I’m going to be blunt.
I’d like to talk about some of the very stupid things that people are saying right now
If you’re not catholic, I’m not talking to you. I’m talking to people who say they are Catholic.
Let’s start with the talking point about the pope sitting behind walls.
Have you been to the Vatican? These “high walls” that were built in the fourth century leave an opening about a half a mile wide so that anyone and everyone can simply walk in anytime.
Look at an image of Saint Peter Square you’ll see exactly what I mean.
What the heck are you guys talking about with high walls?
Would you like them to tear down a fourth century wall so that you think their politics might be more defendable?
Would you like a pope that runs about shouting “cry havoc and let’s slip the dogs of war!” is that the pope you want? What mighty army would he summon? How did our invasion of Iraq in the Afghanistan go? How many corpses do we need to pile up until everyone understands that war is a horror. Statistically, more than 99% of the people screaming for war will never be affected by it.
Maybe The Pope should call for a crusade?
I’m sure all 27 Americans who replied to it would make a huge difference.
Your political masters .2 about eight posts to see how bad the pope is. You believe them.
He’s given a ton of speeches about Islamic violence, he’s done everything in his speaking power to encourage people toward peace. But your political masters told you different and you followed like good acolytes.
Most of our Protestant brothers and sisters love us, Catholics. But the Huxter‘s and the insecure don’t. I’m watching Catholics repeat the talking points of anti-Catholic madman and acting like they have a geopolitical sense greater than that of a man in charge of a world wide institution with 1.3 billion members.
Pardon my intensity, but I am very sick of Americans being more formed by right wing and left-wing political commentators then they are by the spirit of the living God.
Do you want war? Go fight in one. Stand with me at the funeral of these beautiful lives, shredded and cut short so that your political masters are appeased.
@danhoppen You are correct. The Aviles cuban sandwich is the best I've ever had. I just hope they can handle all the business they'll get once the word gets out.
Husker fans have not only over taken Oklahoma City’s hotels, bars and restaurants, they also just overtook St. Joseph’s Old Cathedral for 4 pm mass. The priest couldn’t believe how much red was there. The church sat 700 people and was 85 percent Husker fans.
@HurrdatSports 20+ years of recruiting hype in the NU program. Some pan out, many don't. I'm exhausted. Results on the field will speak for themselves. Everything else means nothing.
@coachoneillMN Traudt got fouled on the following jump bull stuff too. Horrible officiating. SH was all over the Jays the entire game. Played a role in why they couldn't inbound the ball towards the end of the game too.
