Putin: ‘Pope Francis Is Not A Man Of God’
http://globalnews365.com ^ | August 4, 2017 | Nick Snowden

President Putin has slammed Pope Francis for “pushing a political ideology instead of running a church”, and warned that the leader of the Catholic Church “is not a man of God.”

“Pope Francis is using his platform to push a dangerous far-left political ideology on vulnerable people around the world, people who trust him because of his position,” Putin said.

He dreams of a world government and a global communist system of repression.

“As we have seen before in communist states, this system is not compatible with Christianity.”

“If you look at what he (the Pope) says it’s clear that he is not a man of God. At least not the Christian God. Not the God of the Bible,” Putin said at the Naval Cathedral of St. Nicholas in Kronstadt.

global central bank and financial authority, and more recently he said “Americans need to be ruled by a world government as soon as possible for their own good.”

Pope Francis’s idea that Americans would be better off under a world government doesn’t stop there. The radical leftist pontiff also went on record stating that Europe should become one country under one government.

He is also on record calling for a China-style one child policy for Western nations, as well as telling a congregation in Rome that having a personal relationship with Jesus is “dangerous and harmful.”

While Putin is a practicing Christian, he is not a Roman Catholic, and the pope is not his leader. According to his recent statements, President Putin does not even consider Pope Francis to be Christian.

The Russian president is rarely openly critical of foreign leaders, instead preferring to use diplomacy to win people over to his side. However notorious globalists including George Soros, Jacob Rothschild and Bill Gates have received tongue lashings before, and now Pope Francis has joined their company.

Pope Francis is trying to lay the groundwork for a global communist government. President Putin is wise to his ruse and has called him out on it. It’s time for more world leaders to tell the pope to stay in his own lane.

This is unusual, to experience a 180-degree worldwide flip in one's lifetime.

But:

I hate living in 'interesting times'.

People can try to keep putting Putin into the KGB and can keep calling him a commie, dictator or whatever.

But it’s kinda like when people here attempt to stop Mark Levin, Mike Lee, etc from being Trump supporters today.

Winning converts is the best kind of winning.

My biggest knock against Putin lately is the shirtless photo ops. He and Madonna should both keep there clothes on for the good of humanity.

Like I said, Putin likes to play the game. He’s good at trolling as he’s learned the trade from President Trump.

He’s trolling again. He’s not great Christian with the many he kills. He’s not done killing whether it’s in Russia, Ukraine or Syria.

This guy is at the core the same East German KGB officer who called the downfall of the Soviet Union a tragedy.

The same Soviet system that killed tens of millions in the name of communism.
Some people have the attention span and memories of fleas. No offense toward you intended.

Putin knows well how to play the game. People getting carried away talking about him like he’s some sort of reborn Christian prophet. He’s not. Putin is a tyrant.

While that much is true -- Putin is a tyrant -- you must acknowledge two things.

First: Tyrants do not need to consider how they appear. They are tyrants. If Putin embraces Christianity (and there are posts on this thread that he does), he does so willingly and with no thought to 'polls' or 'worldwide opinion'.

And second: A little background on the psyche of the Russian people is in order here. I consider myself a student of Russia, even speaking the language conversationally. I have visited Russia for an extended period, once. They are not like Americans, who's national character was based upon rebellion against authority and a yearning for freedom. In Russia, the people have been beaten by rifle butts for so many centuries, they do not even know what to DO with freedom. They want a strongman leader. They couldn't cope with the early 90's, when there was no such man. They prefer order to personal freedom.

It’s not that it’s forgotten. Some simply speculate about the possibility of a change in his perspective and goals. None of us know for sure, save Putin and God.

It’s not so new, Putin gave Obama a tongue lashing about his communist tendencies early in his tenure. It’s like he’s saying, you people have no idea of the diabolical forces you’re messing about with, I do, so cut it out.

If Trump and Putin were talking about Jesus, the Savior, it is regarded as a “high crime” by the Democrat Left. We don’t need no steenkeen Mueller investigation into the President’s business dealings for the past 30 years.

A true statement of fact from a world leader??? What is the world coming to! Maybe he’s immune to the men in black’s goon squad.

So true. Its clear to me the US Government may well be the most dangerous threat to world stability on the threat board. There came a time in Germany when they realized they were the problem.

Trumps election was our country’s admission of that realization for us.

Look at what is ensuing. We’ll be lucky to live through this.
