"Fundamentalism is always a tragedy. It is not religious, it lacks God, it is idolatrous," the Argentine pontiff told journalists on the plane during his return from a trip to Africa. Francis said Islam was not the only religion to suffer from violent extremists, such as the ones behind the deadly attacks in Paris which were claimed by the Islamic State. "We Catholics, we have a few, even many fundamentalists. They believe they know absolute truth and corrupt others," he said, adding: "I can say this because this is my Church".

The leaders of the Catholic Church has been misguided for hundreds of years and each generation feeds the next.... Satan has been in direct control since 1963 and a good number of the cardinals work directly for him.... Not someone or something we would want to trust, but he's not a dummy.

I do... Exactly. He has no interest in the truth, but is willing to equate Christians fundamentalists with rabid Islamists, and then goes on to say that Christians and Muslims are "brothers" (in the same speech). An absolute hypocrite, since he regards evangelical and fundamentalist Christians as heretics. Something else to note which is significant. People like Obama and his administrative lackeys, and now the Pope and the UN, are using the buzz words "violent extremism" to deflect attention away from all the radical Muslim groups, and put the onus on non-Muslims instead. "Violent extremism" means there should be gun-control (except for ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
