I'm sure there is a trick definition of "faith and moral" that makes all of that OK.

you really can't discern between personal behavior and teaching from the chair of Peter????? pathetic....

 

Well by golly I was right!

What's in a mans heart is what comes out of his mouth.

Popes with such black and corrupt hearts should NEVER be allowed to represent a Church.

As they are accepted as Holy Sees no matter their personal lives, that is what is pathetic!

Christian churches would NEVER let someone that corrupt...murderers, adulters, etc etc...speak for their churches.

Read this, posted a few minutes ago but possibly not read by you:

Nothing should be accepted from Popes that engaged in those despicable actions.

Especially concerning morals!

They are corrupt to the bottoms of their hearts.

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.--Luke 6:45

But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.--Matthew 15:18

You brood of snakes! How could evil men like you speak what is good and right? For whatever is in your heart determines what you say.--Matthew 12:34

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?--Jeremiah 17:9

Those men should have NEVER spoken for God, or been allowed to continue on as "vicars" of Christ.

But *sigh* Catholic Tradition trudged along with dregs of the earth as leaders.

Interesting. When non-Catholic clergy or ministers get caught in immorality, they are absolutely castigated for it. Think Jim Bakker.

And recently another Catholic was absolutely shredding Martin Luther for being so immoral as to get married.

But when the inexcusably heinous and reprehensible conduct of high level Catholic clergy through the ages is addressed, well, nobody is perfect and we have to separate the man from his office.

Sounds a lot like the excuses liberals used for Bill Clinton, doesn’t it?

A man who does not have the moral integrity to control his own lust and behavior has no business being in any position of authority over others, especially in matters of faith and MORALS.

But I still don’t doubt it will be lost on Catholics. They’ve been too indoctrinated to see it objectively.

nothing concerning faith and morals is accepted from these men....they certainly did the day by day running of the Vatican, but none of them spoke with the authority "from the chair of Peter"....because Bill Clinton had a sexual relationship with Monica doesn't make him a bad president but points out that he is a human subject to human frailties.....there were plenty of other things that made him a below aaverage president!!
