- Go to WHITE SMOKE, WHITE HAIR, A 78 YEAR OLD POPE
Passionflower, I understand your concern; however, that was just a small minority of Priest. Though I am Protestant, I know the majority of the Priest in America and around the world are not like that. What about what Clinton did in the oval office, we impeached him, but did not remove him, but what he did does not make all Presidents bad, does it?

DarkeThoughts - I can't really speak for God in the sense that I know exactly what He might be saying, but in my heart, what I believe he is saying "as you embrace the new, don't be so quick to throw out the time tested wisdom of the past, especially that which is recorded in the Holy Bible.

I jumped to the same conclusion that DarrkeThoughts did.
How do WE know God sent this new pope? The Catholic Church allowed young boys to be molested by their priests for 30 yrs and swept it under the rug so their church wouldn't be embarrassed. Can you imagine what it might be like to be a small boy of 8 yrs old and have some old man in robes fu**ing you in the ass every week in church???
If I were God, I'd still be very, very angry about that sh*t!!!!

What is it that the new pope represents that you think God wants for us to hear? When people write in a general way like you have in this post it's easy for me to jump to conclusions and misinterpret what you are trying to say because of stereotypes I have.
