NOT THE WORST POPE! Seriously!!!
From 2023: For this group of #TransWomen, the #Pope and his message of #inclusivity are a welcome change
By Nicole Winfield
TORVAIANICA, Italy (AP) — " #PopeFrancis’ recent gesture of welcome for #Transgender #Catholics has resonated strongly in this working class, seaside town south of Rome, where a community of #TransWomen has found help and hope through a remarkable relationship with the pontiff forged during the darkest times of the pandemic.
"Thanks to the local parish priest, these women now make monthly visits to Francis’ Wednesday general audiences, where they are given VIP seats. On any given day, they receive handouts of medicine, cash and shampoo. When COVID-19 struck, the Vatican bussed them into its health facility so they could be vaccinated ahead of most Italians.
"On Sunday, the women — many of whom are #LatinAmerican #migrants and work as #prostitutes — joined over 1,000 other poor and homeless people in the Vatican auditorium as Francis’ guests for lunch to mark the Catholic Church’s #WorldDayOfThePoor.
"The menu was evidence of Francis’ belief that those most on the margins must be treated with utmost dignity: cannelloni pasta filled with spinach and ricotta to start; meatballs in a tomato-basil sauce and cauliflower puree, and tiramisu with petit fours for dessert."

No matter your personal beliefs, no one can argue that Pope Francis was a man of the people. He served to restore a shred of hope in humanity in this world. A man of the cloth, uncorrupted by the power that the Vatican holds over the world. The world lost a good one today.

I'm far from a true believer but I did appreciate the effort Pope Francis put into bringing the message of JC back into the church. It will be interesting to see who they choose for his replacement. Will they go with someone with a similar inclusive message or will they return to the days of scapegoating, condemnation, and exclusion?
We shall see. -
A humble voice for compassion has fallen.
Pope Francis once asked, "Who am I to judge?"
While in America, Russia, dark forces remain in power, relishing their power to declare & damage.
Regretfully, as some lights go out, their malignant shadows linger among us.
