“They are either fools or think we are fools.”

It’s both, I think.

“the Catholic Church will fall further into the cesspool of obscurity”

Many of us expect the Church to shrink, but we hope and pray that it will be the better for that.

That said, I don’t think I would necessarily characterize obscurity as a cesspool.

Pope needs to stay in the Vatican and mind his own business.

Did he deliver this same message to Mexico to reprimand them for being harsh towards illegal immigrants who come to Mexico?

I suspect this pope would have one too, leading straight to Vatican “showers.”

If this Pope ain’t the false prophet, or antichrist, or at least the last Pope, count Earth lucky.

The Catholic Church has forgotten the cardinal rule...Politics & Religion do not mix!!! In a poll taken this week 70% of the Americn public could care less about the Pope being here, sucking up to America destroyer, POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama. When the Pope departs the USA for his flight back to Rome....nothing will have changed here in the USA, and the Catholic church has only hurt itself, once again!!!

YEP, all of the hypocrites in our government standing and applauding the speech of a religious leader. It just proves that it is not religion they hate but politics.

So I guess he's going to just tear down his sixty plus foot walls surrounding his country and open all the gates to take in a hundred thousand for his fair share, right?

I don't think so either.

I’ve have been told they are mega-rich. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but they could pay for a lot of refugees.
