I know there had been hope that the Pope would make a stop
at the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help in Green Bay, WI -
the sole Marian apparition site in North America, staffed by the great
Fathers of Mercy out of Kentucky.

I have met Pope Benedict (extremely briefly) but would LOVE to meet this wonderful Pope. Probably not a chance.

I am already sick of this phony Pope. Bring back the real Pope instead of this Obama progressive clone.

He should visit the Smithsonian and use it to issue an ex cathedra statement making evolution an official Catholic doctrine (which it already is in all but name).

Of course, this will cost him some supporters of his ecumenism among some of his Protestant admirers . . . so some good will come of it.

Following his stop at the White House, the pontiff would go on to celebrate Mass at Washington’s Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.

The Mass at the Shrine is probably conditional, pending how exhausted the Pope will be from his long plane trip and his meet and greet with his fellow tree-hugging socialist.

the funny thing is, is that the NJ KofC knew about all this about a year ago: Wash. D.C., the UN and Philadelphia...didn't know about madison square garden or visiting a prison in PA...I just rolled my eyes when the archbishop and the press wouldn't admit to anything until the Vatican confirmed the visit..

“Our plan is not to have a huge Mass outside of Philadelphia, because the focus will really be Philadelphia, because the Pope is going to the United States for the World Meeting of Families,” he explained.

the kofc was told to expect 1.5 - 2 million people for the mass, I don't know if that is huge to them or not, it is to me!!! we were told that 5,000 - 7,000 kofc volunteers from 5 states will be needed.

He’ll probably visit a gay bar.

Wow - D.C. (Wuerl-ville and anti-Catholic-B-O-ville), NYC (Dolan-ville and anti-Catholic-UN-ville - see "United Nations Calls Catholic Church’s Pro-Life Teachings 'Promoting Torture'" for quick example), and Philly (see this first list of Catholic Churches slated to close in Philadelphia - more likely to come).

In advance of those stops in the USA (and as a quick review), please check out the following links:

Click here to read "Archbishop [Cardinal] Wuerl Refuses to Deny Communion to Pro-Abortion [former] Speaker Pelosi" (in violation of Catholic Church Canon Law 915).

Click here to read how Cardinal Dolan Refuses to deny Communion to pro-abortion and pro-homosexual marriage Governor Cuomo (in violation of Catholic Church Canon 915).

Here are some links relating to Cardinal Burke, and his clear, unequivocal statements concerning Canon 915, and its proper application, as well as his discussion about the evils of the sins of abortion, homosexual "marriage", and the blatant approval of homosexual activities and lifestyles, which was clearly demonstrated by some bishops in the recent synod of bishops:

During his upcoming visit here, will Pope Francis effectively correct these two sin-abetting Cardinal-Archbishops (Dolan and Wuerl), and end the grave harm they are doing?    Will he address the evils the UN is pushing, and the evils the US president is pushing, and the evils the US congress is pushing?

Did Cardinal Burke's recent clear statements on the truth about the Holy Eucharist and the related evil sin of receiving Communion unworthily, the evil sin of abortion support, and the evil sin of support of homosexual "marriage" and of ongoing homosexual activities/lifestyles, play a major part in his getting "the bum's rush" from his offices within the Church from Pope Francis?

(These are not questions to be taken lightly, and it should be interesting to see what happens.)

The Pope’s visit will be fascinating. In the way that a bus in flames at the bottom of a cliff is fascinating. He will snuggle with Obama, thus further demoralizing all Catholics in America.

Pope Francis could spend a couple of nights in New York, but “it depends” on what else comes up.

It depends on whether he can score tickets to "The Book of Mormon."

I propose a theme for this visit as well as every word he ever utters, starting today

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.

Proverbs 26:4 King James Version (KJV)
