Pope Francis is a breath of fresh air, after Benedict.
I guess you hate the emeritus, because he is a "cold" German - but he is a Bavarian too. No one in Germany would know how to combine a Bavarian with the word "cold". Benedict is a very spiritual man with a very high intellect and an excellent knowledge. He's a teacher in a world, which is not able to listen any longer. An he "teaches" very clear, who is the beloved pope of his and my Holy Catholic Church: Francesco.
I never said I hate him, hate is a powerful word.
Is it?
I said I found him cold, stuffy, with his pompous dress and red shoes.
The clothing of the priest of the Catholic church follows rules. Everything in this clothing has a meaning. The pope and the emeritus wear the same clothing. A white soutane. The red shoes of a pope - Francescso is not wearing this shoes, because everyone thinks this shows are expensive - remembers to the martyrs of the Holy Catholic Church. A pope goes in their foot prints. It is not an accessory of football players or supermodels.
I have nothing against Germans,
Why not?
I take everyone individually.
Aha
I should have never said he was cold I guess. I just like Pope Francis better.
Without Benedict you would not know a lot about Francescso - or did you ever notice before he became the pope Jorge Maria Bergoglio in Argentinia?
