“You do realize that perverts occur in the priesthood at the same rate as the general population and any profession you can name, including yours?”

The big problem was not just the perverts, but the church hierarchy coverups, and moving the perverts from city to city.

Mr. Jorge Mario Bergoglio knows diddly squat about economics.

“Where is Sinead O’Connor when you need her?”

This question of yours should come up every time the pope cries about polar bears and the rainforest. Funny!

Actually the refugees are a result of ISLAMOFACIST TERRORISTS!!!!

But nobody wants to upset the ISLAMOFACISTs who aren’t TERRORISTS...yet....

and besides, somebody might call you Islamophobic.......

Are we really going to have to put up with another 400 years of this before somebody decides its OK to kick their butts again?

I’m a Catholic. This moron is a clueless tool of the Left.

NONE of that money came from the Vatican. It came from the American bishops’ selling off land and buildings—most of which were being used to SERVE THE POOR—i.e., schools, hospitals, churches.

The Catholic Church is not one giant corporation.

You keep repeating that as if it will make it true. When I toured the vatican a few years ago, the tour guide bragged that the vatican posessed over 25% of the worlds priceless art and treasure. Quite a collection! I missed the command from Christ telling the disciples to go forth and collect all the earthly treasure they could.

Yeah, the “reasoning” approaches the level of the stuff Kirk, Harry Mudd, and the Enterprise crew fed to “Norman” in “I, Mudd”.

Wow. How disconnected can you be? Unbelievable.

He should stick to theology.

I don't have much good to say about this pope, so I'm biting my tongue.

I don’t have a problem with the church.

I do have a problem with this Marxist Pope

Do not be put off too much by Trump’s bravado and flamboyance. In part, it seems to be a calculated act that has become part of their public persona, much like Patton, Churchill, and Teddy Roosevelt. Sean Hannity and others describe Trump when in private and off stage as gracious, soft-spoken, and even passive.

Frances forgets that the $billions that pour into the Catholic collection plates comes because of Capitalism and the love of money.

The last I heard if Sine-aid, she was discussing the joys of sodomy.

> [Translation: if everyone ELSE wouldjust give part of what they own we could make the whole planet EQUAL but don’t dare touch any of MY $$$] Spoke to a liberal this year who indicated just that. Big surprise.

Some of the stupidest liberal comments were on a FB page that said something like if you school lunches should be free for everyone click like, I made a comment to the effect that. "those lunches aren't free, tax dollars pay for them". You would think I had just killed a puppy in the middle of an SPCA pet adoption drive. I got attacked for stating the obvious yet here were all these idiots that thought the government gets their money by printing it, not from tax dollars. You just can't reason with idiots. You just can't. Liberalism really is a mental illness among truth and common sensed challenged chideen who just happen to be the age of what should be an adult.

The Pope may indeed by Catholic, but I think he is a Communist first and foremost. If this keeps up I think he will develop health problems.... Ahem.

“Capitalism allows the individual other options beyond that of being poor.”

Like that!

It hasn’t stopped the church from collecting, for nearly two millennia, priceless art, statuary and billions and billions of dollars for its organization, a private army and jet, so the Pope can run around spewing Marxist crap

In two weeks he's visiting The States. Wonder what he'll spew in those speeches.

OK, Mr. Pope, set an example. Maybe the Vatican needs to divest itself of some of its assets and then give the money away to the poor.
