i must remember this...

Those who profess freedom and yet deprecate agitation are people who
want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and
lightning. Power concedes nothing without demand. It never did and never
will. People might not get all they work for in this world, but they
certainly must work for all they get.
~Frederick Douglass

fromt the buddhist community

In 1997 Ratzinger said that Europeans attracted to Buddhism were
actually seeking an "autoerotic spirituality" that offers
"transcendence without imposing concrete religious obligations."
Hindusim, he said, offers "false hope," in that it guarantees
"purification" based on a "morally cruel" concept of reincarnation
resembling "a continuous circle of hell." At the time, Cardinal
Ratzinger predicted that Buddhism would replace Marxism as the Catholic
church's main enemy.


they are calling him the'Rottwieler of God'.
