You claim they're not mentioned in the Bible, yet the first Gentile to become Christian was a eunuch. Read Acts 8 vs 26. Read the story of Esther, which is so interesting it should be made into a movie. A personal question. Do you ever research things you post? 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 2
Niagara Bill Posted Friday at 07:54 PM Posted Friday at 07:54 PM 7 hours ago, Joe Ferguson forever said: 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. One could say he knew so much about the US, he left..

The point made is not about you, it is also that the Roman Catholic Church isn't interested either, and that's an issue when you claim authority to the the idiotic point of being the only entity to interpret it.

The idiot "journalist" asked him who he would want as pope. What kind of stupid question is that? First, he isn't Catholic, second 99.99999999% of Catholics have no idea either. She asked a stupid question, he gave a funny answer, someone on created a meme for it, and the left predictably go ape sh**. You got owned again. why are you so staunch in saying this post is true without being in my skin? Impossible oh I got owned alright. By a con named don.. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. ZILCH

THIS is a HUGE problem in our country SMH Mup, you know I love ya, but there ain’t no one listening to no one these days, and it’s not a MAGA problem. The left went bonkers when Trump was elected, thought they carried the day with Harris and so vastly overplayed their hand they turned off just about everyone but the hardcore left. All this blather about Trump and retribution…people are not looking to meet in the middle any more than the liberals were under Biden. And @B-Man is a good dude and good poster. All he did was attempt to reset the dialogue. Very unsnarkolicious imo. 1

THIS Pontiff being selected for the reasons I am reading he possesses I HOPE he can handle the International pressure that such a title puts on the shoulders of a man. Yes he is a Priest and has good qualities which made he be chosen in the first place. But going from being a Bishop to Pope HUGE JUMP in pressure. Can you imagine? NOW what decisions and actions will he make to make our world a better place? Isn't that the bottom line in all of this? it is to me. 1

PPP raises my blood pressure too much Happy Mother’s Day Mup—hope it’s an awesome one today. I’ve been lucky—a great Mother, a wonderful Mother-in-law, and my wife is an incredible Mother to my children. Today is a day for gratitude, I’m more and more convinced that having parents who care, and a mother who loves you enough to bring the pain during times of silliness is one of life’s great gifts. Mine did, and still does. In the spirit of gratitude I have also decided to unshun @B-Man. The Leo thing always makes me laugh. I think it’s not a coincidence that the new Pope took that name…😄 1 1

I’ll go with this—Levi is a poor man’s Leo, and why buy generic when you can get the brand name for free!
