ah, so the Holy Father only plans to meet her as a head of state

as he would similarly meet with, say, child murderers and cannibals like former “national leaders” Idi Amin and Emperor Bokassa

Why don't you wait until AFTER the meeting to pass judgment, or is taking another cheap shot at the Pope just too tempting?

The Pope only cares about political and religious P O W E R and gaining more, by associating with/influencing those who have it. Pelosi is a disgrace; she supports every kind of abortion imaginable including sucking the brains out of children 7/8ths of the way out of the birth canal. Pelosi is directly responsible for the disgraceful abortion policy of the American government and she willfully, vocally, politically has and is doing everything within her power to see that it continues and flourishes. The blood of millions are upon her hands. The Pope, knows ALL OF THIS and rather than vocally condemning, excommunicating her and holding her accountable as a "Roman Catholic" he shows his true colors and motives and chooses instead to meet with her.

If he were a genuine man of God, and not a religious charlatan he would be bringing down the hammer upon her and her wickedness. But like I said; his actions speak louder than words, all he cares about is P O W E R and associating with those who have it. That is exactly what this audience with her is all about. Interestingly enough, this is the exact same stand Rome took regarding Democratic politicians who were actively participating in and condoning all kinds of wickedness prior to the last election. Rather than vocally condemning them, refusing them communion and excommunicating them and holding them spiritually accountable as a "Roman Catholics" Rome showed its true colors and motives and chooses instead to give them all a pass.

The pope may decry abortion, etc…, but when the rubber meets the road, talk is cheep.

Remember, it is all about P O W E R, money and influence. That is the reason why he is meeting with Pelosi... she is politically powerful and influential.
