Ok, so is it absolutely true that there is no absolute truth?
Ping
Total heretic - Manifest and material. Anti-pope. In between the lines - The Catholic Church is not the One, Holy, Catholic (universal) and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ. No, because according to Popey Frankey, even God is full of crap. In fact, Popey Frankie is convinced of one absolute for sure: that he is God - just ask him.
Jesus Christ: “Peter. dost thou lovest me?”
Popey Frankey: “Hell, no Lord! But, hey, I do love myself - narcissistic Marxist jackass that I am!”
“Sometimes I think Francis is on weed.”
No, he IS a weed - a poisonous weed that needs to be ripped out by the roots, figuratively speaking. Recall the parable of the cockle sowed among the good seed.
Papal Infallibility is exceedingly and purposely narrow in its definition:
Non-Catholics often confuse the pope’s gift of ‘infallibility’ with ‘impeccability’. They think the Catholic Church is claiming her Popes are sinless or that the Pope is claiming inspiration from God for every pronouncement he makes. This is not the case. In fact, infallibility is attached to his office, not his person. It is a protective gift, not a creative one introducing new revelation. Peter Kreeft observes that the Church should not be mistaken for a political body because it is an organic body and no organic body can be a democracy. It must have a head. Christ gave the Church a head.
What is the gift of infallibility?
The dogma of infallibility was formally proclaimed at the First Vatican Council in 1870. There are several requirements for a dogmatic, papal infallible pronouncement: (1) The pronouncement must be made by the lawful successor to Peter. (2) The subject matter must be in the area of faith and morals. (3) The pope must be speaking ex cathedra, that is from the very seat and office of Peter. In this way he must be specifically intending to proclaim a doctrine, binding the entire Church to its assent. If one or more of these elements is missing, there is no infallible pronouncement. Most “examples” of papal “errors” emerge when critics ignore the necessity of these three points. (Madrid, pp. 135-136, Pope Fiction)

At least “fundamentalists” read the word of God. This Francis clown rarely mentions the word of God in his frontal assault with Liberation Theology.
There is absolute truth and absolute falsehoods. I bet the word fundamentalist rolls off his tongue like a cuss word. Fundys are the ones the liberation theologians hate most. Too bad.
We’er here. We’re not queer. Get used to it. : )
Feeling bad for good Catholics, you all got an awful pope. Truth is the Word of God, not any man. Certainly not that man.
Ain't you either - so what's your point?
That's about it.
The arrogance of this "man." Vengeance and wrath belongs to the Lord, but I must confess that I really wish God would smack Jorge, but good.
The very fact that this commie spews generic pap about the death cult that is islam, rather than calling his faithful to another Crusade, speaks volumes.
He is a false Pope.
He is in the pocket of the elites. Everything he says supports their agenda.
I miss JP2.
We’real not talking here about Complete and Entire Absolute Truth. ONLY God knows that. But He HAS revealed SOME Absolute Truths to us.
