What is wrong with this person? (the writer of the article) Is she the Pope’s pope?
I imagine Pope Francis and Cardinal Hummes have decent relations, but the article’s assertion they are bosom buddies is silly. Hummes was regarded as the leading liberal candidate, and Bergoglio (in 2005) the leading conservative. Hummes is affiliated with Liberation Theology; Francis with Liberation And Communion. Hummes’ presence on the balcony was on the balcony as president emeritus for the congregation of clergy. Guilt by association won’t wash.
I don’t have time to watch the whole video. Are there puppets any closer to the altar than decorations in the crowd, or is the author simply trying to let people jump to false presumptions?
To my knowledge, the Pope has a bum knee, with pins in it. His bow in place of a genuflection is perfectly licit.
I watched the video. It is a children’s mass - it is a huge outdoor stadium. I think the writer is out in left field here. No disrespect to the Eucharist in this video.
Anne....trying to be more Catholic than the Pope.
Why is she complaining on a very special and joyous day for Catholics around the world?
I got up really early to see new Pope Francis, forgive if I do refer to the Pope as Pope Francis I from time to time because of first time refering to him with a name that was nevered used by Popes before, I am sadden that Ms. Bernhartz attacks Pope Francis who is just starting out.
PLEASE Ms. Bernhartz, REPENT and TURN BACK to God!
Catechism of the Catholic Church #1378 - Worship of the Eucharist. In the liturgy of the Mass we express our faith in the real presence of Christ under the species of bread and wine by, among other ways, genuflecting or bowing deeply as a sign of adoration of the Lord.
