Objectively speaking, in all seriousness, the Pope is making himself look really foolish these days.

Condom use for gays now non-Christian names?

Really Pope?

Protestants spectacularly missing the point.

Again.

How thoroughly not surprising ...

My daughter is 40. When she was baptized, I gave her a name that is a variant of Joan. I also called her Susanne. He balked at using her first name and invoked Santa Susanne. The pope is only suggesting that we give our children names that identify them as Christians. Sort of like naming a girl Maria rather than Courtney.

He's talking to Catholic parents, so it's really not your business, since you aren't one. Objectively speaking, in all seriousness, that is.

Catholic parents should give kids names that reflect the faith, not names taken from popular entertainers or soap opera stars. Period. The Pope is absolutely right.

Not foolish as you say.

Just orthodox — can you handle that?
