I just don’t know
What Direction
We are Headed,
But it Ain’t good.
And we compare you to a communist.
There are many who don’t, and tend to follow the rules of the Vatican, rather than the bible.
I’ve met some catholics I consider Christian though.
F**k you Frankie.
This Pope is an abomination and should be kicked out and flocked for his blasphemy.
Sounds like frank is fixin’ to join the 2020 democrat clown car.
I had to go through the experience of leaving the church of my youth when they turned their back on scripture. I have been greatly rewarded because each Sunday I am fed by the true word of God.
“They are one and the same.”
No, they are not. You are mistaken. The Church does not have the power to save, only Christ, and He alone can save.
“I disovered that Ugo Boncompagni/Pope Gregory XIII was my 12 Great-Grandfather, and Pope Paul III, born Alessandro Farnese was my 14 Great-Grandfather.”
What happened to the priest’s vow of celibacy? How could those you mentioned have fathered children if that be the case? Hmmm?
bump
We’ve had enough of this POS on Free Republic.
Screw that $hithead.
Please, no more stories about this A-hole.
Paolo Farnese
Ranuccio Farnese
Costanza Farnese
Lucrezia Farnese
I was shocked to find any Italian in my family to begin with since my mother was born in Canada, and my father in Holland. The Italian line started on my mother's side in 1655 in New York City, when Pietro Caesaro Alberti married Judeth Jan Menjie who had been born in Amsterdam, Holland. Unbeknownst to my mother, there was Dutch on that side too. Pietro Albert's mother was a Medici. And eventually as you go back, there's de Medici's, Orsini's, and Farnese's.
Ancestry.com just updated my DNA breakdown to: 59% England, Wales, and Northwestern Europe; 35% Germanic Empire (had no idea of that); 2% Sweden (no idea of that); 2% Ireland and Scotland; and 2% Norway (no idea of that either). My mother wouldn't believe it if she was alive today. She thought she was French Canadian, and that's it. She always told me we didn't have any relatives on her side of the family.
I'd always thought I was a first-generation American, but her side of the family came here, some on the Mayflower, and others from England and other European countries, and settled in New Amsterdam...Kinderhook, the Albany/Troy area and Dutchess County, NY...in the 1600's. My 10th great-grandfather on her side is Peter Minuet, once Governor of New Netherland, and the guy who bought Manhattan Island from the Indians.
I only started all of this in June, and am not close to even being done. Of course once you get past the actual DNA lines that link you to your ancestors, it's anybody's guess if the information you're getting is factual, because there's no real way to verify it. After the late 1600 and mid 1700 lines, the DNA peters out.
Rome has had wake up calls in the past to leave their false dogmas and embrace Christianity.
Seems their still stuck in their error.
The Nazis were socialists who turned fascist once they achieved power.
Yes. They are. You are mistaken. The Church is the Body of Christ which He established for the salvation of souls.
He’s an idjit. And a false Dope, I mean, Pope. Benedict was forced out and he probably still has the office. I wish Jesus would return and save the world from this imposter, and from the baby killing, Trump hating Demoncrats.
I don’t see any mass exodus happening - he knows that Catholics can be just as hard-core left wing as anyone else and those who aren’t will hold onto the anchor rope until they rest on the bottom.
He’s gone full AOC on us.
It is obvious that Frankie hasn’t consulted with the real pope, Georg Ratzinger about Nazis.
