He speaks the words of the serpent.

““Bitterly” complaining that “the world is evil; sin reigns” is “not Christian,” the Holy Father asserted.

“We are called, instead, to have a view similar to that of God, who discerns what is good and persistently seeks it, sees it and nurtures it,” the pope preached. ”

He’s right there but then he goes on to poison it.

“And this is a mistaken way of seeing things … secularization demands that we reflect on the changes in society that have influenced the way in which people think about and organize their lives,” he continued. “If we consider this aspect of the question, we come to realize that what is in crisis is not the faith, but some of the forms and ways in which we present it.”

Well, do they think The Bible is True?

Romans 1, and into Romans 2 covers this.

So Paul, the author of Romans is ‘not Cristian’?

He poisoned it right out of the gate with his assumption that anyone who recognizes that facts and states it is automatically “bitterly complaining”.

The subtle deception is presuming to know the heart of the person making the comment and attributing attitude towards it, and then condemning someone for something they have not even done.
