“What the Pope needs to be fighting is corruption and establishing the rule of law in these despotic countries that routinely rob its citizens while at the same time blame capitalism and the West. “
Yeah, but he’s part of the problem in that he seems to be a Marxist himself! If I were a Catholic, I’d tell him to go to Hell as part of my letter of resignation.
Perhaps he is senile.
I don’t mean any offense to Freepers who are RC, but I’m really glad I’m not. What the Pope says is irrelevant, except for his influence on others.
Rite on! I grew up in Houston without a/c. We had no idea how miserable we were.
Wow, I didn’t see this. Insane. This Pope is unabashedly communist. More and more open about it by the day.
Maybe the heat in west Texas is dry, but the east half of the state is humid and muggy during the summer.
This pope is so horrible, he needs to go and as soon as possible. He is the worst of the worst. How anyone can make excuses for this jerk pope is beyond me.
I agree!
Anyhow it was 90 degrees there the whole time. It was frikking hot with many places not having AC. I guaran-damn-tee the Pope's digs are kept very comfortable.
Is kissing the Koran, or tolerating those bishops that do a trivial, or temporal matter, or the sign of a grave problem?
The Popemobile’s engine better be air-cooled. Anti-freeze provides the same benefit for engines as A/C does for humans.
I was just telling my boys yesterday about my G-GF's house. He lived next door and had a window unit...and that was it. He had it in his smallest bedroom and that was his "summer" room where he slept. He had a room that was for spring and fall...and had one for winter that had no outside windows...so it stayed warmer. No central AC...just one window unit for a bedroom that was about 10x9...and it cooled that thing down ice cold.
He also had a big attic fan and another huge window fan mounted in the window that would blow air out in the kitchen.
We spent most nights outside...watching satellites pass over (granted there were a lot fewer of them then than now...and I would chase lightning bugs.
I miss that old man....and those good times.
Excellent point which is the rub with Marxists which insist that the problem with Marxism isn't Marxism, it's the Marxists. If only the right Marxist was in charge would Marxism work. Who better than the Pope to finally be the moral authority to realize the Marxist dream.
Good point!
My father spent a lot of time in Houston on business when I was a kid. Upon his return he once told me “don’t move there unless you enjoy the feeling of wet underwear”.
LOL...and I would add "wet underwear at 6:30 in the morning." I hate that I break a sweat during the 50' walk from my house to my car....:)
Is there anything the pope hasn’t opined on yet?

I’m still waiting for him to tell us who he personally prefers to be the President of the United States in 2016.

That book kissing business was disputed and went round and round here in FR’s. MSM later reported it wasn’t the Koran. What Francis was kissing I believe was an ancient compilation of prayers and rituals used in Eastern rites by an early saint. The whole episode was scrutinized including the book’s cover design which had nothing to do with Islam.
Yea we have grave problem it’s with an Argentine socialist playing Pope.
So no bishops or cardinals have been showing reverence to the Koran, but if they were, that would be a sign of a grave problem. (If left to stand unchecked by the Holy See.)
Is that your position?
