because he's a leftist socialist commie , the Jesuits are the intelligence arm of the catholics, very political and new world order leftists, he will probably bring on ghey priests marrying each other and abortions galore to kill off the masses, intelligence just means: how can we kill off humanity
For some the cause is poor choices. For others, it's lack of work, low wages, or both.
I find it ironic that people who hate everything about religion all of a sudden become huge fans because the Pope throws out some leftist propaganda.
FTR I've NEVER been a fan of the Catholic church. I wasn't raised in it...never had any affiliation with it...but can without a doubt tell you I've never been a fan. If anything the Catholic church has been responsible for most of the worst things ever associated with Christianity.
So I, unlike yourself, have been consistent. But then again I've seen nothing in your posts that makes me think you've ever done or espoused anything 'admirable'.
We'll see. I don't really think it's a fair criticism to reject the Pope's good moves - as tractor does - or to attack those who post a quote from the Pope - as tractor did - just because Pope Frank hasn't succeeded in totally curing all the Church's ills.
Thank God Arb isn't racist. No sir, not Arb.......He's just a forward thinking 'merican. Jeeeebus Arb.....even this is below what one might expect from you.
Agreed, poor parenting...birthing kids they can't pay for, instilling an entitlement attitude versus valuing education
I'm certainly not rejecting the Pope's good moves. He's drawing me closer to Catholicism.
Exactly. My "faith" isn't in jeopardy but I like the new guy. So far. He's really not that radical - it just that the Church has been led by fascists for so long that he's a refreshing change.
except he is the very definition of a fascist, Italian fascism, socialism, leftism, third world country communism, except that
Exactly, I never mentioned race but the wacko libs when faced with something they can't defend pull the R card thinking it's the end all solution to end a discussion.
Not bad, but he didn't mention tho poor, the welfare state, the military/industrial complex...all problems
I wonder about some of the posters but I didn't wonder on to this thread. I did kind of wander on to it.
Now, that was well-played. I always find it interesting when the sub-clubs of the religion that sprang-up after Jesus manage to dislike and fight each other. Never a dull moment. They both agree on who the Savior and Son of God truly is, but still find ways to hate each other... priceless. The irony is like the humidity in Savannah in late July.
According to Biblical accounts that fight started even while Jesus watched. Maybe Jesus and his movement was just a little more human than many give credit?
Maybe. I've often been exposed to the interpretation that God, in order to better communicate with us (His creation), he had to "become one of us." Now, that makes sense, I guess, in a practical capacity. I hear the correlation of the shepherd trying to warn his flock, but they are sheep and not human. If only the shepherd could become a sheep to explain to them. But, even that is still from a human perspective. That's the thing with all of this type of discussion. We're still human and we can only be human WHILE we're alive. I do believe we can heighten our senses to be more in touch with what God is to each of us (or the ones who accept God as being real). That's another reason I opt-out of the religious clubs. They don't work for me effectively enough to put much trust in them.
While I tend to share your pessimism, I think we are as good as we try to be and as evil as we allow ourselves to be. So I favor more of the trying and less of the allowing.
If this was true, poverty rates should remain steady without regard to social programs. Research that. I think you will find you are empirically incorrect.
