While flying back to the Vatican after a visit to Armenia, Pope Francis declared that Christians should apologize to LGBTs and others who’ve been “offended” or “exploited” by the church. It’s the type of radical thinking that has helped Francis — the first non-European pontiff in more than 1,200 years — achieve a level of celebrity nearly unprecedented in the history of Catholicism. But now it seems Francis’ star is swiftly falling where it perhaps matters most — his homeland, Argentina. Indeed, a recent local poll revealed that Francis — the former Jorge Mario Bergoglio, archbishop of Buenos Aires — has tumbled from the first to the ninth most “trustworthy Argentine” in just two years.

Now how can anybody possibly miss the fact that this piece of junk is just a politician of the worst sort? If he doesn't like Macri, does that mean Macri's good? Why isn't His Holeyness calling for Argentina to take in a few million "refugees". Let's have some consistency here! (It can't be in Japan. It has square roof corners!)
