Jeb Bush – cathylick.

…
At Communion and Liberation’s annual Rimini Meeting last week, Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida, spoke about why he decided to become a Catholic and of his opposition to those elected officials who think they should keep their faith “in a safety deposit box.”
…
Answering a question put to him after he had delivered a talk strongly critical of big government, Bush said what primarily attracted him to the faith were the “sacraments of the Catholic Church, the timeless nature of the message of the Catholic Church, and the fact that the Catholic Church believes in and acts on absolute truth as its foundational principles and doesn’t move with modern times as my former religion did.”

Tomorrow is the big day in Florida.

We need to pray for a Newt victory.

Making a living in politics as I do, I can see a devious trick being played on our friend. It is class politics.

The candidate who has not been divorced is using class politics against Newt. That is, men who have had bad wives should all be rejected as suitiable candidates for President.

That is just unAmerican.

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

Actually, Newt's had more than three marriages. Those three you keep hearing about are only the ones in the USA, so it was easy for the reporters to document. Over here in Asia - where Newt's been making monthly "fact-finding tours" - he's been married and divorced so many times that we set up a wedding chapel and divorce court in a local hospital just to accommodate him.


They even named the Cancer Clinic after Newt

I don't spend much time down in the Beaner countries, but my contacts down in Latin America tell me that Newt is such a frequent visitor to the breast cancer wards that they've nicknamed him "El Cancer."

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

I would have no problem with Newt, if he just didn't divorce the women.

Matthew 5:32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

There is only one reason for divorce, and that's a cheating wife. We know it wasn't the woman who cheated, it was the man.

EXCEPT, that Newt didn't commit adultery. Since adultery is only between a man and a married woman (Leviticus 20:10); and Newt only put his willy into girls that he later married (that we know of) then we have no proof that he wasn't betrothed to these women prior to the first time of intercourse. *shudders*

The issue is not adultery, as no adultery was committed. The issue is that his wives weren't biblical enough to allow him to have multiple wives, like Jacob (Israel) did, like David did, like Solomon did.

In fact, he's more like Solomon.

1 Kings 11:4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.

Newt's religion changing ways is exactly like Solomon. You wonder why a man changes his religion? It's because of the tang!

But, again, I harp on the changing of religion, which isn't what this thread is about.

My problem is that he divorced these women, WITHOUT having cause, which is the women being fornicators.

I wonder did he marry the third woman in a Cathylick church? He claims to be Cathylick now, so is his marriage valid in the eyes of his church? Is "wife has disease" reason enough for annulment in the eyes of the Cathylicks. (Pappy Mo, can you do some research on this to see if his marriage is valid?)

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

I think the good folks over at the conservative Town Hall bring up an interesting point here. Despite the author being blasé about Jesus and the Bible (KJV1611), we are missing the role of Newt's women in all this. Newt was a victim of the Supreme Court banning prayer in the public schools and the ensuing sexual revolution and the harlots it produced. Sure, "open marriage" was a '70s thing but Newt was seduced by it and was given to a youthful exuberance here. We can all give thanks that at least Newt wasn't engaging in homer sex, diddling pages while he was in congress, and hanging around bathrooms in the Minneapolis airport.

A Naughty Newt, A Bitter Ex and Misplaced Rage
Doug Giles
Jan 22, 2012

As a Christian, I will neither defend nor excuse Newt’s past adultery. That said, after watching his ex-wife Marianne go off on him on ABC, as a man, I now get why he supposedly wanted an “open marriage.” Holy crikey. That chick is scary! Hell hath no fury like a furry woman. That’s one angry, gangrenous ex-Gingrich chica right there, folks. Let’s see … what do we have here? Lonely and bitter? Table for one?

Now, before I get my inbox stuffed with hate mail labeling me insensitive, calling Newt a cad, and painting Marianne as a damsel in distress, let me state up front that … I know … he was … and oh, please.

Someone help me here. When did Marianne start giving a crap about Gingrich committing adultery? She didn’t mind his “open marriage” policy when she was doing the fig Newton with him while he was married to his first wife, Jackie.

Yep, this is the same Marianne who was spooning Newt while his wife was in the hospital. Oh, I forgot. I’ve transgressed. I cannot blame Marianne for her adultery. Only guys, especially conservative guys, are the villains in an adulterous affair. Women, according to the lame stream media and the loons on the Left, are helpless victims who are not responsible for their wanton ways. Hallelujah. Ain’t that convenient?

Now, Newt, according to his own admission, was a scallywag. But also according to his own admission, he has repented. Is it BS? I don’t know. All I know is that when people verbally repent we’re supposed to forgive them. I believe that’s how the Jesus movie went. And it looked as if lots of South Carolinians were ready to forgive Gingrich judging from the standing ovation they gave him after he horsewhipped John King when he brought up Newt’s past peccadilloes.

Oh, and by the way, I believe according to Christ that if you look at a woman lustfully you’ve committed adultery in your heart in His holy estimation. In other words, we’re all guilty, and Jesus is the only one ever to navigate that tightrope successfully. As Dennis Miller once said, “He that hath an empty hand, let him throw the first stone.”

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

OK, first they smote (?) Jesus enemies, and then He healed the priest. One can se parallells in how the USA first bombs and terrorizes the population and then rebuilds the land (Halliburton and so furth), institutes democracy or perhaps a Western-friendly regime.

Your anti American butt hurt Johnson has nothing to do with this thread about Newt.

Honestly, we don't care how you Europeans feel, you Swedish or what ever the piffle twit. Go to some kiddys forum and have your junvile temper tantrum.

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

Thank you, comrade. Why is the direct quote from Luke more valid as testimony than the one from Matthew? Is there some kind of hierarchy between the different parts of gospel?

Because - to the best of my knowing - God values all parts of the Holy Book equally, all of them should be followed - none ignored.

I hope you're not suggesting that Jesus contradicted Himself, friend.

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

Ron Paul is a lunatic radical without any kind of contact with reality.

He actually believes that the Arabs NOT want to be christened and democratized by means of warfare and destruction. And for some reason is he against huge military camps in Europe and Asia. That's dangerous talk, right there. He's foreign policy is utterly absurd, and: He's not clear on whether homosexuality is a sin!

What would Jesus do though, concerning the question on foreign policy (I'm but a layman scripturally speaking, please bear with me):

Matthew 26:52 Then said Iesus vnto him, Put vp againe thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword, shall perish with the sword.

Were you thinking of this direct quote from Jesus?

Luke 22:36 King James Bible
Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Christ was no long haired, peace loving hippie friend.

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

Now Zeke, I didn't say he was a Baptist, I said he was a Christian in name.

Which is a darned sight closer to finding Jesus than a devout Catholic, a Catholic-by-marriage who abandoned Jesus for his mistress, a Mormon, or a Muslim.

I don't know a thing about politics since I am but a woman, but I do know that a man would never sneak out on his wife if she knew how to treat him like a man in the bedroom. If there is any blame, it belongs to his ex-wife. Just saying.

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

What did Doctor Blow have to say about Newt breaking his vows before God? Does that make for a better President?

How about the fact that he is living in sin, in a 'marriage' that God would not recognize as valid, and that he has rejected God for Mary-worship?

Do those make this guy a better President, too?

Ron Paul is the one and only Christian running for the nomination. I don't understand why we aren't supporting him. He's for allowing each state to establish its own Christian theocracy, for crying out loud! Iowa could be first!

Re: Newt's Three Marriages Will Make Him a Better President.

The more I think about it, I don't see why the definition of traditional marriage has to remain forever, "between one man and one woman."

It seems like it could be ammended, as in Newt's case, to "between one man, one woman and his girlfriend."

As long as the addition of a third party is not a gay person, and forgiveness is grated by God, it don't think we should judge too harshly.
