    Are the people in high positions in Rome so removed from reality that they refuse to see how offensive this whole mishandling of money is to the faithful practicing Catholic who supports their parish, their diocesan fundraising programs and other organizations that do charitable work! It is an outrage that there is so little accountability as to where and in support of what causes money donated worldwide is spent.
  • @followjesusonly1
    I find it very interesting that a cardinal can be convicted and jailed for the criminal mishandling of Vatican funds, but simple priests suffer no such consequence for the criminal sexual mishandling of the children under their care. Why aren't Catholic parishioners bringing this clear case of hypocrisy to their hierarchy's attention. It appears money has far more value to them than their own children.

    May you have a peaceful and blessed Christmas. Thanks for all you do.
  • Sorry to hear that you will be on holidays now. Well deserved I'm sure, but I would just have liked your assessment of that latest document on same sex marriage.:elbowbump:
  • @cathiuy5878
    That patriarch of Jerusalem did not condemn the Oct 7 atrocities (I may be wrong) though he offered himself in exchange of the hostages - not sure if he actually think Hamas would have agreed to that anyway which I never doubt they wouldn’t 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
  • @4isreal2030
    3 mega stories????? Yet no mention of the mother of all stories pope vrs gay marriage 😮
  • @tjdomerny4847
    John, have you seen Gaza lately? IDF doesn't target civilians???
  • @tjdomerny4847
    John, I'm curious, where did you go to law school?
  • @tomkiely7274
    My earlier query re possible scam was in reference to amazing financial comments since deleted? NOT your news items, also shown on Australian tv!
  • @Ebergerud
    Pitiful. This podcast could be given by Austen Ivereigh or some other member of Team Francis - supporters of the dictator pope. And no justification for Bergoglio's latest debacle concerning "blessing" homosexual couples>? We wouldn't want that. Would it be a sin to hope Bergoglio is called home before the second edition of the Train wreck Synod starts?
  • For his sake, let's hope that St. Mary Major is not the Holy Father's eternal resting place.

    Under the Papacy of Francis our Church is more pastoral,inclusive and welcoming. Dei Gratias
  • I find it difficult to believe the IDF deliberately attacked the only Catholic church in Gaza. Is it possible this was Hamas posing as the IDF?
