I just learned of the passing of Pope Francis. My heart goes out to the millions of Christians all over the world who loved him.

I was happy to see him yesterday, though he was obviously very ill. But I’ll always remember him for the below homily he gave in the very early days of COVID. It was really quite beautiful.

May God rest his soul.

“At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and His Church,” Farrell announced.

I hope J.D. was not the last person to see him alive.

Not going to say anything bad about the most left wing pope in my lifetime. RIP but glad he’s no longer pope.

“ Church attendance is so far down”

Could it have to do with world wide diddling by priests?

The first and hopefully last Jesuit to ever ascend to the Holy See... Hopefully they will elect a devout and pious Pope who believes in God more than he believes in wokeness.

Catholicism is not a democracy or a club... It is a well established path to a moral life and a guide to the hereafter.

Haven’t we read here that Pope Francis stacked the deck with lefty lib appointments so that the conclave of Cardinals replacing him is sure to produce another lefty, Uber lib woke Pope? May a black woman be named Pope? That gal from the woke Snow White movie, maybe?

Does his replacement have to come from current Cardinals? Ot is it like the US House of Representatives, where the Speaker may be totally outside membership of that body? Heck, do they even need to be Catholic?

It has more to do with the trashing of the liturgy.
