Oh Boy, this is new world order off-the-cuff doctrine at its finest.
Is Benedict rested up yet?
He's projecting.
What exactly does he consider “Rigid”?
So, The 10 Commandments are now The 10 Ideals?
Thank goodness for Pope Francis. I was a little bit worried there.
As a Protestant, I am beginning to wonder if the Pope really is Catholic.
Don’t complain, vote with your feet. After straddling the fence for years, Dope Francis made leaving the Church so easy and guilt free. And I have more money in my pocket.
I’m not leaving.
This too shall pass.
The Ten Vague Guidelines
1. Whatever.
2. You know, yada yada.
3. Be a bit careful on this one, especially you know.
4. Give money to the church.
5. Umm, get back to me on this one.
6. Don’t tell too many people.
7. If you gotta, you gotta.
8. Man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.
9. Yeah, that one.
10. There has to be ten?
It won’t exactly pass - it will schism. I’m going to be on the side of 2,000 years of Catholic Church, not Francis’ side.
Perfect.
Oh my, have we finally found out, the Pope is not Catholic?
*Of course, the off-the-cuff doctrine MIGHT be the media interpretation of what the Pope says.
**We know how the media LOVE the Catholic Church.
***We know how FAITHFULLY the media try to be clear about what the Pope said.
****Next the media will turn to Hollyweird for THEIR opinions. That should be fun. THEY love the strictures that the Christian faith imposes on folks...who just want to have a good time.
*****We ALWAYS learn ALL the good stuff that the Pope does, as well, with EQUAL vigor in reporting! [Free showers and barbers in the Vatican, for example]
Oh well.
Popes have NOTHING to do with Protestants, so why get one's shorts in a bunch about a man who lives 10,000 miles away within Italy? He had NOTHING to do with anything non-Catholic, Hindu or Muslim, so why bother?
Just curious about all the angst and anger.
Gee, you not been paying attention to this guy’s rhetoric? He is ecumenism on steroids. Do you know what that word means, ecumenism?
He gets stupider and stupider. Or, more and more out-of-the-closet. It’s been clear for years that he cannot get enough of sodomites, trannies, etc. I think we will learn shortly after his death why he has this fascination with unchaste perverts.
Intellectually, totally unqualified to be a bishop, let alone Pope. He’s a nasty, vindictive man. Everything he has said or done should be repudiated by the next Pope.
The old rhetorical question “Is the Pope Catholic?” will have to be retired.
Jesus was very rigid.
Always “go and sin no more” this and “go and sin no more that.”
Millions of non-Catholics look to the Catholic Church for a certain clarity and stability, even though they do not adhere to the Church with an act of faith. When there is a bad Pope—and this one is, in some respects, the worst Pope of all time—they miss that clarity and stability they are used to.
