SANTO DOMINGO.- The Dominican Episcopal Conference’s General Secretary on Thursday said Supreme Court (SCJ) president Jorge Subero must should the Catholic Church’s constructive criticism of the Judiciary more humility.
Francisco Jiménez, who said the church’s function isn’t to file charges against anybody and make constructive criticism to solve social problems instead, admitted that the men and women of the Catholic Church aren’t free of sin either, because all humans make mistakes.
The prelate’s statements are in response to Subero’s rebuke of the Catholic Church criticism of the Judicial Branch in Last Sermon of the Seven Words, on which the Chief Justice said: "He who is free of sin can cast the first stone."
The pries also announced several conferences scheduled during the International Book Fair, starting May 4.

Mr. Jimenez, you imbasil ..... Its not a mistake being corrupt, a thief and a lier. The church definitely has problems of its own, like fondling boys and running off with someones wife(no mistakes there), but, to say that everybody make mistakes is childish . I would like for you to note your alleged mistakes and let the public decide...
From: Dominican Republic, vieja Santo Domingo
I thought the Chief Justice made a very good statement and the original statement from the Church was not at all constructive but very general .But I would be very happy to make some constructive suggestions to the church which I am sure they would not receive with any humility .
1 Improve the education levels of your followers
2 Concentrate more on the problems of the living than the embryos
3 Encourage the use of condoms to prevent unwanted pregnancies and so Aids does not spread
4 Concentrate the efforts on the welbeing of the soul and forget what people may do in their bedrooms .
5 Lead a life of example with love and humility

The church listen to anybody but themselves and their leaders who definitely do not have the best interest of the masses at heart? Ludicrious.... They just want to keep their piece of the pie and increase it if they can, like everyone else in this world. But if they believe what they preach they'll get theirs soon enough, if only everyone coud see it it here, live and in the now....lol.

Any human being, whether from a church or not can criticize anybody from government and vice versa. Let us keep things real and simple. Everybody's crap o $hit stinks. Arguing and criticizing endlessly is not a virtue. Let us get moving and get things done before we drop dead or before we forget to resolve matters at hand in this life. Less bullshit, more human action and human interaction. How is that for simplicity? LOL.... Do I sound very humble? My criticism of the the church: clean things up from within the church. If your angels are lily white, you better put up some angels that are brown or like sun roasted almonds, such as myself o such as raza negra from DR. My lady friends, some negras sabrosas should be offended going to church decorated with white saints. Give me a f***ing break! That's total bullshit: total social inequality, total insult and total harm against those of us of color. Clean up your church and have angels of all colors, instead of European white angels only!

The Catholic Church can criticize anyone but believe they should be immune to criticism.

Kaliman, of course Catholic saints are "white" -
The Christian Bible justifies racism on the basis of skin color, and endorses slavery and the maltreatment of slaves.
"When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property."
Exodus 21:20-21

The New Testament did away with the old Jewish laws (except the Ten Commandments.) The laws were very tough for the israelites as God wanted a select race of people and to rid the world of the bad ones.Well yes a sort of natural selection after the fall of Adam and Eve.The naughty Jews did behave and so they were no longer the chosen ones.
Jesus was the final sacrifice on the Mercy seat of the Ark of the Covernant under Skull Hill. His laws are now to be followed and they are easy. The Old Testament is not to be forgotten as there is so much prophecy in there and the New Testament refers often to the old. So no the laws in many of the early books do NOT apply.

Remind me, where in the New Testament does Jesus say the Old Testament is invalid? Book(s), chapter(s) and verse(s) please.
Also which Ten Commandments are you referring to? There are two versions in Exodus and one more in Deuteronomy and they are all different.

@ RoyStone from Australia. G'day mate! I don't go to church because I am offended by those "white" saints and imagery within the church. It makes me want to vomit or piss. I am brown and I have a beautiful "Hawaiian" sun tan gotten from the beautiful tropics of good old Mexico, LOL. May I seek political-religious asylum in Australia or do you have the same fascist, racist problems out there? I would like to meet Crocodile Dundee so that we can go hunt us some crocs for lunch. Say hello to Paul Hogan for me. He appears to be very civilized, as I am. The only time we don't need to be civilized is when we are hunting our food, LOL. G'bye Mate.

Kaliman,
why is Crocodile Dundee the only Australian people on this site have heard of? Paul Hogan is not sure if he is Australian anyway. He told the US tax department he is an Australian resident, and the Australian tax department he is a US resident!
Regarding seeking political-religious asylum in Australia, I don't think American, US or DR citizen qualify. If you are Muslin who consider Australians are infidels and want to trash the place and live of the welfare system, then the vast majority of Australians don't want you. However the government and opportunistic immigration lawyers will encourage you to come, and bring Islam with you.
Regarding my baptism, I have already been baptized, and confirmed so don't need to be dunked in and DR river - would probably become infected with Cholora and not the Holy Spirit!
Hey you don't have to be a white Nazi to be a Catholic saint. There are hundreds of black ones listed at

Kaliman,
The corpses of white saints turn black eventually anyway. True! I saw some in glass-top coffins under the cathedral in Kiev Ukraine.
How do you get a Hawaiian tan in Mexico or California? Are you "geographically challenged"?
You want to hut crocks? For your lunch or theirs? In Australia they are protected and I am happy with that.

@ "RoySToned".... International humor mate. Let's roll! Tropical weather exists in many places. Google "Hawaiian Suntan" or PF5 Coppertone coconut scent or try "Maui Babe" Browning Lotion. You can take some of it to the white saints that are blindly adored by Christians or Catholics alike.... BTW, social injustices such as racism are derivatives of some religions that worship light or whiteness as symbolic of virtue. Angels with a Hawaiian Suntan would normally not be appreciated. When we find ourselves on the receiving end of this racial hatred, we seem to recognize it better than others.... Wish you luck getting a nice Hawaiian suntan in Australia next to a well-tamed dingo or next to a resting water-buffalo, LOL....Or you can rent a Barbie, ha ha ha, as in “Shrimp and the Barbie”…. G'bye mate!

Kaliman,
Seems you are more obsessed with skin color than the Ku-Klux-Klan!
Christians OR Catholics?
Catholics ARE Christians - they invented the Bible at the Council of Nicea in 325
Most Christians ARE Catholics too - although I have noticed the even more deluded Evangelists are rapidly taking market share. Doesn't matter - Islam will beat them both, mark my words.
By the way, water-buffalo are not Australian. They were stupidly introduced then set free, just like rabbits, foxes, blackberries, cane-toads and Muslims.
Dingos, then domesticated dogs, were also introduced thousands of years ago from South-East Asia. However as there were no other domesticated species in Australia at the time, they reverted back closer to their wild ancestors, Canis lupus dingo, and away from Canis lupus familiaris.
Undomesticated Aborigines have been in Australia since the Dreamtime (a deranged state of mind cause by sniffing petrol - analogous to listening to Pentecostal preachers for hours).
