Pope Francis has slammed conservative American Christians as “backwards” during a conversation with a group of Jesuits in an interview published Monday, and called for more progressivism in the church in the US.
Asked to provide an example during his interview, the pope said Americans must pay less attention to “sins of the flesh” and more to other sins.
“It is clear that today the issue of homosexuality is very strong, and the sensitivity in this regard changes according to historical circumstances,” he said.

“But what I don’t like at all, in general, is that we look at the so-called ‘sin of the flesh’ with a magnifying glass, just as we have done for so long for the sixth commandment,” he said. “If you exploited workers, if you lied or cheated, it didn’t matter, and instead sins below the waist were relevant.”
“I am not afraid of sexualized society,” the pope declared. “No, I am afraid of how we relate to it.”
The pope slammed Americans for their conservatism, demanding the church in America take on a more progressive stance.
“The situation is not easy in the United States where there is a very strong reactionary attitude,” the pontiff said. “It is organized and shapes the way people belong, even emotionally.”
“I would like to remind those people that ‘backwardism’ is useless and we need to understand that there is an appropriate evolution in the understanding of matters of faith and morals,” the pope declared to the Jesuit community present in Portugal during the recent celebration of World Youth Day.
As examples, Francis said that “today it is a sin to possess atomic bombs” and “the death penalty is a sin,” but “it was not so before,” in reference to changes he has made in Church teaching.
Doctrine “progresses, expands, and consolidates with time and becomes firmer, but is always progressing,” he continued.
“Our understanding of the human person changes with time and our consciousness also deepens,” he stated. “The other sciences and their evolution also help the Church in this growth in understanding.”
“The view of Church doctrine as monolithic is erroneous,” he added.
“The problems that moralists have to examine today are very serious, and to deal with them they have to take the risk of making changes,” he asserted.
I will never listen to a commie piece of schiff pope. Hey pope, stick to molesting children and leave us decent folks alone.
You might think your decent but it doesn’t mean anyone else does
STFU moron, no one cares what the Aussie pedophile thinks.
Don’t care, especially what a coward too ashamed to sign their real name thinks. Go away loser.
The “Pope” hails from the Synagogue of Satan, where anti-natural and anti-Christian morals roost.
How did that happen? Over Centuries of people blindly following the Church.
Confucius said in 500 BC that Marriage is between a Man and a Woman, the purpose is to Make the Next Generation. The Pope doesn’t Believe this, so the Pope is a Heretic.
It happened because they crucified anyone who didn’t accept their system .They did that for centuries and then they burned them and they had lots of other methods of “converting” people especially Jews. Eg Holocausts .They didn’t just tell them to get jabbed or else .
Romans didn’t crucify anyone, they impaled their criminals, just like a scorpion on a stick.

That is what they did to Jesus and any other criminals they punished. And most of the time they only put the head on a stick. Romans also used the CORNU. Look it up. Not pleasant, and totally a sexual torture in nature.
2nd century followers knew what happened to Jesus, he had a wooden pole put up his rear end, and with another pole tied to his arms which was used to lower him onto the torture stake. Most victims only lasted hours, but one poor bastard lasted a whole week, begging anyone passing by to kill him.
The bible explains exactly what happened to people who were impaled. Read about Mordecai and Haman in book of Esther. “So they impaled Haman on the pole he had set up for Mordecai.” It was an excellent story. But the pole was 75ft high, and they lifted him up by the pole tied to his arm, then lowered Haman onto the 75ft pole to impale him.
It’s true Vill Clinton and George Bush had those boys on the track murdered for witnessing their drug trafficking crimes but nothing happened that Nothing happens about the Clinton body count Nothing happens about ection fraud and drug trafficking and illegal arms sales and taking bribes and lying through their teeth to the people and corrupted newspapers or anything BUT bill gets kicked out because Monica said she gave him oral sex and he said she didn’t .That’s hypocrisy of the highest order .And that thorny Daniels with her blackmails ok but the victim of the blackmails made the culprit ?The DOJ needs jailing .
Drop ded PEDO!
Pagan Rome Became Papal Rome To Survive And Brought ALL her paganism with her…she IS A LIAR…
The fourth largest asset class owned by the Vatican is founding industry and controlling stocks in a narrow class of industries related to arms manufacture, military support and pharmaceuticals including strategic financial relationships with the international trade of illegal drugs.
2. Through these strategic investments, the Roman Catholic Church is by far the single largest arms dealer, profiteer from conflict, profiteer from the growth of the pharmaceutical industry as well as single largest recipient of illegal drug money of any organization in the history of the World….
ALSO, brings to mind This Very Important Information GIVEN TO Us: “the seven BLASPHEMOUS (a religious term) heads/mountains” Of REVELATION 12,13 &17 –
The “seven Blasphemous heads” – Revelation 12 & 13, a.k.a., “seven hills/mountains” – Revelation 17:9, on the composite beast of Revelation 12, 13 & 17 Represent the World’s Seven False (From their beginning) and Corrupted religious systems = the religious side of “Babylon Teaching doctrines of devils (LIES)” (“See” REVELATION 12:3,9 for the identity of whose hand/”spirit” (HEBREWS 1:7; EPHESIANS 2:1,2), is in this 7 Blasphemous headed & 10 horned human hand puppet “beast”). GOD USES The Number 7 To Indicate ‘Completeness, Fullness’ – By THE END TIME (DANIEL 12:4), ALL “7 heads” Will And Have appeared on the World Scene: Atheism, Heathenism, Judaism, Islam, Eastern Mysticism, Catholicism (the 6th head that was “wounded” in 1798), and Protestantism (Protestantism is the one that “must remain for only a little while” compared to the others – REVELATION 17:10. “The eighth king” is Satan and The 10 Kingdoms Are Ready per the Club of Rome.
Also Note the Ten Kingdoms/Toes Recorded In Daniel 2:42-44 – VERY RELEVANT TO OUR TIME:
42And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong (“iron”) and partly brittle (“clay”). 43As you saw the iron mixed with clay, so the peoples will mix with one another, but will not hold together any more than iron mixes with clay. (Brings to mind Unenforced Immigration & Naturalization Laws for Globalization)
44In The Days of those kings, THE GOD OF HEAVEN WILL SET UP A KINGDOM THAT WILL NEVER BE DESTROYED, NOR WILL IT BE LEFT TO ANOTHER people. IT WILL SHATTER ALL these kingdoms AND BRING them TO AN END BUT WILL ITSELF STAND FOREVER.” …
Well Black rock which is Saturn worship, which is Romes real religion, Solar Invictus etc, church and Crown, controls Raytheon which is from england, I think, and that’s the biggest with Boeing and Lockheed, both definitely English exported to America, for appearances sake , as usual coming 2nd and third. And Black Rock which is the name for Saturn, or as Bowie called it the Black Star. But yes I’d believe they created Black rock really. Not Fink anymore than the Bauer family made themselves the Rothschilds or or Lord Rothermere created himself.

Look the Jesuits came into power by being the most evil murdering torturing “moralistic” imaginable.
They need to apologise for their crimes against humanity before they are allowed to continue to act in judgement of anyone. And rhe Catholics too The evil as Satan Redemptionists and their brasseries for example. In fact the entire history of Rome is just a quagmire of crimes against humanity.
And about 40 years ago I found a tiny snippet tucked away on some obscure page in the newspaper where the then pipe apologised, saying there were no witches. But that’s the only apology I’ve ever seen from them. They killed millions over centuries Millions one way or another. And the Jesuits too. And the British empire needs to apologise for its genocide of Tasmanias, its invasions of Africa its slave trade from there its mass murders in India its bombing of China, its thefts of patented products, its drug trafficking its introduction of tobacco to the empire, and a huge criminal wrap. Sheet as long as your arms and legs all added together One of the world’s biggest serial criminals too.
Francis is the brother of satan. Burn baby burn.
Another day and another thread filled with the mind numbing ramblings of Anonymous the Aussie pedophile.

El Popo and his bum chum Schwaab – yeah yeah…
PRIME MINISTER VLADIMIR PUTIN WILL NOT TOLERATE that which he deems will undermine the “moral foundations” of Russian society.
For on May 16, 2009, the latest attempt to hold a Gay Pride Parade in Moscow was over before it began.
Moscow police broke up a crowd of gay activists preparing to protest, arresting at least 24 of them, including the event’s organizers, of whom, some were outside agitators from Europe. The activists had gathered in front of Moscow State University in the south-western part of the city.
As the protesters began chanting: “We want the right for same-sex marriage!” – Vladimir Putin instructed the mayor of Moscow, Yury Luzhkov, to send in riot police to make the arrests.
Putin did allow, however, an earlier rally in the center of Moscow to take place. This rally was made up of a large number of demonstrators from various Russian Orthodox Christian organizations who denounced homosexuality and lesbianism.
He supports pedophilia . He’s truly evil.
