Cheek turning time is over

Amos 6
3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall; . . .

[Kevin Curry]

Jeremiah 6:13-14 "For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace."

I am convinced the Pope is, at his core, a profoundly decent if misguided (on this issue) man.

Some of the snakes that surround and advise him at the Vatican are another story entirely.

The Pope does not even control his own church, which has been filled with pedophile priests. Is there any reason to believe that he is any more credible than they? What makes the Pope think he is qualified to tell anyone what they should do? He needs to tend to his business at hand.

Some quotes for the Pope:

"Once you've decided, don't delay. The best is the enemy of the good... a good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan next week." (Gen. George S. Patton Jr.)

" Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die." (Joe Louis said this)

"May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't. (Gen. George S. Patton Jr.)

And the greatest quote of them all....

No poor bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making other bastards die for their country.
-General George S. Patton

War is ugly, people die. That is a fact... If they would all accept Jesus into their hearts.. Problem solved...However, they choose Allah.
