Donald R. McClarey

He loved and is *still* loving us.
Even though we don’t deserve it.
Amazing Grace.
My prediction: it’ll be all about welcoming illegal immigrants, LGBTQs, etc.; all about social justice, loving mother Earth, etc.; and all about condemning mean capitalists, arms merchants, gringo Americans like Donald Trump, traditionalist Catholics, etc.
John 12:4-6
4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was about to betray him), said, 5 “Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?” 6 (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.)
LQC, you beat me to this prediction, or rather PF has beaten me to the point where that is what I too expect.
Yeah I’m worried how he is going to spin it. What value could he possibly add to an already perfect devotion – Our Lords Sacred Heart.
So far, the Bishop of Rome does not move me to be anything but skeptical.
Next.
It occurs to me that it would be far better to have an almost completely contemplative pope to pray for us than one who feels the need for constant talk. As many have said, our age has indeed lost the gift of silence.
