POPE FRANCIS GOES FULL BLOWN COMMIE!!!


So it’s now according to that world renowned climatologist, Pope Francis, aka ‘The Commie Pope,’ that ‘climate change’ is now one of the greatest dangers, if not the greatest, faced by humanity. Falling just short of calling it an existential threat, he did point out what he views it as being a dire consequence for the world if it is not addressed in what he views is an urgent manner. And it was the Pope who, just this Saturday, sent a message Saturday to the COP28 United Nations climate summit decrying the “unbridled exploitation” of the environment by first world nations. Perhaps the Pope should stick to that which he is supposed to know best.

Anyway, it was in his rather sternly worded address that the pontiff warned that ‘climate change’ “greatly endangers all human beings,” and claimed that “time is short” to react to the current ecological crisis. And he also went on to rather boldly declare, “It has now become clear that the climate change presently taking place stems from the overheating of the planet, caused chiefly by the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere due to human activity, which in recent decades has proved unsustainable for the ecosystem.” So I’m more than a little curious, what is it that he bases all of this doom and gloom on other than his leftist politics?

Due to an “inflammation of the lungs,” the Pope was unable to travel personally to Dubai, where it conference was held, to read his message, so the text was read instead by Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin. And as to be expected it was also in his address that the Pope also blamed capitalist greed for the failure to act more decisively to prevent ‘climate change.’ He said, “The drive to produce and possess has become an obsession, resulting in an inordinate greed that has made the environment the object of unbridled exploitation.” And he went on to add, “The climate, run amok, is crying out to us to halt this illusion of omnipotence."

And it was also according to the Pope that we find ourselves facing “firm and even inflexible positions calculated to protect income and business interests.” The Pope went on to insist that “the footprint of a few nations” is “responsible for a deeply troubling ‘ecological debt’ towards many others.” Therefore, it would “only be fair to find suitable means of remitting the financial debts that burden different peoples, not least in light of the ecological debt that they are owed.” And the ‘Commie Pope’ suggested that along with capitalist greed, the culprits behind ‘climate change’ also include nationalists who refuse to get with the globalist program.

He said, “What is the way out of this? It is the one that you are pursuing in these days: the way of togetherness, multilateralism.” And he also proposed it is “disturbing that global warming has been accompanied by a general cooling of multilateralism,” and it is “essential to rebuild trust, which is the foundation of multilateralism.” And he declared that ‘climate change’ signals the need for political change and “a new multilateralism.” He urged, “Let us emerge from the narrowness of self-interest and nationalism; these are approaches belonging to the past. Let us join in embracing an alternative vision: this will help to bring about an ecological conversion."

The Pope said that COP28 should be a “turning point,” leading to “a decisive acceleration of ecological transition” that must include “the elimination of fossil fuels” and transition to renewables. And he went on to say, “To all of you I make this heartfelt appeal: Let us choose life! Let us choose the future!” And he added, “May we be attentive to the cry of the earth, may we hear the plea of the poor, may we be sensitive to the hopes of the young and the dreams of children!” I’d love to ask this Pope, “Where in the Bible does it say the Earth is going through ‘climate change?’” Perhaps he needs to just stay in his lane and spread the good word.

And have you ever noticed how it is that Pope Francis NEVER spends all that much time talking about Christ? Isn’t that odd for a man in his chosen position? Instead, he mostly condemns conservatives, talks about global warming, and calls border security a sin. Francis has no credibility or moral authority. Pope Francis is your typical Argentinian Marxist. No more, no less. I have noticed for quite some time now that this Pope never has anything positive to say. It’s just too bad that our Pope isn’t spending his time on strengthening the Church rather than playing politics and being a naysayer for the end of man. The Pope is the dope of hope in the climate cult.

I believe the hysteria is being ramped up because day by day it’s becoming obvious to even the most ignorant and those people with a short memory, that none of the predictions over the last 40 years have come true and that it is clearly not getting warmer. There is only a small window of opportunity to keep fleecing people when the cost-of-living crisis, brought about by previous socialist policies to combat climate change, finally dawns on everyone that they have been had and the riots begin in earnest. Include the Islamification of the western world in bringing about the destruction of our society, and civil war is going to be the natural end game.

Ah yes, that bastion of scientific truth, the Catholic Church. The unborn are being murdered to up to birth, children are medically transitioned, pride parades everywhere, families breaking down, and the Pope is worried about ‘climate change.’ Outside of natural, inevitable fluctuations, climate is no different than it was at the start of the industrial revolution. Since the left always create a crisis whenever they want more money from the people, we know this is just another one of their hoaxes. There is NO proof that the Earth is in any kind of a climate crisis. It’s a bogus theory based on concocted ‘science,’ and no amount of lies is ever going to change that.

The Pope doesn’t know enough about the planet’s environment to comment intelligently about the supposed cause of ‘climate change,’ which has been constant for the entire existence thereof. Benedict XVI and John Paul II presented strong Christian values during their papacy. They seemed kind and pure and delivered positive messages. Francis, on the other hand, has none of that. He comes off as bitter old man with a political agenda to shove down everybody's throats. With that being said, this man is undeserving of the papacy and should be removed from his post immediately as he is doing nothing good for the Catholic church.

FRANCIS, THE ‘COMMIE POPE’ PREACHES THE EVILS OF FOSSIL FUELS…


Like so many of those who consider themselves to be the elites among us than therefore so much better than the rest of us, from those in the entertainment business, to athletes and most media types, and who seem unable to control themselves when it comes to lecturing the rest of us regarding how we should go about the living of our daily lives, it would seem that we can now add to that list a supposed man of faith who is apparently afflicted with that same mental disorder. And like so many of these so-called ‘elites,’ perhaps this supposed ‘man of faith’ should perhaps stick to that which he is, at least, supposed to know best.

And I only say that because it now seems that ‘Commie Pope’ Francis has chosen to double down on his own little personal war on fossil fuels while at the same time condemning “extreme practices” such as fracking. I must say that I’m more than a bit surprised to hear him offering an opinion on something so far removed from his supposed area of expertise, the saving of souls. But be that as it may, the ‘Commie Pope’ recently declared in his message for the Feast of Creation, to be celebrated on 1 September, that it’s time for world leaders to “listen to science and institute a rapid and equitable transition to end the era of fossil fuel."

And it was the ‘Commie Pope’ who then went on to insist that it is “absurd to permit the continued exploration and expansion of fossil fuel infrastructures.” He said, “Let us raise our voices to halt this injustice towards the poor and towards our children, who will bear the worst effects of climate change.” And he declared that “the unrestrained burning of fossil fuels and the destruction of forests are pushing temperatures higher and leading to massive droughts,” to be a product of “consumerist greed, fueled by selfish hearts.” As far as I’m concerned, there are far more important issues that we should expect him to be commenting on.

Moreover, he states, “predatory industries are depleting and polluting our freshwater sources through extreme practices such as fracking for oil and gas extraction, unchecked mega-mining projects, and intensive animal farming.” As he has declared on other occasions, the ‘Commie Pope’ insists that “richer nations have contracted an ‘ecological debt’ that must be paid” to poorer nations. And he said, “Let us heed our call to stand with the victims of environmental and climate injustice, and to put an end to the senseless war against creation.” And he urged people to repent of our “ecological sins that harm the world of nature and our fellow men and women."

The ‘Commie Pope’ failed to mention the fact that cheap, abundant fossil fuels are a hugely important factor in economic development and one of the key reasons there are prosperous nations in the first place. Forbes has noted, “One of the most evil things you can do to a poor person is take away his freedom to improve his fate,” and that this is exactly what happens in a push “for massive restrictions on the energy of opportunity: fossil fuel energy.” Forbes also noted, “A brief history of development in the last three decades makes it clear that cheap, plentiful, reliable energy from fossil fuels is a winning formula for development and massive improvements in human life."

And also noted by Forbes is the fact that since the 1980s, “people around the world nearly doubled their use of fossil fuels,” it stated. “The poor benefited most of all — but they would have stayed destitute had we listened to leading environmentalists.” And it asserted that, “If climate endangerment of the poor is a moral issue, then the climate catastrophists are major sinners.” And the ‘Commie Pope’ announced this past Wednesday that he intends to publish a second encyclical letter on the environment on October 4. That leaves him just over four weeks to repent regarding his war on fossil fuels, lifeline to economic development for the poor.

And so instead of calling on the nations of the world to end the era of global human trafficking, child pornography, gender mutilation, abortion, and for-profit euthanasia, this religious fraud instead called upon western civilization to commit suicide. And all in the name of what, exactly? And why is it that this guy is so hellbent on providing his opinions on LGBTQ, fossil fuels/green energy, open borders, sharing the wealth and any other topic that has nothing whatsoever to do with his position as leader of the Catholic Church? And all the while having 24/7/365 armed guards at his place of residence? As far as I’m concerned not only is he a sinner, but he’s also a Communist.

This ‘Commie Pope’ is nothing more than a pro-New World Order, pro-Abortion, pro- Pedophile, pro-Gay and Trans and anti-Bible, Pope. It’s absolutely nothing that this guy says on any topic, whether religion, politics or economics makes even a lick of sense. If he is such a believer in ridding the world of this evil, then why doesn’t he show the way? I mean he could lead by example and stop jetting all around the globe and live out his life in true austerity and without all the comforts of home that come from those evil fossil fuels. Or does he mean just the us peons should stop using fossil fuels? Pushing bogus ‘climate change’ is not something he needs to be talking about.

Finally, I think it’s pretty safe to say that it matters not at all to the ‘Commie Pope’ that it’s fossil fuels that have done more to eliminate hunger and suffering in the world than any other single factor. And add to that the fact that fossil fuels are also the source of asphalt for roads, wire insulation, much of the clothing we all wear, plastic used for food containers and in electronics and fertilizers that are used to grow our food. And, like every other ‘climate change’ zealot, he purposely neglects to show us the science because the science, the true science, doesn’t support his claims. Our ‘Commie Pope’ calls himself a man of God, but in truth he’s nothing but a rabid leftist.

AND NOW, A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE FROM THE ‘COMMIE POPE’…


And so it was that very recently we heard from everyone’s favorite ‘Commie Pope,’ Pope Francis, who had a rather odd Christmas message for Christians this year.  You see, it was the ‘Commie Pope’ who urged Christians to spend less on Christmas this year and to send the savings to the people of Ukraine. Now I don’t know about anyone else, but I feel confident in saying that I’ve already sent enough money to the people of Ukraine courtesy of Joey B’s continuing money-laundering scheme. What money I have that has not been spent because of higher costs for food and gas, also courtesy of Joey B, will be spent on providing those I love with the best Christmas possible.

Anyway, it was to those who had gathered in the Vatican for his weekly General Audience Wednesday that the ‘Commie Pope’ said, “There is so much suffering in Ukraine, so much, so much!” And the ‘Commie Pope’ went on to say, “I would like to draw some attention to the coming Christmas, even the parties,” he said. “It’s nice to celebrate Christmas, to have parties… but let’s lower the level of Christmas spending a bit.” And the ‘Commie Pope’ went on to suggest that the money saved on the more commercial side to Christmas could be redirected to the suffering people of Ukraine. Sorry, charity begins at home, spending what I have on me and mine!

He said, “Let’s have a humbler Christmas, with more humble gifts.” And he added “We send what we save to the Ukrainian people, who are in need, who suffer so much.” And he said, “They are hungry, they feel the cold and many die because there are no doctors or nurses at hand.” He concluded his remarks saying, “Let us not forget: a Christmas, yes; at peace with the Lord, yes, but with Ukrainians in our hearts. And let’s make that concrete gesture for them.” His Holy Wokeness doesn’t get it. We are already tired of having OUR money sent to Ukraine, by Joey, without our consent. We’re not interested in supplementing the graft that’s happening.

The ‘Commie Pope’ should know that there are many more worthy causes for one choose from than choosing to support the war in Ukraine. Thanks to Joey the American people are going to be lucky if, after spending what it now costs to feed their families and heat their homes, they’ll be able to have any sort of Christmas at all. And I guess it’s not enough that America has gone $100 billion in debt funding Ukraine? We owe them our Christmas too? What wonderful Christmas messages we’ve had this year. First Joey B invites a pedophile drag queen to the White House, then calls anyone who is opposed to genital mutilation in children Nazis and now this!

Another perfect example how elections have consequences and fraudulent elections have disastrous consequences. I do feel for the minority of Ukrainians who didn’t vote for the fascist responsible for bringing all this pain and suffering to their country. Much in the same way I feel for those in America who didn’t vote for a demonic, pro-baby killing, pro-sexual perversion, and pro-lawlessness Democrat Party. But unfortunately, thanks to the 65 percent of Catholics who did vote for a demonic political ideology all Americans are suffering the consequences. So please excuse me if my only response to this guy, the ‘Commie Pope,’ is for him to go fuck himself!

And there is NO WAY we have gone from energy independence and a thriving economy to utter chaos and a crashing economy in less than two years without it being intentional!! They want to take your money, your cars, your jobs, your homes and your children! They know President Trump can fix it and they will stop at nothing to destroy him and the country! America is being invaded by illegals coming across our open border. This is a war that has not been declared, and we are spending billions to encourage this invasion. Yet, we continue to hand over billions of undocumented cash to the corrupt Ukraine government to supposedly defend their border.

Another public embarrassment for the faithful from the ‘Commie Pope.’ Specifically, one more moralistic-sounding message that’s actually globalist politics and way out of touch with grass-roots realities. Apparently, he still doesn’t know, or knows, but doesn't care, that working and middle class and, yes, POOR folks throughout the West are already “spending less on Christmas” and are running up debt rather than savings. That includes his favorite Capitalist whipping boys (whipping-persons?) even here in his bogeyman America, although his pet apostate Joey B has already committed not-audited $100+ billion in our tax money to the corrupt Ukraine government.

Anyway, you can rest easy, Your Holiness, because Christmas spending is in fact down this year, due mostly to the skyrocketing energy costs, food prices, and general inflation resulting from your beloved Green lunacy and other Marxist policies you push as ‘Christian social teaching,’ which they are not. Also hurting are small businesses and family farmers, but you seem to consider them greedy exploiters and planet-wreckers, and don’t care about their pain, either. The only people spending freely are the super-wealthy, authoritarian globalist elites in Davos, Brussels, and Beijing, but they’re your bankers and BFFs, so you give them dispensation.

THE ‘COMMIE POPE’ AND THE LEFTWING AGENDA…


Not being a Catholic myself I’ve never really cared when it came to whom, exactly, the pope was at any particular time. Of course, I’m sure anyone old enough to remember will remember Pope John Paul II, and very fondly so. He was a man who was an inspiration to freedom loving people everywhere, whether they were Catholic or not. But it’s in the current pope, Pope Francis, that we now have a man who is everything that Pope John Paul II most certainly was not. It’s in THIS man that we have someone who cares less about freedom than he does about advancing every leftwing cockamamie scam from bogus ‘climate change’ to illegal immigration!

For instance, it was as recently as this past week that our self-serving ‘Commie’ Pope Francis declared, and rather boldly so, that our current “climate crisis” actually has its roots in the Industrial Revolution, but for many years “it remained imperceptible except to a very few clairvoyants.” And it was in the preface to a Vatican booklet titled “Pastoral Orientations on Climate Displaced People,” that the ‘Commie Pope’ argued that the disastrous effects of bogus ‘climate change’ should be evident to everyone. He even went so far as to assert, “We are engulfed by news and images of whole peoples uprooted by cataclysmic changes in our climate, forced to migrate.”

And it was the ‘Commie Pope’ who stated, “When people are driven out because their local environment has become uninhabitable, it might look like a process of nature, something inevitable.” And he said, “Yet the deteriorating climate is very often the result of poor choices and destructive activity, of selfishness and neglect, that set humankind at odds with creation, our common home.” And that which should come as no surprise, it was, as he has done on numerous other occasions, once again that our ‘Commie Pope’ chose to compare global warming to the ‘Chinese virus’ pandemic, insisting, however, that humanity should have seen the climate ‘crisis’ brewing.

He declared, “Unlike the pandemic, which came on us suddenly, without warning, almost everywhere, and impacting everyone at once, the climate crisis has been unfolding since the Industrial Revolution.” He said, “For a long time it developed so slowly that it remained imperceptible except to a very few clairvoyants.” He asserted, “Even now it is uneven in its impact: climate change happens everywhere, but the greatest pain is felt by those who have contributed the least to it.” He claimed the “huge and increasing numbers displaced by climate crises” are fast becoming “a great emergency of our age and demanding global responses.”

And then, it was in choosing to reference the Bible, that the ‘Commie Pope’ went so far as to warn of future disasters if humanity fails to act. He said, “If you are ready to listen, we can still have a great future. But if you refuse to listen and to act, you will be devoured by the heat and the pollution, by droughts here and rising waters there.” And it was along with his many other rather dire predictions regarding bogus ‘climate change’ that the ‘Commie Pope’ then turned to another favorite topic of his, and others on the left: immigration. He claimed, “Those driven from their homes by the climate crisis need to be welcomed, protected, promoted and integrated.”

And in, I guess, what was his attempt to portray those seeking entry into our country illegally in the best light possible he said, “They want to start over. To create a new future for their children, they need to be allowed to do so, and to be helped.” And he went on to say, “This is the work the Lord asks now of us.” He said, “We are not going to get out of crises like climate or COVID-19 by hunkering down in individualism but only by ‘being many together,’ by encounter and dialogue and cooperation.” What a bunch of leftwing drivel. And I can’t help but wonder if advancing any of this leftwing lunacy is in any way part his current job description. Because I kind of doubt it!

Now I’m not a real religious guy, but the ‘Commie Pope’ is supposed to be, right? And it’s as such that I would have thought that his Holiness would have chosen to speak on our Lord's passion and sacrifice during this Holy Week. But apparently such is not the case. Because instead, all we got more ‘fake news’ about ‘climate change.’ Before the Industrial Revolution the average life span was, I think, somewhere around 35 years, houses were heated with coal and/wood, lit with candles and all of diseases were rampant. So are we to assume that this is the type of world that our ‘Commie Pope’ wishes a return to excluding, of course, himself and the other elites?

So it’s in our ‘Commie Pope’ that we have a biblical ‘expert’ who now presumes to know what Jesus would think of those issues that didn’t actually exist when Jesus walked this Earth. Tell me, oh wise one, who is it that knows everything there is to know about the mind of our Savior? What would Jesus think about the ‘Commie Pope’s attempt to base his leftwing philosophy on the Bible? And is he deliberately trying to sabotage the faith which he professes to lead by meddling in issues that have nothing whatsoever to do with religion? Or, is he intent on promoting ‘climate change’ to where it holds the religious status which so many on the left already treat it?

It remains incomprehensible to me that the ‘Commie Pope’ can truly be this uninformed. It’s far more likely that he simply chooses to ignore the true data. Add to that the fact that he has absolutely no business expressing any opinion on anything other than spiritual ones. I get that he’s a Communist, but this goes way beyond that! Shouldn’t he be focusing on pedophilia in the Catholic Church, the loss of faith around the world or the push to eradicate Christianity currently underway all across the globe? This ‘Woke’ pope is nothing short of evil. If he isn't the false prophet spoken of in Revelation, then he is most certainly paving the way for whoever it may be!

Look, ‘climate change,’ in one form or another, has been occurring ever since the beginning of time, NOT just since the industrial revolution. Is the ‘Commie Pope’ REALLY wanting us all to go back to the 1700s? If so, just how does he intend to feed, clothe, give healthcare to the billions now living on earth? Or, might a few of those billions be terminated in some way? The Industrial Revolution, for all its faults, provided a better life for most all of humanity. His hatred of anything that sounds like capitalism is unprecedent in the church. ‘Rome is burning’ and our ‘Commie Pope’ is distracted by ‘fake news.’ The ‘Commie Pope’ really should stick to theology.

Apparently, it’s all of us who are now said to be at fault. We should have all stayed dumb, ignorant and huddled around campfires in our caves, except for those like this pope who would have continued on to enjoy living in a degree of luxury that only they deserved. We should now all flagellate ourselves for our ruination of the planet. The ‘Commie Pope’ would rather we all go back to the horse and buggy days while he flies first class. This guy is the ultimate Marxist fraud. If the Catholic Church wants to go full blown political that's fine, but it first needs to surrender its tax-free status on the billions that it has in real estate worldwide and on all the money it makes.

Break it, so you can remake it! The Democrats, encouraged by those like the ‘Commie Pope,’ are intentionally working very hard, every day, to bankrupt America by simply  ‘overwhelming the system’ so that they can then claim free enterprise (the correct term for ‘capitalism,’ which is a term coined by Communists), no longer works allowing them to then ‘remake’ the country, and the Constitution, based on what the government says what you can do and, what you can’t do. And they are succeeding. No one even talks about debt anymore. Actually, they won long ago, most just don't notice, care, or can’t figure it out. It’s all now only a matter of time before it ends.

DESPITE HIS DENIALS, OUR CURRENT POPE IS OBVIOUSLY A MAN OF THE LEFT…


It was just yesterday that Pope Francis made all the more apparent why it is that so many people view him as leaning pretty sharply to the left and why some even refer to him as ‘The Communist’ Pope.  It was in front of many of the world’s ‘leaders’ gathered there at the United Nations, Francis took it upon himself to strongly condemn what he called the craving for material gains and power, proclaiming that greed is destroying the Earth's resources and aggravating poverty. And I’m sure those listening were quick to take his message to heart.

It was in his speech to the U.N General Assembly, which is really nothing more than a “wretched hive of scum and villainy” comprised of those who are really nothing more than cutthroat despots and tin horn dictators, that ‘The Commie Pope’ said, "A selfish and boundless thirst for power and material prosperity leads both to the misuse of available natural resources and to the exclusion of the weak and disadvantaged."  The spiritual leader of the world's 1.2 billion Catholics condemned the "grave offense" of economic and social exclusion.

‘The Commie Pope’ went on to say, "The dramatic reality this whole situation of exclusion and inequality, with its evident effects, has led me, in union with the entire Christian people and many others, to take stock of my grave responsibility in this regard and to speak out."  Francis the ‘Commie Pope’ has often criticized unbridled capitalism during the two years of his papacy and, therefore, was quick to become recognized as a devoted man of the left.  Because, my friends, socialism has been proven to be so much more humane than capitalism.   

And so it was, yesterday, he had a high-powered audience at the United Nations, a group, which regrettably, has been allowed to exist now for 70 years. The gathering for the General Assembly this year is believed to have attracted the highest number of ‘leaders’ in the world body's history.  ‘The Commie Pope’, 78, actually called on these despots, dictators and thugs to fight human trafficking, boost education for girls and end the destruction of biodiversity which he warned is threatening the "very existence of the human species."

And I take it as being nothing less than a personal insult that, here on the soil of the very nation whose citizens are the most generous people on the planet, this supposed man of God would, nearly every time he opened his mouth, proceeded to slander America.  This nation has, and very willingly so, parted with of more it’s blood and treasure than any other country on this Earth.  And to the benefit of millions of people, complete strangers, and has never, NEVER, asked for anything in return.  How dare he presume to be able to lecture America?

And I suppose there will be those, I suspect many, who will say that I’ve got him all wrong.  They will say that he is only doing that which such men have always done, looking out for the poor and the downtrodden.  And while I do not question his goal, I do, and very emphatically, call into question his methods.  His approach for doing so is coming most decidedly from the left, and despite his denials he is most certainly much more comfortable with those on the left.  You have to ask yourself, why else have those on the left been so quick to embrace him?

And for those of you who doubt me, gathered below are 22 past statements by the pope that prove he's a consistent leftist:

1. He has called for centralized redistribution of wealth. In May of last year, the pope addressed the U.N., calling for what sounded like a socialist "redistribution of economic benefits by the state."

2. He has contradicted the teachings of past popes. Pope Francis' comments contrast starkly with John Paul II's writings. In Centensimus Annus (1991), John Paul acknowledged that Marxism clearly failed with the fall of the Soviet Union, and praised any economic system "which recognizes the fundamental and positive role of business, the market, private property and the resulting responsibility for the means of production as well as free human creativity in the economic sector."

3. He has decried "inequality" as "the root of social ills." Presumably speaking about capitalism, which has lifted billions out of poverty by providing jobs and other opportunities, the pope once said, "The current model, with its emphasis on success and self-reliance, does not appear to favor an investment in efforts to help the slow, the weak or the less talented to find opportunities in life."

4. He has rejected the most basic tenets of market-based capitalism. "We can no longer trust in the unseen forces and the 'invisible hand' of the market," the pope has said.

5. He has rejected basic tenets of personal liberty and the pursuit of happiness. "In a culture where each person wants to be bearer of his or her own subjective truth, it becomes difficult for citizens to devise a common plan which transcends individual gain and personal ambitions," he's said.

6. He has praised a children's book promoting homosexual coupling. On July 9 of this year, the pope sent a letter to the author of "Piccolo Uovo," which features a cast of animal characters including gay penguins and lesbian rabbits. "His holiness is grateful for the thoughtful gesture and for the feelings which it evoked, hoping for an always more fruitful activity in the service of young generations and the spread of genuine human and Christian values," said his letter to the book's author.

7. He has spoken at length about the need to combat climate change. "A number of scientific studies indicate that most global warming in recent decades is due to the great concentration of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxides, and others) released mainly as a result of human activity," he wrote in his recent encyclical.

8. He has defended homosexuality. In July 2013, the pope was asked what he thought about gay priests, and he responded with a laissez-faire attitude: "Who am I to judge a gay person of goodwill who seeks the Lord?" The statement, now one of Francis' most famous, was cheered by social liberals, progressives, and libertarians.

9. He has downplayed issues important to conservatives. "We cannot insist only on issues related to abortion, gay marriage, and the use of contraceptive methods. This is not possible," he said in 2013. "The teaching of the church, for that matter, is clear and I am a son of the church, but it is not necessary to talk about these issues all the time."

10. He has alienated many devout Catholics. Not pleased with the pope's comments, five Cardinals joined 500,000 petitioners from conservative group TFP Student Action this summer in asking the pope to reaffirm rational teaching on marriage and the family.

11. He has criticized the institution of the Catholic church. "The church sometimes has locked itself up in small things, in small-minded rules. The most important thing is the first proclamation: Jesus Christ has saved you," he said in August 2013.

12. He has criticized his fellow priests, and past Catholic leaders. "Heads of the Church have often been narcissists, flattered and thrilled by their courtiers. The court is the leprosy of the papacy," he said in an October 2013 interview in Italy.

13. He has discouraged evangelism of the Christian faith. "Proselytism is solemn nonsense, it makes no sense. We need to get to know each other, listen to each other and improve our knowledge of the world around us," he said in 2013.

14. He has criticized free-market capitalism. During a speech in Bolivia, Pope Francis called unfettered capitalism "the dung of the devil," a comment many saw as a possible endorsement of socialism. He went on to criticize "corporations, loan agencies, certain ‘free trade’ treaties, and the imposition of measures of 'austerity.'" U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan said the pope clearly displays a warped view of capitalism having grown up in Argentina, which is rampant with corruption and doesn’t have "a true free enterprise system."

15. He accepted a blasphemous crucifix from communist Bolivian President Evo Morales. During his visit to South America this year, Morales handed the pope a small statue of Jesus crucified on a hammer and sickle — the symbol of communism — and the pope took it in his hands, accepting the gift and taking it back to his home in the Vatican.

16. He has defended labor unions. During the same speech in Bolivia, the pope defended labor unions, not acknowledging a common criticism from conservatives that labor unions hurt students and consumers.

17. He has criticized fruitful Catholic families. "Some think . . . that in order to be good Catholics we have to be like rabbits. No. Responsible paternity, that is clear," the pope said in January, contravening 2,000 years of church teaching about reproduction and birth control.

18. He has seemingly advocated for cultural relativism. In speaking about Western ideals, the pope advocated "Every people deserves to conserve its identity without being ideologically colonized," perhaps not considering that many of those ideals are now regularly considered inalienable human rights.

19. He has encouraged more liberal academic traditions supported by many Jesuits. As the world's first Jesuit Pope, Francis has propped up vigorous debate among Cardinals and Bishops hailing from liberal, Jesuit-run universities and colleges.

20. He has offered friendly visits to cruel dictators like Cuban President Raúl Castro. The brother of Fidel Castro is an avowed ex-Catholic, but said he had a good time with the pope this May.

21. He will deliver mass in Cuba under a communist Che Guevara portrait. During his coming September visit, Pope Francis will deliver a sermon in the Plaza de la Revolución, which is presided over by an iron sculpture of the militant Guevara.

22. He has softened church rules regarding divorce and remarriage. Church doctrine says that divorced Catholics are not allowed to receive Communion, however Pope Francis signaled a potential shift in the doctrine in August of this year, saying "open doors" should greet "People who started a new union after the defeat of their sacramental marriage." He acknowledged that the church considers "taking up a new union" wrong, "contradicts the Christian sacrament" of marriage, and amounts to adultery, but said "true welcome toward people living in these situations" should be offered nonetheless.

POPE FRANCIS, THE “COMMIE POPE”…


In watching the recent interaction between Barry “Almighty” and our current ‘Commie Pope” it struck me that perhaps Pope Francis is to Barry much like Pope John Paul II was to Ronald Reagan.  And I think it’s fair to say that while the relationship between the first two men is similar to the relationship between the second two men, the objectives sought are very different.  Whereas Reagan and John Paul, and Margaret Thatcher, were crucial in bringing down the ‘Iron Curtain’, Barry and Francis seem to be just as determined in their efforts to condemn capitalism and bring down America.   And they seem to see America as having much to pay for.

And one of the tactics these two socialists have apparently agreed to implement regarding their joint venture against America came to light during the welcoming ceremony at the White House on Wednesday when Pope Francis launched into what has become one of the mainstays in the left’s attack on capitalism.  That being when the Pope claimed that “climate change is a problem” that can no longer be left to a future generation, and he actually went so far as to praise Barry for introducing an initiative for reducing air pollution.  Obviously the ‘Commie Pope” is far more interested in advancing the politics of the issue while ignoring the actual science.

And our ‘Commie Pope’ appeared none too shy about heaping a sickening amount of praise on his partner in crime as he went on to say, “Mr. President, I find it encouraging that you are introducing an initiative for reducing air pollution. Accepting the urgency, it seems clear to me also that climate change is a problem we can no longer be left to a future generation.”  And then in sounding very much like your basic environmentalist wacko doing his best to warn us of the coming apocalypse, our ‘Commie Pope’ said, “When it comes to the care of our common home, we are living at a critical moment of history,” adding that there’s still time to make changes.

But the ‘Commie Pope’ was far from finished with his ideological rant as he went on to say, “Such change demands on our part a serious and responsible recognition, not only of the kind of the world we may be leaving to our children, but also to the millions of people living under a system which has overlooked them.”  And then he said, “To use a telling phrase of the Rev. Martin Luther King, we can say that we have defaulted on our promissory note and now is the time to honor it,” he said.  This system that he claims has overlooked so many, has benefited even more.  America has provided to the world more blood and treasure than any other nation in history.

The ‘Commie Pope’ said, “We know by faith that the creator does not abandon us. He never forsakes,” adding that as Christians, we must “commit ourselves to the conscious and responsible care of our common home.”  And he then went on to say, “Mr. President, the efforts which were recently made to mend broken relationships and to open new doors to cooperation within our human family represent positive steps along the path of reconciliation, justice, and freedom.”  You have to wonder what the Hell he’s talking about.  Barry has done nothing to mend anything and it is because of Barry that the world is in such turmoil no matter where you look.  

And then he continued on using what was his best ‘it takes a village’ rhetoric.  Our ‘Commie Pope’ said, “I would like all men and women of goodwill in this great nation to support the efforts of the international community to protect the vulnerable in our world and to stimulate integral and inclusive models of development so that our brother and sisters everywhere may know the blessings of peace and prosperity with goodwill for all his children.”  I would like to ask this Pope why it is that he thinks the men and women of this great nation should support an international community that views America as being little more than a piggybank.

So now after seeing our ‘Commie Pope’ up close and personal I think we can now all agree that if there was ever a Pope who could be said to be the anti-John Paul II, Pope Francis, the ‘Commie Pope’ can be said to be that Pope.  The ending of the ‘Cold War’ and the bringing down of the ‘Iron Curtain” was very much a collaborative effort between Reagan, Thatcher and Pope John Paul II because they formed a united front against ‘communism’.  Now imagine, if you can, if that third player had not been Pope John Paul II but was instead Pope Francis.  How differently might things have turned out?  What might the planet look like today?
