I agree. The Vatican has a cool flag though.  Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

Those are Jesus rivets, blessed by a cardinal. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

??? Cordless drill with the right bit. Six instead of 4 makes a little harder but can't let a little thing stop a heist. Wouldn't stop Danny Ocean! The President is a fink. |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | This is how the new pope handled the priest abuse scandals in Argentina, by ignoring them. "Jorge Mario Bergoglio (Francis) was archbishop of Buenos Aires from 1998 to 2013 and president of the Argentine bishops’ conference from 2005 to 2011. During these years, as church officials in the US and Europe began addressing the catastrophe of child sexual abuse by clergy – and even as Popes John Paul II and Benedict made public statements – Bergoglio stayed silent about the crisis in Argentina. He released no documents, no names of accused priests, no tallies of accused priests, no policy for handling abuse, not even an apology to victims. In his many homilies and statements (archived on the Buenos Aires archdiocesan website), he attacked government corruption, wealth inequities, and human sex trafficking, but he said nothing about sexual violence by priests." You have to ask, who the heck is this guy. http://www.bishop-accountability.org/Argentina/ If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Watching cannibalism makes me hungry. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

It's a big state. It has its capital in Rome, it's army in Switzerland and its population in Latin America. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

How about a summary of the trip when you get back? Like I said before, I've gone to places where the CEO was stopping by, but I just cannot imagine your excitement level so please share. Is this the first Papal visit you have been to or did you see one of the former Popes when they came this way? The President is a fink. |
