Has nobody told them that nobody gives a shit what U.S.A. Christians are up to?

lmao that's the pope, dingus, he speaks for your god. you dont get to be mad if you want to remain a catholic

I don't get why these people don't just become protestants or whatever. Like is their entire access to catholicism seriously just the aesthetic vibes? Thinking the pope wrong about shit is a solved problem ffs.

"thou shalt not kill"

"fucking commie "

Even the implication that your devotion could be conditional or revoked seems, to me, to undermine any actual benefit of the spirituality. Jesus, you have my heart and I have seen the way... it happens to be my way and the way I would have done it. Mercy only for the #worthy

One would assume that the social benefits are underwritten by the unwaivering faith, lest it water down into aesthetics and simply being a proxy for prejudice.

Will "probably" stay? Are you about it or not?

I'm a proud lifelong Catholic, willing to make countless marginalized people miserable to adhere to the two or three teachings in the Bible I like!

Thou shall not kill?

Hasn't the Catholic Church been officially against the death penalty for at least decades though?

It is like their "Christianity" is just about worshipping authority and giving themselves permission to do whatever they want.

it do be like that sometimes

I see two possibilities here:

-This believes Catholicism is true, in which case "I will probably stay a catholic" is a very flippant attitude to have to his immortal soul.

-This guy doesn't believe Catholicism is true, in which case "I've been a Catholic all my life" is a bit weird since he knows he doesn't actually believe.

I've said it before and i'll say it again

I should be Pope

I'd strip down the gold and jewels, give the money to the poor and let everyone finger through the Vatican archives (as long as they didn't have buffalo sauce fingers)

As an added bonus, i'd start having people hit with halberds too

Going to a private Catholic school was painful at the time, but ultimately ended up great. Parents, siblings, none of us are practicing after getting educated.

Props to this Pope though I guess. If he's making these guys angry he's doing something right. He really should be excommunicating anyone who has been elected to the US federal government though.

Possibly the funniest bit is said chuds malding over Leo and Francis when opposition to the death penalty has been soft dogma since John Paul II, and conservative pope Benedict XVI called for its abolition.

The children yern for pope Muy Rico 69th

Someone should tell them that if they're Catholic, doing performance reviews on God's infallible messenger to humankind goes a smidge outside their remit.

I'm not a Catholic but isn't the pope supposed to be Gods Representative on Earth? Isn't Papal Supremacy and Papal Infallibility still a thing? Maybe it's my quasi-protestant upbringing but I was led to believe Catholics received their marching orders from the Pope in Rome. I thought the hierarchical church was Catholicisms whole deal, and what he says goes

Maybe the pope needs to go back to excommunicating these heretics

yeah, if we don't get a new pope soon i think i'm just going to become a protestant.. i just can't with these low-quality popes they've been picking lately

Most serious catholic
