Obama 'Arrogant': Vatican

Story here.

ht: Drudge Report

Yes, Obama is very, very arrogant.

But that's ok; he's a Leftist, and Leftists are allowed to be whatever they want, 'cause they're Leftists.

That's the rule of things, at least as far as Leftists are concerned.

It is "the arrogance of someone who believes they are right, in signing a decree which will open the door to abortion and thus to the destruction of human life," Archbishop Rino Fisichella was quoted as saying by the Corriere della Sera daily.

(...)

"What is important is to know how to listen... without locking oneself into ideological visions with the arrogance of a person who, having the power, thinks they can decide on life and death," he added.


Reminds me of the likes of Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Ahmadinejad... they all demonstrated the very same kind of arrogance as does Obama, deeming who is and who isn't allowed to live, rationalizing their order by citing their ideology and nothing else. To deem unborn human beings to be non-human, and therefore unworthy of protection from murder, is, in and of itself, evil, and will lead to further evil, namely folks like Obama deeming which human beings
, who have actually been born, are to be considered "human" and "not-human", thus worthy or unworthy of the right to life as guaranteed in the US Constitution ("...right to life..."). If Obama deems that unborn human beings are not human, then what's stopping him from deeming that I'm not human and you're not human, thus marking us for extermination as "inconvenient pests" or something?

"If this is one of the first acts of President Obama, with all due respect, it seems to me that the path towards disappointment will have been very short," Fisichella said.

"I do not believe that those who voted for him took into consideration ethical themes, which were astutely left aside during the election debate. The majority of the American population does not take the same position as the president and his team," he added.
