Were it so, you'd hear of reasons and means to get there, rather than warnings and admonitions about not going to Hell. And it seems any little thing can send you there, too. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Doesn't sound like he believes in heaven, either. Vatican officials said that the meeting between Pope Francis and Scalfari was a private meeting and not a formal interview. Was it on a bus with a hot mic? "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

How come you don't say this (again and again and again like you have on this) every time the administration backs down one of Trump's blurts or lies? Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

That's the thing it was an informal meeting that was not recorded and the gentleman even did not take notes. He has done this before. After meeting with the Pope this ninety something year old reporter remembers what he thinks the Pope said and reports it. I feel like if you think about this for more than a minute you would realize the ridiculousness of it. I find it very telling that Bob has latched on so tightly to the story. At the very least it is proof that he does think personal testimony and experiences are very strong pieces of evidence. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

As the press is pointing out, notice that nowhere in the Vatican's carefully worded spin does it deny that the pope said hell doesn't exist. This is a huge story and is gaining ground, Cathlolic's are wondering on Good Friday what the heck Jesus died for. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | Bob, you are calling the remembrances of a 93 year old man about a meeting with the Pope when there were no notes taken big news?!? Do you really think the Pope, who has been very clear throughout his pontificate on the existence of Hell would deny it in an informal interview? I can assure you that no Catholics are taking this seriously nor are many who know how Scalfari and these interviews have gone in the past. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Dalex64 Member since: Mar 8, 2014 Threads: 3 Posts: 3687 | Are you saying that without notes, in an informal meeting, that it is not possible to remember anything at all accurately? If he didn't take notes, how did he know he was meeting with the pope? "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

Which begs the question: why doesn't the pope, or his secretary, take notes and/or record the meetings? Fool me once, etc. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |
