White House to host 9-hour prayer festival focused on Christian roots of U.S.
Hegseth, Rubio and Johnson are going to speak.
But Iran is the country run by religious fanatics.

Pope Francis:..."All religions are paths to God. I will use an analogy, they are like different
languages that express the divine.”...
Hard to imagine God choosing only those exposed to or reared in Christianity and telling all the other billions of people to 'Take a Hike'...
Our Founding Fathers got it right...America welcomes everyone...regardless of religion...or no religion at all.
“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me"
Satanism is not a path to God.
Pope Francis could have said something akin to that...he didn't...he went out of his way to use an
analogy of different languages expressing respect for one Deity.
For Catholics...Love One Another...and that includes ALL persons...even those who practice other religions.
No one bastardizes the Pope's message quite like you.

Francis' analogy underscored his statement that "All Religions are paths to God"...he meant what he
said. If you think otherwise, share your interpretation/reasoning...
Satanism is a religion. Hardly a path to God.

Face the fact that I'm quoting Pope Francis...word for word. As I asked Jakers...are you
accusing Francis of purposely lying, and that he did not actually believe what was said?...if not, then what is your interpretation?
I quoted Christ. End of discussion.

I’m asking a valid question…what is your interpretation of Pope Francis’ statement?
(no message)
Your heresy is not valid at all.
Are you unable to Google Catholic opinions on this?

I read that commentary before you posted it...(part of Critical Thinking)...in short, you can and
should follow the RCC Catechism and be a faithful Catholic...however, since every person on this planet is a "Child of God", you should...as Pope Francis advised...respect all other religions' who pray to our common God. They have their tenets and rites...we have ours. a'la "Languages" we use to communicate with fellow believers.
Here a video of Pope Francis making his remarks...he is not being ambiguous...he meant what he said.
No you didn't read it before I posted it. That's a lie. You completely ignored the explanation.
You are once again twisting Truth into your personal pretzel logic.
I'm done with your lies and your boring heresies.
Begone, Satan.
Stop for a second...how could you possibly know I didn't read that article beforehand? The answer is
it's impossible...yet you say it anyway...that's dishonest and indicts you as a hypocrite...why do something so foolish and stupid?
Now, back to the issue of Pope Francis' statement that all religions are paths to God...like "Languages"...I posted a video of his statements...does he seem insincere?...is he hiding anything from them?...trying to misinform them as to his 'real beliefs'?...Not in my humble opinion...to me he means what he said.
btw, do you think there are devout Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Buddhists...or for that matter, American Indians, Incas, Celts, Druids, etc., etc...in Heaven? Take an example...Mahatma Gandhi...would you expect to see him in Heaven?...not Catholic...but a good man who spoke a different "Language".
Basic logic. If you read the article, you would not have ignored the points made within.
BTW, Ghandi was not a nice guy at all. No critical thinker would think so.
Begone. I care not to attend your thinking.
You're pulling things out of your ass. You don't speak for Catholics.

Are you accusing Pope Francis of purposely lying?...that he didn't actually believe what he said?...
...if not, let's hear your interpretation of what was said...
I'm accusing you of misrepresenting his words.
(no message)
I get that…hence the request for your interpretation of Pope Francis’ statement…what is it?
(no message)
Clearly a reference to Catechism 843.
Only scum trying to twist his words would read what you're trying to shoehorn it into.
Which...along with "Lumen Gentium"...acknowledges salvation for practitioners of other
religions...why the surprise at Pope Francis' statement?...and more recently, why the focus by this administration on Christianity only?

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof..."
The Trump administration is making a mockery of our Constitution...and the supposed Christians who go along with this are the worse for buying into it.
Ridiculous assertion. No such law has been made.
(no message)
That 1st Amendment expresses the intent that no favoritism be extended by our Federal
Government...i.e. "Separation of Church and State"...
Show me the law that has been made. There is none.
(no message)
Hold on...I'm not claiming that at all...just noting the "Establishment" for the Separation of
Church and State with the 1st Amendment...and all for the purpose of expressing surprise and disapproval for members of this administration to strongly support one religion, when there are clearly many practiced by American citizens. It's an affront to their beliefs and denigrates them.
It is the responsibility of our government to Protect ALL Religions, and treat them EQUALLY...do you disagree with this?...and if so...why?
Another lie. No state religion has been established.
(no message)
No kidding...now, is it right for government officials to organize a 9 hour prayer vigil that
endorses only one religion's values?...given our 1st Amendment's basis for the 'Separation of Church and State'...what say you to that?

Intellectually, I get this. Although fallen away I remain strongly influenced by my childhood faith.
I also feel that our nation's founding and guiding principals were also strongly influenced by Christiam ideals.
HOWEVER, emotionally I feel uncomfortable with public displays of very personal religiosity.
Excellent ! BTW, do you disagree with this, and
what is yr problem ?
Your not so thought out response shows they very hypocritical nature of MAGA

Do you think only MAGA is hypocritical?

Right out of the playbook of MAGA retorts. When you can't respond on topic, make up something off

it's ok. It responded directly to your post. I understand why you can't answer.

Hardly a "death cult." In fact, only one country is run by a cult leader now.
