The writer of the article included a link (within the below paragraph, which was the fifth paragraph, and only the sixth entire sentence within the article, which I'll reproduce here including the link to http://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/111515.cfm);
Commenting on Sunday's Scripture readings, the Pope said that Jesus' preaching about the end of the world contains "apocalyptic elements, like war, famine, and cosmic catastrophes."
But you say;
Really? The writer of the article is "ignorant"?
The by-line at Breitbart attributes authorship (identity of the "reporter") as being THOMAS D. WILLIAMS PhD. That was the amazon link...
Now for the author's own web page;

Yeah, this "reporter's" (Thomas Williams) level and amount of ignorance about [Roman] Catholicism is surpassed only by what amounts of hydrogen and helium there is in the entire universe!
This proves that Roman Catholicism, and the present individual who many identify as being "pope" are continually maligned, misunderstood, misquoted & falsely accused.
It's all a giant plot, and FR is in on it too! Freeper Biggirl must be one of those CINO's (if 'Catholic' at all) since she's so obviously an undercover agent provocateur!
She was the original poster of this thread. What more evidence is required? How do you know she's not Alex Murphy, in disguise? Just because she did not engage in the same criminal italicizing and article quoting that AM was famous for, does not mean that the freeper known as Biggirl is not one of AM's many handles here.
He's tricky that way, and is probably still a forum moderator!!! (no matter what JimRob says)
And if you think I'm mocking you who here calls himself "St_Thomas_Aquinas" --- you would be correct.
Ignorant reporter?
Shooting from the lip --- you just blew your own foots off.
Maybe we should all just call you 'Stumpy' from here on out.
Would that be ok?
Drop the meme, Stumpy.
It simply is not a one-size-fit's-all 'killer application' for being an everyday/every situation support apparatus for smug Catholic's persecution complexes.
I love FR! That was wonderful! Have a great day!
