The Mafia involved in Vatican money laundering, who would have thought of such a thing, they will be accusing the priests of being paedophiles next.

The argie takes the role of Popsickle stating the will be the peoples pope and renounces the Palace and all the trimmings and what searing item of concern does he decide to do first?

How about World-wide paedophile hunter / killers to REALLY tackle the problem without interference from the local priests and cover-ups (as has ALWAYS been the case)? Now that IS something I could believe god (if he existed) would support “for he is a righteous god and smites all those against him” if I remember correctly.

No fear: he’s going to learn how to run the fucking bank!

As Bill Mather says “if this were an International Company with thousands of employees despoiling children the CEO (the Pope) would be in jail right now AND they would no longer have customers (the ‘faithful’).

BUT the reality? AND they claim there is a god!
