What would Christ want? Would Christ want 40 million babies aborted in the womb?
On the sunnier side of the street, Francis is already in his late 70s and Cupich is 65. I am coming to the conclusion that the election of Francis was a grave mistake by the 2013 Conclave of Cardinals each and every one of whom was appointed by either Saint John Paul II or Benedict XVI. Mistakes are made in appointing cardinals by otherwise quite Catholic popes but someone appointed Wuerl, O'Malley, McPhony, the unlamented Bernardin, Madariaga (?) of Honduras and several other obvious mistakes.
One suspects that the next conclave will expend extra care on seeing to it that the blunder of 2013 is not repeated.
Cupich is an execrable excuse for a priest, much less a bishop, an archbishop and, obviously, a cardinal to be. He is awful in his bootlicking of an increasingly pagan culture. In Spokane, he would not "allow" Forty Days for Life protests in which, during the forty days of Lent, pro-lifers (not all of them Catholic by any means) would hold pro-life picket signs peacefully outside abortion mills on public sidewalks. He is a rank disgrace. Expect him to go into overdrive mouthing off against our military, against capitalism, against pro-lifers, against the sexually normal, in favor of the notorious Fr. Pfleger and Jesse Jackson. Bernardin is alive again!
If you put five hundred bishops' names in a hat and pulled one at random, all but maybe three, would have been a better choice. Expect Cupich and Francis to spend the rest of their lives sucking up to limousine leftists in a mad search for money and striving never to offend rich people whose daughters might want abortions and whose sons and daughters want "liberated" sex lives, believing that the Church should just shut up, mind its own business and leave the young to live as they please. The limousine crowd also believes, with Ted Kennedy, that spending other people's tax money on the poor will absolve them of their sins.
Of course He would be opposed to Francis.
