Pope says Trump is unchristian but embraces Cuba's Castro

[sean miguel]

Last Sunday, Pope Francis was in Mexico visiting sick children in hospitals. It was amazing to watch him holding the little kids and praying with their mothers. As a Catholic, I was so proud of "El Papa."

That was El Papa being El Papa, or the religious leader of my faith. He was reaching out to kids and their mothers and giving them some hope.

As he left Mexico, Pope Francis made a terrible mistake by saying that Donald Trump is not a Christian. I am not sure if he was answering a question or speaking at a meeting. He had finished a Mass on the El Paso-Ciudad Juarez border.

First, El Papa should stay away from presidential elections, here, there, and everywhere.

Second, the Vatican is one gigantic place surrounded by walls.

Third, is a border now un-Christian? How did we get to the point that defending borders and promoting legal immigration is now inhumane?

Fourth, El Papa has given Mr. Trump a huge gift. I am not a Trump supporter, but I believe that the U.S. has every right to protect and defend its borders. I don't know whether building a wall from Laredo to San Diego is the best answer. However, it may work in some isolated regions currently used by cartels to bring drugs and people.

Last, but not least, El Papa just visited Cuba. He hugged and embraced Raúl Castro, a man who has executed priests, harassed religious leaders, and closed Christian schools years ago. Did he call the Castro brothers un-Christian?

Pope Francis is a good man, but he needs a few people around him to protect him from himself.

Vicar of Christ my ***. I think Trump's christianity claims are comical and so transparent but so is the Pope's hypocrisy. Francis needs to STFU. Who made him the spokesperson for the Almighty anyways but a coven of bishops who are either child molesters or covered for one?

Without getting into catholic doctrine on a porn board, fuck the catholic church and their pope.

It does not only takes bible reading aand praying to be a christian. It also takes acting as one, doing what Jesus did instead of doing the opposite

Then the king will say to those at his right hand, "Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me."
Matthew 25:34-36


He said also to the one who had invited him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous."
Luke 14:12-14

Jesus answered, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead. By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side. In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he travelled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion, came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, 'Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.' Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbour to him who fell among the robbers?"
He said, "He who showed mercy on him."
Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."
Luke 10:30-37

Building walls, refusing to take refugees, not allowing muslim in the country, these are not exactly christian values. This is not exactly what Jesus would do.
When, confronted to an issue, you do the exact opposite of what Jesus would do, you cannot claim to be a christian.


Pope Francis hugged Castro ? Well, Castro evolved, he now on the right path, the path of peace, of negociations. I couldn't say the same about Trump (or any of the GOP candidates).

This Pope makes libs all tingly in their nether regions until he tells them they are going to burn in hell for murdering fetuses.

There is a reason most if not all Popes have been European before him, this Third World Pope is clueless and should be doing nothing else but running an orphanage in Buenos Aires.

Yet another distraction used by The Pope and The Catholic Church so they don't have to deal with their pedophilia scandal. I might agree that Donald Trump is not the finest example of Christianity but how Christian is it to cover for and raise money for the defense of child rapists? When you donate to the Church you have no idea if the money is used to help the poor or deny justice to the innocent. The pews haven't become empty because people have given up on God but that people have given up on the Church.

Yeah, his predecessor was so much better

Oops, I almost forgot : US right-wingers love nazis, Trump's popularity proves it.

Oh you mean young white supremacists like Robert C. Byrd that Obama eulogized fondly at his state funeral?

I guess his were only youthful indiscretions.

The instances of Roman Catholic priests molesting children is abominable but the rate is no higher than any other denomination and less than the occurrence in the religion of peace. That's no defense and any case should be thoroughly investigated and prosecuted. The bishops involved in the cover ups should be excommunicated and also prosecuted for their conspiracy.

But yes, Jorge shouldn't have weighed in on a current election nor commented on border walls considering he has a sixty foot wall surrounding his entire country.

Shit. Sorry Ace. I have a problem with the pope(s) and the church with the scandals and doctrinally but that doesn't extend to individual catholics, many of whom and have been throughout history fine upstanding citizens, heroes, and got damn American treasures quite frankly, present company included along with immediate family members.
