Like a Hostess Zinger. It would take more than a little white to cover all that red.  The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC The Dhimocrats love America like ticks love a hound. | |||

Why, he is a man not a deity? And even if he was...why While it may offend you we are free (Para permitting, it's his house) to speak our minds. We say the same things about politicians on this forum...he is a politician...with a cool hat  Until they open Vatican City to the unwashed hordes he is just another Soros kiss ass. | |||

Some years ago a high ranking member of the Catholic church was interviewed on TV, where he categorically stated that the "church" had never changed. Excerpted for the book "Revelation Unveiled" here is a list of the changes made within the church since AD 300. AD 300 Prayers for the dead AD 300 Making the sign of the cross AD 375 Worship of saints and angels AD 394 Mass first instituted AD 431 Worship of Mary began AD 500 Priests began dressing differently than lay people AD 526 Extreme unction AD 593 Doctrine of purgatory introduced AD 600 Worship services conducted in Latin AD 600 Prayers directed to Mary AD 607 Boniface III made first pope AD 709 Kissing the pope’s foot AD 786 Worship of images and relics AD 850 Use of “holy water” began AD 995 Canonization of dead saints AD 998 Fasting on Fridays and during lent AD 1079 Celibacy of the priesthood AD 1090 Prayer beads AD 1184 The Inquisition AD 1190 The sale of indulgences AD 1215 Transubstantiation AD 1220 Adoration of the wafer (Host) AD 1229 Bible forbidden to lay people AD 1414 Cup forbidden to people at communion AD 1439 Doctrine of purgatory decreed AD 1439 Doctrine of seven sacraments affirmed AD 1508 The Ave Maria approved AD 1534 The Jesuit order founded AD 1545 Tradition granted equal authority with the Bible AD 1546 Apocryphal books put into the Bible AD 1854 Immaculate conception of Mary AD 1864 Syllabus of errors proclaimed AD 1870 Infallibility of pope declared AD 1930 Public schools condemned AD 1950 Assumption of virgin Mary AD 1965 Mary proclaimed mother of the church If one is interested in the "End Times", may I suggest the book entitled "Revelation Unveiled", by Tim Lahaye.

If the above "events" were taken from his book, Tim Lahaye is perhaps as ignorant of the Catholic faith as many of the folks posting in this thread. As such, I have no interest whatsoever in reading his work as it is clear that it is a hit peace on Catholicism. And, as has been stated, the Pope is not infallible...the Church is. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

So I can now migrate into the Vatican, drink the wine, raid the refrigerator, pick a room, party all night etc. and MY RIGHTS trump any security concern and they must support and tolerate me. Great, I just may become Catholic. | |||

Islamic State group militants in the Philippines have released a propaganda video desecrating Christian statues and threatening Pope Francis that they'll come to Rome, as they tear in half photos of him and his predecessor Pope Benedict XVI. “Remember this, you kuffar, we will be in Rome, we will be in Rome, inshallah,” a supposed terrorist named “Abu Jindal” says to the camera. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2...ropaganda-video.html MAGA NRA Gun Owners of America | |||

First and foremost. Peter will keep hearing about the "denying" thing until he loses the keys to the Golden Gate due to old age. Basically never. Best thing about him is that the position of "Rock" never truly went to his head. Though his wife, Perpetua, nagged him until he died. Further, I did mean JPI. He seemed to have died from an accidental heart attack after trying to correct things in the Vatican. A thing about Popes. None (except perhaps in olden times) rose to the position straight from priesthood. Just as CEOs don't rise to that position from being a simple clerk. On their way there, they have to become necessarily immersed into one of the greatest bureaucracies ever known. Unerringly, they manage to become one. The process can be as convoluted and eclectic as the Vatican's holdings. No simple clerk can manage that. If it is true, as rumour has it, that those holdings included an interest in CZ (the one with the Holy Trigger and Dependability), small wonder that people think, including the Pope himself, that everything he touches has an imprimatur of "infallibility'. The statement of Francis about refugees has that imprimatur. It is worded so that the conundrum has an aura of doctrine and faith. I do not think that Francis made that up by mistake. He believes it, without seemingly a second thought, like those accustomed of shooting stuff through their mouths. Thing is, he can't help it. Theology of liberation is too ingrained in him. *************************** Knowing more by accident than on purpose. | |||

Good thing this isn't a Catholic theocracy, so the Pope's words mean fuckall. Why not liquidate some of that treasure y'all got? I mean, if "migrant's rights" trump national security, then certainly they trump all your shiny things in the basement. How many houses could you build all those folks? Build them a whole city, Migrantville, it'll be great, endless piña coladas. In any case, I want to know what the opinion of the highest authority is, the Great Queen Spider.

Sadly, the position of the "church" in 1870 declared the POPE to be infallible. As far as being a "hit piece", maybe you should try reading it. It is not a hit piece on anybody, it is a study of the upcoming "end times", or perhaps better said a clarification/explanation of the Biblical book of Revelation.

He's sharing his "opinion" (I strongly doubt he sees it as merely his opinion) with the expectation that good Catholics around the world take his message to heart as if decreed by God, and make themselves busy with working towards the Pope's goals. I'm with Fenris on this one, this Pope is a clown and actively promoting socialism under the guise of Catholicism. He makes me sick. ______________________________________________ Carthago delenda est | |||

Elk, the Pope is a man and as fallible as the rest of us, if not more. The Catholic Church's position is when the Pope is speaking on a matter of faith and morals, and representing the entire church as a whole (explicitly), that his statement is infallible. This has happened exactly three times in 2000 years. | |||

"Rome’s false religion too often gives a false security that keeps people from seeking salvation by faith. Rome is also dangerous because some of her doctrines are pseudo-Christian. For example, she believes properly about the personal deity of Christ but errs in adding Babylonian mysticism in many forms and salvation by works” (Revelation Unveiled, p. 269). I rest my case. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

When citing to authority, it is useful if that authority is... well... authoritative. The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC The Dhimocrats love America like ticks love a hound. | |||
