Jesus said to turn the other cheek.

[NFHale]

Chuckle...

Get to used it, Frankie.

We got an American in the White House this time around.

#NotMyPope...

[Da Coyote]

The Vatican has been slapping itself in the face ever since Pope Che took over.

[chris37]

A slap?

Consider it a thumb in your eye, Poop Hat.

Took rime off from buggering altar boys to tell us that, did he?

I have reported your uncalled for abuse to the moderator...

Fine. What rule did I break?

[Mrs. Don-o]

I’m not a defender of Pope Francis and his Progressive Circus -— but that comment was uncalled-for.

[petercooper]

Is it me, or shouldn’t their #1 priority be to stop letting in head-chopping muzzies???

[jospehm20]

This Pope sucks. He deserves a good slap in the face.

[drSteve78]

Time, then, for him to turn the other cheek. Repeat.

[protest1]

The PC rule. Everything now is labeled abuse and bigotry and is to be reported.

[Hugin]

“that comment was uncalled-for.”

So was decades of systematically covering up child rape. Many of those same people who did so are running the corrupt Vatican today. Yet they lecture us on morality. Bah!

[fella]

Actually it’s more of a fart in the general direction of the false pope (the real Pope is in a forced retirement).

[protest1]

I have to defend his comment as this Popes support for child molesting Priests is well documented so it is a fair comment harsh though it may seem.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Actually, it's not the same outfit. The Pontifical Academy of Sciences was (until Pope Francis basically gutted it by replacing all the keys advisors with leftists) a really outstanding Science & Ethics panel for the Church. They have (or had) nothing to be ashamed of.

You're thinking, I suggest, of the Office of the Inquisition, whose procedures against Galileo were illegal by their own charter. They had no business privileging Ptolemaic cosmogony and opposing heliocentrism, nor had they done so in the case of Copernicus 80 years previously.

I was an academic turf war more hahn a theological dispute..

And it was settled a long time ago.

Not quite so useful to the Narrative now, I suppose.

"The mission of the Catholic Church is the salvation of souls," Hichborn told Church Militant, "not the regulation of commerce, the passage of treaties, or the promotion of a neo-pagan cult regarding the environment. If Bp. Sorondo cared as much for souls as he seems to care for trees, perhaps the Church wouldn't be facing the crisis of faith She now faces."

[TChad]

Vatican official: “This is a direct affront to our religion! Gaia was VERY offended!”

[Cboldt]

Much appreciate the factual historical summary. It’s sad when generally upstanding institutions fall.

[Ammo Republic 15]

How about a kick in the butt to go along with slap in the face!

[Mrs. Don-o]

There are so many huge and horrendous things to criticize Pope Frnncis and Cardinals Sorondo and Parolin for, in terms of pastoral malpractice and illegitimate politicking. That being so, making a boilerplate allusion to somebody somewhrer buggering altar boys not only misses the point, but makes you look like someone who cannot make basic distinctions.
