This is on the Pope's address to the Cardinals:
You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free! Exactly what Jesus meant....too many popes have covered up and covered over too many problems in the College of Cardinals which trickles down to others hopeful of attaining their power some day. Pope John XXIII called for a house cleaning by calling the II Vatican Council and while it happened and much of what was achieved during that time (in my opinion, was because the Cardinals could not challenge him on this move to repair some problems in the Church). Unfortunately, they began to work behind the scenes to remove everything that was established by John (who by the way was elected because they believed he wouldn't live long enough to do anything). It took them 40 years but Vatican II has almost been dumped by the conservative curia. The intrigue is hidden behind softly swishing robes which hide the mallet of power they wield outside the sight of ordinary Catholics. This Pope walks softly but he carries a big stick and he knows how to use it and he's not afraid to use it when necessary! The Holy See....sees all and is tired of it (remember he was a Cardinal before they elected him Pope--I guess the joke is on THEM, for once!
Are you with me?
