The Pope has really closed the door to VII ecumenism, set the Church back centuries by doing so, and has opened the flood gates for misogynist and gay bashers, and other hate-filled ignorant people. The Pope's piracy for such priests and laity is choosing to gather these sharks to fill the moats surrounding the Catholic Church. The Pope seems to think that piracy is how to lead the "faithful." A true follower of Christ would be a fisher of men and women, not sharks. I laugh at this, while at the same time recognize the insidious nature of his plan (dream). Stocking the Church's moats with hungry sharks should enlighten those who see the dangers of doing so and encourage them to dream a new dream and to have enough faith to walk on water out of shark infested waters, lest they be swallowed up by the pirate's dream.<br /><br />Thank you Colleen for the insight you continue to provide us with on our journey of faith with Jesus. There is much here for us to meditate on so that we may dream a dream that puts papal pirates out of business and Jesus back in the number one position He rightfully belongs in our Church, our hearts, our minds, our souls, our dreams, our world.butterflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09684946870144030594noreply@blogger.com
