Pope: Christ Was Not a Prophet!

November 19, 2012 • From theTrumpet.com

In a startling statement made during his Monday Angelus to the faithful, Pope Benedict declares Jesus Christ was no prophet.

Quote:
 
In a startling pronouncement about Jesus Christ’s revelation of the signs leading up to His return to Earth, Pope Benedict declared that “Jesus does not describe the end of the world, and when He uses apocalyptic images, He does not act as a ‘seer.’ On the contrary, He wishes to ensure that His disciples in every age remain unmoved by dates and predictions.”

Killjoy Pope crushes Christmas nativity traditions: New Jesus book reveals there were no donkeys beside crib, no lowing oxen and definitely no carols

'In the gospels there is no mention of animals,’ he writes, saying that they were probably a Hebrew invention of the seventh century BC, as outlined in the Book of Habakkuk.
----
Scenes relating to the birth of Jesus, as described in the Gospel, do not directly refer to the presence of an ox and donkey.

But in Habakkuk 3:2, it is written: 'In the midst of the two beasts wilt thou be known' - and this was one of the sources which inspired the presence of the creatures at the manger.

(It is worth noting that another Old Testament prophet, Isaiah, also inspired the manger scenery, with his words from 1:3: 'The ox knows its owner, and an ass, its master’s manger').

Phallic imagery


The article goes on to say the three wise men are a myth and there was no star guiding them because stars don't act that way (info from a Cardinal).

Pope also admits that Jesus would have been born years earlier than the Christian calendar states.

Quote:
 
MARY'S BOY CHILD JESUS CHRIST WAS BORN ON CHRISTMAS DAY? Boney M sang it but it doesn't mean it's true. The Bible does not specify a date or a month. But December 25 is known to have become popular during the fourth century so Christians could have an alternative to a popular pagan festival at that time of year. December 25, which was around the time of the winter solstice, also marked a pagan festival for Mithraism, a Roman cult that rivalled Christianity (and celebrated the birth of their god, Mithra).

NO STAR OF BETHLEHEM: At that time, in Judea, there was no concept of astronomy. And no star can shine on just one particular town. According to Matthew 2: 9-11: 'After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was.'


Gosh, what if it was a ufo?

But Pontiff DOES say that Mary was a virgin who became pregnant by God

Uproar Over French Anti-Smoking / Oral Sex Campaign

Oh, France. Beaucoup de ways to illustrate "To smoke is to be a slave to tobacco," and you choose this one?

Today's NYT reports on the many groups who are unhappy, particularly feminists and advocates for sex abuse victims. (One of the three posters features a girl.) However, the article doesn't give voice to any objections that campaign is trying to scare teens away from smoking with the assumption that the worst thing in the world is to be gay. Which is exactly what the Onion did last year as a joke, including this position. (Clip below has perfect satire of insipid morning chat, and slurs.)

At least Bertrand Dautzenberg, president of the French Office for the Prevention of Smoking, retains some common sense. He says the ads "will shock adults while not scaring kids.”

Over 100,000 demonstrators joined protests organized by Catholic groups to oppose the introduction of homosexual “marriage” in France over the weekend. Backed by the Catholic Church and attended by Catholic clergy and bishops, the protests rallied against French President Francois Hollande’s decision to back plans to legalize homosexual “marriage” and adoption next year.
