When will his followers walk away from the whole deception and follow Jesus Christ?
Please, Lord, open their eyes to the Truth!
Just. Wow.
The worst thing about this Pope being the way he is, it’s that it had completely negated the old adage “is the pope Catholic”?
I used the line quite a bit until this guy came around. Not it just doesn’t mean anything.
I feel sorry for all those Catholics out there, Embarrassment by ones leader is never fun.
They were hard working, honest taxpayers who had to accommodate a bunch of foreigners who marched in and after like they owned the place.
Some reasons why this is the worst analogy ever:
1. Joseph and Mary were not immigrants. They didn’t cross any national borders. Their travel was wholly within the Roman Empire.
2. Joseph had a job, a livelihood in the town where he lived.
3. Joseph had no inclination to go anywhere, they were only making the voyage because they was ordered to do so.
3. They were not moving their residence, just visiting.
4. They were making a 2-way return trip, no a 1-way trip.
5. Their travel was to comply with the law, not break the law.
6. Their objective was to pay taxes, not evade those taxes.
7. I’m going to guess that precisely none of our present-day pregnant immigrants were immaculately conceived, pretty sure the circumstances are otherwise.
8. Mary and Joseph did not demand any government benefits or handouts, or assert some fake rights to this that or the other thing.
In fact, Mary and Joseph present pretty well the exact opposite of the current immigrant situation. If anything the Pope should be using Mary and Joseph as an object lesson to teach would-be immigrants how it OUGHT to be done.
Shame on the Pope for subverting the true Biblical message and misleading so many people.
he doesn't seem to know the plan of salvation in my estimation... Very sad to be leading many to the slaughter.
So...the Pope doesn’t read the Bible, or the Pope doesn’t read the news.
The parallel totally escapes me.
Yeah, like the ultimate ruling power of the day TOLD them that they HAD to travel to Bethlehem?
I seriously doubt that the is reprobate pope has ever cracked a Bible for himself.
