My assumption was that you belong to the SSPX, based on your overall character and the home page. If you are not, and still bashing the Pope, then no one including yourself knows what you are.

"Belong?" No, I'm not an SSPX priest, bishop, sister, or brother.

My homepage shows nothing more than a picture of and a prayer to Pope St. Pius X. Its there for no other reason than to express my admiration and love for him, as I believe he was truly a great Pope. Quite possibly the greatest.

It is he who said to be very leery of "new apostles eagerly attempting to do better by a common interchange of vague idealism and civic virtues." And people who "dream of re-shaping society [...] and of establishing on earth 'the reign of love and justice' with workers coming from everywhere, of all religions and of no religion, with or without beliefs, so long as they forego what might divide them - their religious and philosophical convictions, and so long as they share what unites them."

My "overall character"? You're the last person here who should be finding fault with the character of other people.

And what does your overall character demonstrate? Well, it demonstrates that I might be right: That the late Pope really didn't have the profound influence and impact you believe he did. He implored us to always "dialogue" with "respect" always remembering the "dignity" of others - and he made no distinctions. (Not even with the man who tried to take his life.) Have you done likewise here with murphe or me? Not in the least. You bring more harm to his memory than I ever could. You want me to see the positive influence he had on people? Try showing he had any on you first.
