Either the Pope has lost his mind or something weird is going on in the Catholic Church...

 

NEW - Pope: Marxists and Christians have a "common mission." pic.twitter.com/Tr0NVbzX0t

I have never heard a Pope state that Christianity and Marxist/Communist have a common mission. How could we? Communist don't believe in God. At least in Karl Marx's perfect model of it.

Karl Marx was a materialist, and he believed that the whole of human history moved on, driven by economic forces. This was his idea. There was no place in that system for God, and so from that moment on, communism became an atheistic system. And to this very day it is atheistic.

The Pope is lost and is turning into an embarrassment.  He is destroying an institution he supposedly loves by lowering standards to such a degree that it even accommodate those that deny the existence of God.

Dude needs to retire.  But its the Catholic version of the Marine Corps mess.  Just like the super powerful Commandant, many Catholics believe that the Pope can do no wrong.  Check this out from some of their past leaders...

"Even if he [the Pope] were an incarnate devil we ought not to raise up our heads against him, but calmly lie down to rest on his bosom.” – St. Catherine of Siena

"The Pope is God on earth Jesus has placed the pope higher than the prophets, than John the Baptist, and than all the angels Jesus has put the Pope on the same level as God Himself!" – St. John Bosco (sorry but this is a WTF statement...editor)

"Every cleric must obey the pope, even if he commands what is evil; for no one may judge the pope." – Pope Innocent III

"There is only one; that’s me. I am Tradition." – Pope Pius IX

"The pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ Himself, hidden under the veil of the flesh." – St. Pius X (another WTF statement)

Quite a few baptists leaders believe that the Catholic church is gonna be at the center of the rise of the anti-Christ.  Those statements above make me believe they're onto something. 

Tons of Catholics in LA so I'm not banging on them.  But even they would find those quotes disturbing.
