Singer and composer Elton John admires Pope Francis! That flattery from one such as this notorious sodomite, who flaunts his sinful lifestyle around the world with no ounce of shame, is perhaps the greatest insult for the man who has been elected to be Christ’s Vicar on Earth! But will Pope Francis see it as such?

The musician says the Pontiff has brought the Church ‘into the 21st century’
Elton John has said he would like to meet Pope Francis, who he has previously described as a “hero”.
On BBC Radio 4’s flagship Today programme the musician said he considered Pope Francis an “ally” against conservative bishops in Africa in his views on same-sex relationships.
“My sly bet is yes he is. He’s just had the [synod] in Rome and I think he’s fighting an uphill battle against the African cardinals and bishops.”
Elton John said his message to the Pope was: “Keep going, keep pushing it. Change is very hard, especially in the Catholic Church, you don’t get things done immediately, you’re not going to persuade people, just keep going and keep going and eventually the wall will fall. I think he’s on our side.”
The singer, who is in a same-sex marriage, added: “I would love to meet him. I’m not a Catholic but from the first day he was elected he tried to bring a new message and change the Church and bring it into the 21st century. To be a inclusive Church. He has brought hope and change.”

Thank heavens we have Catholic bloggers who are not unafraid to speak the truth about this modern plague of one of the gravest mortal sins being thrust down all our throats as “acceptable” behaviour. Even if the culprit happens to call himself a priest (like this one) and when he and his ilk mercilessly bully any blogger or tweeter who happens to disagree with them, and the Catholic blogger ‘dares’ to speak up for the truth of Christ taught through the Church!
Catholicism Pure & Simple 
But is EJ STILL misinterpreting the Pope’s words (Who am I to judge etc..)? The media consistently failed to report the rest of the sentence: ‘if he is seeking God…..’ There is a world of difference. But of course it’s in the interests of the gay propaganda machine interests to pretend…..

Confusion abounds the Holy Father. His reluctance to clarify anything reported to be said by him is worrying. I was in conversation with a Muslim the other day who was quite relieved that Francis had said there was no Hell and that we would all go to Heaven.
How much more Lord ….. how much more?

The Spanish have a saying: “Dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres”, which translated roughly into English would mean: “Tell me who you go around with and I’ll tell you who you are”.
Or in other words: I can tell what sort of person you are by the company you keep.
Pope Francis has only himself to blame if all the creepiest famous sodomites, adulterers, baby-murderers and heretics sing his praises! He has hobnobbed with them all, demonstrating affection and great pleasure in their company… without ever (it appears) calling them to a change of heart, or to repentance and conversion.
Conversion was the pathway Our Blessed Lord taught when He sought out sinners. Not a pally ‘you’re-okay-mate’ acceptance of their sinful lifestyles as they march along towards Hell.
On the other hand, faithful Catholics who abide by Our Lord’s “Words of Eternal Life” get called all sorts of nasty names by our current pontiff!
(Like at the end of the Synod, when cardinals who were loyal to Church teaching, got lambasted and accused of being cold-hearted by Pope Francis… instead of being thanked and held up as icons of orthodoxy!)
I mean, what is happening in the Church today when what is good and right is denigrated and jeered at… and what is evil and wrong is either ignored or tolerated, and sometimes even seemingly praised?

You can keep your message to yourself, thank you very much (ahem) ‘Sir’ Elton John. You may desire the moulding of the Bride of Christ to fit nicely into your own evil, sordid mindset, hoping to justify and hail your sodomitical lifestyle… but you’ll just have to keep on banging your head against a brick wall.
Not even the Pope can change Christ’s teaching, entrusted to His Church till the end of time.
Though he may well make a right old ‘mess’ in trying to do so!
Perhaps a little look at Ann Barnhardt’s plain-talking article linked to in the final paragraph of the article (where it says “like this one’) might enlighten you a bit on a few hard facts.

Has the podgy old songster ever said he’s a Sodomite? If not, how do we know him and his wife/hubby don’t just lie side by side in bed holding hands and snuggling? Many people do. Do you ever do that Kath;een? (No need to answer.) But, no – Sir Elton has no business advising The Holy Father. Not unless he does so on CP&S, of course.

GC – we would be wise to be cautious with regard to Dame Edna’s paeans of praise for Sir Elton.Remember she has a son, called “Kenny,”* I believe – who is also a “notorious Sodomite, ” so she may be (God forbid!) a bit non-objective in her assessment of the bulgy, balding, balladeer.

Ah Toad, you are so naive if you thought there would be a negative reply to that question! He most certainly has, first calling himself “bisexual” 🙄 before pompously calling himself “gay”. I refuse to give any links – you can Google them for yourself – but all his proclamations are so disgustingly perverse (even casting blasphemous ideas about Our Blessed Lord) that I believe Sir Elton John is the very emblem of depravity!
I feel deeply concerned for the poor little boys he and his ‘partner-in-crime’ have adopted!

Toad, I think we cannot be certain other than of the fact that Dame Edna’s son, Kenny, has a flatmate called Nigel, and which has nothing to do with Sir Anthony..
But apparently Sir Elton has expressed a less than pure interest in Kenny.

I fear you totally miss the point here, Kathleen – I’m well aware Sir Elton Of The Candle In The Wind (where else would you put a candle?) acknowledges being both “gay” and “bisexual” as you say – but has he ever told the world he is a Sodomite? There are subtle nuances of naughty sexuality here, appalling levels of degradation – so utterly unspeakable you can have no idea what the rest of us earthlings are murmuring about – and which (God willing) you will never grasp.
Diagrams are clearly the only demonstrable avenue of information but I will not be the fool supplying them – far more than my life on CP&S is worth. (Which is not much, at the best of times.)
Maybe Michael could explain? He is A Man Of The World – no question. Knocked about a bit. Seen sordid, seamy, stuff “up close,” on more than one occasion.
Kept his upper lip stiff throughout, though. Natch.
“I believe Sir Elton John is the very emblem of depravity!”
What a shame T.S. Eliot has gone to his (Anglican) reward – he might have written a wildly successful musical based on Elton’s depraved life. That would be boffo box office all right!

Oh come on Toad – you can’t be serious! (pace John McEnroe.)
So let’s try the “duck test”… “If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it PROBABLY IS A DUCK”. Or whatever.
Looks like it is you who is “missing the point”. 😉
Re you analysis of Michael, I fear you are wrong once again, totally wrong. I shall let him respond for himself, but must just point out that intelligence, insightfulness and a perceptive understanding of human nature (all things he shows in abundance) are not qualities exclusive to worldly types. In fact those “types” are often quite insensitive and set in secular ways, steeped in relativism – the total opposite of Michael. So whoever you are describing here it is not Michael… but you might just find him in your bathroom mirror!

Can someone explain to Kathleen what sodomy is?* JH could, I’m fairly sure – but he won’t. Not sure I blame him . But, all this has given everyone a good laugh, so that’s all right.
Kathleen, you take it all far too seriously. Of course I’m kidding about Michael’s sordid past, (which I’m confident he ain’t got, well – reasonably confident) and also about Naughty Old Sir Elton, as well, the puddingy, pontificating, popstar – but it just whizzes past you, and you get all bent out of shape.
Still, that’s one of the myriad endearing things about you.

I suppose pigs use mirrors to see if they – like us humans – are made in the image of God, or not. They are doubtless reassured.

So our JH has shown that pigs are at least as intelligent “critters” as dogs, probably more – amazing! That will get Toad all “bent out of shape” no doubt.

Not in the slightest, Kathleen. I don’t love my dogs for their brains any more than I love you for that particular qquality. I love my dogs (and you) simply because they are loveable. Pigs are well known to be far smarter than dogs.*.
Churchill was right on this matter: “A dog looks up to you – a cat looks down on you – but a pig treats you as an equal.”
Off to ring the bells now. In charge of the church keys this month. Imagine! Toad! In charge of a church! Big honour.
