When Catholics are more honest than they intend to be

[Pastor Isaac Peters]

From the JYT:

VATICAN CITY — Pope John XXIII was the rotund Italian pontiff with a common touch, who told jokes, embraced the poor and became beloved as “the Good Pope.”

Even Catholics can think of only one pope whom they are willing to call good, out of the entire history of Satan's vicars on earth. Of course, we True Christians™ know that being good isn't enough to avoid eternal damnation (Ephesians 2:8-9), but it speaks volumes that even the Roman institution's adherents recognize the depravity of most of its leaders.

Indeed. Even they cannot completely ignore their own culpability and guilt...and every once in a while, a little golden truth slips out. A sort of brief moral incontinence.

It says a lot about your church when you have a whole section on the forum to badmouth Christians. Stop the hate.

Please show me in the KJV Bible where it says to:

- worship Mary

- practice cannibalism

- worship statues

- obey the "Pope"

Etc., etc.

What are you talking about, Jasper? We come here to glorify God, not to revile Christians. We are Christians ourselves! Are you daft?

Pope Alexander IV (1492-1503) would have to be one of the most depraved. He produced at least 7 bastard offspring, maybe 10, including Cesare Borgia, Giovanni Borgia, Gioffre Borgia, Lucrezia Borgia and Laura Borgia. 2 of those (Cesare and Lucrezia) had incestuous affairs with each other and their father (the pope) in the vatican. Alexander appointed Giovanni as Captain General of the church and made Cesare a cardinal and gave both of them their own duchies in the papal lands.

Leo X (1513 – 1521) was a gaysexural fag, starting a long tradition of poofter priests.

As a former papist, I can assure you it is rare when "Mother Church," as they like to call it, admits any kind of wrongdoing. This is true whether it is on a larger scale or even the tiniest congregation.

I am privy to knowledge of a certain parish in the south where the priest enjoys the company of several of the men in a lewd and lascivious way. He was even discovered nude with a deacon and explained it away that he was teaching the deacon how to properly wear the various vestments. That deacon is now a priest himself in California.

The church admitted one of its nuns purchased an adult toy that was found by a postulant cleaning the nun's room. She was removed from the convent but teaches in a parochial school near Manchester, NH. Praise God such scandal doesn't rock Baptist congregations!

COME, Lord Jesus!

this thread is not about Christians, it's about Catholics actually. That's the evildoers who tortured and burned 50 million Christians. The cult up to this day still has its headquarters in the city of the seven hills just like John wrote

You speak the truth, friend! As a Saved former, Mary-worshiping papist myself, I recall all too well the lies, the stories told as the public face of the church, and the stories told when they let down their guards. The stories we heard in the parochial schools from the priests when they'd wander drunkenly into our classrooms made us turn all shades of red at the time! They'd babble on and on about how they hide their horned tails under their cassocks (you can tell who has one - they're the guys who refuse to wear manly pants, of course), and how the nuns who wear the full habits all have bowed legs and how the priests love to crawl under the legs of the lines of nuns while getting spanked. Usually they did that in the evening after everyone was gone from the church and school campus, but sometimes they played these games on Sunday mornings. We could always tell because they would spend the entire service "adjusting" themselves. Some teachers looked embarrassed at these stories, but most joked and laughed and then pulled out a bottle of something from the top drawer of their desks and sent us off to recess early.
