In a sentence or two - #06

(En español más abajo)
 
Imagine any religious leader asking their followers to disobey the law and do whatever their consciences tell them. He/She will be labelled as a 'terrorist' and 'seditious', and many will ask for their head on a platter, denouncing these religions and discriminating against those who follow them, saying that they live in the Middle Ages.

The Pope did exactly the same when talking about same-sex marriage and the majority of the comments I read are like 'I still like him', 'he is such a breath of fresh air', 'we need to give Francis more time' and 'you can't do everything in just one day'.

Is this a blatant case of double standards or just pure hypocrisy?

Imaginen cualquier líder religioso que llame a sus fieles a desconocer las leyes vigentes y hacer lo que sus conciencias le indiquen. Los calificativos van a ir de 'terrorista' y 'sedicioso' para arriba. Muchos van a pedir su cabeza y condenar esas religiones del medioevo y así discriminar a todos los que las practican.

Lo hace el Papa cuando opina sobre el casamiento entre personas del mismo sexo y los comentarios son del estilo 'a mí todavía me gusta', 'hay que darle tiempo a Francisco' y 'no se puede hacer todo en un día'.

Si esto no es el doble standard, entonces qué es? Pura hipocresía nomás?
