What are the odds that we would have the worst president of my lifetime serving at the same time as the worst Pope of my lifetime?

But he does hate your lifestyle, your country, and the economic principles upon which your life is built.

Yeah, well, then he oughta sell all the real estate The Catholic Church owns in New York and around the world. While he's at it, he should sell all the gold, art and historic artifacts The Vatican owns.

Better yet, he should give it all away. Heaven forbid he should be party to turning a profit.

I’m about to stop attending the Catholic Church because of my disdain for this leftist disguised as the Pope

There was Reagan, Thatcher, and John Paul, the magnificent three who undid the evil empire.

Now we have the bamster and Frankie. Is there a third counterfeit doofus somewhere to balance the original threesome?

Actually if you consider these as random events the odds are low. But they're NOT random events. They're the current culminations of cultural trends where reality is ignored and some sort of socialist utopia where earned wealth is taken from each according to his ability and give to each according to his (self perceived) need.

The problem is that "need" or more accurately "want" is infinite, and resources and finite. The free market economy has done the best job of allocating these resources of any system ever devised, but "social justice warriors" like the pope and the turd in the white hut can't see that. They're blinded by their false and evil redistributionist ideology. The very term "income inequality" tells you that anyone who uses term as if it were a bad thing is your enemy.

I could rattle on for a long time on this, but I'll spare anyone who read this far any further ranting.

How about Carly? She’s a big enough fraud to fit in!

Pope Che is wrong about just about everything IMHO.

Good article.

It seems to me the next time the College of Cardinals have to pick a pontiff they would consider someone who will stick to spiritual issues and keep his big trap shut on political issues. It certainly does not help one’s moral authority.

[“The Vatican has large investments with the Rothschilds of Britain, France and America, with the Hambros Bank, with the Credit Suisse in London and Zurich. In the United States it has large investments with the Morgan Bank, the Chase-Manhattan Bank, the First National Bank of New York, the Bankers Trust Company, and others.

“The Vatican has billions of shares in the most powerful international corporations such as Gulf Oil, Shell, General Motors, Bethlehem Steel, General Electric, International Business Machines, T.W.A., etc.” (...) ] (from the book the Vatican Billions)

Texas Eagle, I am a practicing Catholic who knows exactly how you feel, but please do not stop going to church! Don't let this Bozo the Clown Pope drive you away. Do what I now do: I make all donations to the Catholic church specific donations to Catholic grade schools, which now get very little support from their parishes. If you write the check to “St. Ann School”, the parish happily will deposit it to the school's account. That way, none of your money is supporting nonsense such as the Campaign for Human Development (which isn't connected to Pope Francis, but advocates the same leftist principals.)

Don't leave the church; just stop writing checks to the church. Instead, write checks to Catholic schools.

My suggestion to His Holiness: Spend a few hours meditating on Job, Chapters 38-42, and see what God really thinks about man’s influence on the environment...just saying!

Maybe the pope f. will put Catholics on the right path, that is the straight and narrow path which is diametrically opposed to this pope’s ideology.

The Catholic Church will see attrition when pope Karl spews his Marxist rhetoric on American soil.

And here I thought the Borgias were the worst popes. I think we have a new winner.

Poverty, ignorance and suffering were the natural state of human beings for millennia. The rise of CAPITALISM has finally changed that although ignorance seems to be making a comeback.

Funny that two of the 10 Commandments support private property... does the Pope not adhere to the 10 Commandments?

Youre right!

As with Obama, it’s those who elected him who are responsible. Obama and Francis are just being what they are.
