Pope still a dumb-ass.
Pope Francis said on Saturday that there’s a global war trying to destroy marriage, an institution which he described as God’s most beautiful creation.
Obviously, Pope Esse doesn't know some of the married couples I do because divorce was the best thing that ever happened to a lot of them.
“Today, there is a global war trying to destroy marriage… they don’t destroy it with weapons, but with ideas. It’s certain ideological ways of thinking that are destroying it…we have to defend ourselves from ideological colonization,” he said.
I'm sure he had a 1:1 prop replica of the cross somewhere he attached himself to before he read that part.
Anyhow, today's Satan comes in the form of:
Gender theory or ideology instead refers to the idea that “sex” is what a person is biologically, determined by a configuration of chromosomes, hormones, reproductive units, and internal and external anatomy. Gender is what the person believes himself or herself to be.
Gender theorists say that people should be able to identify as male, female, in-between, neither or both, and discourage the stereotypical gender-based divisions, such as dolls for girls and trucks for boys.
His argument is mainly that god didn't make it that way, so fuck everyone else.
He added that even though he understands that when things become difficult, or there are “temptations,” things are resolved through the road of divorce. “You find someone, I find someone, and we’ll both begin again. Who pays? Both, but more, God pays! Because God is the one who made them one, and when they divorce they dirty what God has made.”
Fuck you and your fucked up, stupid hat, you pretentious douche. When two people who got married for idiotic reasons realize they maybe shouldn't have done that ... well, fuck you both for life. Enjoy your sham of a relationship and probable string of affairs on both sides. We must do this because the almighty's ego can't handle that we disagree with his equivalent of an e-harmony pairing.
Oh, and by the way, don't you even fucking THINK of discussing these things with your fellow Christians.
A seminarian had asked Francis about ecumenism, meaning inter-Christian dialogue. The pope answered saying that the abstract study of ecumenism should be left to theologians, while Catholics should instead focus on being friends with their Orthodox neighbors.
“Be open, be a friend. ‘But I must do everything to convert them!’ There’s a great sin against ecumenism: proselytism,” he said, adding that they’re “our brothers and sisters.”
Ecumenism, he said, is being friends, walking together, doing charitable work together and praying for each other.
You know what horseshit this reeks of?
Scholars affiliated to the Salafi and Wahhabi sects argue for an exclusive, literal definition that entails anything not specifically performed or confirmed by the Prophet.
You may recognize those two branches of Islam as being some of the most extreme and suicide-prone in the world today. They firmly believe in not thinking about their faith or trying to pull it out of the Dark Ages, which seems to be exactly what Pope Esse is encouraging.
