Pope: Catholics should ask gay people for forgiveness

[Ben Kenobi]

Back then I owned the site. Big difference. You were a douche back then too. Now I don't own it so I can tell you what I really think. Besides, the first thing I learned in school was not to piss off your customers. Something Catholics could learn.

You tell yourself this but you don't really believe it.

If you had just copped to it back then you wouldn't have taken anywhere near as much crap. We are not fooled.

Then why did you say you didn't understand what I was trying to do? If I was wanting to leave a good impression, why would I even bring that up?

You're using your religion as an excuse to treat a whole group of people like people used to treat blacks. Even after you pope tells you not to.
No one is asking the church to marry them, The pope isn't trying to tell the church to marry them. He's just telling you not to be a douche about it.

No, rah - you're using it as a crutch and an excuse.

You get what you give. And in all honesty you don't get enough.

That's what I'm referring to as to the depth of your hatred. You're in so far now that you're washing out your spots.

[Giancarlo]

Oh now you are not only homophobic, but you make fun of people who do drag. You truly are a douchebag.

Disgusting filthy bigot.

[Giancarlo]

Yeah, I guess disgusted is a more accurate word.

And only a loser would treat a person like a second class citizen because of his sexual preference, and even worse insult him by comparing it to alcoholism/disease.

Bingo! He is pure hate. His heart is full of hate. He claims to be Catholic. I would label him pure evil.

[Ming]

Keep trying to change the subject BK... now it's how everybody hates you. But you're ignorant to the hate you show for others... and you justify it with religion

To the original point... Follow the leader of the Church... listen to his message... become a better Christian.
The message was for you... he cares about you and your soul. Take joy that somebody does.

[rah]

His ears are closed because his heart is filled with hate.

And I can't believe he insulted him with a gay/drag joke. That is really low. Even for Ben.

[Ben Kenobi]

everybody hates you

This thread is four people. Giancarlo, Ming, rah and me. All Catholics.

The message was for you... he cares about you and your soul.

There are lots of good, faithful Catholics who care about my soul. They actually work hard to get it right, the first time.

I'm one of the folks fighting in the trenches. I'm glad I've got these folks on my side helping me. Francis is not one of them. He's welcome to join in and pitch in anytime!

I been insulted before so it doesn't really get to me anymore. I am surprised he didn't call me a tranny or something lol.

Ben truly is a hateful insecure little man.

I know who I am. I am proud of being me. It took me years to be comfortable in my own skin.

[Giancarlo]

This thread is four people. Giancarlo, Ming, rah and me. All Catholics.

I'm not Catholic. I already went over this for you.

[Ming]

Listen to the Pope BK... and you too can be saved.

[Ben Kenobi]

Listen to the Pope BK... and you too can be saved

Something you never said when Benedict was pope, Ming.

[Ming]

Never had a bad word for him or Francis... you can't say the same.
You are the one disregarding the Pope's message... not I.

[Ben Kenobi]

Never had a bad word for him or Francis... you can't say the same.

No, I've expressed my frustration with his comments, that's for sure, and I've had to spend a lot of time helping people that are broken try to stay in the boat and not jump out. They hear him and they think, "this is not what I signed up for", and I have to go and help draw them back. Either by waking them up with a large smack or just sitting there and listen to them pour out their frustrations.

If it were just me I'd not care. But that's not the case anymore. And it's always Francis. Everytime.

[giblets]

Ben is gay

[Ming]

Gee... you and your friends didn't sign up for messages of peace and love and not hate.

This whole thread is a testament to why Pope Francis said what he said. His message is important to many like you and your friends.
If peace and love comments have a negative impact on you and your friends, maybe you should all jump ship and find a religion that does suit your hate and bigotry.
Pope Francis isn't the problem...

[giblets]

Ben should try radical islam.
