So, do you have any problems with the bigoted views of the Pope? You know, the leader of the RCC? When he says things, they mean things. It's not like attacking some random Catholic on the street for the dogma of the church. This is saying that the infallible leader of the RCC is a bigot. And, I mean, he is, right?

He doesn't want gays to get married. He supports horribly antiquated views toward women.
