Care and concern by those who have negative feelings towards the Church? Since when were these so-called “concerned people” the stakeholders invested in the Church’s state?
It’s going to take a Faithful and conservative Pope and a miracle from God to fix up the past 12 years. There is hope that both are possible. Pray.
I’m so shocked…America has taken the side of the concern trolls.
And, just to be clear, the Jesuit rag, not our fine country!
Of course “those whose feelings towards the Church are decisively negative” are sorry to see Francis go. Their sorrow doesn’t mean Francis is a great man who brought those anti-Catholics closer to Christ. Has anyone seen a surge of conversions of those people to Catholicism? Have they amended their lives because of his example? Of course not.
No, those people who hate the Church are sorry to see Francis go because his death will be, in effect, an interruption of their enemy while he is making a mistake. They like having Francis alive precisely because he is a disaster for the Church.
“The Jesuit Rag is not the country” Thank you Donald McClarey.
