It was obvious after this pope was elected he was a raging liberal, early on in this forum when his fallacies were pointed out many defended him with long diatribes as how he was constantly being taken out of context and to why he was a holy blessing... the good news is he is not defended so much anymore, sometimes it takes too long for eyes to open.
The pope or any other so-called spiritual leader is just a man his wisdom is as weak as any other human he has no more special connection to God than any other as so many suppose, the wisdom of man is foolishness to God, wise up trust not in the words which man’s wisdom teach.
Mahmud Abbas wrote his college thesis on the holocaust being a myth. What’s next, will this pope call Satan an angel of peace? Wow.
[Pope Francis met Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas on Saturday, calling him “an angel of peace,”]
Yeah, we all saw what happened via this ‘angel of peace’ at Munich in 1972.
I’d say liar, not confused.
Deceiving the idiot portion of the world.
FYI
I am not Catholic either, so I can’t answer that question very well.
All I can say is that I recall that there is or was some sort of controversy with Pope Benedict’s stepping down.
This guy though, who I do not even want to refer to as Pope, is just awful.
Or call down fire in plain view of men?
It doesn’t seem like anything I want to be a part of.
It seems like some sort of political institution now, and that is a shame.
“is there a good explanation as to why “the rottweiler” Pope stepped down and this seemingly liberation-theology-believing guy was put in as Pope?”
My theory is that it’s simply the “god business” trying to appeal to apostates. The Catholic Church needs more revenue, so they’ve put in a guy who will sell indulgences.

Pope F. Is certainly making a strong case for for fulfilling the Malachy prophecy for the Popes.
Isaiah 5:20: “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for.”
The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. …
— Zuheir Mohsen of the PLO to Truow, 03/31/1977
Abbas never kept the Oslo agreement. He paid murderers and their families money to infiltrate Israel and kill civilians.
Over 100 were tried in Israel and convicted of murder. Abbas got stupid Livni to let them go, and as soon as she did Abbas formed a unity pact with Ham@ss.
Ehud Olmert offered Abbas 98% of what he wanted out of Oslo
including half of Jerusalem where Pallies never had a state.
Abbas wants all of Israel gone so he turned it down.
Abbas is guilty of incitement, teaching hatred of Jews, 2 organized Anti FARTers. Abbas is in the 10th year of his 4 year term in office. He is not only a dictator but has stolen funds meant for impoverished Pallies.
A dictator, a liar, a murderer, a hater, and the cheif reason that their isn’t peace. Some Prince of Peace.
The Pope was supposed to be a friend of Israel? He is not,
and the Pope acts like he smokes Dope.
This pope is a Communist, a spawn of Satan.
This jerk pope is a total Communist.
You are correct. Francis is a talking mule. :-)
“This jerk pope is a total communist.”

FATHER GABRIEL NADDAF ADDRESSES THE UN
Mr. President, I am speaking to you on behalf of UN Watch.
Standing before you is Father Gabriel Naddaf, a Christian citizen from Nazareth, the city in which Christ was raised and where he proselytized.
Dear Sirs, while I stand before you today, the earth of the Middle East is soaked with the blood of Christians being killed daily.
Do you know that at the start of the 20th century, Christians comprised 20% of the population of the Middle East?
Today they comprise only 4%.
Do you know that over the past years some 100,000 Christians have been killed annually? And why? Not for a crime they’ve committed, but only for believing in Christ.
In Iraq alone, more than 77% of the Christians have fled during the year 2000, in addition to thousands killed and expelled.
Some 2 million Christians lived in Syria, but today, they are less than 250,000.
Christians in these countries are treated as second-class citizens; facing racial, religious, economic and social discrimination.
Why is this happening? Only due to their religion, a religion that advocates love and peace between mankind.
Christians in the Middle East are marginalized; their rights denied, their property stolen, their honor violated, their men killed, and their children displaced.
Where will they go? Who will defend them? And who will guard their property?
If we look at the Middle East, Mr. President, we realize there’s only one safe place where Christians are not persecuted.
One place where they are protected, enjoying freedom of worship and expression, living in peace and not subjected to killing and genocide.
It is Israel, the country I live in. The Jewish state is the only safe place where the Christians of the Holy Land live in safety.
Christians and Jews live in Israel not only because Christ was originally Jewish, born in Jewish Bethlehem, but because they share a common destiny, and a true hope to coexist in peace.
Does the world acknowledge Israel for protecting its Christians? Many in the international community have chosen to criticize Israel.
This, in my mind, is a double crime: because by doing so, the international community helps those striving to annihilate the Jews, the Christians, the Druze and the Yazidis for political ends.
By doing so, the international community unfortunately contributes to exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in the Middle East.
It causes Christians to leave the land of Christ searching for a safe haven across the world.
It is time for the world to awaken and realize the truth of those striving to destroy the Jewish state.
They are hastening the death sentence of Christians in the Middle East and the Holy Land, the land which witnessed the birth and life of our Lord Jesus Christ. If they leave, who will remain in it?
I, Father Gabrial Naddaf of Nazareth, stand before you and plead: O world leaders and supporters of peace, stop those who want to destroy the only free Jewish state in the region.
It is the only refuge welcoming and protecting all of its citizens. It is the only place that does not attempt to push out Christians, forcing them to leave their land in search of security.
I implore you from the bottom of my heart to hear the cry of the Christians of the Middle East before it is too late, and you may read about them only in the history books.
Thank you, Mr. President.
Now this man is truly Holy
“The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. …”
It has always been my understanding that there really is no such thing historically as a Palestinian. They were a post-WWII “creation” of the Arab World to be used as a foil in perpetuity, against Israel. Looks as though it’s been very effective.
This pope francis is to the Catholic Church as president obama is to the United States of America.
Both seem determined to undermine and destroy.
