The Pope is in the wrong profession. He should have been a hipster ecologist drinking latte in the Amazon, fighting the capitalists, making the world safe for socialism. Now they’ve put him on the cross where he has to recite in a dead old language and take the world back to a dead old creed given by dead old Church Fathers. He doesn’t like it, nosiree... If he had just listened to his mother and been an electrician, at least it can be done in an eco friendly way! With windmills and solar panels. Now plastic is up there with the Devil temping man, and man becomes like plastic — never to be gotten away with. No siree, no good is man, a sinful creature.
These indigenous peoples live and DIE that way, subject to famine & diseases. History shows that their young will, given the opportunity, add modern conveniences and even join the modern world. Pope Francis repeats the myth of the 'Nobel Savage', uncorrupted by civilization and thus presenting humanity's innate goodness(!)
Matthew 23
Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, 2 saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat: 3 all therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. 4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 6 and love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, 7 and greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. 8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
NOPE.
Actually, the Church never believed in a flat earth. The Church had, in fact, taught a spherical earth as far back as it had existed due to Europe’s adoption of Aristotle’s cosmology.
The myth that people in the Middle Ages thought the Earth is flat dates from the 17th century as a slander by Protestants against Catholic teaching. It was later used by atheists to impugn fundamentalists.
That’s not your job pope!
Pope goes first, no planes, no cars. Make rule for all of Vatican City. No air conditioner. No heat. Put solar panels on everything.
I wish there was more evidence of this. I think the Wikileaks emails show there was an effort going on behind the scenes but I haven’t been able to find good documentation on it.
Why should I listen to what the Antichrist says?!?
The only Catholics hanging on his word are the old, decrepit liberals. But don't let the facts get in the way of a good jab.
Please, Lord, get this evil imposter out of there.
But that would require bishops with a spine, and I don;t think we have any. Whatsoever king may reign, sir, I’ll be Bishop of Bray, sir.
And to save the world from Armageddon, I ask the Catholic Church to abandon this satanic minion pope.
No, he got in trouble for persisting in teaching an unproven theory as a scientific fact -- a big no no at the time.
Galileo's punishment? House arrest in a luxury apartment where he was free to continue his studies.
“Pope Francis claims climate in state of ‘emergency’, asks world to ‘abandon’ fossil fuels “
You first, Popey ...
You first. All catholic churches all over the world need to immediately unhook from the electric utility and put in solar and wind. The Vatican too. And instruct all catholics to do the same with homes.
What is wrong with the Jesuits these days? Yes, Francis is a Jesuit.
Idiot Pope is trying to start a massive die off !
Galileo was tried and convicted of “heresy” by the Inquisition ...

Always on some target, always missing the mark. What happened to the Gospel, your highness potato?
