For the first time in our nation's history...

Here’s the short answer on how you can get a ticket to hear Pope Francis speak to Congress on Sept. 24: Ask your representative or senator.
But if you want a seat inside the House chamber for the pontiff’s historic address, good luck: members of the House of Representatives and Senate have each been allotted only one guest ticket for inside the chamber.
You may have better luck with a ticket for a telecast outside the Capitol building.... How to get a ticket to hear Pope Francis speak to Congress

gather with members of your campus, parish, alumni, or other community for a Pope2Congress Watch Party on September 24th for a fun morning of reflection and conversation in your community and online. The address will begin at 9:20 AM Eastern Time and will be available via CSPAN and internet livestream. Host a Watch Party when Pope Francis addresses Congress

Vote in the poll for subjects you think he will talk to our leadership about. Cast your votes not how YOU want him to talk, but what you think he actually will talk about given that he is the Big Cheese for the catholic religion and all that they believe in and stand for.

Discuss.

I've been getting emails from my Congressman for weeks about this, offering a lottery for a ticket. Too bad I can't go.

I think the Pope, being in America, will probably focus on the income gap.

I imagine the Right will focus on the idea that Obama will be wearing a jihadi suicide vest.
 
This is exciting news.
Hmmm...maybe.

I have a feeling the Pope's visit isn't going to be as politically-correct and comfortable for some as they might initially think. I think he's going to step on toes on both sides of the aisle; maybe even in a big way. After all, it's his job to see that God's will on earth is carried out, no matter what the contemporary trends of the day demand of decorum.

And he should, along with climate change.

This Pope is almost a Christian, let's hope he speaks as one? Should he the reaction will be instantaneous, the vast majority of Americans will reject, out of hand, whatever he says...

Do you think he will discuss only venial sins? Or the ones that get you in the slammer for eternity?

ie: will he "keep it light" or will he sieze this one golden chance to "get heavy"?

He will be in a room with 536 of the scummiest people America could scratch together. It will be a golden opportunity to open a can of whoopass and unleash some locusts and a plague.

But he will be his usual nice guy self.

I hope you are wrong. But you are probably right.

Though, if he pusses out on his one chance to make the biggest difference in human worldwide affairs, how will God feel about that? Just sayin'..

I forget where I read in the Bible that the worst punishments of sinners are reserved for those most in the position to make a change but do the least with it out of personal fears, greed, sloth or what have you.
 
And I can guarantee you there will be a small group of so-called Indians waving their signs around begging the Pope to not go through with making Father Serra a saint.

And he will ignore them.
 
Vatican Advisor says U.S. Declaration of Independence is Outmoded - KEEP the FAITH

Pope Francis will directly challenge the "American idea" of God-given rights in the Declaration of Independence, says Jeffrey Sachs, a top advisor for the Vatican. Sachs is also a special advisor to the United Nations and director of earth Institute at Columbia University.

And from another article - Vatican Adviser Claims Declaration of Independence Is Obsolete, Reveals Plan By Global Leaders For US - Page 2 of 2 - Truth And Action



When Pope Frances comes to the U.S. in September he will directly challenge the “American idea” of God-given rights embodied in a founding document of our country, the Declaration of Independence, according to top Vatican adviser Jeffrey Sachs.

Sachs, who is also a special advisor to the UN and directs the Earth Institute at Columbia University, may have inadvertently revealed a global game plan in play by world leaders.

Pope Francis has already claimed that capitalism is the new tyranny and that Europe should open its borders to Muslims as Islam is a religion of peace. Sach’s claim that the Pope is on the way to the US to attack our sovereignty along with Obama doesn’t seem to far-fetched.

The United States, Sachs writes in the Jesuit publication, America, is “a society in thrall” to the idea of unalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But the “urgent core of Francis’ message” will be to challenge this “American idea” by “proclaiming that the path to happiness lies not solely or mainly through the defense of rights but through the exercise of virtues, most notably justice and charity.”

In these extraordinary comments, which constitute a frontal assault on the American idea of freedom and national sovereignty, Sachs has made it clear that he hopes to enlist the Vatican in a global campaign to increase the power of global or foreign-dominated organizations and movements.

Sachs takes aim at the phrase, which comes from America’s founding document, the United States Declaration of Independence, that:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

These rights sound good, Sachs writes, but they’re not enough to guarantee the outcome the global elites have devised for us.

Global government, he suggests, must make us live our lives according to international standards of development.

It looks like the Pope is coming to dismantle our Declaration of Independence, strip America of her sovereignty as a nation and install communism through the Global Government One World Order and International law.
Where's Flanders? He is very good at explaining the Globalist agenda, Communism and "International Law".

I think he will talk about people using the Bible to back their fear and hate... We see it here on this board...

The bible is not meant to be used as a way beat people who don't believe in it... But we see people use it to hate gays or minorities,...
While the same people don't read the sections on rich and poor...

To be clear, Ted, no one is beating anyone with the bible. The bible teaches us to speak out against evil and to oppose false doctrine. To defend the faith. This man is a wolf in sheep's clothing. I am letting the people who follow him know that he is not teaching Scripture according to the Bible. We just saw a sample of it from a Catholic on another thread who said the study she attended at her church taught her that sex outside of marriage was not a sin. This is the nonsense that is going on inside the Roman Catholic Church now. It needs to be addressed.

Blah blah blah the Pope is the anti-Christ.

Blah blah blah all Catholics are going to hell, unless they join your version of Christianity.

No. Not my version. I have no version. There is only one way to heaven and Jesus told us what it was. We must be born again. You need to follow the teachings of the King James Bible, Black rook. I agree with you about abortion and other things but on the matter of Catholicism I cannot. I used to be a Catholic. There isn't any salvation in it. It's all works. Salvation is a free gift. You cannot earn it. It is a free gift. Whosoever calls upon the name of the LORD shall be saved. Christ needs no Vicar. This man has appointed himself through the tradition of man and a religion based off of the Bablyonian occult started by Nimrod and Semiramis. Look it up. The history is all there. If I didn't care about you? I wouldn't tell you! I believe you do desire to serve God! You do desire to be pleasing to God! I believe that but I also believe that if you stay in that Roman Catholicism you'll be lost forever. I do not want to see that happen! To you or any other Catholic! I want to see you saved and knowing you'll be in heaven when you leave this earth. I wish you God's best always. I'm not going to discuss this Pope visit any further. It's an act of futility.

I've heard all of this before, and you are ignoring reality when you say that the King James Bible is the only valid Bible when there's hundreds of versions of the Bible to choose from.

Also, what about the billions who do not know how to read English? Are these Christians doomed to hell because they cannot read the King James Bible?

Also, it may interest you to know that the King James Bible is not faithful translation of the Bible. Some passages were changed to be more consistent with Protestant doctrine.

Google

Jeremiah, there are two billion Christians in this world, and only a tiny slice of Christians follow your version of Christianity.
