I know that he is a Catholic and pro-life.              Carl Anderson:       Generally, we don't comment upon membership status, but Sen. Biden       is not a member of the Knights of Columbus, and in terms of pro-life       matters, the National Right to Life Committee has rated him as 0.               -=end quote=-              This quote was from 2008.              Carl Anderson is/was Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus.       I presume the same policy remains today.              Jeb Bush has publicly stated he is a member       of the Knights of Columbus. So has John Kerry.       And a number of other politicians.              All are pro-life.              The Knights of Columbus is a religious organization, open to       men who are practicing Catholics. Makes no difference what their       political affiliation may be.              Of course, it could be Joe Biden has become a member since 2008.       And it could also be that Joe Biden is very much pro life, as every       person has his/her own opinion as to what qualifies as being pro life.              So what the hell does anybody know who is, and who is not, a member       of the Knights of Columbus? And why should anybody care?              "First, do no harm."              Perhaps Mr. Anderson (and his National Right to Life Committee) can       remind those prisoners on life row how much he loves the death penalty.       And then maybe, just maybe, he can figure out what being pro-life is       all about, and really means.              -Lee              --        The more you play with it the harder it gets       --- MesNews/1.08.05.00-gb        * Origin: nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland (2:221/360.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 80/1 88/0 90/1 103/705 105/81 120/340 123/131       SEEN-BY: 154/10 203/0 218/700 221/0 1 6 360 226/30 227/114 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 700 1016 1017 240/1120 5832 249/206 317 261/38       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/464 1038 288/100 292/854 8125 301/1 113       SEEN-BY: 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/81 120 712/848 770/1       SEEN-BY: 801/188 197 202 900/100 106 108 902/6 7 25 26 27 920/1 2452/250       SEEN-BY: 5058/104       PATH: 221/360 1 280/464 292/854 301/1 80/1 902/27 90/1 229/426           |
