Pope Francis: Not Fair to Call China ‘Undemocratic’

Original Article

Posted By: Black Conservative Voice, 9/18/2022 6:46:55 AM

ROME — Pope Francis has rejected the label “undemocratic” to describe China’s communist regime, insisting that the issue is too complex to allow for such characterizations. “I cannot get on board with calling China undemocratic; I won’t do that because it’s such a complex country,” the pontiff told journalists during his return trip from Kazakhstan to Rome Thursday. “Sure, there are things that seem undemocratic to us, that is true.” “Labeling is difficult and I’m not ready to do that, since they are impressions, so instead I try to support the path of dialogue,” he declared.

Comments:

Not fair to call him a Catholic Pope! We can call him Woke Pope. The wonders never cease.

This Pope needs to retire. I am Catholic and in my lifetime I have never seen a pope get so involved with liberal politics. I guess he doesn't believe in separation of church and state.

Fatima. We used to pray for the collapse of communism and the conversion of Russia and China. All Catholics and interested Protestants should familiarize themselves with rerum novarum, quadrissimus anno, and centissimus anno, intellectual and theological guidance on the evils and threat of authoritarianism and communism. More fuel on the fire that Obama and Clinton, aided by disgraced McCarrick, organized and influenced the last conclave.

First; we need to stop whining about the separation of church and state. It is not a Constitutional phrase or even concept. The US Constitution establishment clause ONLY prohibits all levels of government from either advancing or inhibiting religion. Moreover, if the church had been doing its job for the last 200+ years then WE, the People, might not have elected so many immoral men and women to office as we see now. Secondly, the Catholic Cardinals who elected Bergoglio as Pope did not make a 'mistake'. Calling it a 'mistake' somehow excuses the election. No, the Cardinals knew exactly what they were doing and I am afraid will do even worse when Francis dies. In the end God will hold us accountable for the people we elect whether as Pope or President.

He can't call Communist China undemocratic?! I should think the Communist leaders would take offense. He was a leftist before he became Pope and he still is. Leftists always attack one's language first, as a path to corrupting thought. The Serpent in the Garden of Eden, the "most subtle creature," did the same. His first words to Eve questioned what God had said to them, "Did God really say you were not to eat from any of the trees in the garden?" It's complex, the Serpent went on to say.

Communists aren't against religion as long as it is state run. Don't call China 'Undemocratic'? Our Pope is playing word games. What type of word games would he play with the Word of God? This is how new religions get started. This new religion would be more concerned with man's relation to the state rather than God.

Whether President Joe Biden is doing enough to limit illegal immigration is a key issue raised by Republicans this midterm election cycle. To draw attention to the topic, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis flew around 50 immigrants to Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, on Sept. 14 — surprising local officials and making them scramble to accommodate the group. DeSantis isn't the first Republican governor to send newly arriving migrants out of his state: Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has bused more than 7,000 immigrants to Democratic-led cities like New York City, Washington, D.C., and Chicago. On Sep. 15, Abbott sent two buses of immigrants to Vice President Kamala Harris' residence in the nation's capital; and

DeSantis made the remarks Thursday after Democrats called the transportation of migrants a political stunt.

The CDC-FDA officials promoted the questionable experimental vaccines instead and this helped Big Pharma make billions.

Earlier this week, DeSantis mimicked his Texas and Arizona counterparts in sending over groups of migrants to Democrat-led cities up north in protest of the Biden Administration's border policies. Newsom and other Democratic leaders have slammed the move as playing with people's lives, with the California governor going so far as to call for kidnapping charges against DeSantis.

The package includes 40 bills that appear to provide new green rules on laws related to things ranging from large-scale industry to the family home and private and public transportation.(snip)Newsom’s office said his sweeping package of measures will create four million new jobs over the next 20 years, cut air pollution by 60 percent, and reduce state oil consumption by 91 percent.

Recently, the Arizona Mirror revealed that the Republican Party in Arizona is urging Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell to financially support U.S. Senate candidate Blake Masters. Masters, who secured a coveted endorsement from President Trump, triumphed in the primaries based on that seal of approval. In the beginning, Masters was trailing his Democrat rival, incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly, by a significant margin of 12 points. But matters have recently swung in Masters's favor, and a recent Emerson College poll has Kelly leading Masters by just two percentage points.
