The Pope is smarter than God, evidently.

Why is a pope getting into the details this deep to allow something like this to make him and his words look so incredibly stupid?

Honestly, staying out of the weeds, he could support global warming/Gaia philosophy and not look like he was a kook.

Now, the pope is a kook.

The Catholic Church has been dead for a couple of centuries. The only exception was Pope John who helped Reagan defeat the Soviet Union.

This fraud of a pope just put the last nails in its coffin.

Lefties now have to pretend to like the Pope? That’s pretty funny.

This is a demonstration of how thoroughly society has been undermined by progressivist thinking. The fundamental transformation took place back in the 19th century and we’re finally seeing the more resistant portions of society wicking up the poison.

The pope’s encyclical on the environment is being hailed for its embrace of science, although it is about as scientific as the Catholic hymnal. Pope Francis writes that Sister Earth “now cries out because of the harm we have inflicted on her by our irresponsible use and abuse of the goods with which God has endowed her.” Really? Is that what the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says?

The Rock star pope strikes again. His half-brained comments must be related to his half lung capacity, the brain is starved for oxygen. Seriously, he has no clue what he is talking about.

The Pope is apparently a Socialist first and Pope second, a far second. I fear he will rip out the heart of my church.

Surprising from Politico. Guess they don’t want the Caholic Church ‘encroaching’ on their liberal progressive pseudo-scientific turf.

I can see from other blogs with liberal contacts that I know personally that they are suddenly ecstatic about the Pope. Next he need only congratulate the SCOTUS for legalizing perversion and he will be their hero. He’s close to that now.

Ugly times are getting uglier.

Yes, that’s true except it was Pope John Paul II.

The Holy Spirit is screaming save your soul and come out of her before it’s too late!

Behold, I will throw her on a bed of sickness
