TURIN, Italy, June 21 (Reuters) - People who manufacture weapons or invest in weapons industries are hypocrites if they call themselves Christian, Pope Francis said on Sunday.
Francis issued his toughest condemnation to date of the weapons industry at a rally of thousands of young people at the end of the first day of his trip to the Italian city of Turin.
"If you trust only men you have lost," he told the young people in a long, rambling talk about war, trust and politics after putting aside his prepared address.
"It makes me think of ... people, managers, businessmen who call themselves Christian and they manufacture weapons. That leads to a bit a distrust, doesn't it?" he said to applause.
He also criticised those who invest in weapons industries, saying "duplicity is the currency of today ... they say one thing and do another."

And popes who worship at the alter of Global Warming can’t either.
Hmmm, Didn’t a former Pope or two enlist soldiers into a Crusade or two ?!?
Wonder what would have happened without arms ?
Does this mean I should stop the automatic donations to the Church? If I am not a Christian, then why would they take my money?
I have a deep belief in God and that we are here on Earth to do good deeds and help our fellow man. But the respect for the Catholic church by this Irish Catholic has diminished considerably. Pedophile priests is an horrific legacy. The fact that Catholic public officials are open supporters in the advance of infanticide and are not excommunicated is disturbing. This one may be strike three.
But I thought he was asking for help in stopping the slaughter of Christians?
ISIS will not be impressed with “pretty please”.....
correct- not pinochet but the military junta which ruled late 70’s when people just vanished...
Does he have armed body guards?
and calling them hypocrites as well...
Next he’ll tell us self-defense is a mortal sin.
this man in the pope’s chair continues sadden me

This may be the final pope.
Thank God he was quite old when elected and should serve a short time.
[To all True Christians, the collapse of the denominational Church (including Roman Catholic Church) may actually be a Godsend. For decades the line between true faith and false faith have been getting blurred by the false “social gospel” preachers and teachers.]
Prophesy from the grave coming to pass...

Proverbs 20:10, for example, also comes to mind.

Hmmmm, If history is correct, the Catholic Church at one time had its own army, ran all the brothels, sold indulgences, hid and protected its pedophiles, and there was a long list of other skank.
He’s gone from a humble Pope to a socialist idiot
He is a flawed man elected by other flawed men.
soetoro, clinton and other corrupt, evil poltical hacks have not driven me to discard the Constitution.
Luke 22:3621st Century King James Version (KJ21)
36 Then said He unto them, “But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it and likewise his pack; and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.
the pope is usama bin ladin
