You are correct.
The Pope Smokes Dope?
No, but you just showed that you are humble enough to become Catholic!!! :)
Right.
Sure.
Uh-huh.
OK.
Bye
Allow me to rephrase my thought, if I may.
Francis worships Gaia and Baal. It seems to me he cares less for the Gospel of Christ and more for the Gospel of Greta and Klaus. His lack of blazing urgency regarding abortion is alarming.
His admission that he sees Christ’s mission as Communist, and thus implies He came to offer material and economic salvation to this suffering Humanity, is, to me, a horror.
I do believe he will regret this, when his Time comes.
Bigly do I miss John Paul II.
Lighten up, Francis.
Here’s the truth.
If you look at the Gospel in a purely sociological way, and see it as “communist”, Francis, you merely prove that you flunked “Reading for Comprehension”. Big red ‘F’, Francis.
Because.
The majority of the parables Our Lord spoke are clear-cut examples of entrepreneurial capitalism.
Francis is NOT the CHURCH! Also he is not responsible for where my soul goes for ETERNITY....that’s MY JOB!
Communists have not taken some of the Catholic values.
They demand that all follow their dictates including evil ones.
Jesus says follow my example, but gives us free will to choose right or wrong.
We can choose to feed the poor, etc. but governments and dictators should not force it. Popes can encourage us to freely help others, but should not promote immoral systems of wealth redistribution or allow charities that they control to commit fraud or waste.
Hey Francis, “polarization” Do Catholics believe and accept God’s Truth? Or do they follow the ways of the world that are promoted by some Bishops, priests and other Catholic leaders?
Yes, the Catholic faith accepts sinners, but not the sin or sinful ways as we are all sinners and made in the image of God.
Why are you assisting polarization with your leadership and comments?
Whoops. This one.
