I am so glad I left the catholic church when i did. I do not have to pretend that I somehow support this fool of a pope.
He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.
~Luke 22:36
Well, of course, I was being a bit facetious.
Of course, Jesus was a Jew. But the revealed Jewish religion came to an end at Jesus’ death.
The Jewish literature shows that the scarlet thread on the scapegoat never turned white a single time between the Crucifixion of Jesus and the destruction of the Temple.
I’m a Catholic, and I don’t pretend.
He’s unqualified and destructive.
He’s still the Pope, but that doesn’t force me to embarrass myself in any way.
Catholic doctrine does not give any NAME of the anti-Christ. E.g., “Barry Davis, born in Honolulu, August 4, 1961.”
Catholic doctrine is that there will be an individual man who will be “the” anti-Christ. The term “anti-Christ” is also applied, analogically, to persons or movements who fulfill the essential characteristics of anti-Christ. Islam is one of those movements.
The powers of anti-Christ—whether referring to THE anti-Christ or to his many forerunners, are not, properly speaking, “supernatural.” They are demonic. Demons, including Satan, are not supernatural beings. Anti-Christ will have preternatural, demonic powers that many will take for supernatural powers.
Only God and the powers and activities directly relating to God, are “supernatural” in the strict sense.
How will anti-Christ deceive so many people?
Easy. Look around. We have more than 100 million fellow citizens who can look at someone in public life who has fought tooth and nail to expand the killing of babies, and say: “He’s a Christian.”
Meh
From the lefty in Rome
This wolf in sheeps clothing is delusional
I think he inadvertently did us all a service with the encyclical. He put down in black-and-white the proof that his mind is a miasma.
I WANT WHAT POPE FRANCIS IS SMOKING!!!
on second thought, i’ll pass
:-)
Someone who is NOT Christian defining who is to be a Christian.
Good point. Who was that rock- maker? Lot’s of death by stoning. Maybe the rock- maker is not a Christian. It’s on the tip of my tongue. Maybe the pope knows Him. Then again looks unlikely.
More attacks directed at America. This pope, like his fellow Marxist in the White House, absolutely despises this country.
...anybody who owns a gun is not a Christian (sarc)...I see this one coming.
Thank God that this pretender of a pope wasn't around in those days.

Yes, otherwise we might all be speaking Muzzie right now. I don't know what language Muzzie is, but whatever it is, we would be speaking it. 😂
Obama and the pope have had several meetings together. If the pope was a true blood bought born again Christian obama would have nothing whatsoever to do with him. But obama knows he not and so he uses the pope to help him out with all his evil agendas. This pope reminds me of this verse “...he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon”
Yeah, there's been quite a lot of that going around in recent years.
Lets all refuse to call this moron a Pope.
