Figers...
The leftists are gleeful, pronouncing it “quite clear” that Benedict participated in abuse cover-ups, and claiming it best for the children.
They’re just repeating what they heard, and pretending they thought of it themselves....
Oh, what silliness.
How sad. The Church is riddled with Vatican II influenced leftwingers and homosexuals. First the Jesuits, then the nuns. Can’t blame him for losing heart.
I believe that Pope Benedict had a more profound impact (for good) on the Church than anyone else for the last 100 years. As theologian and professor, Cardinal and Pope.
PBVI used to Ghost Write PJPII encyclicals His Crowds on a weekly basis Outdrew JPJII.
He was the Intellectual Heavyweight of the Church for the last quarter of a century.
Summorum Pontificum was a huge historic accomplishment that required an almost superhuman fight against the entrenched liberal interests in the Church.
The Anglican Ordinariate, likewise, an almost miraculous undertaking and took a huge amount of vision and guts. Probably the most historically significant response to the Reformation since the Council of Trent.
This author is crazy. Benedict’s accomplishments in this short time have been stunning.
What a complete farce of an article.
True, he isn’t well liked but he cleaned the Augean stable with alacrity and speed.
He put in place cardinals who are actually, gasp, steeped in fidelity, obedience and courage.
I'm sure they won't like his successor any more than they liked him, if the new Pope is true to the teachings of Jesus in general, and Catholic doctrine in particular.
What a pantload. He was true to his calling, not to the world stage. I much preferred this Pope to the previous one.
From the pile it higher and deeper crowd, this article is one of the biggest piles of BS I have ever read.
In my parish, Pope Benedict is greatly admired as was Pope John Paul. Both have entirely different personalities and talents, Benedict being the greatest Christian theologian in the world.
The fox news reporter/writer demonstrates why people of any religion should turn off the secular news reporting about their religion and about the affairs of their religious institutions.
Secular reporters should save their reporting about religious leaders and religious institutions for those times when the events of either one spill into secular life.
