“Pobama” LOL - excellent.

I’ve been saying that this Pope is doing to the Catholic church what Obama is doing to the US.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool.... This idiot opens his mouth so often it’s a wonder he isn’t in the loony bin.

Un-freakin believable. The man does not know when to shut up. Global Warming is a lie to advance the Evil of Socialism. If this idiot Pope doesn’t understand that, he needs to retire.


This may be the last Pope? Saw this advertised on WND.

It’s a global redistribution of wealth scheme. Of course our socialist global Pope would be for that.

After all it is a religion to the global warming crowd. So I guess the Pope decided to get involved with this “new” religion.

"An effective fight against global warming will be possible only with a collective and responsible answer" that overcomes one-sided or special interests and is "free from political and economic influence," [Pope Francis] said.

Gallileo was not "incarcerated" for his cosmological theories, but rather for insisting upon presenting those (unproven) theories as fact. His punishment consisted of being restricted to a luxury apartment with all his equipment so he could continue his studies. ("Nobody expects the luxury apartment!)"

To: Jeff Chandler

Galileo was found “vehemently suspect of heresy”, namely of having held the opinions that the Sun lies motionless at the centre of the universe, that the Earth is not at its centre and moves, and that one may hold and defend an opinion as probable after it has been declared contrary to Holy Scripture. He was required to “abjure, curse and detest” those opinions.[67]
He was sentenced to formal imprisonment at the pleasure of the Inquisition.[68] On the following day this was commuted to house arrest, which he remained under for the rest of his life.
His offending Dialogue was banned; and in an action not announced at the trial, publication of any of his works was forbidden, including any he might write in the future.[69]

An excerpt from Wikipedia vs Arthur Koestler? I’ll take Koestler, who tells the whole story.
.
The myth of Catholic opposition to science, in this case as well as in the contrived “flat earth” calumny, is a latter-day protestant/atheist fabication.

Wikipedia vs Arthur Koestler

Hardly. It a source which the reader can examine for himself and to which in some instances he can actually contribute or even correct which purports to set forth the actual words in some instances and the actual findings in other instances of the parties vs. Jeff Chandler who offers no citation beyond the two covers of a book of his version of what the author said about the real meaning of the overall transaction.

But I am not clear whether you are defending the Pope of the 17th century was the Pope of the 21st century and upon what grounds. There is no more reason for me or any other sentinent person to accept the authority of the Pope of the 21st century on this issue than there is for us to accept the authority of a Pope in the 17th century on this issue.

That is the point of my original post and it stands because it stands uncontradicted.
