2013-03-12
[NEWS.CINCINNATI] Three people -- including a nun and a longtime poll worker
That would be Melowese Richardson. The nun is a bit more than a cloistered naif -- click on the headline to read the details.
-- are facing charges related to improper voting.

The three are the first charged out of a Hamilton County Board of Elections'
That would be Cincinnati, Ohio, and some suburbs...
investigation that found a handful of people improperly cast at least two ballots that were counted in the November 2012 election.

"Elections are a serious business and the foundation of our democracy," Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said. "... individual votes may not seem important, but this could not be further from the truth."

#9  maybe the lunacy never left certain sections in spite of clamp downs

Pretty much it. It's taken a couple of decades to begin clearing out the rot just in the USCCB; it'll take decades more at the other levels.

#7  Israel has long pointed out that other countries call themselves Islamic republics and are not criticized.
Because in these countries Christians are treated as dhimmies and as such know their allocated place.Criticizing these states is not one of their rights unlike Muslims rights in Christian countries.

#6  g(r)omgoru, looks like the Marxist inspired Liberation theology is creeping back into the Catholic church or maybe the lunacy never left certain sections in spite of clamp downs.

None of which involved practicing Christianity, I bet.

Catholic leader rejects Israel's Jewish identity

Catholic Church accuses the Jewish state of using the biblical concepts of “a promised land” and “a chosen people” to justify its policy.

#3  Sisters of Mercy - Hermanas de la Misericordia

How We Serve:

Each year in November, Sisters of Mercy, Mercy associates, Companions, co-workers, students in our schools and friends join others in advocating for closing the School of the Americas / Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation at Fort Benning, Georgia.

We stand in solidarity with the peoples of Latin America, since many of the officers trained at the SOA/WHINSEC have been implicated in atrocities in their home countries. High-profile cases linked to the SOA include the killings of Archbishop Oscar Romero, the four U.S. churchwomen and the Jesuits, their housekeeper and her daughter.

#2  ...Some of the most viciously political people I've ever known were nuns or priests. While stationed at what used to be Wurtsmith AFB MI, a group of nuns, priests, and "lay workers" tried to sneak onto the base as an anti-nuclear protest. They got caught and thrown off almost instantly, but then showed up on Detroit TV news reports with these incredible lies about all the things they had supposedly seen/done while wandering around the base.
