I shoulda known as my mother warned me not to ever trust unicorns. BTW, when you stick your head up your butt, I'd think that would really hurt, right?
Uhhh it depends what you're into.

Not likely. A bear may still **** in the woods, but this Pope just ain't as Catholic as others have been, IMO.

So, ... are there .... like ... Shabbat police who go around harassing non-Jews for trying to observe Shabbat? 'Cause if there are, I know some Christian sabbatarians I'd like to report.
Thing is, I'm pretty sure they can't really do it on Shabbat (were they actually around, that is).
Two Jews.
Three answers.
I think if anyone could get every Jew to agree upon what keeping Shabbat means that would be miracle enough.

Careful, the Shabbat Police are about to come a-knockin' on your door...this is the friendly early-warning-post-Shabbat alarm system.

He's a Jesuit, and they tend to be more on the liberal side than many other Catholic leaders have been, especially those of decades and centuries past. The irony with Pope Francis is that he came from both a political and religious family that was quite conservative, but his work with the poor in Buenos Aries and elsewhere changed all that.
To put it another way, he's reverted to what the Church used to be in the first couple of centuries and should have stayed as. Fortunately, at the parish level itself historically, parishes often stayed loyal to Jesus' creation of a compassionate and a morally responsible institution. And I believe this is also true of many other Christian denominations and those in many other faiths as well. The Muslim community here in the Detroit area has really been doing a wonderful job helping those in need, for example, as well as the Jewish community.

Point of order, ... Muslims are helping the needy AND Jews? Or Muslims and Jews are helping the needy?

That gives me an idea, ... I'm going to look for the source for the proscription.

The latter. There is quite a bit of cooperation between the three faiths here in this area, as all three faiths have strongly supported numerous charities here-- thank God/Allah/Eloheim!

We don't have much of a large Baha'i community here, plus you guys need to hire better publicists as we don't get much of your news either.
