Matt's Chat
How about the phenomenon of terror that priests have carried out against members of their own congregations. Did the pope pray about that? Well, did he?Mark's Remarks
Gentle readers, Matt has a vested interest in the whole Pope thing, as he is, according to his own description, a recovering Catholic. He has his own axes to grind.
Myself, while I agree with the issues raised by my colleague, I must say that prayers by anyone against terrorism are encouraged.
However, if the pope really wanted to do something, why doesn't he also throw his influence behind the efforts to weed out these animals, eh?
