    The Myanmar trip would seem to present the pope an opportunity to reassert his status as the world’s moral compasshttp://nyti.ms/2hTfghq

        All globalists, wanker politicians, HR lobbyists, UN OIC and mickey mouse journalists - Better to shut your mouth, as you knew exactly that there is no Rohingya existed on earth! Will you leave Pope alone?

        No pope has ever had that status. How ridiculous to even suggest that a corrupt organisation of misogynists who live in palaces paid for by the world's poor, protecting paedophiles while vilifying minorities could ever be a moral example.

        West's grandiloquent stance of the Pope being the moral compass - amusing! Every religion, every sect has got its exclusive moderate spiritual head! Come on...stop such extravagant grandstanding! 🤗

        There is a view that to say Rohingya reaffirms the British ethnic caste system that started the prejudice & serves as the Army’s excuse; calling them Myanmar Muslims makes a compelling case for their return and political assimilation. It’s a view.

        Sorry we do not need a theological moral compass We need to do it for ourselves.

        Dave, your moral compass is based off of judeo-Christian morals! Accept the facts! Your roots are theological! It's ok!

        You have something mixed up, Dennis. Over the years, the so called 'judeo-christian' morals were forced to bow to the humanistic, common-sense moral concepts that the Enlightenment and similar movements spawned. It was the only way for the religious elites to stay in business.

        That is the reason why today's 'christian' morals have so little in common with the book's instructions.

        Your argument is assumptive! Common sense? Killing someone for food when you're starving is logical! But why is that not moral to you?

        Are you actually implying that you would not object to killing a fellow human being if you had no celestial supervision? You are better than that.

        The responsibility of acting as moral compass in this scenario should fall on the Dalai Lama rather than a Catholic Pope.

        "world's moral compass"!? He seems like a kindly old gent but this is a ridiculous throw away assertion for so so many reasons. #PopeFrancis #atheism #humanism #catholicism @RichardDawkins

        This Pope is a humanist. Defender of Christianity and Catholicism, not so much.
