Entry: The Broken Compass Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_broken_compass#11490 Post contents: What gets me is that people believe Nicole Kidman to be a Catholic, as she herself has proclaimed, and as her parish priest, Australian bishops, and, I guess, the pope and College of Cardinals agree.In reality, she chose to take the role as the head of "The Magisterium", and is, I would assume, playing the role of "The Whore of Babylon", as anti-Catholics like to portray the Church. What we need are some good old-fashioned excommunications of numerous movie stars, politicians, and members of the hierarchy. It's time for the pope to take a stand and use his absolute power absolutely. The USofA may only have 6% of the world's Catholics, but because it produces most of the world's entertainment, it's time for Benedict XVI to take action. Nothing would do more to let people know that the REAL Magisterium was serious than to see the Bishop of Los Angeles being thrown out onto the street, to live on the street and get back in touch with the pain and suffering and poverty that is out in the real world, and then maybe he would understand the morality that the Church brings to an otherwise barbarian, pagan world.
