Pope Francis released a video message advocating more left-wing politics on Saturday, in the latest attempt by the Vatican to reassure the world that Catholicism is on the side of social justice. The pope praised deceased felon George Floyd as a “Good Samaritan,” and provided a moral endorsement of violent BLM rioters.
“Do you know what comes to mind now when, together with popular movements, I think of the Good Samaritan?” the Pope declared. “Do you know what comes to mind? The protests over the death of George Floyd. It is clear that this type of reaction against social, racial or macho injustice can be manipulated or exploited by political machinations or whatever, but the main thing is that, in that protest against this death, there was the Collective Samaritan who is no fool!”
“This movement did not pass by on the other side of the road when it saw the injury to human dignity caused by an abuse of power,” the Catholic figurehead continued. “The popular movements are not only social poets but also collective Samaritans.”
The pope went on to repeatedly invoke the term “social justice,” and proclaimed that “In my experience, when people, men and women, have suffered injustice, inequality, abuse of power, deprivations, and xenophobia in their own flesh – in my experience, I can see that they understand much better what others are experiencing and are able to help them realistically to open up paths of hope. How important it is that your voice be heard, represented in all the places where decisions are made. Offer your voice in a collaborative spirit; speak with moral certainty of what must be done.”

A commie and an idiot...oh, wait...that’s redundant.
The pope is a commie dope.
Guarantee this pope supports “women’s health.” Meaning abortion. He is just trying to figure out how to sell it to the smelly deploreables.
A guy I knew in high school (way back) told me he supported nearly everything about Pope Frankie, except women in the priesthood.
How about declaring this pope anathema?

[Makes sense he’s lobbying for worldwide totalitarian government.]
Maybe that’s not an accident...
I wonder how the pregnant woman he threatened to shoot, or the workers at the Subway that he threatened to stab to death, feel about the Popes’ comments.
Understood—but “weak” is a description that just enables evil.
You need a pastor who is at war with evil, not apologizing for it.
This Pope is a two bit hack shill bent on destroying the Catholic Church !
This Poop is a freaking loon. I noticed some long distance friends of mine have ceased talking about the Catholic Church they attended and started referring to a Baptist church down the street
I suppose there have been worse popes in history. But he’s up there on the bad popes’ list.
Sorry, Catholics. I call upon Harry Truman’s description of a prominent poll, “the son-of-a-bitch is no good.”
would you like to see the pope on the end of a rope?
do you think he’s a fool?

how many alter boys does one molest in order to qualify for “pope”?
Poor headline. Not the comparison.
He states that BLM and rioters are Good Samaritans, not Floyd.
Sure it’s still idiotic, but get it right lest you be accused of idiocy as well.
The Borgias.
Yes, there have been worse.
Sky Guy is currently watching The Clown-World Pandemic miniseries. Next up is the “Global Thermonuclear War, Sudden Global Warming Special Feature.”
The riots of the summer of 2020 were nothing less than insurrection.
The FBI slept through the interstate criminal conspiracy. If it had been the KKK in the 1920s, the FBI would have been all over it. Hundreds and arrests and hundreds of convictions. Instead we arrest and hold without bail flag waiving tourists who entered the Capitol through the wrong door.
What a foolish thing to say!
Of course, we don’t know what he has done or ordered to be done behind the scenes.
