  • All free countries are Christian. Think about that.....

  • Do you really want that your God will bless the haters? Or are you just playing for a while that you are loving your enemy like Christianity proffesses, but inside you feel insulted and you have animal instints to fight back?

  • God bless the damn HATERS and having nothing to do in there life just talk crap and have nothing good in there life..

    no matter how messed up ur life is right now

  • Near as I'm aware, the worst he can be accused of is being a member of the Hitler youth, which was mandatory for 13yo boys, and being drafted in the Army, and deserting. However his involvement in the Vatican cover up seems to be accurate.

    I'm all for being critical of the the pope, but near as I'm aware, he wasn't important enough to commit war crimes except desertion. There are other issues that need be addressed.

  • i would start by trying to sue the pope, or some other person who is trying to define that there is such a place
