Pope’s Beatitudes Highlight Care for Environment and Outsiders

WSJ ^ | November 1, 2016 | FRANCIS ROCCA

Pope Francis proposed a new set of contemporary Beatitudes here, adding environmentalism and ecumenism to the core set of Christian ideals such as meekness and mercy enunciated by Jesus in the Bible.

I am a devout Catholic and active in many ministries in my local parish and I believe that this Pope is doing great harm to our Church. I have not liked him from the beginning and was alarmed after Pope Benedict “resigned” which was almost unprecedented claiming “health issues”. This coming after the wonderful example of Pope John Paul II, now St. John Paul II, and his example of persevering despite his failing health. Then when the Cardinals elect a socialist from Argentina alarms went off in my head. I am sick of what this impostor is doing to my church.

Writing scripture again.

You say that as if you think the Holy See lacks the authority to do so. {grin}

What's a see?

It's a little better than a Dee, and a little worse than a Bee.

Personally, I'm more inclined to give him an Eff, as in "Holy Eff, WTF?"
