUCATION. WORKERS IN EACH OF THESE FIELD WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PLAY THE GAME…
“THE RIGHTS OF PARENTS TO PROTECT THEIR CHILDREN FROM THIS WOULD BE CURTAILED, AND MANY WOULD FEEL HELPLESS AS THEIR CHILDREN WERE BEING INDOCTRINATED WITH A FALSE UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN SEXUALITY.
“ULTIMATELY, EVERYONE IN SOCIETY WOULD BE AFFECTED, AND ANY PUBLIC DISAPPROVAL OR DIAGREEMENT WITH HOMOSEXUALITY AND HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGE WOULD BE TREATED AS “HATE SPEECH.”… [I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THIS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, AND MIND CONTROL.]
GEORGE H. KUBECK, IT’S INCOMPREHENSIBLE TO ME TO PERCEIVE THAT ALMOST 40% OR MORE OF SO-CALLED CATHOLICS SUPPORT SAME-SEX MARRIAGE.
