Neither does being NuLabour excuse Cherie Blair. It is the fact that both she and her husband claim to be Catholics that is the matter in this case and the scandal which they both cause for their support of artificial contraception and also abortion and also the promotion of homosexual activities as in fundraising for them, that gives one to question what kind of "Catholics" they claim to be.<BR/><BR/>JARayJARayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18138004129894177863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-43166302828167007842008-05-14T19:44:00.000+01:002008-05-14T19:44:00.000+01:00Margaret Thatcher (as well as being still alive an...Margaret Thatcher (as well as being still alive and therefore unavailable for channeling) introduced into this country the most barbarous abortion laws in the western hemisphere; but that's all right, because she was a "conservative".<BR/><BR/>I could go on, but what's the point?Anagnostishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03706938507885553293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-15411296128886364112008-05-14T19:20:00.000+01:002008-05-14T19:20:00.000+01:00This is just another load of RUBBISH dreamt up by ...This is just another load of RUBBISH dreamt up by the "Gutter British Media".<BR/><BR/>We must constantly be on our guard,anti Catholicism is as rife now as it was in the 19th century.<BR/><BR/>Not a day goes by without some nonsense in the papers.nickbrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09803733028691380861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-46779966699696235322008-05-14T17:29:00.000+01:002008-05-14T17:29:00.000+01:00Hitlery was said to have "Channeled" Eleanor Roose...Hitlery was said to have "Channeled" Eleanor Roosevelt.

A bit gawky and wrong in every way except intellectually. Along comes Mad Carole Caplin, New Age Guru, who flatters Cherie and "ministers" to the areas in which she has always failed - self-image, clothes, lifestyle, social awkwardness, lack of close friendships - and Cherie is converted. Her New Best Friend flatters her enormously and for the first time, she meets someone who makes her feel good about herself (Cherie and Tone plc is pure ambition, politics and greed - both have a fatal flaw for money). The first commandment goes out of the window via the root cause - lack of proper affirmation from her parents, and the subsequent empty black hole that has left. <BR/><BR/>I know. It does sound horribly social-workery. <BR/><BR/>At one point I did make contact with the bishop who has special responsibility for the media, to ask him if he could explain to ordinary Catholics, for me, that the stuff that "leading Catholic" Mrs Blair was into was not really what the Church teaches. His reply was hilarious. He said "thankyou for your kind offer.. but I`m afraid the occult isn`t really my thing."<BR/><BR/>And, you know, that explains a lot. But that`s another story. <BR/><BR/>I think Cherie's completely lost, like a leaf blown around by whichever wind comes along next.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
