❝If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked.❞ Proverbs 29:12 If you want people to think you’re infallible, it’s probably best not to say stupid things. dwr The Pope has made it clear that he’s completely clueless about drug policy, adding just one more data point to the list of the Catholic Church’s embarrassing blunders throughout history (hello, Galileo). ☛RIO DE JANEIRO – The legalization of drugs will not reduce the problems of addiction, Pope Francis said Wednesday at a hospital in Brazil dedicated to the rehabilitation of drug users. ❝A reduction in the spread and influence of drug addiction will not be achieved by a liberalization of drug use, as is currently being proposed in various parts of Latin America,❞ the Pope said. ❝The scourge of drug-trafficking, that favors violence and sows the seeds of suffering and death, requires of society as a whole an act of courage.❞ Yes. And that act of courage just happens to be legalization. What did you think it was? What the Pope does here is simply mouth some non-sequitors and meaningless platitudes, along with using strawman arguments. He should be embarrassed, but quite frankly, I doubt he’s aware enough. And so, if his words are followed, the drug trafficking organizations will continue to use violence to get rich and the governments will use violence to go after them and the people stuck in the middle will die. Pope calls for more killing. O.N.D.C.Pope There is a special place in Hell reserved for the Vatican The Pope Hearkens to Lies ❝I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.

He believed the custom of Catholic Filipinos smoking opium made them impervious to conversion to the Episcopalian faith, and petitioned, some say blackmailed, President Roosevelt into supporting the first international conference on the scourge of opium, held in 1901 Shanghai, which ultimately led to the Harrison Narcotics Act of 1914. The irony I see in Pope Francis coming out against the evil of drugs, if one is to assume Bishop Brent was actually correct, is that without opium the heavily Catholic Philippines would be now singing in the Episcopalian choir.❞ Daniel Williams July 26, 2013 at 4:20 pm Ancient Temple Hashish Incense!
