French Jesuits publish anti-Catholic cartoons in tribute to Charlie Hebdo

We are Charlie" How not to be indignant at the murder committed in cold blood? The attack that killed 12 people in the editorial office of Charlie Hebdo fills us with horror. As a result of a newspaper and its options, it is freedom of expression that is subject to terrorism. Unanimous reactions that have arisen, from right and left, among believers as from unbelievers, call out not to give in to fear and to defend a plural society.

We have decided to put online [on our site] a few cartoons of Charlie Hebdo that relate to Catholicism.

Self-hatred to the point of obsequiousness and cowardice is evil.

This is disgusting. The church has actually forwarded disgusting anti-Christian sentiment. Last days?

They can post a thousand anti-Catholic cartoons and they won’t get so much as someone even throwing a punch, but leave it to liberals to still insist “every religion has extremists just like Islam”.

I get their point.

If only to show that we're not going to burn down anything or machine-gun anybody just because we find them tacky and tasteless.

Which Charlie Hebdo most assuredly is - but they're equal opportunity tacky and tasteless, so I just can't get that offended. As my dear mom used to say, "Consider the source."

They’re not doing it to be daring or to promote freedom of speech and thought - they’re doing it because the Jesuits AGREE with the anti-Catholic cartoons. They aren’t fooling anyone.

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Bergoglio worked briefly as a chemical technician and nightclub bouncer before beginning seminary studies.[3] He was ordained a Catholic priest in 1969 and from 1973 to 1979 was Argentina’s Provincial Superior of the Society of Jesus. He became the Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 1998 and was created a cardinal in 2001 by Pope John Paul II.

He's a Jesuit not a Franciscan.

Which reminds me of the old joke. A fellow asked a Franciscan if it was o.k. to pray a novena for a new BMW. Franciscan asked, "What's a BMW?"

Asked a Jesuit the same question, he asked, "What's a novena?"

“Isn’t this pope a Jesuit?”

As opposed to that pope?

The Jesuit order should have been eliminated and purged long ago. Unfortunately we have a Jesuit anti-pope who is an enemy of the Church. Hopefully not for long.
