Pope to Catholic leaders: Don’t allow executions this year

“He has a lot of personality and I think he’s doing a very good job, he has a lot of energy”, said Trump as mentioned by BBC News. “So I just don’t think it’s appropriate to question Donald Trump’s faith”, Bush said at the town hall.

Trump’s rivals at Thursday night’s town hall largely stayed away from the brouhaha.

“This sort of engagement by somebody who’s not an American only helps Donald Trump“, said Jon Fleischman, former executive director of the California Republican Party.

The censure roared through the entire field of Republican presidential candidates, who were all pressed about the morality of their approach to immigrants in the country illegally, during a primary dominated by increasingly tough rhetoric that has emphasized border security.

Rep. Edcel Lagman, another author of the bill, said he saw the pope’s comment as a “mellowing of the position of the church”. That sentiment was echoed by Ali Sheikholeslami, a lay leader at the Islamic Cultural Center of Northern California in Oakland, Calif. “It is an offense to the inviolability of life and the dignity of the human person that contradicts God’s plan for man and society and His merciful justice”. “The Pope is not God and has no way of knowing a mans heart, only God does”, wrote Jeannie Mcgowan. Trump: Questioning someone’s Christianity is disgraceful.

Soon after Francis made his appeal, the Saint’Egidio Community released a statement saying that in a world where terrorism and violence are widespread, it’s possible for governments to want to re-introduce death penalty, responding to violence with more violence.

In retrospect, a better course of action may have been actually hearing Trump’s comments in context rather than wading in without knowing the facts, but why would anyone expect him to do that, right?

Instead he got quite emotional and warned that when Vatican is attacked by Isis, Pope Francis will wish that Trump was president.

It doesn’t matter how many world leaders, or respected figures in the United States criticise Trump’s rants and ravings, The Donald’s followers haven’t wavered. He invited the faithful to “welcome this gift as a spiritual aid in order, especially during this Year of Mercy, to spread love, forgiveness, and brotherhood”.

After his performance this week, Trump probably has little shot at either. But there are people in the world who really don’t like surprises. But, you know, Hitler was baptized (a Christian) too.

While Trump continues his campaign for hate, he criticizes figures like the pope simply for being compassionate to those less fortunate and sullying their image for his limited worldview.

In the midst of the massive spread of Zika virus in Latin America and other regions, Pope Francis has created controversy by suggesting that the use of contraceptives might be a good way to combat further spread of the notorious virus, according to USA Today.
