SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — Pope Francis accused victims of Chile’s most notorious pedophile of slander Thursday, an astonishing end to a visit meant to help heal the wounds of a sex abuse scandal that has cost the Catholic Church its credibility in the country.

Francis said that until he sees proof that Bishop Juan Barros was complicit in covering up the sex crimes of the Rev. Fernando Karadimas, such accusations against Barros are “all calumny.”

“This guy appears to be working overtime trying to destroy the Catholic Church.”

The False Pope is the Church’s equivalent of Obola. Obola is an anti-American IslamoCommunist passionately devoted to destroying America. The False Pope is an anti-Christian communist, anti-biblical homosexual enabler, and Muslim enabler devoted to destroying the Church and Christianity. May God judge those two supremely evil individuals as He should.

You will hear very little about this from the MSM, I predict. Bergoglio is one of theirs. If BXVI or JPII had said anything like this, the hue and cry would be breathtaking.

I used to refer to him as Frankie the idiot pope, but now it’s going to be Frankie the lowlife scumbag pope.

Used to be “is the Pope Catholic?” was a humorous rejoinder.

I wonder if it’s not now a serious question.

BTW, I’m not, so I can’t really answer...

It’s still funny, but not ha-ha funny...

I am firmly for Jesus Christ and firmly against the Catholic church. Those that don’t see that falsehoods for what they are are disillusioned and are believing lies.

This pope is not the issue, he’s just more open. It’s the whole rotten Vatican, there’s nothing biblical about them, unless you’re talking about end times prophecy.

He did that long long ago. We’re just seeing it manifest more clearly now.

Real Catholics need to storm the Vatican gates and remove this evil pretender, flush him and scrape out the other sludge that are his familiars.

There are no degrees of sin. Sin is sin. Please stop defending this monster.

There have been some really bad popes in the history of the Catholic church, and Francis is one of the worst ever. I am Catholic, and am absolutely ashamed of the current pope.

Yes, revelation is clear.

She will deceive many with her power and wealth. It angers me that so many good people are so fooled.
