Alright, That’s About Enough (Francis invents eighth work of mercy)


More than three years into this bizarre pontificate, one thing has become clear to the informed objective observer: “Father Bergoglio,” as he is wont to call himself when undermining Catholic doctrine by telephone, is abusing the papal office like no other Pope before him in an attempt to pass off his own ideas as binding on the Church.

The new “eighth work of mercy,” both corporal and spiritual, would be “care for our common home,” meaning the environment.
