Pope to say D.C. Mass in Spanish in bow to 'Hispanic population'
Washington Examiner ^ | 2 Sep 15 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 09/02/2015 3:50:40 PM PDT by SkyPilot

In a bow to the huge U.S. Hispanic population and the Catholic Church's advocacy of immigration, Pope Francis plans to give his Washington Mass Sept. 23 in Spanish, according to Cardinal Donald William Wuerl.

"The Mass is going to be in Spanish," Wuerl said Wednesday while previewing the pope's trip to reporters.

"It's a recognition of how large the Hispanic population in the United States is," said Wuerl, Archbishop of Washington. "And he's coming as the first pope from the New World and the predominant language in this hemisphere is Spanish," added Wuerl of the Argentine-born pope.

Francis, meanwhile, will use his address to Congress to call for bipartisanship, something missing for several years as Republicans and President Obama have jockeyed for power. In that speech he will speak English.

The figure of the Christ, but none of the reverence. What Could Go Wrong?

No. It's spitting in our faces.

“God! Am I glad I left the church forty-five years ago.”

I left 48 years ago, but I went to a nondenominational conservative Christian church.

This is AMERICA. Get the F*** out of my country, A**HOLE. God agrees with me BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT A MAN OF GOD, POPE. You are an EVIL AGENT of the U.N. NWO CABAL POSING AS A POPE.

Gee...that’s great.

El Papa coming to consolidate the overthrow of the evil Protestant edifice known as the United States. Or the Junited Estates, I forget which...

Guess he wants to reassert the Treaty of Tordesillas.

The Pope represents God just as Odunga represents the U.S. Constitution.

This Christ child he talks of apparently is a rubber stamp for a humanly ginned up socialist system? To encourage them when it keeps blowing up in their faces?

Um, I don’t think so.

I never thought I’d say the Pope is rude. Or that the Pope is a Marxist who wants to deindustrialize western nations and redistribute their wealth to third world dictators.

Spit.

I’m sure that Trump will tell His Holiness that he should set an example by speaking English.

In what language will the Argentinian communist tell us to open our borders and destroy our homeland?
