Lol, no. "White Harlot" is not mentioned once in the Bible. "Harlot" in the bible in Revelations 17-18 refers to Pagan Rome, before the coming of Christianity. It is thought...

They don't know. Evidently, Pope Leo is perfectly cool with child trafficking and all the delightful things that come with it. I can see how Joe Biden, an old pervert who...

It's Trump Derangement Syndrome. As if we needed more proof that the Left hasn't had an original thought since François-Noël Babeuf's head was still connected to his neck...:roll:

Commie for thee, but not for me! BTW, nice segue from the ChiComs to Uncle Bernie. I like what you did there. :beer:

Well, they damn sure can't bully Trump, and if other folks do not similarly stand up to them, they will walk off with their manufacturing, just like they have walked off with...

His father was the principal of a Catholic school in an adjacent south suburb of Chicago where I grew up. It really is a small world.

Pfft. American companies sent their manufacturing overseas because most Americans are cheap. They don't want to pay higher prices for the higher quality goods that higher paid...

India has imposed anti-dumping tariffs on Chinese goods, too. It's going to be hard for the CCP to bully anyone if the U.S. and the world stands up to them.

The church is thinking in generations, not until the next headlines. The world doesn't revolve around this country, but he will engage in politics, espacially social politics.

Hard to say but Trump's tariff policy is working-for the first time ever, the Pope was made in America rather than Europe

Aside from the whole TDS thing, it's sad because this day is and should be all about the new pope, and he certainly has my best wishes.

I don't think Francis hated anyone, and I doubt very much that Leo XIV does, either. Disapproval, even strongly stated, is not hatred. That word is way overused this last...

He's an Augustinian, which suggests theological depth and seriousness.
