Vatican Pushes Back on White House Guest List for Papal Welcome

redbeard · September 18, 2015, 04:35:14 PM

QuoteAs Pope Francis' first visit to the United States quickly approaches, a guest list for his welcome ceremony was revealed by the Obama administration and included guests that not only offend the Vatican, but also will test the Pope's tolerance, The Wall Street Journal reports.

The Obama administration has decided to invite transgender activists Mateo Williamson and Vivian Taylor, the first openly gay Episcopal bishop, Bishop Gene Robinson and Sister Simone Campbell, an activist nun who leads a group criticized by the Vatican for its silence on abortion and euthanasia.

Despite the Pope declaring that he doesn't believe in judging people and is ready to welcome anyone in Christ's name, he has also said that Catholics do not accept the modern mentality of transgenderism and that gay marriage is the devil's "attempt to destroy God's plan," Breitbart reports.

If I was the pope I would go ahead and meet these people , tell them they are endangering their souls and as far as the Bishop and Nun, Excommunicate them for failing to follow the churches teachings!

This is the most disrespectful thing I've ever seen this guy do, and I'm not Catholic, and I don't agree with this pope on almost anything. I wondered for awhile if the pope wasn't in on this himself. I doubt it. When Obama invites his Muslim buds, I wonder why he doesnt stick these queers in their faces like he does with a "christian" leader. Not really. I don't wonder at all.

Yeah, it looks like Obama is in the mood to rub everyones nose in filth. He is disgusting!

I heard today that he is appointing a civilian homosexual as secretary of the Army. Can you imagine the outrage from the rank and file?? A non military gay running our armed forces!!!!!

And here's another queer thing about the story:

The new, openly gay Secretary of the Army
is a graduate of Centerville (Ohio) High School.

He will be under Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter,
who is also a graduate of Centerville High School.

Out of all the high schools in the country,
two top DoD officials come from the same one?

I can't help thinking that there's more to this story than we're being told.

Looks like I made an error.

I had in the back of my head the news from July 6,
about Eric Fanning, the new Secretary of the Army,
and somehow misremembered it as being about Ashton Carter,
who was also installed relatively recently.

Ashton Carter is from Philadelphia (per Wikipedia).

Here is some info about Eric Fanning:

I am putting as possible a spin that I can on what Obama is doing. This is just another nail in the democrat party coffin.

There are MILLIONS of LIV Catholics who are willing to vote Demonrat. Maybe this will wake a few up. We can only hope.

I wonder if he will try to block the military ballots again this election?

Obama is destroying his party in spades! He is alienating large groups of voters making it impossible for them to win without illegal votes! And we are watching more closely now!

I wonder how many blacks are awake to the fact that the Demonrat Party has made them 2nd class citizens behind a few million ILLEGAL Hispanics. But then, The Repub Establishment is working closely with the Dems on this.

That is exactly why it is so important for Cruz to appear on as many liberal programs as possible. These folks must be educated. If they never expose themselves to the truth they will continue to make the same stupid choices!! We must go to where they reside!

They reside on the sofa watching Stephen Colbert and Bill Maier. Beyond that, they are plugged into stupid reality shows!

I wonder if the gay-community is outraged, or the Chinese are personally insulted that obama hasn't invited open closet US LGTB's to greet China's delegation at the White House.

Might as well make it a tradition for every State-visit.

So far Obama is on his good behavior today. He even placed his right over his heart during the National Anthem.

This should shock me, but it doesn't. Obama has to be as low class as they come. He takes his rudeness to the extreme. A*****e.
