The Vatican on Monday offered to help the United States in its efforts to close Guantanamo prison, a goal fervently supported by Pope Francis.

He’s going to fly down there for a lot of “Last Rights”
Has the pope offered to help Obama close the abortion stores, where they dismember human beings for profit?
I said it before,”Beware of the Jesuits. They have always been a problem”. Disclaimer..I went to a Dominican H.S.
Shut your pizza hole, Papa.
I am a Christian/practicing Catholic and I really wish this Pope would stick to his mandate and simply tend to his flock...

Then the Joe Biden of Popes can take charge of the little misunderstood waifs at GITMO and bring them to the Vatican.
He’s just a misguided liberal.

I think his retirement played into the hands of “modernists” in the Church, however.
Revelation 17:2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
It's coming!
