    This particular Pope has taken alot of bad photos. He is certainly not camera friendly...

    It just reminded me of a documentary I saw the other day about child sexual abuse in the Catholic church. Apparently his holiness was responsible for enforcing the orders to cover up sexual offenses for about twenty years. Just the image of him leering at children sends shivers down my spine.

    No offense to him, but I immediately thought "Cain" of the Poltergeist movies. He was the evil ghost Reverend.

    I agree the pope is not as photogenic as the late JohnPaul 2. I really do not care as long as he is fearless in the Lord and has the courage to do the Lords work despite everything.:thumbsup:

    Seem to remember something in scripture about God looking at what is in the heart, not on the outward appearance. Think we are in danger of making theladership of a church into something like a beauty contest? - I'm not a pope fan, but this is definately the wrong criterum to judge him on.

    Regards
    Bob
