Arab Spring worked out so well for everyone.
Interesting.
I didn’t know, or had forgotten about, that one on one meeting between evil Barry and Pope Benedict.
Ping!
> If Pope Benedict was all he is purported to be, then why would he ever submit to such a cabal? <
You beat me to it. That was my question also. And no, I won’t buy the excuse that he was somehow threatened. Benedict is well aware of the importance of martyrs. So I don’t think he’d shy away from risking his own life.
Something else has to be going on. Just what, I have no idea.
You are not the only one.
Pope Benedict retires (virtually unheard of!) and a radically leftist pope takes his place, all at the height of leftist power, with President Obama at the helm.
But it was a simple coincidence...
That reminds me of one of my favorite lines from Hudson Hawk: The Pope warned me never to trust the CIA.
Is there anything the Obama/Clinton team didn't corrupt?
Or...and maybe this is crazy...but just maybe he was telling the truth, that he was tired and his health wasn't great, that he'd hoped to retire before even being named pope, and that he didn't feel he was up to the challenges of leading a vast worldwide organization in a time of crisis.
The present arch-bishop of Washington D.C. is an extremist racist liberal from Atlanta who has roots in that Chicago diocese.
> but just maybe he was telling the truth, that he was tired and his health wasn’t great, that he’d hoped to retire before even being named pope <
That’s quite possible, of course. Maybe it’s even probable. But there have been many tired and sick popes throughout history. Very few have resigned. And Benedict, being a traditionalist, does not seem to be the type of guy to cut and run.
Besides that, I love a good conspiracy.
You are flat out wrong.
PING
NEW EVIDENCE EMERGES THAT THE REAL REASON POPE BENEDICT SUDDENLY ‘RETIRED’ WAS BECAUSE OF END TIMES CABAL HEADED BY GEORGE SOROS, BARACK OBAMA AND HILLARY CLINTON
Catholics Ask Trump to Probe Soros-Obama-Clinton Conspiracy at Vatican
The most credible speculation has been that he was pressured to resign by people within Italian intelligence who was doing an investigation of cover ups of sexual abuse by Church officials and irregularities in the Vatican Bank
The evidence for this was pretty compelling

Would love to know what POTUS Trump told Frank.
GEOTUS probably showed him transcripts of the meeting between the two Usurpers, based on NSA intercepts.
God bless him - prayers up that he may survive this.
Italy, the former regime, was part of the coup against Donald Trump. We can bet the same players were in on sacking Pope Benedict.
Good retort, it was needed, thanks for stepping into the breech.
You both beat me to it and that’s also my question. If he was “all that”...and if a Pope is the defender of the Faith first and foremost...he should have said “bring it big boy” if this conspiracy is true-that is. Seems more likely that he was blackmailed out of the position. Otherwise-he should be spilling the beans if he’s a hero and truly loves the Lord and His church. Why would he let the devil (and make no mistake-Francis is a devil in Papal garb) have it?
It has been 700 years since a Pope retired. Pope Francs is Obama’s Pope.
