Benedicta -- say good things but do nothing.

God must have been feeling deicidal this week
when He decided to let Ratzinger become Pope --
because the Cardinal had said strange things
about the moral authority that opposes State:
as if moral protests exposes lies of State,
as if moral authority opposes corrupt laws.

Moral authority never works like that.
Moral authority protests against injustice
in want, hunger, thirst, exposure, poverty;
moral authority protests against the vanity of man,
the vanity that dresses itself in long robes,
and parades around in front of cameras,
that chants insanity,
that waves its hands,
showering its holy water on us,
that leaves us dirty,
filthier than when we came.

What does Benedict damn with his good saying?
He damns all liberals, feminists, modernists.
Those are his good words, his hate sayings.

Benedicta: oxymoronic of evil's own epitome.
