To: ebb tide

May God have mercy on his soul. Given his track record, he will apparently need it. The Franciscans of the Immaculate are magnificent men being persecuted by the Church under the present regime. May our next pope be young and vigorous and healthy and a real Catholic with an attitude.

“...May our next pope be young and vigorous and healthy and a real Catholic with an attitude...”

Amen. From your lips to God’s ears, as they say.

If one would permit me to add: real Catholic would mean unwaivering, firm and crystal clear in the traditional interpretation of doctrine. No post Vatican II ambiguity. We need a present day St. Augustine as our leader. Let us pray that the Lord will raise one up - maybe he will even be African like St. Augustine was.

St. Augustine ora pro nobis.

(I am not sure exactly why I just went on a St. Augustine promotional discourse just now because we are talking about Franciscans: so also St. Bonaventure: pray for us.
