Not one mention by the ignoranti of South-American-style liberation theology with its premise of 'preferential option for the poor' that Pope Francis accepts. Can't imagine their, the illiterati, outrage at the poor being the privileged channel of God's grace and the Pope's 'real name' being Jorge Mario Bergoglio, not Frank Pope.

So they love the Poors and the pope is just misguided.<br /><br />It has as much basis in fact as claims of ice ages comething, and an equal amount of basis in logic (even if you take the axioms as true and treat the whole thing as a mathematical exercise you don't get to this conclusion). But as long as you don't think too hard, it works well as a slogan.numerobisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-3956729835506016302015-04-30T20:53:52.163+10:002015-04-30T20:53:52.163+10:00Yes, what's your question?

Simultaneously. This is about the most telling sign of how broken denial is.<br /><br />Two simultaneously contradictory positions held, well, simultaneously. Bonkers, huh?! <br /><br />Though, if you look at it from the reference point of their being, well, let's face it, just plain mean-spirited folks who are prepared to embrace any flimsy position that helps bolster their keen attachment to the Jack Principle - now the key Article of Faith of the Right - the contradiction miraculously disappears!<br /><br />No wonder a Pope who doesn't seem to think God is his investment advisor, and who apparently believes that if the (purported) values of the New Testament tell us anything at all, they tell us this is precisely the kind of issue Christians should be taking on specifically because it hurts the poor the most rattles them!
