“Pope Francis really inspires a lot of people to want to fight,”

Indeed he does.

Jihadists.

And this Pope has re-affirmed why I don't buy into organized religion. Nobody knows what's behind this amazing Universe.

That said, I also don't buy into physicist's theory of the singular hyper-heated super-dense sized basketball just coming coming our of nowhere and then the Big Bang.

How many Protestants have lost faith in the Pope and, as I do, view him simply as another leftist for the world to deal with? No human being should be considered as God by anyone. Some people are wise, or intelligent, or gifted intellectually or artistically. Some people have social gifts, athletic gifts and healing gifts through medicine and science. But, only God is God and to endow a man or woman with His powers is just fantasy. To study religion and to explain the tenets of that to others is a great thing, such as being a pastor or priest but each individual must communicate with God in a personal way. The Pope has no more power with God than any of you do.

Francis has successfully alienated Catholics already.
