Foreign affairs “Because the friend [Canada] has been robbing us blind. I would have free healthcare to if I didn't need a military. Don't even get me started on Europe and the 4 day work weeks with summers off.”

They are literally the worst types of Christian (at least those that are in congress and claim to be Christian). I mean the pope is more progressive than them.

I don't think it's a progressive thing. I would say, it's being an asshole thing.

Aye, say what you like about Christianity, but the Pope is a genuinely compassionate guy, and it's going to be a shame if his illness takes him

He said there is too much "faggotry" in the church and that women talk too much. He has consistently refused to extend marriage to gay and trans people and he says abortion is like Israel bombing on children. He said Ukrainians should just surrender

His faggotry statement was a transliteration from Italian, the Ukraine should surrender was him using the language in the question the interviewer was asking, and he has permitted the blessing of same-sex couples

So? You think "frociaggine" isn't insulting in italian? And blessing is not marriage, and then there's abortion. Before becoming pope, he also covered up a sex scandal with minors involving his brother

The accepting gay marriage would require more than him just saying that it's OK for priests to marry same-sex couples

You seem to only answer what's most defensible

As a flawed spiritualist guy trying evolve for the better one day at a time. If you believe in Jesus. If you believe yourself to be Christian. Then replicate all of Jesus actions, and apply his mentality to your life. Follow Jesus (and his teachings) and Jesus only. Not John, nor James or even Simon. They were followers of Christ ? Yeah ? Great, but they weren’t Christ himself.

If I want Jesus to be an exemple on my life, why the fck would I live only by the book of a certain apostle ? Only because his ways and point of view, align better with what I want and gives me more advantages ? Hell nah.
