Pope derides Biden's abortion views, Catholic self-identity as 'incoherence'
Fox via MSN ^

Posted on 07/14/2022 7:13:43 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

Pope Francis questioned President Biden's conscience on Tuesday in an interview during which he described the commander-in-chief's religious identity and views on abortion as incoherent.

"A month after conception, the DNA of the fetus is already there and the organs are aligned. There is human life," the pontiff said in the interview with Spanish-language outlet Univision.

Asked about Biden — a self-professed "devout Catholic" who supports blanket legalization of abortion on the federal level — the pope dismissed the president as incomprehensible.

I suspect a lot of questions from the laity have finally filtered up to Rome, although it took being put on the spot by Univision.
While the article accurately describes that the bishops have authority in their diocese, Frankie is sort of passing the buck.
Maybe the reporters can follow up by interviewing Cardinal Gregory.

This is the same question and answer that was reported the other day but the point of view and understanding of the conversation is 180 degrees in the opposite direction. The other day the Pope said in the same Q & A basically it was up to Biden conscience and his pastor. Basically, Pope Francis said its not his job.

Looks like the pope finally read the polls.

The Poope is an asshole. He wouldn’t meet with Trump but he rolled out the red carpet for braindead.

> A slap on the wrist. <

At most. The Catholic Church has a lot of problems. We all know that. But at least they drew an line in the sand. Something was either right or wrong. Period.

I guess those days are gone. Now the pope uses all sorts of weasel words to avoid offending liberals. So what’s next, Francis? Perhaps you can call Biden’s pro-abortion views “unclear” or “puzzling”.

Sounds like the “Pope” is still having self awareness issues.

Matthew 7:4
Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye?

The pope’s not acknowledging this until 50 years after Biden in public office is incoherent with Catholicism. I don’t care if 50% of Catholics here vote the pro abortion candidate. Catholicism is NOT a democracy

Nancy lives in a diocese where the bishop actually has some cojones.

It's not. One difference is that in Pelosi's diocese, she was publicly urged to mend her ways prior to being denied communion.
Her taking communion was a big middle finger. I don't think that will work too well when she ends up "downstairs".

Her taking communion in Rome after she was denied in her diocese was the big middle finger.

Frankie and RCINC seeing a drop in Sunday plate revenue due to pushing false teachings ?

RCINC is the oldest most profitable multinational corporation on the planet.

They plead poverty but can afford 600-800$/hr. mouthpieces to smear/slander individuals assaulted and abused by their employees (priests) during depositions and trials

This pope constantly sends contrary messages. One week, Pelosi receives communion at the Vatican despite being banned from doing so in her own diocese, the next week the pope is criticizing Biden’s views on abortion.
