No need for God or Jesus when you have the Pope!

He (the pope) Saw, He (the pope) Conquered hearts

I’m glad Jesus conquered my heart instead of an over-glorified old man.

INDEED.

Now, now. How could Jesus possibly have conquered your heart

. . . except through Mary . . .

Didn’t you know Jesus was a weak, incompetent force apart from Mary?

/satire to the max, Lord, Please excuse.

The two are not exclusive, since the one is the Lord and the other the successor of the one chosen by the Lord to head his apostolic college.

Beautiful, you completely ignored "It is the New Evangelization of the Church in the United Kingdom and then, through her, the unfolding of a new missionary age dedicated to re-Christianizing the European continent. "

The Pope is working to re-Christianise the UK. You and your grouping of 10 people can do what you like.

The Church will keep preaching God's word and brining people to Christ --> your grouping of 10 people can still believe it's the chosen "elite"

“Finally, I would like to say a word to you, my dear young Catholics of Scotland. I urge you to lead lives worthy of our Lord (cf. Eph 4:1) and of yourselves. There are many temptations placed before you every day – drugs, money, sex, pornography, alcohol – which the world tells you will bring you happiness, yet these things are destructive and divisive.

There is only one thing which lasts: the love of Jesus Christ personally for each one of you. Search for him, know him and love him, and he will set you free from slavery to the glittering but superficial existence frequently proposed by today’s society. Put aside what is worthless and learn of your own dignity as children of God. In today’s Gospel, Jesus asks us to pray for vocations: I pray that many of you will know and love Jesus Christ and, through that encounter, will dedicate yourselves completely to God, especially those of you who are called to the priesthood and religious life. This is the challenge the Lord gives to you today: the Church now belongs to you”

Oh if only the Pope had said something like that! Oh wait, he did.

That must have been after you Freepmailed me.

Or maybe once you're "saved" and your ticket's punched, anything goes. Kinda like the Muslims. Lies and murder are permitted if you're dealing with an "infidel".
