How the FUCK did Randall Terry get my e-mail address??
Colorado DU'ers might want to take note of this......


Does it bother you that Presidential candidate John Kerry is receiving Holy Communion while he promotes the murder of millions of innocent children?

I'm sure it does!

The Catholic Bishops of America have the authority to intervene and end this scandal.

I am writing to invite you to be a part of a critical project that I and others across the country are working on.

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops is meeting in Englewood (near Denver), Colorado from June 14 through June 19 at the Inverness Hotel and Conference Center. Approximately 250 Bishops are expected to attend.

At their conference in Englewood, we are presenting the Bishops with an open letter, "End the Kerry Scandal," imploring them to end the scandal of John Kerry receiving Holy Communion while he promotes the "choice" of slaughtering innocent human beings by abortion. Here are excerpts from the letter:

"A Prince in the Church recently wrote: 'Denying anyone Communion is a very grave matter. It should be reserved for extraordinary cases of public scandal.' We agree.

"Frankly, it strains the imagination to picture a more extraordinary case of public scandal. A wealthy, powerful politician is aiding in the murder of thousands of children; he is promoting the greatest genocide in the history of the human race; he is embracing homosexual marriage - something even pagan Greeks and pagan Romans did not stoop to. If this is not a case of extraordinary public scandal, then nothing is.

"Every time John Kerry receives Holy Communion it says that the Body and Blood of Christ are not that sacred, and that the murder of innocent children is not that evil: It says that Holy Communion is not that holy, and that child-killing is not that profane. Such a message is intolerable."

We are pleading with every Catholic Bishop in America to publicly state two things to his diocese:

1.) That any politician or candidate (including John Kerry) who promotes the murder of innocent human beings by abortion is not permitted to take Holy Communion in his diocese.

2.) That a Catholic cannot in good conscience support any candidate for any office who supports the murder of innocent human beings by abortion.

I am going to be leading an around-the-clock vigil in front of the Inverness Hotel and Conference Center in Englewood (near Denver), Colorado from Monday morning, June 14 to Wednesday afternoon, June 16. We will be publicly calling upon the Bishops to end the scandal of Kerry's treachery and betrayal. You can participate as well…

Vigils in Your Community


On June 16, from noon to 1 p.m., we will be holding simultaneous vigils and press conferences across America at every possible Bishop's office we can. Our goal is fifty offices nationwide. (This is where you come in…)

Imagine the impact of fifty press conferences and vigils happening at the same time across the entire country. The media impact and ensuing debate could be profound!

I am writing to ask you to participate in one or more of the following ways:

1.--- Forward this email to every person you know who you think may want to be a part of this project.

2.--- Join me in Denver, Colorado if at all possible. I am asking you to spend the money and the time to stand with me on the sidewalk in front of the hotel in Colorado, so that the Bishops can see and feel your presence. (Details are at our web site.)

3.---Host a vigil and press conference at the diocesan office closest to you on June 16 at noon. As you will see at our website, we will walk you through every step for you to gather a crowd and get the media to cover your event. My only request is that you follow our instructions explicitly. (See web site for step by step instructions of what to do.)

4.---Give as generous a contribution as you can to help our efforts. To oversee and put together events such as these takes several thousand dollars; travel expenses, man hours, press costs, and more. (In case anyone is wondering, I will not take one penny of income from this project for my time and leadership. Every penny you give will go directly to the costs of the event.)


My friend, these are dark, desperate times, that call for great clarity and courage if we are going to withstand the tidal wave of evil that is washing over our nation.

What we are doing is not for the fainthearted, nor for the timid. These are times that try men's souls, and call on the deepest convictions in our beings.

If your heart beats with mine in this life and death struggle, then I beg you to fight along side of us in whatever way you can. Go to the website, ponder every word and action we propose, and then determine what you will do.

From the (storm)Front,

Randall Terry,
Founder of Operation Rescue,
President of Society for Truth and Justice

5. Terry was kicked out of his church for leaving his wife.
Seriously. Hooked up with a young staffer, got divorced.

His son is gay, too.

I guess he's got nothing better than to tell the Catholic Church what to do. I personally think closed communion is an abomination of what Jesus preached, but to each his own, and it's their treehouse.

7. Why publicize it?
No offense, but if it were me, I wouldn't have given him some free press by publishing the ENTIRE e-mail in this thread.

Besides, with the recent increase in visiting Freepers here at DU, Terry can potential reach some of them at the last place on earth where he should!

9. True.
Agreed. I was mostly thinking of the Freepers that weren't already on the Randall Terry wacko e-mail list. The less circulation crap like this gets, the better.
