Everybody is a Pope

The phrase "everyone's a comedian" doesn't mean that everyone is hilarious. It means that everyone thinks they're. Just like the phrase "everybody is a Pope." People may think they can do a better job than Pope Francis. Take for instance  l NY Post's  Maureen Callahan who opines that the Pope's "slam of selfish pet parents proves he never owned a pet.' Or National Catholic Reporter's 

Flora Tang who writes that  "Pope's comments are about more than pets. They reinforce the church's narrow view on reproduction and marriage."  Tang describes self as "a doctoral student in theology and peace studies at the University of Notre Dame. Her research focuses on post-traumatic sacramental theology, Asian American literature and queer theology." 

For the record, Pope Francis makes it clear in his Laudato Si that "Since everything is interrelated, concern for the protection of nature, is incompatible with the justification of abortion" 

Fox News Robert Sirico writes that "Pope Francis should let Catholics pray like Catholics" 

The implications are that these folks think they can teach Pope Francis a thing or two, and shepherd to Catholic flock better than the Pope.  By the way, this flock is a force so powerful, that  China's Xi Jinping fears it more than Russia or the United States.

After all, China does not view the USA or Russia as her biggest threat but Christianity in general & Pope Francis in particular.   Simple math:  There are over 2.6 billion Christians in the world but only 1,4 billion Chinese

Earlier this month, Xi told a conference in Beijing, described in official reports as the National Work Meeting on Religious Affairs, that all religions in China needed to embrace the Communist Party, expanding on one of his long-held policies.


“(We) must maintain the party’s essential direction on religious work, we must continue our country’s direction for the sinicization of religion, we must continue to take the large numbers of religious believers, and unite them around the party and the government,” Xi said

But it is not surprising. More lies have been aimed at destroying the Roman Catholic Church than any other institution in the world. So much that even most Catholics believe the lies they were taught in high school or have seen on T.V. and social media and sadly the secular media will continue its attacks.  Everybody is a Pope!
