Tax the Church, make them do a yearly audit.

Much more than Billions, likely close to a Trillion. All of the Treasures of the world from about 50AD to today, they suck it up and store it all. I wouldn’t doubt they have ancient maps, and much of the Library of Alexandria stored away.

Notre Dame can start by shutting down all its sports teams.

That’ll keep the Antichrist Pope’s flock of American sports fans safe from temptation...

He’s an absolute moron, he has zero idea what the hell he is talking about “universal wage”. Yeah, and where are people going to work when there are no jobs?

Oh well.

Catholics- you can’t believe how far they are from God.

As Kamala drops in the polls, expect Bergoglio to become more and more unhinged in his ramblings…

What the Pope is trying to say is that the poor need new Nike sport shoes and high speed streaming access to pornography.

It sounds ridiculous but they did a study of these poor countries, and they found that 80 or 90 percent of their internet bandwidth was taken up with pornography. Pakistan was the worst offender. African countries weren't far behind.

Pope Francis is basically a Marxist. But the real problem is in the cardinals that elect a new Pope. The pope is basically a function of the College of Cardinals. They are mostly socialist and or Marxist and thus elect the same for the Pope.

I am basically a Catholic. I still am basically a Catholic. I now go to a Baptist Church. I disagree with some of my new churches teachings but they are mostly in agreement with my Catholic faith.

My church left me. I did not leave my church. I hope it is returned to its former glory.

I still make the sign of the cross when driving past a catholic church and when our bible studies conclude. I am still Catholic but fear The Church is no more. I hope I am wrong.

When will the pope open the border of his country to allow people enter their territory? After all, like he loves to preach, that’s an act of love.
