When leftist Bolivian president Evo Morales on Thursday presented Pope Francis with a “communist crucifix” – a carving of Christ crucified on the hammer of a hammer and sickle – the Pope's only reaction was to say, “This is not ok,” while shaking his head.
Shortly after his July 8 arrival at the Bolivian administrative capital of La Paz, Pope Francis made a courtesy visit to Morales at the Palace of Government. At such meetings, the leaders customarily exchange gifts; Pope Francis gave the Bolivian president a mosaic of the Marian icon of the “Salus Populus Romani,” her role as patroness of Rome.
Morales explained what his gift to the Pope was as he gave it to him. In the video, filmed by the Vatican Television Center and transmitted throughout the world, the Pope's disapproval of the gift can be seen, and he says “No está bien eso” – “This is not ok” – while shaking his head.
While the audio is a bit marred by the clicking of journalists' cameras, the embarrassment of the Pope seems clear.

And then scold him as you did me.
Absolutely disgusting!
I wouldn’t want to be standing within a 1000’ of Pope Francis on a clear day, let alone during a thunderstorm.
They stooped so low as to distribute the Body of Christ from paper bags.
We can all thank JPII for starting all of this.
Thanks for posting a close up of what the pope is wearing.
If you are so blind as to not see that the Pope is a Marxist, then I can’t help you.
I didn’t ask you to help me.
I asked you to provide definitive proof, for general consideration.
If what you say is the truth, it will be easy to verify.
It is easy to verify. I encourage the use of Google, and reading recent communications from the Pope. I do not encourage asking other people to do your work for you.
Sir, (and fellow Christian),
I did not ask you to do my work for me.
I asked you to verify YOUR work (words), which was to make the claim that Pope Francis “is a Marxist.” Respectfully, for that reason, I don’t want to do your work for you.
In all matters in my life, as a Catholic (therefore, a Christian), I wish to be committed to truth.
I, too, am a Christian, an American Patriot, a Constitutionalist, a spouse, a parent.
I am also a brother in the Lord.
