This is very troubling, that a sitting Pope would be so callous as to inflict a political decision on the Church’s flock.

While it has happened before, but to have it happen today when the previous Pope is still alive is astounding.

I suspect that the children of the Church in Chile are being sifted, and much like the Church under any dictatorial country, will emerge more purer and refined.

Maybe the next Pope should come from Africa or one of these downtrodden countries... like Chile or China.

Despite a preponderance of evidence (a requirement that more than 50% of the evidence points to something. This is the burden of proof in a civil trial) Franciscus deliberately appointed this 'Bishop' for what reason? How do you respond?
