Pope Bashing

United States

If you have been on Facebook today you may be seeing some of the things I've seen. Pope bashing and bashing Catholics. I am not going to give attention to those who are saying things, therefore, I won't repeat the nasty things being said. It may be time to clean out and get rid of some so-called 'friends'.

I usually don't like the popes, this time around I have to give the man some props, he is really trying to actually do some things, and be more accessible, down to earth and real, perhaps he took a page from the Dahli Lama;s book of wisdom.

I am not religious, but I find it rather degrading and disgusting that people can bash any sort of religion! And most of all a holy man in that matter! What goes round, comes around!

I hate bashing of any kind to any person. People who bash others are jealous and cowardly. I'm not bashing because I didn't mention any particular person. I could say some rotten things about some people but I keep my thoughts to myself. Some day I could be drowning and that one person may be the only one who could save me.

Facebook seems to be to be filled with so much hate and anger and fear. I haven't unfriended anyone yet because I actually find what I read to be interesting in a sense. I may not agree with people but I support thier right to speak their mind. Even if I think what they are saying is completely stupid or ignorant. A few years ago I would have stopped going to Facebook and avoided all of the hate and anger but I worked very hard to learn to not let things get to me and because of that I am able to hear what other people have to say and get a better idea of what is going on in the world. It works for me but I did have to work on myself a lot to get to this point. It does make me sad though to see how so many people are so filled with hate and anger and fear. In general, I guess I find others peoples opinions interesting and sometimes very entertaining. The angrier and more hateful they are the more entertaining it is to me.

This Pope is a good man, people are ignorant, those who do not agree should not offend.

I've been on Facebook some today and haven't seen anything like that on my feed. I'm not a religious person, but I still don't want to see anything like that.

@AbbyGreenhill I've spent more time on Facebook since I first commented and there was very little about his visit on my feed. None of it was bad, but I was surprised that there was so little on there.

I haven't been on Facebook today to see anything about the Pope but it's sad if people are bashing him.
