Pope says in interview that there is no hell.
March 29, 2018 at 1:10 pm
Quote:Catholic Pope Francis made a startling revelation Thursday by stating that hell did not exist, in an interview with a leading liberal Italian newspaper.
In an article entitled "It is an honor to be called a revolutionary," La Repubblica editor Eugenio Scalfari acknowledged the pontiff's previous remarks about how "good souls" who sought repentance from God would receive it and then asked: "What about the bad souls?". Seemingly going against centuries of core Christian belief, Pope Francis said the souls of sinners simply vanished after death, and were not subject to an eternity of punishment.
"They are not punished, those who repent obtain the forgiveness of God and enter the rank of souls who contemplate him, but those who do not repent and cannot therefore be forgiven disappear," Pope Francis said, as translated by Catholic blog Rorate Caeli.
"There is no hell, there is the disappearance of sinful souls," he added.

Now if the phony fuck would just admit there's no heaven either we'd be on to something.
But the church has to keep the money pouring in from the sheep.

Since the donkey just can't stand the whip anymore, they are sticking with the carrot? I'm fine with ending at one point. Can't, have stuff to do.

I'm surprised he didn't end the interview with a 1-800 number a limited time free offer for the first ten callers.

Why, were you really looking forward to all that hellfire or something?

No religious text or statement can. Exactly.
