The most interesting part of the Pope's speech to Congress

[JDeuce]

So in his speech to Congress today, His Holiness found plenty of time to go on and on about how the US should open its borders to take in everyone and anyone who wants to enter (and, what the hell...we should also pay for their stay while we're at it).

He talked about climate change and how us American pigs are the primary culprits.

Do you know what word he didn't say once, though? In his entire speech? Have a look:

Really, sir?

This guy is nothing but a shill for communism. Any time he'd like to compare the numbers on whether capitalism or prayer lifted more people out of poverty, I'd love to hear hi response. Suggesting capitalism creates poverty is flat out moronic.

 

[SheriffJoe]

Commies come in all forms, this one happens to be wearing a long white dress.

He also railed against guns but no mention of the millions of dead baby parts sold for profit?

This Pope is a disgrace. He spends more time reading from the Marxist playbook than the Bible.

Oh well, just like the Kenyan, the mask is officially off - now everyone can simply ignore him.

Amazing how the insane, agenda filled, wingnut mind works(or in this case doesn't work). He mentioned the word G-d 9 times in his speech, but who's counting? But because he didn't call G-d by his name, that means something, and the Right Wing websites got on the case immediately to notify their minions. The pope has his heart in the right place, and actually has a heart, and that's a crime to the wingnuts.

Yeah, you care so much about this that you can't even type out the word God. Probably because you're one of those pseudo intellectual idiots who believes you're so "smart" and enlightened that you've come to realize God doesn't exist...which is beyond hilarious considering your extremely low intelligence level.

Guesser is simply giving us a preview of the new tactic dimocraps will use. "You're just a Christian hater if you don't agree with the pope!" As if they ever gave a fuck about any negative words uttered about Catholics before.

 

[RenoChazz]

Typing G-d is a hebrew thang. I agree with guesser that the Pope's heart is in the right place, he's just wrong on economics and capitalism, which has brought things like running water, medicine, electricity ect, to the worlds poor. No better time than the present for the world's poor.

you think people who don't believe in God are because of low intelligence? I grew up catholic....classes, church, the whole thing. I have my doubts about God. It's human nature to wanna believe there is something beyond this existence.....nobody wants to think this is it.....so in some way....they have to believe in God. I wanna believe and I hope there is......but I'm just not sure. I'm not an atheist.....I'm just on the fence.....I lean to no but as jack Nicholson said " I'd love to be wrong, if I'm wrong, I win"

But calling the pope a commie because he doesn't believe what you do.....is a bit much.

I forget why, but G-d is a jew thing.

They learn it in school.

edit: oh RC said so too. Yeah I knew it wasn't something he just made up.

 

[Willie99]

he hates our capitalism, but he wants our money

c'mon man, that's liberalism 101




kinda reflects the entire world view too

they hate us, we do too much, except when they need us and then we're not doing enough

 

[JDeuce]

Willie goes yard.

If you look at this through a dimocrap lens...those who contribute nothing to society are fully deserving of all the free benefits they receive, but if you're a tax-paying worker then you're not contributing enough.

Try wrapping your head around that one.

The Catholic church is sitting on an almost incalculable amount of wealth and treasure. Someone come find me whenever anyone can get around to asking His Holiness where he thinks that fortune came from. Hmm...was it donated by the poor? Or perhaps by some of those capitalists he seems to demonize every chance he gets?

It is to demonstrate our awe in the presence of The Almighty that we do not type his name. The original name of G-D (in Hebrew) is "Adonai." I am not supposed to type that name or speak it out loud except in prayer. When Jews pray to G-D we say, "Adonai." However when discussing G-D outside of prayer we refer to him as "Hashem." So when Jews began speaking English Adonai to Hashem became God to G-D. Many Hebrew prayers begin, "Baruch Atah Adonai" which means "Blessed Art Thou O Lord Our G-D." Our president's first name is actually Baruch. Now his middle name? Somehow, some way I'd wager that originated in Hebrew as well.

As usual, your ignorance, hatred, false assumptions, and general douchebagness was on full display for all to see. Carry on, and make sure you mention Pro Wrestling in your response, because it's real important that I'm a fan of it, in your world.

I hope this turns off our Congress with the Pope trying to tell them what to do & I hope it has the same effect on the UN today...The other Pope should have stayed in...This guy is a real dud...

“Peacefully they will die, peacefully they will expire in Thy name, and beyond the grave they will find nothing but death. But we shall keep the secret, and for their happiness we shall allure them with the reward of heaven and eternity.”

 

[JudgeWapner]

Yeah, he's probably a Muslim also. You guys should be half the man this guy is.

 

[SheriffJoe]

I have said it for quite a while now, the guy is a fraud. He hates America as much as the Kenyan. "Climate change"????? For real???? face)(*^%

I'm getting a kick out of watching all the lefties swoon over this Pope. Since when does a Pope speak in front of Congress anyway? Where's all the usual paranoia and hysteria about separation of church of state? I guess so long as the Pope speaks from the Church of Progressivism everything is okie dokie.

Some of the responses in this thread belong in FZ's 'Hypocrisy' thread.

 

[GasMan]

Deuce, I am not by any means a religious fanatic...but this has all been prophesized. I remember this exact topic being conversed while I was in Catholic school.

If you do care to check it out is in in Revelations 17.

For those who care to call this post stupid, go fuck yourselves. Like I said, religion is about 15th on my chart of 20 things to do in life...
I know this will be difficult to comprehend, but the pope and the current day Catholic Church are the beast and prostitute.

Babylon, the Prostitute on the Beast

17 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits by many waters. [SUP]2 [/SUP]With her the kings of the earth committed adultery, and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.”
[SUP]3 [/SUP]Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. [SUP]4 [/SUP]The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. [SUP]5 [/SUP]The name written on her forehead was a mystery:
babylon the great
the mother of prostitutes
and of the abominations of the earth.

[SUP]6 [/SUP]I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of God’s holy people, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.
When I saw her, I was greatly astonished. [SUP]7 [/SUP]Then the angel said to me: “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns. [SUP]8 [/SUP]The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]“This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. [SUP]10 [/SUP]They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while. [SUP]11 [/SUP]The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction.
[SUP]12 [/SUP]“The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. [SUP]13 [/SUP]They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. [SUP]14 [/SUP]They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.”
[SUP]15 [/SUP]Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and languages. [SUP]16 [/SUP]The beast and the ten horns you saw will hate the prostitute. They will bring her to ruin and leave her naked; they will eat her flesh and burn her with fire. [SUP]17 [/SUP]For God has put it into their hearts to accomplish his purpose by agreeing to hand over to the beast their royal authority, until God’s words are fulfilled. [SUP]18 [/SUP]The woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth.”

vitterd, are you familiar with this verse? It basically is the destruction of Christianity. I don't think we are too far from it.

 

[Acebb]

I'm sick of hearing the Pope talk about the climate and economics. He should stick to scripture and Church Doctrine.

 

[GasMan]

Yeah hilarious, the lefties who are SO against church and state are now all in...just because it fits their agenda.

Enemies make strange bed fellows.

I'm not familiar? Why you asking me? Lol

i don't understand the fascination with the pope.....I mean, to me, his words don't mean much, if anything. I understand that it's a big deal for many.....I'm just not one of them.

Im more agitated that I know some asshole who had early information about the Pope visit, booked a bunch of hotel rooms and has been gauging people. Can't stand that shit.
