The Dilemma of Pope Francis at Easter:
~
A Note to all of God’s Holy deacons, priests and bishops as Easter now comes to us:
~
We consider:
~
The Dilemma of Papa Francis at Easter:
~
As Holy Easter now approaches, we reflect on the life of Jesus.
~
As that is what being a Catholic means:
~
To live as Jesus lived as best we can.
~
Personally.
~
There is of course much turmoil and strife in the Holy Church.
~
Brother Butch has written me today of his vexation with the infiltration of the leftists into God’s Church.
~
This is not a trivial concern:
~
It is very real.
~
This leftist infiltration of God’s Church has been a vexing problem for many decades.
~
All intelligent Catholics are aware of this and it is a terrible problem.
~
A problem of evil men trying to use God’s Church as a cover for evil pursuits.
~
Pope John Paul of course hated the leftists for personal and moral reasons and was savage and unrelenting in his denunciation of them.
~
I met Pope Francis quite a few times when he was Cardinal in Argentina.
~
I was impressed by him–he seemed to be saying in his ministry in Argentina and I assume still thinks it now at Rome, these sort of things:
~
I am 76 years old.
~
I have one lung.
~
I have a few years left.
~
What should I spend my time doing?
~
I am encouraged by many inside the Church and virtually all press outside of her, to concentrate on what are primarily administrative functions–the banking scandal–the problem of the homosexuals etc, etc. etc.
~
But am I simply a clerk of God’s Church–an Administrator?
~
All deacons, priests and bishops have various clerical duties to perform day-to-day.
~
The Dilemma of priest and pope is the same.
~
It is:
~
How do I do my clerical job as best I can and somehow keep riveted in my mind that my real job is to:
~
Live as best I can the Life that Jesus led and left to us as an example?
~
Jesus was not a clerk of the Church.
~
He was not a bank auditor.
~
He was not a reformer.
~
He was an example of how best to live our lives–on a personal level.
~
House to house, man to man.
~
Jesus did not shuffle papers from one side of his desk to the other and call it a day.
~
No.
~
Jesus was out among the people:
~
Witnessing, leading, encouraging, by example.
~
Personally.
~
I have hundreds of men in my Curia who are my subordinates.
~
How will I live my life?
~
I am the leader of the Church founded by Jesus Christ.
~
Founded by Him:
~
Personally.
~
I think that my job is to try as best I can to live each day as best I can as Jesus lived His Life.
~
Personally.
~
I will endeavour to lead by example–His Example.
~
What better can I do with the time I have left to me?

He says out loud what many people think deep down, and what the politicians refrain from saying because they are either too demagogic or too chicken. Le Pen, with all his faults and qualities, is probably the only one who thinks about the interests of France before his own."~~ French actor~~Alain Delon
