White Smoke is Seen - A new pope is chosen!

[Incorruptible]

He probably is saying that, but he's still full of shit. I will stop criticizing the Vatican for their covering up of the pedophilia of some priests as soon as they come completely clean about it and stop covering it up!

If I wanted to attack Christians I would've mentioned Christians.

So then maybe I should attack all gay people and stereotype them for the actions of a tiny minority of gays

 

[Londo_Jowo]

The Catholics around the world will be happy and celebrate a new Pope.

The haters on the other hand will continue to hate the Pope/Catholic Church.

Both of which are seen in this thread.

A lot of people do for religious purposes. I do only because the Pope is a very power political figure. John Paul III rocked the world. I wonder what the new one will do and how he will act.

Maybe you should attack all Muslim people for the actions of a few... Wait... Never mind, you've got that under control.

 

[cybrsage]

Funny didn't see you telling incorruptible to create a new thread about christian bashing.

He did no bashing.

Its a sad state of affairs when pedophilia will always be on topic with discussing catholic church and its leadership.

It is not, stop trolling the thread.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

This is a moment of significance for millions of innocent people as well. Can't we leave the nonsense to appropriate threads for once? Just let this be about celebrating the choice for those people.

Sure, go ahead. It's not analogous to this situation, though... because there is no massive cover-up. There is no history of cover-up.

It would be nice to have a thread where Christians aren't attacked.

Christians werent attacked, only catholics.

Catholics are Christians.

Let's see... who among the posters in this thread was banned in the not-too-distant past and only very recently allowed back...

Not me.

No.

and yet, your first post in this thread was absolutely a huge troll.

No but he went off pope topic to admonish perceived bashing, same thing really. off topic is off topic.

For you its not for a lot it is, I didn't troll the thread merely responded to incorruptible trolling it.

But in the spirit of keeping this on the topic as you perceive it, Ill stick to the strict pope topic.

I sure hope whomever they choose as the new pope does something drastic to counter all of the negative press the church has gotten over its involvement with pedophilia.

Which pope do you think would be most likely to help the church in this regard?

I agree. Congratulations to all Catholics on having a new Pope. Wondering if the new Pope will be anything like Pope John Paul II

There you go, and that is a good thing to hope for. I also how whoever becomes Pope goes after those who break the law and turn them over for justice.

You do realize that 80% of the priests were engaging in homosexual molestation right?

So? You think the gay community supports pedophilia? Here's a clue for you: it doesn't.. in any way, shape, or form.

 

[cybrsage]

Please stop sullying the thread with gay and pedophilia bashing/talk. This is not about that. If you want to do that, create your own threads for it.

 

[Doc Savage Fan]

I'm sure they're glad they can finally get back to covering up pedophile priests now that the pope election business is done.

Is it not true that a vast majority of the abuse was of a homosexual nature?

That's not the point.

Bergoglio.
