Well,at least the Pope hasn’t *completely* repudiated Christianity.

Wait for the retraction.

Pope Francis came out last year in support of civil unions and not religious marriage. I don't think he's going to change on this.

No kidding. The previous pope had me considering becoming a Catholic for a brief moment. This guy has put me off the idea for the rest of my life, most likely.

Non denominational generic “Christian” is how I’ll continue to think of myself, I suppose.

The Pope just found out that the Vatican is nearly out of cash. This new position will be good for a couple of mil in donations.

Anyone who claims to be a Christian in any denomination should lose membership status for supporting what God through His word and common sense denounces. Of course, REPENTANCE is an option and the Redeemer still redeems.

“Watch Comrade Bergoglio walk this back within a week. Trust NOTHING coming from him.”

I tend to agree. With him, you never know what’s coming. This may simply be strategic, i.e., put out this statement to cover himself before taking some gigantic pro-Sodomite leap (like re-writing the parts of the catechism that the LGBT crowd doesn’t like).

Didn’t realize that The Vatican is a ‘hate group’.

Yet they bless the debauchery and will continue investing in Hollywood movies like Rocketman.
