Francis’ New Book: Praises George Floyd Riots, Condemns COVID Protests

Francis’ New Book: Praises George Floyd Riots, Condemns COVID Protests

Is there a single issue on which Francis comes down on the Catholic side anymore?  If you want to be a conservative, a patriot, a traditionalist, a regular guy—just do the exact opposite of what this little, diminutive man does. (Yes, despite what you may have seen from the Vatican glamor shot photographer, Francis is actually just over 5’7”, which explains a lot.)

So, when it came to handling COVID, what did the great big man do? Closed down the churches and immediately started talking about the desperate need for a new worldwide post-COVID economy (read “GREAT RESET”).

And then he called up his biographer  to pitch his new book idea: How Pope Francis Responded to COVID Like a UN Toady.  Well, the actual title is even worse: Let Us Dream: A Path to a Better Future

Same thing. Reminds me of Dreams from our Fathers. What’s with these guys and their dreamy little worldview? They’re stuff always sounds like lyrics for an Everly Brothers’ song.

So now there's “Let us Dream”…or is it “Lettuce Dreams”?

Word Salad

And this new literary bombshell is packed with passive aggressive shots at sincere Catholics and God-fearing patriots, of course.  After all, it’s Francis!

Get a load of this one, aimed at anyone who’d like to be done with the COVID fearmongering like, yesterday:

Some groups protested, refusing to keep their distance, marching against travel restrictions – as if measures that governments must impose for the good of their people constitute some kind of political assault on autonomy or personal freedom.”

Maybe His Holiness would benefit from looking up the definition of freedom? 

But then there’s this bit of pompous pontificating against those evil Trump supporters as opposed to the virtuous BLM and Antifa thugs of which Francis and his friends can’t seem to get enough.

Here’s Francis parroting the hypocrisy:

You’ll never find such people protesting the death of George Floyd, or joining a demonstration because there are shantytowns where children lack water or education, or because there are whole families who have lost their income,” he said. “On such matters they would never protest; they are incapable of moving outside of their own little world of interests.”

Um… “because there are shantytowns where children lack water or education”?

Can this man be serious? 

He can’t believe that, because it’s an absurdity that the “noble poor” are rioting in the streets for the sake of the “shantytowns”. But if they’re allowed to continue, they’ll turn this country into the United Shantytowns of America. No water or education for ANYONE because in some places, somewhere, there are people who don’t have those things!

Righteous! I’d like to give Francis a woke, COVID-mandated elbow bump. Why? Because, safety first! Health Dictators, step in line behind Andy Cuomo (he’s at the Emmy Awards afterparty without his mask or socially distancing), because Francis is all in with the lockdown police:

“With some exceptions, governments have made great efforts to put the wellbeing of their people first, acting decisively to protect health and to save lives.”

God bless you, Francis. You can resign now. I’m not a big fan of papal resignation but, in your case, I think God would understand.

You can’t get forgiveness from a priest, only from Christ! I was a lapsed Catholic. Tried to rejoin so I could get my son baptistized. Was going to cost me over $500 to get my former marrage annuled by the church and another $300 to get my non-denominational marrage accepted by the church. Told the priest to drop dead and left. Next door there was a Methodist church. The only things I was ask is if we loved Jesus with all our hearts and soul and if we would support the church. Me and my wife said yes, Methodism aint perfect, but compared to the Catholic church and seeing what the church has evolved to, and an Anti-Christ as a pope? SMH!

The religious leader of Judas was Jesus Christ who founded the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.

Don’t follow in Judas’ footsteps.

Judas left the One, True Church for the same reason as yours: money.

I didn’t leave the Church. The Church left me.

I can’t fathom being a Catholic now with this jackass as head.

LOL! Let’s be frank, frannie the pope. Pope on a rope soap? Answers to some other authority. Wears robes like mofos and scotus. Doesn’t put his pants on one leg at a time like us earthlings, bitter clingers, deplorables, dog-faced pony soldiers. Virtue signaler supreme.

God loves dog, animals, plants, stuff we can’t see, humans (not subhuman “humans” masquerading as homo sapien sapiens) The word is he loves baseball too. In the big inning...

Where’s Tartarus?

Oh the Methodists have major problems.

A bit biased but having supported the American Family Assoc. for 20 years, with a Methodist pastor as it’s head, he brought out a lot of garbage going on with that denomination. As far as I could see they led most of the total corruption and sanctioning of sin and PCness in any American Church. Homos, women as pastors, Lilith Fair, Gaia, etc.

There are good catholics and bad catholics. There are individuals in any collective. Check them out. I’ve known many Catholics who were better suited than this pope.

Any collective can be burdened with bad representation. Check out American politicians.

The fact that he’s still the pope is a pretty fair indication that your Church supports and follows what he demands...Looks like your Church is leaving you and a few others behind...

“You’ll never find such people protesting the death of George Floyd...”

If you’re the peaceful protestors where are your Peace Signs? Hippies where’s the hippies?

God, guns, gold, grub, girls (not sniffer...the ones who grow up to be beautiful women...take your hand of the guns, girls JoeJoe). growth, golf, gambling (moderation/discipline), games.

9G better than 5G

WE are God's representatives on Earth.

2 Corinthians 5:20 - We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us.

St. Peter, the first pope denied Jesus Christ three times. None of the remaining apostles left the only Church that Christ established.

But you can choose to do otherwise. I’m not stopping you.
