Maybe because authentic roman catholicism is exactly what the reformation folks told us it was...
To: delchiante
Perhaps Francis needs the second coming of Martin Luther?

Maybe not — being as this pope is about as far from authentic Catholicism as any pope has ever been.

The state of Roman Catholic thought is... just... weird.
I firmly hold to an affirmation of the POWER of Christ to keep even the most oddball of those who have accepted His salvation saved. I do not have a problem there. He does it anywhere His name can be called upon. No human if’s, and’s, or but’s intervene! (Otherwise, we have a salvation theology of Christ plus. Even the Sola Fideists are sometimes theologizing Christ plus... i.e. plus a humanly held Sola Fide doctrine!)
But the THEOLOGY (we’re on a human level now) has gotten badly polluted.

RE: The Pope is an idiot and definitely not infallible.
The Pope is not speaking ex-cathedra, so yes, in this regard, he is infallible.
To: VideoDoctor
Would you be surprised if he brought a supply of “the good stuff” with him from South America?

The Pope is an idiot and definitely not infallible.He's just another man, like you and I. No better, no worse. I need Jesus. He needs Jesus, too.
I just wish all these people would focus on God instead of some old guy who lives in a gold mansion in Rome.

Amen and Amen. Im certainly not what I of as a scholar but I have read enough of the stinking koran and the hadiths to know how very wrong the pope is.
Perhaps he has some inside word on al qaidas plans to fly a plane or two into the vatican, and is trying to buy them off?

The Pope is a Jesuit. This religious order definitely leans left. But his statement that “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Quran are opposed to every form of violence” is not even close to the truth. It reminds me of the lies Obama tells to the American people. Maybe the uninformed voter can be persuaded by the lies, but not those who keep informed.
The Pope's propaganda seems to be similar. Anyone who has read up on Mohammed and the Koran knows that what he is saying is definitely not true, but those who haven't bothered to find out what Islam teaches might believe him.
The Pope is spreading propaganda about Islam and I find that disturbing. Priests in the Jesuit order are highly educated, so it's not like he doesn't know.

It was indeed an amazingly stupid thing for Pope Francis to say. Remember when in 2006 (the Regensberg speech) Pope Benedict asked, in an academic philosophical forum, whether Islamic doctrine had roots in the Logos (Reason) which would permit the common ground for rational discussion --- and the Islamosphere's response was rioting on 3 continents and 19 people dead, including an elderly nun who cared for orphans, who was shot in the back.
One small consolation is that this was an Apostolic Exhortation, which Cardinal Burke says contains no definitions of doctrine and is not a part of the papal magisterium.
Burke: "Exhortation Not Part of the Papal Magisterium" (Link)
Magdi Cristiano Allam, Robert Spencer, and Raymond Ibrahim should have a good, long talk with Pope Francis.

“This Pope is truly confused.”
How about this Pope is being deliberately duplicious regarding Islam, just as Obama.
Electing commies edidently is working no better for the College of Cardinals than it did in the Electoral College.

Okay, but then how does the authentic Catholic Church feel about homosexuality any where?
That is the one thing they both really agree on. Islam though rejects it as do all sane religions. It is just different between the two of them in that one of the tenets of Islam (and exposed by it's leaders is murder. Islam accepts and encourages it in so many facets of life.
So Pope, they are not nearly (thank God) as much alike as you may think.

The Pope might have an understanding of Christian doctrine, but he sure as hell doesn’t understand the Muslim religion.
To: FR_addict
The answer to that is that he sees that the Republican parry has openings for a leader lately, and...?
