Unorthodox Pope Francis – He Is Not Only For Us Roman Catholics, “But The Pope For All!” I Say That With My Whole Heart

Surprise and/or shock: Pope Francis turns out to be the Pope for everyone! It is as if the image above, photo taken almost 7 years ago, is a testament for this assertion: ”A beam of light hits Pope Francis’ cross on his return flight from Dublin, Aug. 26, 2018” (Collen Dulle, 13 March 2021, America (The Jesuit Review, americamagazine.org). A special heavenly? note for the one and only unorthodox pope!

Oh, but did Pope Francis really say all this and that? I now quote from Snopes (snopes.com):

“Eat whatever you want during Holy Week; the sacrifice is not in the stomach but in the heart.”

You watch eating some foods during these times. You also watch your doing good for others!

“People abstain from eating meat, but they do not talk to their siblings and/or relatives; they do not visit their parents and do not take care of their children.”

We Catholics extend meat abstinence to abstinence in talking to our siblings, relatives. We abstain from visiting our parents and do not help take care of our siblings’ children. We abstain from living as a family!

“They do not share their food with those who need it most; they distance their children from their father/mother and/or grandparents. They criticize the lives of others, mistreat their partner, etc.”

We do not share our food with those in need – we don’t care if some people are starving! And we do not exert efforts for our children to meet and learn to love their grandparents.

“Meat does not make you a bad person, just as a fish fillet will not make you a saint.”

But not sharing fish, or fish fillet, with those you see are in need of food makes you a devil!

“Children distance themselves from their father, mother and/or grandparents.”

This is the fault of parents. Children don’t visit at any time even if just to say hello and find out if the grandparents needed some help or other.

“We criticize the lives of others, mistreat our partners even.”

When we’re angry, and that is often, it’s very easy to criticize, to abuse our partners even.

“Better to seek a good relationship with God by doing good to others. Let us be less arrogant and more humble of heart.”

Oh yes, I can think of our Pope Francis saying all of the above to guide not only us Roman Catholics but others too if they wished.

Oh, there is a serious question of whether the above actually came from Pope Francis, by Jack Izzo (“Did Pope Francis actually say ‘Eat Whatever You Want For Easter'?” Snopes, snopes.com)

I say it would be best if he did say all those things!

“Eat whatever you want during Holy Week; the sacrifice is not in the stomach but in the heart."

So, most of all, share your love to anyone in sight as much as you can!

It is not sacrifice if what you share is love!@517
