The Vatican confirms that Pope Francis was rat-fucked into meeting Kim Davis


Now it's coming out that it wasn't even a private meeting - she was actually in a meet-and-greet line. So all that stuff about him approving of her actions and all? Complete and utter bullshit. It's highly unlikely he even knew who she was.


ETA: From another article:

As he left the country, Francis told reporters who inquired that he did not know specific cases in detail, but he defended conscientious objection as a human right.

"It is a right. And if a person does not allow others to be a conscientious objector, he denies a right," Francis said.


So even THAT quote wasn't about Davis. Wow, it's like people who leak information to the press might actually be LYING or something. Fancy that!

What I find really amusing is how little she knows her own holy book. It says right there in the bible - quite clearly - that it's perfectly okay for her to authorize forms that certify activities Christians aren't supposed to take part in. So long as they don't take part themselves, stamping forms is no problem. Right there in one of Paul's letters it says it. He was responding to someone who had the first century equivalent job to Davis's - certifying legal forms, and he objected to forms that certified pagan activities. Paul said, "Don't sweat it. You're not at the ceremonies, right? Do your job, then. You're okay."

But she's too ignorant of her own bible to realize the question has been answered so clearly. She's either terminally self-absorbed or has been bamboozled into thinking her stance has any biblical authority to back it up.

Well, that's a problem with zealots and Kim Davis is certainly a zealot. And she picks and chooses the parts of religion and the Bible that she wants to follow.
