....likening the latest child abuse scandal to a biblical story where Jesus is driven out of town by a pack of wild dogs.
*************
Where is that story in the Bible? Must be in one of the Catholic apocryphal books.

There are no deuterocanonical books belonging to the New Testament. There are apocryphal “gospels”, but they are not of apostolic origin and have never been recognized by the Catholic Church as authentic. I have no clue where this wild dogs business comes from.

There is no such story in my versions of the Bible.

“Where is that story in the Bible?”

Why are people asking about the Bible and Jesus? Neither have the slightest bit of relevance to any story about this so called Pope.

Yeah. No such story as such, but a careful reading all the way to the end, of the source article reveals that he is taking liberty with Luke 4:29. He calls the ones who “thrust him out of the city” dogs, not people, since they were just shouting and not listening to reason.

NOT defending this guy. Just had to figure out what in the world he was talking about.
