more good news for the pope I love that
things that the pope should be doing is actually big news
because they have been doing it for a long time I will hit a bird tape-record
breakfast and it was with the homeless moon mmm
people find an amazing but is that what Jesus would have done right he watched a
fee to the homeless in
poor and the needy I like the one the homeless guys brought his dog that's
that's the picture from his birthday breakfast
any talk to them any a meal with them get to find out
who they are my literally god bless
it's a 77th birthday the vatican other thing that he did was he talk to the
staff
and then during his mask talked about his staff one by one until their
personal stories and people are
what he's even told me to his servants
knows them I'm home was was one thing but talking two years
happy isn't this sad what r expectations have become
over religious leaders and Pope Francis shattering those expectations
by actually being a Christian so good perhaps and now
I he's what he's doing this he's also quietly reshuffling the Vatican in very
very important ways
so don't take mistaken for asap a guy who
you know is just good-hearted but doesn't know how to get things done is
soft and no no no no no you do make a dramatic misstate
this guy can play some hardball behind-the-scenes
so the influential back in office but
that nominates candidates for bishops around the world has been restructured
now that's really important because if you put in progressive
bishops there they may move up the ladder you put in concert bishops they
move up the ladder
for decades they've been filling it with conservative bishop after conservative
bishops
not anymore now look he's not doing it all in one
wholesale swooping a action
right he's being smart about it for small um
Cardinal Donald Wuerl Washington was a a point to congress in
over bishops I don't have much information on him but that was a
expected not spine
Cardinal William Levada was reconfirmed is a former archbishop of San Francisco
in former head of the Vatican's
orthodoxy watchdog office now look at the letter that office
so you're probably a little conservative right on the other hand
Cardinal Raymond Burke former archbishop upstate New
Louis will no longer serve in that office
now who is Cardinal Raymond Burke well he's the guy who denied communion
to John Kerry member during 2004 election he spoke and said all John
Kerry should make a mean is that a good enough Catholic
let me quote here from talking from Associated Press I believe
I'm burke is considered an outspoken critic abortion and same-sex marriage
and a favor to conservative Catholics he's also been publicly critical
oppresses changes in a direction above the church
in well he was critical
a pope Francis but Pope Francis
sends his regards so
he's now got look again savvy he kept him
burger per burkett his position as the head of the Vatican High Court
but moved the waffle the important position that
imposes where the rest the church goes so
he's a savvy politician behind-the-scenes keep it real I like
the guy
I greeted with the direction he's going but to
it's not like he doesn't know how to make moves behind the scenes and still
keep people relatively happy
but head in the right direction he smart
and he's writing anyone to bring Christianity back to actually helping
people
not a bad way to go through the pope so
for the first time ever I say non ironically
God bless
