it's where the roman catholic church, post-vatican ii, suddenly wants to revert to pre-vatican ii types of practices. it's where the episcopalian- let's say the episcopal and lutheran leadership either rejects or accepts gay marriages, same-sex marriages, and others move toward the more conservative elements. and i can see that that aim to wholeness, which- you know, personally, couldn't be better- is also among the followers- just good reason to create another- maybe sect is too strong a word- but certainly something that's down a slightly different path than what the mother belief is. >> and that's such a great segue into two or three classes down we see exactly why we have sect and cult formation. but your point is really well taken, that there's two dynamics here with this quest for unity. one is the dynamic of "let's be unified," but there's fear with that, because what happens is as you get unified, you lose your uniqueness. now we want to see how that plays out in israel in the next class, where we're going next.

it's a war, remember, started by benedict xvi where the vatican accused our nuns get this of talking too much about poverty and social justice and not talking enough about abortion. in other words, for doing what the gospels preach for doing what jesus did for helping the poor, american nuns are going to be condemned by the vatican. come on, pope francis knows this is wrong. he has read the new testament and read. he knows what the nuns are doing is right. sadly, we discover like all of the popes before him, pope francis is nothing but a member of the vatican boys' club. oh, man. we will be back tomorrow with congresswoman karen bass. have a good one. see you right back here again tomorrow. >> this is "the bill press show."
