EWTN Anchor Complains About Political ‘Edge’ of Pope’s White House Address

... when the Pope started talking about “sustainable development” he lost ....

[massgopguy]

The only real sustainable development is called Capitalism!

[xsmommy]

are you Catholic? The media ADORES him, as to many leftwing non-catholics. Shepherd Smith cannot praise him highly enough. Why would the abortion lobby freak out, or even the devil? he will say nothing to call them out.

[MeshugeMikey]

America needs some Spiritual Climate change

My Prayer would be that we see it and SOON!

[Arthur McGowan]

The Pope is pushing the Global Warming Hoax.

This means:

1) The Pope is abusing his office, because the temperature of the earth is not part of the Catholic Faith;

2) The Pope is a LIAR, because Global Warming is not happening. (The Pope has a DUTY not to believe hoaxes, so he has no right to plead [sometime in the future] that he was deceived.)

Catholics, for the good of the Church, have the duty to do all they can to make everyone aware that this Pope is an abuser of his office and his fame, and is a liar.

[Arthur McGowan]

According to St. Robert Bellarmine—YES.

Unfortunately, the duty falls to the same group of Communist homosexuals who elected Bergoglio in the first place.

[xsmommy]

Did you see this in the Washington Post? i was astounded to see that criticism of him there!

[MeshugeMikey]

Thanks!

[Arthur McGowan]

Pope Benedict resigned. In his words, “in such a way that the See will be vacant.” I.e., that there would be no Pope.

He could not have expressed himself more clearly.

Yes, I do miss Pope Paul II. Yesterday my husband brought him up as being the antithesis of the revolutionary as pope and steeped in Latin American progressivism.

The liberation theologist from Peru, Gustavo Gutiérrez, a Peruvian theologian and Dominican priest, once considered by the Vatican as a dangerous Marxist firebrand was recently a special guest speaker at the Vatican, the understanding which is that Bergoglio accepts him.

Just to remind everyone what this brand of South American communism is like, here is a definition:

>> liberation theology – a distinctly Latin American movement – preached that it was not enough for the church to simply empathise and care for the poor. Instead, believers said, the church needed to be a vehicle to push for fundamental political and structural changes that would eradicate poverty, even – some believed – if it meant supporting armed struggle against oppressors.

Now this is what Pope John Paul did:

>>During that visit Ernesto Cardenal, a priest and minister in the Sandinista government, knelt to kiss his hand. John Paul withdrew it, wagged his finger in Cardenal’s face, and told him, “You must straighten out your position with the church.”

And now, we have a liberation theologist as the vicar of Christ. Such a terrible shame.

[Arthur McGowan]

Perhaps you don’t recognize what a MONSTROUS evil the Global Warming Hoax really is. To endorse the Global Warming Hoax is to endorse global Communist totalitarian government, because the whole purpose of the Global Warming Hoax is to justify population control (abortion, abortion, abortion), massive carbon taxes, draconian rationing of travel, fuel, food, living space, number of children, etc., etc., etc.

[Lazamataz]

Dear Lord,

Call your servant home.

[don-o]

Fine. But, can you multitask?

Men ought always to pray and not to faint.

[marshmallow]

My point of reference is always Mother Teresa's appearance at the National Prayer Breakfast in 1994, where in front of the assembled dignataries, she launched into a lecture about the sanctity of life in the womb. She talked of the “unborn child” in the womb of Elizabeth—John—leapt with joy, heralding the arrival of Christ as Mary neared Elizabeth. At the end of her talk, the room erupted...all except the embarassed Bill and Hillary Clinton and Al and Tipper Gore who remained seated and did not applaud.

I doubt we'll see anything similar from this Pope. He's not into delivering lectures....unless it's to wag his finger at us "rosary counters". He makes nice with the hucksters of the zeitgeist and basks in their adulation.

This is a dream come true for Pelosi, Biden and other CINOs in public life as the shmooze-fest with +Francis will embolden them and strengthen their conviction that they and not mean old troglodytes like Card. Burke, are the real face of Catholicism.

It not only had a political edge, it had political sides and a political top and a political bottom and it was filled to the brim with politics.

[The_Media_never_lie]

can a pope be recalled?

guess he could be excommunicated.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Actually, no.

[Obadiah]

I thought the Catholic church was flat-lining under Francis. I guess we got a heartbeat in the Catholic church.

[Mrs. Don-o]

"I’m not catholic but your pope needs to be impeached or whatever you do to get rid of him, I think it’s usually murder. He needs to stay out of politics and do his catholic thing."

I completely agree with you. But he can't be impeached. All we can ask for is what we want for ourselves, a deepening ongoing conversion to the Lord Jesus Christ and/or a blessed and repentant death.

I would settle for what I call the Gift of Zechariah (Luke 1:20), i.e. a miraculous and sudden onset of laryngitis.

[Mrs. Don-o]

(Fervently) YES!!
