“Genghis Khan was a mass murderer, but at least he wasn’t an American Catholic Reactionary!”
Rorate Caeli ^ | September 2, 2023 | New Catholic

“Genghis Khan was a mass murderer, but at least he wasn’t an American Catholic Reactionary!”

No wars of conquest in all of history killed as many people as those of Genghis Khan: an estimated 40 million dead, an amount that wouldn’t be reached (in absolute numbers) until the Second World War, though never surpassed in proportion to the global population at the time.


So, what did Francis do? Well, he praised Genghis Khan, of course, in his visit to Mongolia. He says he was a promoter of “religious freedom” (he forgot to say, of those who were tolerated), though, of course, not exactly the freedom of the millions slaughtered, starved, or left to die. 


So, a “despot” can be an anti-Catholic freak, such as the bloodiest tsars, and he (or she) will be praised by Francis; he can be the greatest mass murderer in history, and he’ll also be praised by Francis. 


But there is one unpardonable crime: being a believing American Catholic. That is a no-no.

Wait... did he say “Jingus Khan” or “Genghis Khan”?

Pope Francis has nothing to fear from long dead mass murderers. He does have much to fear though from faithful American Catholics who oppose Pope Francis due to his heretical views and thuggish ways.

G. Khan. When you need a village to be wiped off the face of the earth he’s your man.

Anti-pope Francis may be, but he is presently in St. Peter’s seat and not a corpse floating down the Tiber.

Pray for your enemies. My prayer for Pope Francis: Please God, help him be the leader and the man that You want him to be.

He says he was a promoter of “religious freedom”

I guess having your head stuck on a stake on the Eurasian steppe kind of frees you of religion.
