I agree with you that what I said was not nice and I’m sorry I said it.

There’s no harm in asking Admin Moderator to pull the post! I hit the “abuse” button on my own posts from time-to-time.

“When you die you’ll suffer eternal damnation”.

><><

I was being sarcastic and I regret saying it. My apologies to you.

Good idea.

I apologized to the person I directed it to.

One of the great papal liturgists of the modern era, an indispensable mind, and completely selfless. Rest in peace, Benedict.

He resigned because the College and the Vaticans wanted a Jesuit Marxist.

Joseph frequently referred to himself as a simple shepherd. He was not part of the College hivemind, and that is why he resigned.

'You called me to shepherd the flock, but now you call the flock by another name which I do not recognize, so you must have another shepherd.'

I believe, still to this day, that Obama had something to do with it.

The last honest pope, he was forced out by the homo wing of the vatican.
May God avenge.

The good one dies. The evil one marches on. Pretty typical of humanity these days.

No way does the current Pope draw crowds like this!

I was going to reply, but I hit view replies instead.

I have little doubt that you were accurately reporting the headline, and the headline writer was accurately reporting his ignorance.

Call her Cal.

(She does note elsewhere she was simultaneously exercising sarcasm and bad judgment).

I think that what may be preventing Pope Francis from taking retirement is that having two retired Popes simultaneously is absurd. It wouldn’t surprise me if he hangs it up in the next 6 months.

That said, I trust the Holy Spirit to know when it is best to call a conclave.

Pope Francis is an interloper who was installed by the Left. I am afraid of who might follow...

At the moment you die, you go through a particular judgment — and you can see your whole life flash in front of you. It’s not a damnation thing, more a “how you lived your life” thing.

The general judgment is what we all picture in our minds with those people in white robes accompanying Christ to heaven and those left behind are headed foor the netherworld.
