And he spoke to the Regime in Tehran telling them this about Jesus as the king of peace; hopefully, reminding them that after 47 years of being a major supporter of global terrorism, much of it claimIng American lives and that Their ALLAH, to whom they submit to is a facsimile of Jesus because their supposed “ religion is one promoting peace”, right?
This Pooe disgraces his position and is a shame as an Augustinian!

@soar2newhighs Agreed.

I think the Pope forgot to read Exodus 17:8-13. God used Moses and his arms and the "staff of God" in his hand to help the Israelites defeat the Amalekites. When Moses' arms were tired, the Amalekites would begin to win. Aaron and Hur sat Moses down and he raised both of his arms. The Israelites won the battle of Rephidim.

Other examples include George Washington praying to God before crossing the Delaware and defeating the British at Trenton. General George S. Patton prayed for good weather during the battle of the Bulge in December 1944.

@4meAndyou As a lifelong Catholic, I can tell you that the Church has unfortunately fallen by the waist side for a number of years now. I would take President Trump's and America's any day over anything the Vatican says. Believe me, the majority of rank and file Catholics feel the same way as we do. I also take it Pope Leo has never heard or listened to The Battle Hymn of the Republic before. [media=https://youtu.be/VCR4ZTY5ijM?si=ZNLSbaUiCs3RFXzl]

@Barefooter25 Those lyrics alone should have been taught to him in school. Obviously they were not.

@Barefooter25 Listening to that brings tears to my eyes.
I'm sure the Pope means well...bless his socialist heart

@BizSuitStacy As a former Catholic, it is upsetting to ME personally to see the POPE cherry-pick scripture to make a political point.

God called David a man after his own heart, but yet he wouldn’t allow him to build the temple because he was a man of war, but yeah, he listened to his prayers and his psalms inspired by God are written in the Bible

@Jake966 And he made David a KING. A KING for the ages.

Maybe pentagon pete should get rid of a few more chaplains
Sounds like Leo has been paying more attention to David Axelrod and James Carville than either the bible or the realities of history..

Go through St Augustine's "just war" and what does best is to explain why the Crusades lasted 200+ Years and how England and France were able to make their wars with each other last 100+ years. And wasn't WW2 really a continuation of WW1 with a pause for Germany to rearm?

@4meAndyou I understand. I've found that through the years, one tends to see the world as the world actually is. And not as someone else would like the world to be. I was taught growing up that the Catholic church was the beacon of morality, honor and truth. Then I saw the world as it is and realized I was being manipulated. Now I call balls and strikes and left the tribe mentality behind.

@carpediem THAT is probably PART of why I left the church. Disillusionment.

@4meAndyou Amen....
