From the original article:

“...While welcoming the statement made by Pope Francis in the Plurinational State of Bolivia in July 2015, in which he apologized for the actions of the Catholic Church in the context of colonialism against indigenous peoples in the Americas.”

A hard Leftist such as the current Pope certainly would not bring himself to also point out the the Catholic Church is responsible for preserving the works of Western civilization after Rome fell, and acknowledging the rightly sainted Charles Martel for staving off an Islamic conquest of Europe that would have resulted in our civilization being utterly destroyed — and the entirety of humanity being set back, politically, socially, economically and technologically for centuries if not millennia.
