New Pope Terrorizes Cafeteria Catholics!

The last two Popes did some heavy lifting on their own, allowing cafeteria Catholics, the vast majority, to form crowds and sneer at each other.  The term cafeteria Catholic refers to the tendency to pick and choose which teachings certain Catholics want to obey.

The peace and justice left wing crowds around the dessert section and ogles the sweets, while the right wing hangs out at the utensil stand and admires how sharp the forks are and how big the spoons are.    Neither has the discipline to get a balanced diet.

Out of the gate this Pope said -

He urged priests to build their churches on solid foundations, warning: "What happens when children build sand castles on the beach? It all comes down."

"If we don't proclaim Jesus, we become a pitiful NGO, not the bride of the Lord," he said.

"When we walk without the cross, and when we preach about Christ without the cross, we are not disciples of the Lord. We are mundane. We are bishops, priests, cardinals, popes, but we are not disciples of the Lord."

Pitiful NGO. Ouch!  The right wingers are grinning right now, but I bet he saves the best for last, that is  to correct the pro-war wing of the Church.

No more Mr. Nice Guy, the whip comes down!

UPDATE:  Looks like "pitiful" NGO is a bad translation of "charitable NGO."  I can see the mistake in translation...  so no, this Pope is not like me.  Probably a good thing...
