Angry US Republicans Tell Pope Francis To ‘Stick With His Job And We’ll Stick With Ours’
The Guardian ^ | 13 June 2015 | Suzanne Goldenberg

Posted on 06/13/2015 8:50:24 AM PDT by zeestephen

The prospect that the pope, from his perch at the pinnacle of the Catholic church, will exhort humanity to act on climate change as a moral imperative is a direct threat to a core belief of US conservatives. And conservatives – anxious to hang on to their flock – are lashing out.

Heck, everybody who’s not Obama is upset with the Pope and his world-government fantasies.

“Republican conservatives anxious to hang on to their flock”

Right. What a laugh that is. Run conservative, get elected, then govern extreme left. Fixing that more than anything would help them “keep their flock.”

The Catholic vote has almost always gone democratic, do people think that is in spite of the wishes of the European headquarters?

For example, Ted Kennedy could have been used as an example by church leadership to show their denomination's members all that was was wrong with voting democrat, but how did they really treat America's most celebrated Roman Catholic, and greatest leftist of modern America?

What messages did they really use Ted Kennedy's Catholicsm, to send to the Catholic voters?

The Pope is a marxist and has no more moral authority than John Roberts.

“The Pope is a marxist and has no more moral authority than John Roberts.”

Thank you for saying exactly what he is. He needs to be called out. He’s a disgrace!

Were the Pope lecturing China and India, his arguments “might” gain more credibility. But they wouldn’t give him the time of day. So he directs his arguments basically at the US where he knows our educational system is crap, and that the bulk of our population don’t know anything at all, no less the difference twixt meteorology and climatology, and voila!, he has an audience.

How did the communists get Benedict to resign so they could install one of their own?

It’s not a good thing for any Christian, let alone the Pope, to crave the approval of worldly elites as much as Francis does.

Worst Pope in centuries.

“The Pope is a Marxist”

“[C]oncern for the poor is in the Gospel, it is within the tradition of the Church, it is not an invention of communism, and it must not be turned into an ideology ... [C]oncern (for the poor). ... stems from the Gospel and is documented even from the first centuries of Christianity. If I repeated some passages from the homilies of the Church Fathers, in the second or third century, about how we must treat the poor, some would accuse me of giving a Marxist homily. ... St. John Chrysostom stated that ‘not sharing your goods with the poor means robbing and taking away their life.’”
- Pope Francis

The optics from the Vatican are way over my horizon.

I suspect that Benedict was not receiving anywhere near the full cooperation of the rest of the org, but who knows?

Your comments do not speak to the subject of the thread.

If this Pope is buying into ‘Climate Change’ as a manmade phenomenon, he’s not only signing onto a marxist agenda, but he is defying the Bible, claiming that man is more powerful than God (in the form of nature).

The Pope doesn’t seem to be in favor of Personal Liberty.
