Lacking What? Talking to members of the Roman academic community Villa Nazareth, Pope Francis stressed last Saturday that he often finds himself in a crisis of faith and that he often has doubts about the Faith. He even claimed that a Christian whose faith does not regularly enter into a crisis – quote – “lacks something”. Francis insulted such a Christian as somebody who is content with some wordliness and who goes on in life in this way.
Wrong: Pope Bergoglio again repeated his fevorino that in the Chinese alphabet the word crisis combines two letters: the one for risk and the one for opportunity. But he was twice wrong. The two words are commonly known as “danger” and “opportunity”, but there is an article on Wikipedia debunking this interpretation altogether.
Comparing a broken leg with a broken arm: Francis further claimed that – quote – “we have turned the values upside down” accusing the Church of refusing an adulterer as baptismal sponsor …More

Truly a Renaissance Man. He embraces man-made global warming, borderless unlimited immigration, contempt for capitalism, mixes socially with socialist/commie dictators (and homos)...who could do better? Let's just give him the Nobel Peace Prize and get it over with. 👌

Dear Jungerheld,

A quote from Lemaître's bio:

“By 1951, Pope Pius XII declared that Lemaître's theory provided a scientific validation for Catholicism. However, Lemaître resented the Pope's proclamation, stating that the theory was neutral and there was neither a connection nor a contradiction between his religion and his theory.[19][20] When Lemaître and Daniel O'Connell, the Pope's science advisor, tried to persuade the Pope not to mention Creationism publicly anymore, the Pope agreed. He persuaded the Pope to stop making proclamations about cosmology.[21] While a devout Roman Catholic, he was against mixing science with religion,[22] though he also was of the opinion that these two fields of human experience were not in conflict.[23]
.

This above quote is important for at least 2 reasons. First, Lemaître recognized that the Church was not equipped to seriously deal with the specialized issue of the expansion of the universe in that it would, in fact, detract from Lemaître's purely scientific theory. 2) Pius XII agreed.

Could churchmen exhibit the same degree of basic common sense and humility today?
