[Catholic Caucus] 11 February 2013: One of the saddest days in the history of the Catholic Church and larger modern society.

One of the saddest days in the history of the Catholic Church and larger modern society. One of the saddest decades. Twelve years ago today.

I will NEVER figure out why such a GOOD and DECENT POPE resigned!!!

There are reports that Obama and the US deep-state threatened Benedict with sanction and bankruptcy of the entire Church, via the Vatican Bank. It would kick them off the SWIFT system and create crippling financial sanctions under pretext of a money-laundering investigation.

Lo and behold, we were then given the marxist Pope Francis.

WASHINGTON — Sweeping into office in 2009, President Barack Obama captured near rock-star status around the world among millions who saw him as the embodiment of a new sense of social purpose. Now, that baton has largely been passed to Pope Francis, whose visit to the White House next month will put his common cause with Obama on vivid display.

Obama has made no secret of his affection for the outspoken pope, calling him a “transformative leader” whose influence has transcended the Roman Catholic community. The pope has embraced many of the issues Obama has sought to advance, including global warming, poverty and diplomacy with Iran and Cuba.

Vice President Joe Biden, a Catholic, said the pope’s Sept. 23 visit will mark an important moment not only for Catholics but for all Americans.

“Pope Francis has breathed new life into what I believe is the central mission of our faith: Catholic social doctrine,” Biden said in a statement to The Associated Press. Invoking key elements of Obama’s agenda, Biden added that Francis “has become a moral rudder for the world on some of the most important issues of our time, from inequality to climate change.”

“HE CARRIED HIS OWN LUGGAGE” The masses gushed...

The lightworker the “fundamentally transform” the USA.

The marxist to fundamentally transform Christianity.

here is one version of it. There’s certainly no discussion of Benedict’s abdication in the MSM.

The original story of “health issues” is clearly nonsense, because Benedict lived another 10 years after he gave up the Papacy.
