Is the Pope a Christian? ;-)

Rate this post

As the old joke goes “Is the Pope a Catholic?” in other words, the answer to the question just asked is Yes, obviously!

To illustrate his point, the pontiff told journalists on the papal plane his assistant could expect a punch if he ”cursed his mother”. ”It’s normal – you cannot provoke, you cannot insult the faith of others,” he said. However: Matthew 5:38-39 – ‘Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.’

 

Catholic he may be, but Christian? No.

The new PR man at the Vatican, Pope Francis, has made the most ridiculous statement supporting a violent response to those who poke fun at religion.

He would ‘punch‘ anyone who mocks the irrational belief in the invisible, whatever variety of religious silliness is being mocked.

This is in direct opposition to the teachings of Jesus, his supposed boss (for heaven’s sake ;-0 ) who would, of course, have turned the other cheek.

Pope Francis was talking about the Charlie Hebdo attacks and said that he quite understood the action taken. Unbelievable! (Later, the Vatican tried to soft pedal the idiotic statement, but to no avail.)

The latest Pope has shown us how far from Jesus’ teaching the Roman Catholic church has strayed.

What a silly billy, but thanks for showing yourself up and making the case for atheism and secularism for us!

PS: Even Dave Cameraman has publicly stated his opposition to Popey’s pronouncements!

Well done Dave (I never thought I’d say that!)
