This pope is a Marxist jerk.

Because I do not care what some ordinary Joe from another country says about mine or my salvation.

I just try to ignore this Pope comp!etely. He sounds like a white version of Obama to me. I am one of those fundamentalist Catholics he criticizes.

As a Catholic, I’ll be ignoring him too.

But when the Pope chooses to act and talk like a leftist politician, then he can expect to be treated like one. Artist and columnist Maureen Mullarkey effectively communicated this fallacy stating, “When papal preferences, masked in a Christian idiom, align themselves with ideological agendas (e.g. radical environmentalism) [they] impinge on democratic freedoms and the sanctity of the individual.”

Good for you Congressman. This pope is a leftist tool working to advance the left wing agenda. He deserves to be boycotted. He deserves our strongest condemnation.

I've always had a certain respect for ordinary Joes from foreign countries.

Why do you form your beliefs about the Catholic Churchon secular sources when you don’t trust them on conservatism or Republicans?????

Too late, Pope Francis. Congress has already had one socialist
addressing it this year, you know, the one that has been addressing it every year in January for the past 6 years.

Save your bullsh!t for someone who might be impressed by it. Every time that Marxist jerk (the pope) opens his mouth on some "social justice" issue it's like Marx, Castro, and Lenin resurrected. AND every time he does some jackass apologist comes out of the woodwork and says "oh no, that isn't what he really said" or "Oh no, that isn't what he really meant." or "It wasn't translated properly." etc. I think by now we really do know he's a hard core Marxist. Like I said go peddle your lies and whitewash to someone who might believe them.

Social Justice Warriors Always Lie

“Media reports indicate His Holiness instead intends to focus the brunt of his speech on climate change”

And you think that those media reports are correct?

The White House houses a Socialist Mooselimb President Usurper...

The Vatican houses a Socialist Jesuit Usurper Pope.

Birds of a feather....

I noticed in one of Trump’s interviews or the Town Hall or something (they all run together as I try to watch them all when I have time) that he has no plans to meet the Pope “but he’s a very nice man.”

I am beginning to think Trump’s “a very nice person” is about equal to an Alabama “bless your heart.”

Because Trump is a very nice man...so whether he thinks the guy is or not, that’s what he is going to say...

If you have been around someone who says nice things about people all the time, those type of people know people, they watch them, they listen to them, they know what ‘types’ they are....and then you hear about someone attacking the person that always says ‘nice’ things, watch out, you just pulled the plug off the bomb.....

Gosar is Catholic and he has a Jesuit education. He is a true Catholic, unlike Frank.
