Here, I just posted this in another thread.
looooooooooooooooool, did you seriously just tell me that ALL the Catholics in Canada are in mortal sin, since some of the taxes in this country fund abortions?
Quick, someone tell Cardinal Ouellet and Cardinal Collins - they shouldn't be serving the pope in mortal sin. And the cardinals from the UK. And the cardinals from Australia. And most of the other Cardinals.
You aren't in mortal sin if your country funds abortions with tax dollars. It is a question of PROXIMITY.
You incur a latae sententiae excommunication if: you drive a woman to her abortion appointment; you are the woman receiving the abortion; you are the doctor who performed the abortion; you are on a health committee that approves an abortion for a patient and are directly responsible for whether or not she receives it (ie, directly telling the doctor to perform the abortion or not). Those people are in CLOSEST PROXIMITY to the abortion - DIRECTLY enabling it.
You do NOT incur an excommunication through simply living in a country that uses tax dollars to fund abortion. Nor are you in mortal sin simply by paying taxes to said government. You aren't in control of HOW they use your taxes. Heck, you don't even know where your particular portion of tax money goes - yours could go to the police force or to a public library, and your neighbours could go to healthcare and somehow end up paying for the anaesthesia used in abortions or the hospital bed that a woman uses after her abortion.
I don't know why I post here. I swear you are all out of your minds. Crazy American individualists with a God complex.
The crazoid cooties? With a dash of victimhood vapors?Hey, don't beat around the bush... we can take it. Tell us how you really feel.
BTW, there was this Canadian chick that tried to slap me at a gas station because I was from the USA and was usuing the gas station bathroom. Looney! Maybe she thought if she used the same toilet she would catch whatever the USA has?

I love America.I was also heading home after a lot of drinking and other things that I could only do in Canada for an 18 year old. I probably had it coming...
I'm sorry she slapped you, but it made me laugh. That is so random and nonsensical.
I love America.
Some of the attitudes I can do without.
The self importance & diarrhea of the mouth.
The self absorption... I live here & sometimes just shake my head at the absurdity.
I can only image how someone outside the country sees it.
Plus the fact that we produced Paris Hilton who seems to walk with her vagina leading her in those ridiculous poses & then purrs out the words: That's hot!From the outside looking in we seem like a very arrogant and superficial nation that cares only for itself. In China they think we are devils. Strange that we now do almost all our trade with them and make them rich and we become poorer.
Personally, I think we are (in general) blissfully ignorant with a cellular phones and mocha coffee and believe we have the best place in the world to live. To me we aree lke the Titanic and no one is aware of the giant iceberg fastly approaching as the Captain increases the speed towards or destruction.
The following the vagina walk?that's hot

And America follows suit.
