Italy (Ammoland.com) Pope Francis spoke with a group of young people at a rally of thousands at the end of the first day of his trip to the Italian city of Turin.
Francis started by attacking the Right to Keep and Bear Arms as well as accusing the allies during World War Two of being complicit in the killing of Jews, Christians and homosexuals.
Francis issued his toughest condemnation to date of the weapons industry, saying.
“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 criticized those who invest in weapons industries (gun owners), saying “duplicity is the currency of today … they say one thing and do another.”
Francis also built on comments he has made in the past about events during the first and second world wars.
He spoke of the “tragedy of the Shoah,” using the Hebrew term for the Holocaust.
“The great powers had the pictures of the railway lines that brought the trains to the concentration camps like Auschwitz to kill Jews, Christians, homosexuals, everybody. Why didn’t they bomb (the railway lines)?”
It is surely an upside down world when the representative of G* on earth disparages the right to self defense and accuses the Greatest Generation of being complicit in Hitler’s genocide and the destruction of Europe and Russia.
Ceremonially, yes.
But those guys are apparently well equipped bad asses when they need to be.
Yes, he’s an ass................
Having this president and Pope at the same time is a divine sign of God ratcheting up of his much deserved wrath on us.
A Peronista and a dumbbell marxist.
I did, but do the carry Uzis?................
Looks like Il Papa is the foretold AntiChrist. It’s official.
@#$*($&@#*(&$@*($&Q)!!!!
And I mean it! Pope Dope is a Catholic Version (only VAGUELY) of Obama. My guess is George Soros bought his election and Benedict’s departure by bribing the College of Cardinals.
NWO servant, but servant of God.
This pope has been a HUGE disappointment to me, I found a small orthodox Catholic Church there us a STARK DIFFERENCE!!!! The catholic teachings had Almost pushed me out of my ONLY known faith completely, all the the SOCIAL JUSTICE teachings and democrat voting OVER true belief in life was just nagging me !!! This pope had me missing mass EVERY Sunday I just couldn’t take it anymore!! Someone on this site suggested I find an Orthodox Church I did and am VERY happy now, this pope is just unbareable!!!!
Isaiah 3 New International Version (NIV)
Judgment on Jerusalem and Judah
4
“I will make mere youths their officials;
children will rule over them.”
No to both questions.
I wonder what it’s like to be dead wrong every time one opens their mouth.
Has he read Ecclesiastes 3?
“A time for war and a time for peace.”
One bad apple does not affect my faith.
There have been bad Popes before that the Catholic Church survived.
Meaningless.
The Pope is not the arbiter of who is a Christian.
Thanking Martin Luther for his courage and God-given inspiration every time I read something from this jumped-up preacher.
Since you brought it up, we can thank him for the gay-centric Episcopalian and UCC churches as well...
The leaders of the Catholic church are clearly leftist. The things they say and do are simple political, nothing spiritual. A corrupt political organization, that’s all.
This actually occurred last year - June of 2015.
And if you are a gun dealer who is selling weapons to ISIS and Al-Qaeda?
let him that has no sword sell his mantle and buy one
Luke 22:36
The Philistines did not want Israel to make weapons
1 Sam 13:19
beat ploughshares into swords and pruning hooks into spears
Joel 3:10
If this is the false prophet, I want my money back. I'm pretty sure Satan can come up with someone more persuasive than a person who condemns arms manufacturers on the one hand, and regrets that bombs weren't dropped on Auschwitz on the other.
IOW, when the real false prophet comes, you won't be laughing at him and shaking your head at his contradictions.
