Joe Ferguson forever

i can't read German but that's one stern looking guy. I bet he's great at parties. If Pope Benedict was the Rottweiler, this guy is likely a pitbull

Yes, because wars in Europe and the Middle East aren't adult problems....

Perhaps this is why he hasn't ended either of the wars he promised to... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-has-skipped-out-on-all-but-12-of-his-daily-intelligence-briefings/ar-AA1EvC6C

Laura loomer vs Pope Leo https://archive.is/LM7zQ Laura Loomer, a far-right activist who holds significant sway with Mr. Trump, wrote Thursday on social media that Leo’s style would be similar to that of his predecessor, Pope Francis, whom she described as “anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, pro-open Borders, and a total Marxist.” “Catholics don’t have anything good to look forward to,” she wrote. “Just another Marxist puppet in the Vatican.” And on Friday, guests on Steve Bannon’s popular right-wing “War Room” podcast piled on, casting Leo as a progressive figure and a continuation of Francis, an outspoken voice for migrants who was often at odds with Mr. Trump. Mr. Bannon, one of the president’s top allies, told the BBC that the selection was “kind of jaw-dropping,” adding that there was “definitely going to be friction” between the new pope and Mr. Trump.

more trump and miller crapping on the Constitution and rights. These rights go back to the Magna Carta. F'in barbarians with no respect for American history or the Constitution. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/09/trump-deportation-habeas-corpus-miller.html “No man shall be arrested or imprisoned...except by the lawful judgment of his peers and by the law of the land,” a provision in the Magna Carta, signed by King John in the early 13th Century, says. The U.S. Constitution, in Article 1, section 9, says, “The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.”

no one is confusing trump's politics with Bernie's...

Yesswir, I could talk eunuchs all day. But I'm just not interested. Nope, not a biblical scholar. More of a comparative religion type guy, meaning I took I course in it. We did some adult education bible courses through our church. It didn't really light my fire but the other people were/are nice. My wife always made a dessert. now indulgences, there's an issue I could sink my teeth into

cool. tell me what it says about them. I mean the purpose was too stop guards from banging the king's concubines, right. They were usually slaves. Lot's of slaves mentioned in the bible, so maybe. So did someone speak out agains eunuchism? I think nowadays everyone thinks being a eunuch is undesirable. I guess there's probably a few people on the periphery who might find it appealing some how. As long as they don't bother me.....

Not following. They had eunuchs back then. I don't believe they're mentioned in the bible. I think he'd be against both. But I'm confident he wouldn't tell the Romans how to write their laws.

I don't trust you as far as I can throw you. Why would anybody? It's like trusting trump. In more good news, it appears Pope Leo is a real Republican https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14693185/new-pope-robert-prevost-voting-history-conservative-liberal.html

From a PBS interview last night. I couldn't agree more. Rev. Thomas Reese: Well, of course, he's been elected pope for the whole world, so he's got to deal with all the world, not just the United States. But because of his knowledge of the United States, I think he will be focused on it. What can we do to reach out to young people? How can we make the church more inviting? Pope Francis was wonderful, but the problem was everybody said to themselves, gee, I wish I had Pope Francis as my pastor. And then they would go into their parish and they often didn't find Pope Francis. So I think that what Pope Leo has to do is help the clergy in the United States get on board with the vision that Pope Francis has, and now the vision that Pope Leo is bringing to the church.

look around American politics...

So people who think they can follow Christ "in their own way" without being part of the body, are, unfortunately, living a distortion of what is really an authentic experience. distortion is a measured statement. He's not saying you must be Catholic to go to heaven. That was settled a Pope or 2 ago...

I hope you're wrong. Or that whole anti Christ thing has some legs.

You can't win em all😎 He'll have a tough row to hoe. The world's a mess. God, please help him!

I stopped after the relics part. Yes, I've seen several. I don't believe all are real. But do they hold some spiritual power/ Don't know. I do know that I've been around objects that give me the hebe gebees. We bought a little indosian God carving that was just spooky. Threw it in the dump. Ever been in a house that just doesn't feel right? A relative trades Nazi daggers. I felt sick when he showed me. Says he makes good money. Not worth it... So if there are objects with bad Karma, why not ones with Good?

tell it to sherpa. straighten him out on his nonsense.

This is truly interesting. don't see it happening but I'm all for it. trump the socialist! https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5290814-trump-tax-hike-wealthy-gop-bill/

we don't worship Mary. We pray for her intercession. We don't worship the dead. Indulgences are not bought or sold anymore. We don't bow before idols. Wow, you hate our religion enough to speak disinformation.

you're an idiot

Why not? He publicly rebuffed trump multiple times. nonsequitor. whether I have migrants staying with me has no impact on what the bible says. we did have a big birthday party for a South American exchange student about a week ago. it was great fun. She drove for the first time ever in my UTV.

did the Pope refute it? you only believe what fits you narrative regarding foreigners, you might want to remind yourself of these bible verses. They're not limited to Catholics. https://sojo.net/22-bible-verses-welcoming-immigrants I would argue that many maga social and political beliefs are in direct opposition to the teaching of the bible.

https://www.ncregister.com/news/us-catholics-react-to-biden-s-claim-that-pope-francis-told-him-to-keep-receiving-communion It is not known whether Bishop Tobin’s tweet reached Pope Francis. But the message from Rome regarding the Pope’s actual pastoral guidance to Biden was surely a profound disappointment for the Rhode Island bishop — at least if he accepted the president’s account of the 75-minute private audience. Speaking with reporters after his Oct. 29 visit to the Apostolic Palace, Biden said Francis called him a “good Catholic” and advised him to keep receiving Holy Communion.

Why?

No, I'm saying that this man was made Pope through the actions of the Holy Spirit. Exactly why is unknown. But he's definitely on the more liberal side of the Catholic church.
