   I get it about electing a new Pope, but what’s with burning incriminating documents?

   ??? I’m confused — I thought ‘hatred’
   was the purview of the Republicans. Or maybe You haven’t been watching Lindsey Graham or John Boener lately.

   Documents about priest child molesters. The Vatican has refused to release any of them.

   Obviously they are electing a new Pope as they have no incriminating documents to destroy. Just more secularists’ propaganda and lies directed against people of faith.

   What do you expect? Honesty??? Bet Luckovich has never said one thing about anything that Obama has done, like Benghazi.

   Seems the Pope was the arch bishop in charge of securing all of the files on priest pedophiles, not really sure if it was his responsibility to take action on but he was the man in charge of the vatican’s “investigations”.
   His abdication is more likely due to age and health issues though.

   It’s obvious they’re burning incriminating documents covering up the corrupt catholic church’s many crimes against humanity. The world would be much better off without any more corrupt pope-a-dopes.

   The “pope”?? Ain’t that the guy that lives in a gilded palace, wears ermin robes, has a “man” help him dress everyday and thinks he speaks for Jesus the Christ?? Who cares!!

    Faith in what? In the superstitions, hallucinations, wishful thinking, folklore, psychosis, ignorance, fear, and mythical stories of ignorant people who lived 2000 years ago? Do you really believe there was a Garden of Eden with a talking serpent, or Noah’s Ark really existed and sailed to the Galapagos to save the tortoises and Australia to pick up a pair of dingoes, or that Lot’s wife was really turned into a pillar of salt, or that all those silly mythological stories are factual? If you do then I suggest you seek counseling because they’re just made up stories like all the myths of all cultures such as Zeus and his mother hiding him from his father Kronus who thought he’d swallowed him whole or the Isis and Osiris story or any of a thousand others. Are you aware that dozens of other primitive societies had virgin birth myths before the early christians adapted it for themselves. If you’re a grown-up and still don’t know the difference between myth and reality, you may end up abetting child abuse and other horrors. Grow up!

    If you saw the third movie of the “Godfather” series, with Al Pacino, it painted the Catholic church’s highest-placed people as comparable to a highly secretive crime family.
    Of course that was a movie, but many people believe the Vatican has enough secrets to fill the Grand Canyon…so it would follow that many of those secrets would involve activities of an illegal (or highly suspect) nature…
    I’m just saying… …
