Thousands of kids raped and sodomized over several decades does not seem to bother the pope. Millions dying from Aids – who cares. Even the threat of arrest holds no sway. However, now the line has been crossed. Someone has created a “schedule” of what the pope could do while in Britain. A list of things that would make the world a better place. Sadly, they all seem to go against everything the church stands for. Here is the list….
Launch of ‘Benedict’ condomsReview of Vatican attitude on condom useBless a civil partnershipReversal of policy on women bishops/ordain womanOpen an abortion wardSpeech on equalityStatemen on views over adoption (change of stance)Training course for all bishops on child abuse allegationsHarder line on child abuse—announce sacking of dodgy bishopsVatican sponsorship for network of AIDS clinicsMeet young unemployed peopleApologize for… …Canonise/pseudo canonise a groupAnnounce whistle blowing system for child abuse casesGo to job centreDebate on abortionAll catholic schools should be free entry to allSpeech on democracyVatican and C of E funded committee on dialogueLaunch helpline for abused children
So…. What do you think. Which is your favorite? What would you add?
Well… Now the Pope is PISSED! He may even cancel his trip to Britain. If the British do not bow down and kiss his ring. Oh gasp – I may get the vapors….. What will the British do if they aren’t forced to spend millions of Pounds to pamper the pope on his holiday?
One highly-placed source in the Vatican said: “This could have very severe repercussions and is embarrassing for the British government – one has to question whether the action taken is enough.
“It is disgusting. Britain’s ambassador to the Holy See has been in to see the Secretary of State and explain what happened and this will all be relayed to the Pope.
“It’s even possible the trip could be cancelled as this matter is hugely offensive.”
Cardinal Renato Martino, the former head of the Vatican’s Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, said: “The British government has invited the Pope as its guest and he should be treated with respect.
“To make a mockery of his beliefs and the beliefs of millions of Catholics not just in Britain but across the world is very offensive indeed.”
“hugely offensive”??? Well I say the pope can pound sand! They should tell him to stay home and get his own house in order. Child Rape is hugely offensive!
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye. Matthew 7:5
The British government is now saying sorry. WHAT???
The Foreign Office responded by sending Francis Campbell, the British ambassador to the Vatican, to an urgent meeting with senior officials of the Holy See, and said the “foolish document” had not been cleared or shown to ministers or senior officials before it was circulated.
A spokesman added that “many of the ideas in the document are clearly ill-judged, naïve and disrespectful” and the department was “deeply sorry for the offence which it has caused”.
How very sad.
