Norm 3/13/2013 4:06:10 PM ReportLet's pray, hope, that the new Pope is sincere in pointing the Catholic church in the right direction. Looks into, and does something about the child abuse that has turned hoardes away from that religion.

Boris 3/13/2013 11:28:09 PM ReportThe Cardinals were told that they could not have sexual relations with young boys until a pope was selected. He was selected in record time.
Boris 3/13/2013 11:32:55 PM ReportIs it a pre-requisite of priest hood that you have to be a child molester?

rcssm69 3/14/2013 6:59:05 AM ReportMissing33years...
You're missing something...that's for sure!!! To start, a primary education is definitely lacking! The rest are self-explanatory!
I know there are some big words here, but take your time and you will realize that "YES", I am insulting you and your (lack of) intelligence!!!
eds 3/14/2013 10:04:37 AM Reportgood grief what a bunch of uneducated, unaware and misinformed posters.
crashed13 3/14/2013 10:47:00 AM ReportWhat a outdated organization.
In a time when women are elected Premier of provinces ,Prime Ministers and presidents of countries they still act like women never got the vote yet.
newcon 3/14/2013 12:18:37 PM ReportReligion and Politics...no time for peace.
Before people condemn (rightfully so)the Catholic Church for all it's (despicable) transgressions, please note that the muslim COWARD mohammad, prophet of allah, was also a "pedophile" and "slave master". Please don't single out just one organization as these two are equally sub-human but "one" less evil. At least the Catholic org. doesn't condone stoning of women and dismemberment for petty theft. Also as a point of interest there is more poverty and grief within the islamic world than there is the Christian "sponsored" world. On a positive note though...the "Clash of Civilizations" is inevitable but at least chavez is now out of the picture.
syndi 3/14/2013 7:29:06 PM ReportSaultguy41.....no disrespect intended towards you or your comment, but did you just figure that out? I have been saying the same thing for months now!LOL Hope you have a nice day and don't have to endure too many imbecilic comments towards yourself. That seems to be the best nearly all of these "bloggers" can come up with lately.
newcon 3/15/2013 11:17:42 AM ReportPeople are unfamiliar with this new Pope's involvement with Argentina's "Dirty War",1976-83. The Catholic Church actually had priests stationed in the "torture rooms" blessing the torturers as they performed their hideous (criminal)duties. To this day Bergoglio refuses to support investigations and trials with respect to the "Junta" that systematically slaughtered Left Wing opponents.
The Catholic Church, as an entity, is a hypocrite.
