Stop mischaracterizing the middle ages.  The state was in control, not
the Vatican.  People think the inquisition was one execution after
another, but it was not.  Obama wants abortion to the point of being
opposed to a partial birth abortion ban.  He wants to put special rooms
in hospitals and clinics to help women "feel better about losing their
children."

Again, all you had to do in most cases is repent.  And again, mostly
kings and local officials were in control over the populace, not the
Vatican.  Lastly, the Church has apologized for the excesses of the
middle ages.

It is a fact that Obama is immoral.  He doesn't even believe in 
bringing Bin Laden to justice favoring Bin Laden's murder instead.  
There is no such thing as spam on an off topic and potentially 
flammable list.  If my opinions and facts bother you, you can
get off of plug-talk at any time.
