Pope Says Trump Not A Christian

[OldLady]

The Pope threw the first punch. He is the aggressor in this exchange. I hope people recognize this fact.

This is what the Pope said:
"And then, a person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not in the gospel. As far as what you said about whether I would advise to vote or not to vote, I am not going to get involved in that. I say only that this man is not Christian if he said things like that. We must see if he said things in that way and in this I give the benefit of the doubt."
This is an ATTACK? A punch? The Pope is an Aggressor? Who's being a candy assed whiner this time?

He is using his position of Authority to argue against ANY limitations on immigration into the US.

That is an attack.

His spin does not hide that, not if you spend a second thinking about the ramifications of his message.

No, that is not what the Pope said. Go back and read it again, more slowly this time, please.

My question is, is the Pope a Christian? Only God knows.

As a Protestant Evangelical might say...

No, the Pope isn't a Christian; he's a Catholic!

Catholics are the original Christians....you others are johnny come lately's

 

[Flopper]

Trump just responded to the Pope. He said for any religious leader to remark about another man's faith is disgraceful especially since he has not remarked against Obama's faith. Trump is absolutely correct on this. The only one who knows about any man's faith is God. The Pope is not God.

Pretty much Trump's standard response to any criticism.

Do you agree with him?

It's ******* hilarious to watch all these pious cock suckers protest that no man can know what's in Donald Trump's heart.......when they've spent so much of the past eight years proclaiming to know what Barrack Obama truly believes. What a bunch of assholes.

You asshole...we judge them by their deeds...what they've done. Obabble failed his mission. Trump fulfilled his.

And what might that mission be? Making 9 billion dollars selling condos to millionaires, running casinos, having a string ex-wives, and sex scandals, not exactly evidence of one's devotion to Christ. Yet Trump says, "I'm an evangelical". " I'm a Christian." He also says he doesn't have time to go to church but tries to go on Christmas and Easter.

He has devoted his entire life to making money often at the expense of his creditors and investors. Donald Trump has not served God, his country, his fellowman, or anyone except Donald Trump. A Christian? hardly.

For Christians that is indeed an insult. Why would the pope even go there unless he wanted to share his views that Trump is not a Christian: "Beware! We have a pope that sticks his nose where it doesn't belong when he doesn't even know if the quote is valid."

Mexicans have no right to emigrate to the US.

The Pope is an asshole.

Spoken with all the depth and eloquence of typical Trump followers.

Mexicans do NOT have the Right to emigrate to the US.

For the Pope to condemn Trump because he wants to build a wall is the act of an Asshole.

My words were true.

Actually they DO have the right to LEGALLY emigrate to the US. Apparently, someone forgot to add the word LEGALLY to the Mexican lexicon...

LOL, true, we leave in more Mexicans than anyone else.

But those, like the asshole Pope, who complaint about the very idea of a Wall, are unhappy that we don't let them ALL IN.

And that is the position of someone who is our enemy.

Oh, I understand your position. According to the Pope, the US should allow ALL Syrian refugees into this country, regardless of whether or not they have been properly screened. He says that it is the Chriatian thing to do - and it may well be.

So then, my question to El Pappa, is this: when will the Vatican begin admitting those same people into Vatican City?

The US has bent over backwards thousands of times for various countries and peoples throughout the world. What has the Vatican done?

 

[BluesLegend]

When the Catholic church sells all of its holdings and distributes their wealth to the people, call me.

His denies that Trump can be a Christian because he wants to build a Wall.

By those standards the simple act of trying to enforce limitations on immigration is unchristian.

That's a pretty clear condemnation.

Thanks for the explanation. You have a point, but the Pope was asked by a reporter about Trump. He didn't put it in his sermon--or whatever Catholics call it--did he?

interesting extrapolation.... of course, it has no basis in reality.

NO NO NO NO NO! He denies Trump can be a Christian if he refuses to also build bridges! Do you ever go to Church at all? This is about being a humanitarian, not a Democrat or Republican.

It makes one wonder what he said to the Mexican President...whose fault it is that a wall must be built.

Wow, you are quite good at judging. A string of ex wives?=2. Does that disqualify him from the presidency? How many people in this country made wrong choices for marriage partners?
Sex scandals didn't stop Kennedy from being a decent president, nor Clinton. There are plenty if Christians who do not attend church regularly. They, as I, feel man has desecrated the church and it's nothing more than hypocrites than get a rush with church politics and talk badly about other church members. Hardly Christ like.

And all Mexicans.

Basically anyone that can make it here.

And I bet that if pressed he wouldn't be against people helping illegal immigrants make it here.

He has no concern for the interests of this nation or it's citizens.

He is pandering to the Third World masses.

One thing about this Pope - he is good at "pandering"

America is the most globally involved and culturally and diplomatically connected nation on the planet.

It is not credible that the Pope does not know that.

We have all the "bridges" we need to the rest of the world.

What we need to take action on is protecting ourselves.

The Pope is being an asshole, and using his position to undermine and attack the interests of America and Americans.

 

[SeniorChief_Polock]

This has NOTHING to do with Obama. But If a reporter asked him, he might reply.

You think he's man enough to admit he's a shit-eating Muslim?
I don't.
