Why did this broad even show up for an audience with the Pope? What world are we living in now where some idiot shows up at a state event to meet a world leader just to say she can’t shake his hand or give a customary greeting? Why not just skip the meeting entirely?

There ya go.
If his office so offends her she should have skipped it
and sent a Jew who is man enough to shake hands with a head of state

Am I to assume that you are one who also thinks Kim Davis should have either issued the same-sex marriage licenses or resigned?

From the description above, it doesn't sound like Rivkah was rude. She politely explained why her faith did not allow her to follow the same customs that most who visit the Pope would follow. It doesn't sound like the Pope was offended - why are so many on here offended?
