Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - GMDino - 10-02-2015 http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/10/02/445236066/vatican-details-pope-s-meeting-with-kentucky-clerk-kim-davis?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=202502 Quote:Vatican Details Pope's Meeting With Kentucky Clerk Kim Davis RE: Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - GodHatesBengals - 10-02-2015 Yeah. I thought something was off about this from the moment I heard it. Kim Davis's 15 minutes are almost up. Time to (hire somebody else to) write the book, get a couple Hannity interviews, make bank and retire. RE: Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - StLucieBengal - 10-02-2015 So he did meet her... With others. How is this any different than before? Did anyone actually think the pope spent hours 1 on 1 with her? Sounds like people just assumed then tried to run the militant gays after him and trash his visit. They didn't need to attack him on that, he actually wasted time on climate change. Which is pretty comical. RE: Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - michaelsean - 10-02-2015 So why was she one of the dozen who met him, and not Bob from Tulsa? She was there for some reason. RE: Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - Belsnickel - 10-02-2015 Yeah, I'm calling shenanigans. She was chosen because of the approval by the Vatican of her current battle. The Vatican is now trying to pull on the reins a bit but the image is pretty clear. A non-Catholic figure as controversial as Davis was chosen for one reason, it's not hard to see.

Because her people said this: Quote:"Just knowing the pope is on track with what we're doing, and agreeing, you know, kind of validates everything." She turned it into propaganda. RE: Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - BmorePat87 - 10-02-2015 from what I read, these guests were chosen by the Vatican ambassador to the US. The only person with a private meeting was a former student of the Pope. Either way, I hope people realize that this Pope isn't some liberal reformer nor is he some stalwart of conservatism. Catholicism doesn't fit into one side of the US political spectrum. Francis just doesn't come off as sith lord like as Benedict. He still has the same beliefs.

But the problem with admitting this is that some (mostly conservative) people would then have to face the fact that their church accepts the science behind climate change, something that Faux News and their other brainwashers have taught them they can never accept. And as usual, their political brainwashing trumps their religious brainwashing, so the Pope loses. It's not news that the Catholic church is against gay marriage, nor is it news that they believe a lot of untrue crap about the world they live in.

I know it's not news. You know it's not. A lot of others think he is cool with it now. RE: Kim Davis' meeting with the Pope a farce.... - Belsnickel - 10-02-2015 Another narrative the Vatican is trying to put out there: http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/vatican-confirms-pope-met-with-gay-student-partner/ar-AAf1wU3?ocid=fbmsn Quote:VATICAN CITY (AP) — The Vatican on Friday distanced Pope Francis from Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk at the center of the U.S. gay marriage debate, saying she was one of dozens of people the pope greeted as he left Washington and that their encounter "should not be considered a form of support of her position."

News is not a priority.

Right? The Pope is a politician. News to: right-wingers that wanted another Hitler Youth, liberal Catholics who wanted Bernie Sanders in a robe, and absolutely nobody else.

Talking about the family unit. Mother, father, kids. The less of them the worse off we all are as a society.

Just like countless other things that society pushes. Successful marriages, between gay and straight couples who care for each other and their children, strengthen the family unit. Divorce is what destroys it. People like Kim Davis has destroyed multiple families. |
