Call me when Pope Commie tears down the Vatican walls, dismisses all the Vatican Swiss guards, and eliminates all his personal armed security.

Let’s see if I get this straight. All moral people disarm. I wonder what he thinks the immoral people would do then? Is he a 3rd-grader?

So the Pope is now counseling suicide? I thought he was supposed to be against that? Has he disarmed the guards at the Vatican, yet?

Pope’s guards aren’t all ceremonial. State-of-the-art weapons and training. They’re Swiss Army and train and use latest model Sig rifles and HK submachine guns. And I bet heavier stuff. Shouldn’t he just trust Jesus?

A Pope who can't tell the difference between Evil and Good Warriors.

“Doesn’t that guy have armed guards?”

And they’re VERY good.

The Halberds





Are Just For Show. They have more modern weapons, but they don't go as well with the uniform.

Is he calling God the Father immoral?

Was it immoral for God to order Saul to kill every last Amalikite and their animals?

The Pope is walking on some shaky ground.
