Is the Pope a Catholic? I think not!
He tries to be a Christian, but that's your lot!

When he broke bread with the AB of C
(Their hands so united could part the sea)
I thought that meant Communion, you and me ~
Yet now I can with you, but not you with me!
How can we do multifaith if we cannot agree?
The Pope sits Caesar of his overfished See.

The Gay priest giveth the anti-gay shout!
Women's róle diminished - Sybils out!
Man's representatives divide us, me from you,
Roman from Orthodox, Gentile from Jew.
Is the Pope a Catholic? I think not!
God is a Catholic, we are not!

Clever little piece.

Of course the Rules to be upheld do not permit tolerance of other points of view or deviation from the written Word.
They were cunningly designed that way to hold ancient kingdoms and empires together.

Ah, but democratic society requires tolerance and church leaders are under pressure to demonstrate God’s compassion for all HIS subjects.

Unfortunately, the intolerant man made Rules made by men are asserted as being God given so cannot be changed.

Perhaps God is neither Catholic nor CofE, it’s just that men would like HIM to be?

Season’s greetings FC

The reviewer would appreciate your comments on: Father, Son and the other one
