Good advice, Father Francis.

Oh, he just figured that out, did he?

Unfortunately, it is too late for Europe. Not to sound all Steyn and everthing, (because I actually don't agree with him on many things), but influx of people has already changed those countries, and not for the better, and humpty dumpty can't be reassembled.

Here the Guardian, is fretting about something it actually worked for:

It's not going to be what it was. It is going to be something else. It might even not be bad, but there's no going back now.

Francis is to the Church, what Obama is to to the USA.
Both are human wrecking crews and distorters.

If Francis gets anything right, he is sure to get about a dozen other things wrong just to balance things out.
all one can do is shake one's head, and pray when it comes to B name Francis.

Very approriate link Mississippi. Totally reasonable to respond to a weeping child with long quotations from The Doctor Angelicus. I'm sure they would have been a great comfort to the little girl.

I was glad to find the post on this day I stopped by.Francis' publicized statements have been disturbing but I have always found his full sermons thoughtful and edifying. Now days I read "news" about the Vicar of Christ assuming secular spin applied and resist getting worked up about it.

Il Papa is just a man doing his best. No, the Pope is not "infallible", or "inflammable" as Bishop Sheen used to joke. Pray for him. He is old and in some danger.

Gracias amigo, R.

I don't hate the Pope either. I think he's trying to do right. I certainly don't think he wants to reduce the Church in the way that Obama always wanted to reduce America -- as he has quite successfully done, in the field of foreign affairs and America's role among nations.

No, I agree with RCL: I think he's frequently mistranslated on purpose by people who have a more radical agenda than his. I think he sometimes gets things wrong, but there's room for correction in an institution that lives in millennia. Other times he gets things quite right.

And, as I always say when speaking of him, I admire his courage. He insists on meeting the people, on touching them, on being with them to a degree that must drive his security people nuts. He is clearly intending to die in the service of God, as he understands that service, and he is not afraid to do it today if it keeps him from becoming walled off from his flock.

There's a lot to admire in that. Enough, I think, to forgive his mistakes.

His mistakes are why he isn't the Vicar of Christ, but just another human leader.

The Catholic Church is a human organization. It does not have the Holy Spirit sustaining them in their roles and authorities. Without Apostles and prophets and holy warriors like Jean De Arc, human organizations always get like that.

Mississippi should add the Vatican along with DC and Tel A to the mystery list of which cities actually control the US, since the logic that works for Israel would also work for the Vatican.

There's is more to despise than the ever was to admire about Francis. . Enough.

Here is a reading list for you to show why we do not come to this position lightly..
