I too was skeptical from the start and he has done nothing but substantiate my fears— there is a new outrage almost daily. I never put a minute’s worth of credence in the mis-translation theory. This has to be intentional. Didn’t he himself say something after his election that the Cardinals might be sorry they elected him?
Lord, have mercy! Did he say that? I don't recall!
I'm on the same page with you. Either his words and deeds are intentional or he's delegating too much to others with a similar mindset/agenda, and in this case, they didn't give him all of the facts, which I find difficult to believe.
Then there's climate change! Obama insulted the Coast Guard Grads yesterday. The Pope plans to insult all of us in August, I think!
Keep praying.
