As Obama said of the Constitution, the pope feels the Ten Commandments mostly say what thou shalt not do. They should be expanded to list all the things you can do.Income redistribution, gun grabbing, and mandating green energy being three of them.
The pope’s version of ‘hope and change’.
The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:2-17 NKJV)
1) - “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me.
2) - “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments.
3) - “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
4) - “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
5) - “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
6) - “You shall not murder.
7) - “You shall not commit adultery.
8) - “You shall not steal.
9) - “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10) - “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

Sorry, the way this upside down world has been going, nothing is surprising anymore.
Is it really that far from what is possible?
Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon, and for the rest of what’s left of the time Western Civilization has on earth.
Thank you for the satire tag!
Charlton Heston in: “The Ten Suggestions”
What was once satire is now Supreme Court rulings and canon law.
given the rest of the articles on said site Id say that thus can safely be said to be satire...although it’s a very very CLOSE call!!
“I think garbage like this should always be marked “satire” in the headline.”
That’s actually FR policy, enacted a few months ago.
Ooh! You’re in trouble now. Teacher gonna get you for that.
So is this satire or not? The way the pope has been acting I’d believe it first.
Satire is supposed to be at least somewhat funny. This is just juvenile,
Besides, Jesus revised the 10 Commandments/Laws of the Old Testament by telling us to love God with every fiber of our being and to love our neighbors as ourselves - for where there is love, there is no harm and that fulfills the intent of the prior Laws...
The sad part is how believable this would be in a year or two, with this Marxist demon in full jihad against Christianity.
This cannot be a serious article and the accusation cannot be accurate.
1 Tim 4:1-4: Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
Every Friday in school we always ate fish. It was actually quite good. Extra patties for a quarter. I never knew it was because the public school was in a predominately catholic district. All that time it was about their "doctrine?" Then one of their popes said it was ok to eat meat on Friday? Uh, ok.
Because of all his previous outrageous statements, Pope Francis would be a hard person to satire.
