Pope Francis I. is a good guy and wants to spend all church/vatican money to help the poor? 1. He would be assassinated before the Cardinals/Iluminati/Jesuits/shadow-group X allowed him to liquidate the wealth of the Vatican (rumored to be rivaled by only that of the Queen of England and the Rothschild Empire.) 2. I would point you to the Gospel reading for today: John 12:1-8 (Mary anoints Jesus for his burial) Six days before the Passover Jesus came to Bethany, the home of Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. There they gave a dinner for him. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those at the table with him. Mary took a pound of costly perfume made of pure nard, anointed Jesus' feet, and wiped them with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was about to betray him), said, "Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?" (He said this not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief; he kept the common purse and used to steal what was put into it.) Jesus said, "Leave her alone. She bought it so that she might keep it for the day of my burial. You always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me."

I sincerely hope that he is. But it doesn't make any difference. The Roman church needs to repent of its extermination of the Albigensians for teaching precisely the same Doctrine that Jesus taught: that the Doctrine of "resurrection" is a Doctrine of 'Rebirth'. Until that happens, this civilization's feet are very firmly set upon the road that leads to the horrors of the "time of trouble" Prophesied in Chapter 12, verse 1 of the Book of Daniel. Michael |

She is actually quite high up. The zionist banksters have a strong grip over the finances, a fact that upsets quite a few. Some popes have had a sincere desire to make things better, to deal with the corruption, but the evil forces are strong. Francis background and "aura" actually makes me a bit hopeful! |

"Al Jazeera's Lucia Newman, reporting from the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires, said that Francis revealed what he would have done if elected as pope, in an interview with an Argentinian journalist, shortly before he left to the Vatican. "One of the things he said he would have done is to eradicate the corruption from the 'guilded palaces' of the Vatican. He also said that the Vatican Bank needs to be cleaned up and made transparent immediately, and that 'everyone knew' who the corrupt cardinals were in the Vatican," Newman said. "So he clearly plans to do some serious housecleaning, now that he is in charge," she added. Projecting an image as a simple man of the people, the pope chose to name himself after St Francis of Assisi, the 13th-century saint who shunned the riches of his family to devote himself to God and the poor. The Vatican revealed that, for the ride back to the conclave lodgings after Wednesday's election, Francis shunned the papal limousine with the "Vatican City State One" number plates, opting instead to board a minibus with the cardinals. It was in keeping with his image as a man who as archbishop of Buenos Aires chose to live in a modest apartment rather than the official residence and took buses to work."

Being poor means you can't get off your ass and do something for yourself. There's no excuse except for the children born to poor minded eaters. No matter how "poor" you are, you can always walk away. You can always plant some food somewhere. You can always TRY! But those who simply give up have a poor mind and the earth doesn't need them and neither does humanity. |

Seriously I wish non catholics would just mind their own business with all due respect. The Catholic Church does a lot for the poor via anonymous people and relatively unknown organizations you probably will never hear of. And God will protect the Pope. You really give too much importance to wordly things. Gods will is ultimately always done. |
