"FReeper Catholics, how can you stand this??"

" He also might be the last Pope."

He couldn't qualify as a pimple on the butt of a real Pope like John Paul II.

"Pope Francis is an evil man."

He is a Marxist. you don't here him criticize The Cuban and Venezuelan Marxist regimes. He just takes cheap shots at the United States.

Mr. Pope Francis. Tear Down your walls.

Knowing of some scientists who don’t believe in man-caused climate change I would be inclined to believe them over the Pope.

“So he is only infallible when he is in that special pope state of infallibility. Otherwise he is not infallible. Isn’t that convenient.
So he is infallible when:
A) He wants to be.

or
B) When he isn’t being particularly damaging.”

A Pope is only infallible when speaking on important matters of church doctrine in an ex Cathedra Proclamation.

To simplify it for you, a Pope is only infallible when the Holy Spirit is protecting his beloved church from a grevious error by a Pope.

Doesn't that kind of raise a few obvious questions?
