The Pope on salvation for atheists

no you assumed right. We care deeply about lost souls. I certainly do.

However, I am not overly intested in the mechinations of some lost soul leading lost souls down the primrose path.

Interestingly enough, that's one of the things Jesus tore the Pharisees up over.

Matthew 23:13-15 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Help me out, cause I'm still not getting it...you care deeply about lost souls, but you're not interested in one lost soul leading several million lost souls astray? I think that's a contradiction.

The Pope obviously does.
