Who cares what the pope says?

Question

Or who listens to what he says?

Answer 1

Muslims apparently. Don't you think it's a little ironic that he quotes somebody from the 14th century that claims muslims are violent and they respond with....yep you got it, violence.

Answer 2

because there are more beneficial Catholics in this international than there are Jews. The Catholics regard the Pope as their non secular chief and as such he has an spectacular impact on their political agendas besides as their moral compass and their each day lives. even if ... there are a concepts more beneficial those who're terrified of the Jews a lot that they quite imagine that the Jews are operating the international .... it really is bullsh*t for sure. (Demographics prepare that there is 0.002% Jews interior the international's inhabitants; how the hell is that wee mark of adult men and women going to regulate the international?) So; understanding the demographics of the Catholics is way more beneficial than the Jews, and understanding the Catholics regard the Pope as their chief that's probability-free to anticipate the Pope has an excellent variety of persuasion to an spectacular variety of adult men and women in all walks of life. So human beings care about what the Pope says even even as they don't seem to be Catholic or Christian because they understand he has a great deal of political and social administration and he can exorcise it at will. human beings watch what he says and does because he has a strong deal of "international" impact.

Answer 3

Because like it or not, the Pope is a powerful political leader as well as a spiritual one. When he goes out of his way to offend or praise someone, he is speaking not for himself but for every member of his church as well. For the same reason we ought to care about what our President says and how he represents America (and don;t get me started on THAT!).

Answer 4

The only thing he said is that religion cannot be imposed by force.
Why anybody should be offended by such a statement? Only those who feel guilty!

Of course not everybody listens to the Pope, or there wouldn't be abortions, divorces and gay marriages.

Answer 5

No one other than fervent Catholics which makes the recent brouhaha all the more puzzling. Who knew Muslins read the Catholic Daily? The Pope was speaking to a crowd of friendly supporters giving them the sort of speech the 'hometown' wanted to hear - - -

Peace

Answer 6

What's really scary when I was tuning across the AM band yesterday I happened across a Catholic radio station preaching for people not to vote for anyone with pro choice views. Yeah that's what's going to make the country better ... another freaking BUSH!

Answer 7

Some Muslims are listening to accusations about what the pope said.

The pope's message was supposed to be that faith and violence are incompatible.

Answer 8

Well, I pay him no mind-------------UNLESS what he says hurts the relationship of people in the world.

And, it has. Two Christian churches in Gaza have been bombed. And, there may be more that I do not know of.

I do not understand the need to have a Pope. Each man should have his own connection to G-d, and not have someone considered ''holy'' to tell them what to do.

Answer 9

Stupid ignorant sheep who will follow the leader of a man made religion worshiping a man made god thinking it will get them into some imaginary place called heaven ( Boy, are they gonna be surprised when they find out there is no heaven and there is a hell. It's called life, and we're in it right now.

Answer 10

Well he is like any other political leader (same as religous leader), he has his followers. And then again who cares what the politicians say.
