And I really think we've ended up at the right place. And a Pope saying this is NOT new!<br /><br />Here's what Pope Benedict XVI said in 2006:<br />"I remember, when I used go to Germany in the 1980s and '90s, that I was asked to give interviews and I always knew the questions in advance. They concerned the ordination of women, contraception, abortion and other such constantly recurring problems.<br /><br />If we let ourselves be drawn into these discussions, the Church is then identified with certain commandments or prohibitions; we give the impression that we are moralists with a few somewhat antiquated convictions, and not even a hint of the true greatness of the faith appears. I therefore consider it essential always to highlight the greatness of our faith - a commitment from which we must not allow such situations to divert us.<br /><br />In this perspective I would now like to continue by completing last Tuesday's reflections and to stress once again: what matters above all is to tend one's personal relationship with God, with that God who revealed himself to us in Christ."<br /><br />Exactly the same right? But pope Francis says it any everyone LOSES THEIR MINDS. We can't blame him for that.Kendra Tierneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04212829372556908004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-84015945990173512022013-09-20T15:32:44.550-04:002013-09-20T15:32:44.550-04:00bug thighs...ha habug thighs...ha haChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030030108671604522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-13950959066131953422013-09-20T15:32:35.578-04:002013-09-20T15:32:35.578-04:00Fist pump to another person who hates nuts in or o...Fist pump to another person who hates nuts in or on baked goods! <br /><br />I have a big butt and bug thighs and no baby..sigh!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030030108671604522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-62164724271423407072013-09-20T12:10:21.932-04:002013-09-20T12:10:21.932-04:00*sigh* I feel you on the last take.

Too funny! That whole take, really, because I was all "she's happy her thighs are getting bigger?!?" then got the baby thing, and yeah. I get it. :) Also super frustrated at the twisting of Pope Francis's words to make it suit a political agenda. I do love the Papa so much! The devil do what he do and he do it well, I suppose. We just gotta let Jesus do what he do 'cause well, he wins! :)RMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07372999417267102123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-38506091991216892992013-09-20T09:23:35.068-04:002013-09-20T09:23:35.068-04:00yes the pope stuff is starting to irk me. for ever...yes the pope stuff is starting to irk me. for everything you just said. surely these statements must be taken out of context or something? but the one about abortion really bothers me! i mean how can you not talk about these issues constantly? I feel like the size of my family for instance is me living my beliefs on abortion all the time. How can you not talk about it all the time in some way ? I feel like I am living poster for pro life...and feel all people should be all the time. even if you have only 1 child or no children--i still feel you should be living pro-life or talking pro-life or being pro-life all the time. So I don't understand what he is saying. and no wonder pro-choice people love that statement. So easily misconstrued. <br /><br /> Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09561187611952737419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-43854099617103388832013-09-20T09:09:05.047-04:002013-09-20T09:09:05.047-04:00I feel the same way regarding #7.

Then after a little thought, I changed my position to "Pope Francis, you're awesome. People need to quit twisting your words!". <br /><br />If growing thigh and butt mean a girl, then what do growing thighs and shrinking butt mean!? Am I having a cat???? Likely.<br /><br />Those muffins look soooooooooooooo drool worthy!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05625035254559197934noreply@blogger.com
