Pope Francis Abandons Christ’s Cross to Appease Muslims
P. J. Media ^ | 4/12/2022 | RAYMOND IBRAHIM

Pope Francis, a leading advocate of Doormat Christianity, is at it again. Although it is traditional for papal podiums to depict the crucifix, during his recent visit to the island of Malta, Pope Francis ditched the cross lest it offend Muslim migrants. As the archdiocese of Malta openly admitted, “The podium will not be adorned with a crucifix, given that the majority of migrants are Muslim.”

Instead, the podium backdrop used by Francis consisted of recycled plastic bottles with red blobs meant to highlight the two primary reasons Francis was visiting Malta — to defend migrants and the environment. “When you look deeper, you will see that the sea is made of recycled plastic bottles, because there is more plastic than fish in our sea,” artistic director Carlo Schembri explained. “And the red blobs are life jackets — the lives of people lost at sea.”

While this was meant to highlight the hazards illegal Muslim migrants experience while crossing the Mediterranean, one wonders (but doubts) if Francis remembered the dozens of Christian migrants who were intentionally thrown overboard and drowned in the Mediterranean by their Muslim counterparts.

Obama avoided the crucifix almost as much as Dracula did...

And still does. I hated the pandering he was getting from liberals and the liberal media; it was just sickening to read where kids were singing praises and reading poems about him in school - just like Stalinist’s back in the day.

That’s ok because I ditched Francis for the true catholic faith of Eastern Orthodoxy and have never been happier with my choice of religion; the “smells and bells” are back baby!

Unless he changes his ways Frank is going to have a serious sad on Judgement Day. But, given his perfidious nature it is not impossible that he is knowingly serving the father of lies.

“Pope” Francis serves his master Lucifer.

“I’m sure their were worst popes, but Francis is the worst of my lifetime...”

I’m in my 70s, and he is without doubt the worst pope of my lifetime.

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18).

What is wrong with their religion?

No, I’m not asking about their theology, “ain’t nobody got time” to make that list. No, I’m just asking how they even have adherents any more.

They’re nuts.
