Indeed. It goes..."all of us are sinners"<br /><br />Indeed. It goes without saying. I knew very little about the then new Pope when I saw Mrs. Odone's rant against him on that occasion. I have found it impossible to forget. It wasn't just personal, either. She also seemed to disagree with the Church's teachings on sexuality. Well there is more joy in heaven over one sinner...and all that. I trust her conversion is equally out in the public domain.Patriciushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08906131174326742939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857216796720971555.post-44596179818338305392012-03-13T12:20:17.188-07:002012-03-13T12:20:17.188-07:00Hi Patricius,

Cristina has changed her mind about Pope Benedict in recent years. She stood up for him when he was being wrongly pilloried as the pope who had colluded with child abusers. She pointed out that Pope Benedict has 'fast-tracked' the defrocking of guilty priests and has stopped the practice of giving paedophile priests to therapists in the hope that psychological intervention is all that is necessary to cure and stop the abuser abusing.Mary O'Reganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06111088825250138537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857216796720971555.post-91634310430836210702012-03-13T10:44:49.889-07:002012-03-13T10:44:49.889-07:00http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Udvavm7SSSshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Udvavm7SSSsPatriciushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08906131174326742939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857216796720971555.post-43257876496859935362012-03-13T06:58:06.277-07:002012-03-13T06:58:06.277-07:00Aren't these rather dodgy "Catholics"...Aren't these rather dodgy "Catholics"?<br /><br />I recall Christina Odone having a great rant against the holy father on "Newsnight" on the very evening of his election in 2005.Patriciushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08906131174326742939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857216796720971555.post-46180655070145504442012-03-13T05:01:36.795-07:002012-03-13T05:01:36.795-07:00Richard, You'll be with us in spirit!
