South American Jesuit = Liberation Theologist
As soon as the world discovered the Pope was a South American Jesuit it was a good bet he was a marxist/leninist.
JP2 got rid of a lot of them, but he missed this one.
We are going to be getting regular doses of extreme liberalism and communist blather from the RCC for years and years to come.
He is no longer pope. To be pope you have to be Catholic.
The responses in this thread are absurd.
The letter is obviously a generic form letter response from a staff member thanking for a gift of many books.
The way it is written, it would appropriate response for anyone including a satanist or atheist.
Here is the actual quote:
“His holiness is grateful for the thoughtful gesture and for the feelings which it evoked, hoping for an always more fruitful activity in the service of young generations and the spread of genuine human and Christian values,
There are two parts, one merely thanking for the thoughtful gesture and feelings evoked — thanks for the books the gift was a nice thought and I appreciate that you gave me a gift.
The second part expresses hope for the future — it says I hope in the future you do a better job serving humanity and christianity. This is an equally good thing to say no matter how “good” a christian the person is. Hey, no matter how you’ve done in the past, I hope you do a better job in the future.
No one should expect a book critique or character evaluation in a generic thank you letter for a gift of many books.
There is nothing in the quote that shows it was tailored to the person written. And it isn’t even from the pope, it’s from a staff member.
There are clear signs it is a generic form letter.
The jokes write themselves!
Even homosexuals?
It’ll be interesting to see what Catholic sites say about this blessing.
The article and lesbian didn’t say anything about sending a copy of her book to the Pope.
Who?
Where’d you read that?
Well, it’s from Yahoo, which is very pro-homosexual. The letter sounds like a thank you, but the lesbian said she wasn’t Catholic, and said NOTHING about sending the Pope a copy of her book. Sounds like she’s trying to get her book into more schools. I bet the Catholic websites reveal the truth about this lesbian’s shenanigans.
Well said.
That would be funny, to send a CD of Baptist worship music to the pope and get the blessing....
Surely he doesn’t mean as in fruitcake?
I reread the article. She wrote to Pope Francis after her books came under fire from Christian groups. She “included examples of her works.” But I don’t understand why the Pope, or whomever, wrote about the service of young generations.

I also reread your post, and I think your correct that she doesn’t need to be “haloed.”
Go ahead and do it. You might get a phone call. “Hi. Nice music, thanks.”
I’d respect the denomination too much to pull any prank on it, even if it is obvious they are asleep at the wheel.
You are a gentleman, Hi-Tech, and I have been noticing that for awhile!
Breaking News...Reports suggest The Pope is considering becoming a Christian, may ask Jesus into his life , but at present he is content being called HOLY FATHER
He is also considering joining the ABC The View as a full time cast member
