I found this rather irate article/post/a off of Ederlyn’s blog. I have read about such people more than once, but never seen a real example of it before. Someone who really considers the pope to be “the man of sin.” While I agree that it is rather silly for Mrs. Bush and Ms. Rice to be wearing veils the way a devote Catholic might (which is not to say that every female who doe not is not devote, I simply mean that the ones who do tend to be), I think he is being more than a little prideful and/or deliberately obtuse not to realize that we kneel in prayer to God for/em the Pope John Paul II, not to/em him. However, protestants, and especially evangelicals, fail to understand our communion with the saints, and the conversation we hold with them, asking their intersession before Christ for us, so I guess it is not too much of a stretch to see this cluelessness./p

On a side note, this article provides some timely proof that the “Separation of Church and State” here in the United States has been badly perverted. Do you think Washington or Madison intended that the President should not be able to kneel in Church?/p
