Of course they are! Just as the Old Testament Kings chosen by God were human and eventually betrayed the Lord God…I have been reading the OT and find much disappointment in the human failty, especially David and Solomon. So very sad.

Says the guy who lives in the kind of *poverty* most of us could only dream of.

It smells like I stepped in something. Nope! It’s just the Pope.

The best thing that could happen to the Catholic Church is if Franky dies soon. He’s a heretic of the worst kind.

The Pope is using the image of his fugal lifestyle as a means to prop himself up in self-righteous self-importance.

Matthew 23

“The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat.
3
So you must obey them and do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.
4
They tie up heavy loads and put them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
5
“Everything they do is done for men to see: They make their phylacteries [1] wide and the tassels on their garments long;
6
they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues;
7
they love to be greeted in the marketplaces and to have men call them `Rabbi.’
8
“But you are not to be called `Rabbi,’ for you have only one Master and you are all brothers.”

I’ll be satisfied if and when he takes a dirt nap!
He makes me wanna puke!
Some kind of cabal saw to it, he replaced the true Pope!
Absolutely disgusting human being, let alone appointed head of the Catholic faithful!

I’m not Catholic, but doesn’t the Vatican get most of their funds from the USA? Isn’t he killing the golden goose with his remarks?

The Pope has only spoken infallible on two occasions in all of Papal history,.

As Catholics, we are taught to help the least among us to help end poverty, hunger and deprivation, but the primary victims of the environmentalists’ crusade against fossil fuels will be those in the poorest nations of Africa and Asia — deprived of cheap and reliable power from coal and natural gas.

yes. The high price of diesel and the huge increase in the price of fertilizer is making it hard for our rice farm here in the Philippines to make a profit.

The stupid bishops officially oppose investment in Fossil Fuel... which means that they are ignoring the huge natural gas fields off the coast of Palawan within the EEZ of the Philippines that China has been trying to steal.

Yes, but IMHO this particular Pope is the product of coordinated efforts by the global left to neutralize the anti-Marxist role played by the papacy, and JPII in particular, in bringing an end to the USSR. When the USSR fell, and so many thought this was the beginning of the end for Marxism / Communism in the world, the global left went into battle mode.

They analyzed all the reasons the US and the West prevailed, and among them was religious faith and belief in the sanctity of individual human life as God's creation. They decided one way to counter this was to try to promote the ascendency of clerics with Marxist / Communist sympathies and anti-West / anti-US sentiments into positions of influence in the Church leadership.

Another reason the US and the West prevailed was the economic strength of the US, a product of Capitalism. So the global left decided to use Capitalism as a tool (e.g. China's 'state-sponsored Capitalism' competing in the world market) in order to neutralize the US and the West's economic advantages over Marxism / Communism. The political leadership of the West incorrectly thought that the controlled tolerance of nascent Capitalism and private ownership in Communist nations (most notably China) would lead to a further deterioration of Communist totalitarian power. Instead, it gave these Marxist / Communist nations greater economic power with which to push forward their agenda and tighten their totalitarian grip.

If you want to see some ruinated planet, go down to Eagle Pass and environs and see what the Catholic NGOs, with the pope's blessing have encouraged the invading pagans to do to the pristine Texas countryside and desert.

Then follow them to their destination cities and see the filth and destruction they wreak on them.

Then have a look at the rapes, drug and child and female trafficking and drunk driving vehicular homicides that they do as illegals on innocent Americans, Italians, and other Europeans where they end up.

And remember, this is all with his organized support and repeated encouragement.

PS Frank is not the legitimate pope. The whole Benedict resignation was fishy and invalid.

Along with his science illiteracy, the Holy Father lacks an understanding of economics. Improvements in lifestyle have paralleled improvements in stewardship.
