Pope Francis accused of heresy

<< < (2/2)

DarkPhoenix:
Um, yeah.  Pope Francis' "liberal views" are what is causing your bad press, guys.  It can't have anything to do with your systematic acceptance and covering up of YEARS of child molestation, can it?

Well, in fairness, this happens in most other organisations, too (see the Australian Royal Commission). It's just that religions make a (baseless) claim to be the bastions of morality.

But if you read the Pennsylvania Grand Jury report, they note that they saw plenty of files on other stuff, like financial malfeasance and sexual encounters between priests and adults. I'd love to see investigations into those, because you could put people away on the former and I bet some of the latter were not consensual.

Didn't Jesus say something about pulling the log out of your eye before you talk about the speck in someone else's?

Yes, but this is the Catholic Church we're talking about, Bastion of All Morality, Supreme Intervener Between God and Man.

Kanzenkankaku:
conservatives who don't care about poor people, non-christians and the environment were always the real heretics.
