17 January 2015 Pope Francis: Huge Crowds Gather In Manila for Mass Thousands of people fill the Rizal Park area where Pope Francis is to celebrate Mass to an estimated six million in Manila. Thousands of people have arrived in Rizal Park to wait for Pope Francis
Huge crowds have gathered to see Pope Francis celebrate an outdoor Mass in the Philippine capital Manila.
Thousands of people arrived at Rizal Park on Sunday morning, hours before the Mass is due to begin.
Twenty years ago, more than five million people attended a Mass celebrated here by Pope John Paul II.
The Vatican said Pope Francis would dedicate the service in part to the victims of Typhoon Haiyan, which devastated the country in 2013.
The Mass will be the Pope's final full day in the Philippines, where there are 80 million Catholics, concluding his six-day tour of Asia.
Philippine officials have estimated that as many as six million people may attend the Mass on Sunday afternoon, according to local media.

APOSTOLIC JOURNEY TO THE PHILIPPINES : HOLY MASS WITH POPE FRANCIS
That's a new one on me. Journalists cannot seem to get the lingo right. Bishops and Popes "give Mass," "serve Mass," and "deliver Mass" in news stories all the time.
The reason for this is that Catholicism is a weird unworldly religion that is impossible to research. Journalists cannot pick up a phone and ask questions about it because there is no such thing as a Catholic priest in any major city in the Western world.
“The reason for this is that Catholicism is a weird unworldly religion that is impossible to research.”
What an astoundingly ignorant statement respecting a Church of 2000 years founded on faith and reason with a constellation of theologians from Augustine to Aquinas to Newman to Benedict and a stellar cast of Nobel Laureates, converts, saints, stigmatists, and martyrs among its adherent from all four corners of the world.
This kind of statement “weird unworldly” demonstrate the sheer vapidity if not ignorance of the evil spawned by Protestantism that cannot come to grips with the one, true, Catholic, and Apostolic faith.
You’re a scream.
Read the NEXT sentence and tell me what you think.
No need to read next sentence when fools rush in where angels fear to tread.
Famous mathematicians like Blaise Pascal, Louis Pasteur, father of bacteriology, Enrico Fernini for pioneering theories of radioactivity, and Leonardo da Vinci. Renowned Protestant converts such as Sweden’s pre-eminent Protestant pastor, Ulf Ekman, Wheaton College Professor Joshua Hochschild, and several others including David Anders who has written this brilliant piece- If only you try reading it.

These brilliant minds are not “weird” in accepting the Catholic faith. The so-called “Bible Christians” with all the gobbledegook “born again” stuff have given us the Moonies, Al Sharptons, David Koresh; simpletons like Billy Graham and Rev. Schullers and the list goes on.
You seriously refuse to read the very next sentence???
It makes no sense except for you.
Dude steps on his dick with all of his BS about Islam and Global Warming and Gays, so of course;
He runs to probably the most devout Catholic nation on earth to say, “See? They take me seriously and love me!!”

Watching now. Wonderful.
For want of a sarcasm tag, a thread was lost.
Since it the one started by Christ that the rest broke off of, why not just direct questions to at least the on line Vatican?
Another great way to get verbiage corr ct would be to let a Catholic writer be the one to author and do research.
