Pope: Catholics Don't Have to Breed 'Like Rabbits'
NewsMax ^ | January 19, 2015

Posted on 01/19/2015 5:12:26 PM PST by ebb tide

>>No, he said, Catholics don't have to "be like rabbits" and have more children than is safe or responsible. <<

>>Francis said he would have loved to have entered the U.S. via the Mexican border, saying it would have been a "beautiful thing, as a sign of brotherhood and of help to the immigrants."<<

>>"But you know that going to Mexico without going to visit the Madonna (of Guadalupe) would be a drama. A war could break out!" he said, laughing. He said a Mexico visit would come in the future.<<

The question “Is the Pope Catholic?” takes on a whole new meaning with Frances.

I’m beginning to prefer the bear.

Astounded that newsmax would even put this out. Must be an anti-Catholic.

If the Pope actually said this, why hide it? If the Pope actually said this, people should be aware.

Does not sound Popely to me.

So the pope is encouraging people to break laws.....for what reason? Because they want another country’s free stuff?

Would he be so willing to let people break into the Vatican and not only squat there, but demand to be fed, sheltered, clothed, and medical needs taken care of?

He may be willing to give away other people’s freedoms, money, rights, but they are not his to give away. He is encouraging stealing.

The new question is: “Does the Pope poop on Catholics?”

Great. Convincing Christians to have fewer children while loving on Muslim enemies who REALLY breed like rabbits. How stupid is this anti-pope?

Do you question whether he said it or not? Newsmax's article was an AP report. Do you question this source?

Catholic News Agency: Pope confirms three US stops in September, no Mexico for now

This was their quote:

....."During his in-air press conference Sept. 19 [I believe this should be Jan. 19], Pope Francis did comment on the possibility of adding Mexico to his agenda. The Pope said that “to enter the USA from the border of Mexico would be a beautiful thing, as a sign of brotherhood and of help to the immigrants.” "...........
