Anybody uncertain about his stance is just fooling themselves. And if they were using “If a person is gay and seeks God and has good will, who am I to judge?” to think that he was different than the other popes and RCC hierarchy, they read ONLY that sentence and not the rest of the context.

We see that happen right fucking here!

the institutional bigotry of the RCC that dominates politics around the world.

I mean, didn't Dawkins tweet something disrespectful toward religion? That's way worse, so I've heard.

In fact, we can see this right here on DU. One only need to lift up the rug to see the bigotry being hidden underneath.

Are you clumsily trying to call me a bigot, cleanhippie?

There's one way to fix this, rug: stop responding to me.


Here's a song for you.


https://m.

Much as you'd prefer your indirect insults go unanswered, you're out of luck.

When you're down putting up youtube smokescreens answer the two questions. If you can summon the integrity to do so without straining yourself.

Remember, cleanhippie, your usual insinuations of DUers being bigots raises questions that demand answers.

Oh, that's right...

Oh, I see the name. No wonder.

I am spared from observing the behavior directly, thankfully.

IOW, business as usual.

Impotent.


Shysters usually are.

And then talk about it.

You are transparent.

All I see are inapt smileys and nonsense.

Actually, Francis seems to have a nice personality.

He's the cover boy hiding the pile of horrid dogma.

John Paul II, Francis I, rock stars of inane obscurantism..

But that's normal.

While the doctrine is the toxic flavoring ingredient in the cake.

Like my new analogy better?

I've got one that just keeps buzzing and buzzing...

It's like an obsession or something.

I wonder if it was the same?

Is it generally a giant DB for no apparent reason other than annoyance?


It just may be the same one.

Except the DB part which I don't get, there is at least the deflection commonality.

My popeaholic also enjoys using sentences as if he was talking teacher to pupil.

Does yours?

Peeing in if they were on fire.

Or so I heard.

you may be subject to an accusation of complicity.

Actions louder than words and all that rot.

When you go to Cathoholics anonymous, do you have to stop believing in a higher power?

Pope Francis and the Vatican "gay lobby"—10 things to know and share

Did Pope Francis just admit the existence of a "gay lobby" at the Vatican? If so, what will he do about it?
Pope Francis recently made the news by, apparently, acknowledging the existence of a "gay lobby" at the Vatican.
What did he say? What did he mean? And what will he do in the future?
Here are 10 things to know and share . . .

1. What did Pope Francis say?
According to press reports, Pope Francis recently said:
"In the Curia there are holy people, truly, there are holy people. But there's also a current of corruption – there's that, too, it's true.... The 'gay lobby' is spoken of, and it's true, that's there... we need to see what we can do.”

7. Where have we heard about this before?
One possible member of the “gay lobby” was outed by the Italian media in 2007. He was swiftly dismissed from his position.
More recently, in the wake of the VatiLeaks scandal, Pope Benedict appointed a commission of three cardinals to conduct an investigation, and in the lead-up to the recent conclave the Italian press began reporting that the commission had turned up evidence of a “gay lobby” within the Vatican.

They've convinced people that he loves the gays because he hugged one.

So what if he wants to prevent them from marrying the people they love or adopting children?

It's the same thing as saying "I have a black/latino/Jewish etc friend so I can't be a bigot!"


Except he can be and is a bigot, one of the worst kind because even though he claims to love lgbt people he uses his influence around the world to prevent them from getting their human rights.

I'd rather be hated by him and have him stay out of my womb.
