Pope Francis

Islamophobe.

Via Catholic Herald:

Pope Francis said he cried when he recently saw images of Christians allegedly killed by crucifixion.

“Still today there are people who kill, who persecute in the name of God,” he said during a homily at early morning Mass in the chapel of his residence. And still today there are Christians who, like the Apostles, are “happy to be judged worthy of suffering dishonour for Christ’s name”.

“I cried when I saw in the media” photographs allegedly showing “Christians crucified in a certain non-Christian country”, he told those at the Mass, according to a report by Vatican Radio. In late April, a number of news outlets reprinted photographs showing what were described as crucifixions in Syria.

New outlets that reprinted or posted the images online said they could not confirm that the bodies hung on crosses died by crucifixion or that they were Christians.
