The Head "Mackerel Snapper" Has Landed!!

Religion is absolutely a construct of man, a way to exert control by taking advantage of that very need to believe in something. Originally Posted by WombRaider

That's very good. You can adhere to that if you wish.

Again, you fall victim to your eternal struggle; the dichotomy. What I personally believe is irrelevant to someone else's beliefs. I can simultaneously believe that the pope and his religion are bullshit and everyone is free to make up their own mind on that count. He may make salient points on social issues but it does not make his religion any more real or palatable to me personally.

So you are a hypocrite. As we all knew. It's ok to believe in a sky daddy, so long as you're a liberal.

I'm not sure I understand the outrage. He leads a religious denomination. They aren't making political policy. It's no different than the religious fundamentals and what they're doing in the US, except they would love to affect political change based on their religious beliefs.

Regardless, The Pope will still be the Left's Useful Idiot.

He will probably be surprised when he gets back to The Vatican to hear that Homosexuality, Gay Marriage, Abortion, and a host of other agenda items championed by the Liberal/Socialist/Progressive/Democrat Left are now acceptable life style choices sanctioned by The Catholic Church.

I suspect the minute he left Cuba, the Communist Party sent out news flashes to all over the Island saying....."Pope Sanctions Castro Regime. Here he is sitting cordially with El Commandante". Originally Posted by Jackie S

Supporting a common principle with Castro, Obama, Bush, or anyone else does not in any way imply condoning/agreeing with other beliefs those people may have. And being seen with them does not either. You seem to be tarring with a very wide brush.
