I guess that after we had three or four very credible popes in a row (each different, but I think all very respectable), now we got this one....

to put it kindly, nobody’s luck lasts forever....?

Aren’t popes suppose to be experts on religion? It’s not like you have to train a bunch!

The current pope is an affirmative action pick and just like the disaster we have in the US over getting Obama as a result, the Catholic church now has its own disaster to deal with.

A critical remark about Biblical fundamentalism from the head of a church who famously murdered 50,000 Albigenians, as many Cathars and Waldensians. Then moved on the the medieval inquisitions in Spain, Portugal, employing the Dominicans and Jesuits to carry out Gregory XIII Inquisition. Then on thru the ages right up to the Condordat of 1929 with Mussolini turning a blind eye to the killing of 800,000 Bosnians and Croats, with the tacit approval of Pope Pious IX. It has been estimated that since 1177 the mass murder of "heretics" ordered by the popes have grown to between 70 million and 100 million. Of course, the catholics did not employ beheading routinely. They perfected the art of racking, stretching, the garruchua, strappado, toca, malleus malefactor, and then on to the skinning and or burning, even children, alive on a wooden pyre.

And this pope dares to declare moral equivalency of terrorist Muslims and fundamental Bible-believing Christians? Look in the mirror Francis. Where are the Archbishops to rein him in?

“It has been estimated that since 1177 the mass murder of “heretics” ordered by the popes have grown to between 70 million and 100 million.”

Estimated by lunatics.

No. It’s not.

It’s idiocy.

It’s generally leftists who can’t do math who say such things.

“Ben Affleck loves this Pope.”

If he keeps saying the same stuff ISIS is going to love this Pope too.

Seems like the pope has taken a fancy to speaking for himself.

You saying it is idiocy does not remove the stain to the Inquisitions ordered by the Popes and carried out by his appointees. Look at the persecution of the Albigenians, Cathars, the Lopers. Wycliff, Hus, the witch hunts of the 15th century, the treatment of Jews in Spain by the Popes. Check out the Cardinal Juan de Torquemada (a particularly nice fellow), the Portugal Inquisition, then the Lutherans, the Lollards, Calvin, and so much more. Before you shoot of your mouth why don’t you try reading a little history and present the facts, not your invective. Once you begin with invective, devoid of logic and reason, you have lost the debate. Don’t write back to me.

It’s hard to believe you can be so bereft of any mathematical or numerical ability, or ability to think and analyze critically or rationally.

70 - 100 million is a very large number, my friend.

All religions have their fanatics. Catholics have people who pray in Latin, Muzzies have people who chop off heads.

Same same.

It was posted today. Do a search on Ferguson and you’ll probably be able to find it.

Agree with you. Totally agree. It used to be that I was excited that it seemed we could be the generation to go through the tribulation and not taste death before we meet our Lord. But as it unfolds there is a sense of amazement, but sadness. Many are so lost and it might come to pass that even we will need to stay vigilant in guarding our faith and salvation.
