In reply to the discussion: Pope Francis is on the wrong side of history (again) [View all]Bluenorthwest
(45,319 posts)41. How does your Frankie Two Shoes compare to Obama on LGBT equality. Obama supports equality.
Francis Superstar, on the other hand, says God is at war with LGBT people, urges his boosters to fight that war, he opposes adoption by LGBT parents, says it is child abuse while his own church abuses children in the very worst ways.

Dwell in that place honestly and consider the facts if you can manage to muster the guts to face what you are defending here.
