statement tribute to the late Pope Francis, former president Joe Biden
“It is with great sadness that Jill and I learned of the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis,” Biden wrote this morning. “He was unlike any who came before him. Pope Francis will be remembered as one of the most consequential leaders of our time and I am better for having known him.”
Biden continued, “For decades, he served the most vulnerable across Argentina and his mission of serving the poor never ceased. As Pope, he was a loving pastor and challenging teacher who reached out to different faiths. He commanded us to fight for peace and protect our planet from a climate crisis. He advocated for the voiceless and powerless. He made all feel welcome and seen by the Church. He promoted equity and an end to poverty and suffering across the globe. And above all, he was a Pope for everyone.

Pope Francis was a good man. President Biden is a great statesman. He loyally serves this nation for 5 decades. I am not a Catholic but I have sympathy for their church and the time of transition as they look for a new leader in their faith. Hopefully they have better luck than Republican party in finding one.....
Theres always a maga around to spit out garbage about good people. These very same people would spit shine the shoes of a career criminal awful human being that we have as President.
Pope Francis was a good person

MTG makes a good point ...she said she had quit the Catholic Church because she believed she could not trust its leaders to "protect [her] children from pedophiles" following repeated sexual abuse scandals.....
Francis has said sexually abusive priests are “children of God” who must be loved.............

Pope Francis is known for being the world's conscience because of his concerns for the less fortunate. He questions Trump faith and MAGA agenda. Condemning his immigration policy as crude and inhumane.

Anybody in this thread that leaves their children alone with a priest at the church because they’re studying for their communion or confirmation , or if they have Stations of the Cross or whatever , thinks twice , three times , and probably a fourth about it , if they even let it happen in the first place .
BACK PATTING and KISSING threads are like passing HAM SANDWICHES around over and over-wall

This crisis has affected nearly every family on the globe.
Here how.
Catholic Church takes in tithes and offerings.
The largest plate comes from America however the scandals of Cardinal Law and others moving pediphile priests from parish to parish darkened the amount of attendance.
Catholic churches in America began to close consolidate and parish tithe and offerings began to plummet.
Now what was a vibrant offering to Catholic Charities has become a near break even with local churches trying to pay expenses.
The Church is not the priests or nuns The church is about women , and Family hence why Mother Mary Mother of God is so important to the organization.
Without Mother's confidence in clergy no ( ok not many )Dads are going to bring children to church.
These are the basis of belief. The Church offers hope to humans world wide. It does a great many things to every nation on the planet but it costs money.
I personally do not naturally trust anyone someone has to earn that. But even then I do not want to see my children left alone with anyone but their Mom.
As far as sexual abuse in America. It is sick but as you watch talk shows Oprah, or Steve Wilcox, or really any Dr Phil format you realize it is everywhere. It has no religious, or ethnic , race nationality or nation without this scourge. It is creating monsters ,addicts, sociopaths and whether church, foster care , school, or even within a family this happens every minute of the day some where on the globe ... Maybe it would take a really large AI data base to gather the information and discern an answer. Because I have no capacity to phathom the scope of this crisis.

Rome has run their influence in America as a business. They over the last 500 years since the discovery of Columbus extracted resources for favor of Nations in Europe.
Pope Francis was the first Pope from the Americas and only the second that wasn't from Europe.
The entire Church model Was to gain wealth and distribute it in Europe. That being said no other entity has spread the word of Christianity on a global scale than the Roman Catholic Church.
Although this issue has plagues mankind for the last 5000 years of you go back to the story of Gilidband in sumarian texts. The issue of choice of mate has been debated.
There is a solution but again do you have a super computer with around 100 exaterra bytes and it is free time to spend 5 years for nothing more than to discern this problem and create a viable solution.
This issue is overwhelming for me personally.
