A close friend of mine stopped going to church b/c of the pontiff’s radical Marxism. He’s had enough of it.

I’m disturbed that it’s still that high...

That will certainly hurt his chances of reelection.

Besides your insistence on lazy sloppy postings, you now want to take a mainstream news story and make it a Catholic Caucus?

Why? What is wrong with you?

I wouldn’t think you could be a spiritual leader and a political/environmental activist at the same time. The typical socialist doesn’t even believe there is a spiritual side to human nature.

Apparently 70% of my fellow Catholics are Communists.

What’s his rating among people who consider themselves Christian?

Karl Marx HATED religion.

He called it ‘the opiate of the masses’.

I’m sure he’s laughing in his grave at the Pope being his biggest cheerleader.

Francis is the inevitable result about what happens when the fashion statement of electing the first non-European Pope trumps the common sense of an adequate background investigation.

Sort of like the American sheeple did with BO, except that I'd expect the College of Cardinals to be a little less swayed by fashion trends.

If they would've wanted to make a real fashion statement, they would've picked one of the Cardinals from Africa or Asia.

Amazing how the world has changed. Now a pope has a favorability rating? Two views. Ten years ago, you never heard of negative favorability for a pope, that would have been a ludicrous as a favorability rating for God. Second, that this pope has stooped to the lowest level of politics (global warming, socialism...) is disgraceful and he has therefore earned a “favorability rating”...anything a liberal touches...dies. Catholics beware (this is what happened to the Episcopal church).

Because he’s marxist first, then pope, then Catholic.

God bless Pope Francis. I often pray for him and Pope Benedict.

I’m not surprised with the numbers; Pope Francis is confusing to me. Our Lady of Akita, however, has asked us during these troublesome times to pray for the pope and all religious:

“As I told you, if men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests.” Our Lady of Akita, 10-13-73

The Vatican is looking to smonge money off future world governance (global warming) the same way Catholic Charities has found a revenue steam in local governments and school districts here in the U.S. (Yes, I have personal experience, seen how CatholicCharities operates.)

You can’t argue with that revenue stream and the Pope’s positions are putting that business model in play.
