Pelosi Calls Pope Meeting ‘Spiritual, Personal and Official’ Honor
Crux ^ | 10/10/21 | John Lavenburg

NEW YORK – Despite ongoing tensions between Nancy Pelosi and a portion of the U.S. Bishops’ Conference over her pro-abortion stance, the Speaker of the House had a private audience with Pope Francis Saturday morning that she called “a spiritual, personal and official honor.”

“His Holiness’s leadership is a source of joy and hope for Catholics and for all people, challenging each of us to be good stewards of God’s creation, to act on climate, to embrace the refugee, the immigrant and the poor, and to recognize the dignity and divinity in everyone,” Pelosi said in a statement.

Pelosi is the third high-level U.S. official to be received in audience by Pope Francis and senior Vatican officials this year, after John Kerry, the special presidential envoy for climate, on May 15, and Antony Blinken, the U.S. Secretary of State, on June 28.

Pelosi was accompanied by her husband, Paul, and by Patrick Connell, the Charges d’Affaires of the United States Embassy to the Holy See. Connell is heading embassy operations awaiting Senate confirmation of former Indiana Sen. Joseph Donnelly as President Joe Biden’s new envoy to the Vatican.

Pro-abortion Catholic politicians, particularly President Joe Biden and Pelosi, have been a frequent, sometimes contentious topic among the U.S. bishops with a number of prelates advocating that they, and others, be barred from communion.

In Pelosi’s case, the back and forth between her and Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco – Pelosi’s home diocese – are well documented. The latest chapter is the “Rose and Rosary for Nancy” campaign Cordileone launched at the end of September.

When you make the Borgia popes look good frankie, you know you have a failed papacy. A real pope, a Christian pope, would have excommunicated her.

Well, SOME of Satan’s Minions still pretending the opposite of the truth.

Not sure who they think they are fooling.

In meeting, they irreparably damaged each others credibility. If any remained to be damaged. A variation on “Mutually Assured Destruction”.

She personifies wickedness in the world and the deception of Satan.

“When you make the Borgia popes look good frankie, you know you have a failed papacy. A real pope, a Christian pope, would have excommunicated her”.

That’s true.

But Pelosi calls herself a “devout Catholic” and in the eyes of this “Pope”, she IS a devout Catholic so she will not be excommunicated by him.

She approves the killing of babies and the pope agrees to meet with her? The catholic religion has gone downhill big time.
