Pope lunches with poor, denounces church attacks

How sweet… The Pope has lunch with a couple of hundred poor people, while in the photograph below, one can clearly see the opulence that surrounds him and his henchmen. The Vatican has enough wealth to feed the entire country of Italy for a year and at the end of that year the Roman Catholic Church would still be filthy rich.

The last couple of paragraphs in the article are particularly interesting, as the Pope talks about making children feel secure. The Catholic Church, saturated with gay, pedophile and abusive priests and nuns, is certainly not a secure environment for children; quite the contrary. TGO

VATICAN CITY – Lasagna, veal and cake were on the menu Sunday as Pope Benedict XVI invited about 250 poor people to join him for a post-Christmas lunch and denounced as “absurd” new attacks on the faithful around the globe.

Joining the pope and his guests were some 250 nuns, seminarians and priests of Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity order, which runs soup kitchens around Rome.

Last year, Benedict traveled to a Rome soup kitchen to join the poor but this year’s meal was held inside the Vatican’s main audience hall.

The feast included lasagna with homemade Bolognese sauce; veal chunks with roasted potatoes, traditional yellow Christmas cake with chocolate bits and Chantilly cream, and coffee.

Before the meal, Benedict delivered his traditional Sunday blessing from his studio window, denouncing Christmas Day attacks on the faithful in the Philippines and Nigeria and a suicide bombing in Pakistan that killed 45 people at an aid center.

“Once again, the earth is stained by blood,” he lamented.

A bomb exploded during Christmas Mass at a police camp chapel in the southern Philippines, wounding a priest and 10 churchgoers. Also Saturday, six people died in attacks by Muslim sect members on two churches in northern Nigeria.

“I express my heartfelt condolences to the victims of this absurd violence and once again repeat my appeal to abandon ways of hatred and find peaceful solutions to conflicts” so that people can live in peace and security, he said.

Benedict noted that the Sunday after Christmas traditionally celebrates the family, taking the birth of Jesus as its cue. Underlining his rejection of gay marriage and abortion, the pope stressed that every child deserves a mother and a father who will love them and welcome them as a gift.

“This is what gives children security, and as they grow, lets them discover the sense of life,” he said.

    Dear Used Dildo Breath:
    The phrase “saturated with gay, pedophile and abusive priests and nuns” is inaccurate.
    Thanks for displaying your ignorance to the entire world!

      You’re quite welcome my “good” Catholic, as if there was such a thing as a good Catholic. Certainly you must be a Catholic apologist and hypocrite (the two are interchangeable). I suppose you believe in the Virgin Birth, the Resurrection, heaven and hell, etc. Now, who is it that is displaying his ignorance?

      Continue sucking up to the Catholic mob, while they continue sucking on young boys. And don’t forget to give your favorite Mafia their “donation” during mass, or they just might expel you from the gay man’s club.

      Lastly, I don’t have dildo-breath, but I most certainly would have had I attended Catholic schools and churches as a child.
