Some observations:
* the Pope is a Man and as such, created w/Original Sin.
* as Pope, his words are infallible only when he speaks
   "Ex-Cathedra", from his Chair in the Vatican on matters involving
   Faith and/or Morals, as all other matters are his personal opinion.
* This 82 year old Pope is a Man of the left, being raised in the
   Buenos Aires of Juan Peron.
* The core problem is the corruption within the College of Cardinals,
   the electors of the Pope and it has been so for the last half-century.
Indeed the Papacy has given the world some fools, incompetents and misfits.
Yet it has also produced far more wise heads who have advanced both the
RC Church and humanity given its long list of world ranking scholars in
Architecture, in Philosophy and Logic as well as Science.
This Pontiff shall pass, likely much sooner than later!!!

Oddly enough, this "Pope" is the very definition of a 'fundamentalist'
He is by all thoughts and considerations, a Marxists Agitator.

White smoke, Black smoke, I don't care.
Smoke this crazy 'I don't know' Pope while you can.
He is insane.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Someone ought to tell the pope about Matthew 18:20. Of course, someone ought to tell the fundamentalists about it as well, since they often question the validity of gay churches and whatnot.  Christ was pretty clear about all that was necessary for Him to recognize a congregation.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

So 2 or 3 persons would have given the West the Bible? Alright.

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump. I ran over and said: "Stop. Don't do it."

"Why shouldn't I?" he asked.

"Well, there's so much to live for!"

"Like what?"

"Are you religious?"

He said: "Yes."

I said: "Me too. Are you Christian or Buddhist?"

"Christian."

"Me too. Are you Catholic or Protestant?"

"Protestant."

"Me too. Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?"

"Baptist."

"Wow. Me too. Are you Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord?"

"Baptist Church of God."

"Me too. Are you original Baptist Church of God, or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?"

"Reformed Baptist Church of God."

"Me too. Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915?"

He said: "Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915."

I said: "Die, heretic scum," and pushed him off.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
@TomSea

Who deserves it more? I can't think of ANY organization more corrupt and power-mad than the Catholic Church,and it has been like that all through history.

Every heard the expression "Speak truth to power!"?
You should spend more time looking at the UN and our own Congress. Sheesh!

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

A pox on all houses.
This is just another example of what happens when Torah is subsumed by tradition.
The predictable end is after all, predictable. In fact - It is written.

Locked.

You are welcome to hold a discussion in another area of the board, going full apologetics is not the place for this. We know we've been told numerous times, this is not a religious forum.

Pope Francis Compares Trump To Herod, Who Tried To Kill Jesus

Pope Francis Compares Trump To Herod, Who Tried To Kill Jesus
 

(Breitbart) – Pope Francis has compared U.S. President Donald Trump to the murderous King Herod who massacred innocent children in ancient Palestine while trying to kill the baby Jesus, a Jesuit journal revealed Thursday.

Speaking with his brother Jesuits during his recent visit to Thailand, the Argentinian pope minced no words in his thinly veiled condemnation of the U.S. president and his administration, suggesting that like a modern-day Herod, Mr. Trump separates families at the border while allowing drugs to freely flow into the country.

“In other parts there are walls that even separate children from parents. Herod comes to mind,” Francis said. “Yet for drugs, there’s no wall to keep them out.”

Topic merged. If you are going to post anti- Pope Francis articles, they can go here. It would be nice to think about others here, instead of just dumping these anti-Pope articles. This is more about immigration too but I won't move this article.  @rangerrebew
