Papa Francisc continua sa se poarte atipic pentru un sef al Vaticanului, complet diferit fata de inaintasii sai, ultimul sau gest, care a luat prin surprindere, fiind faptul ca s-a spovedit in public, in fata unui simplu preot. Suveranul Pontif, imbracat simplu, a ingenuncheat in fata preotului, intr-un confesional deschis, unde a stat timp de trei minute, cat si-a marturisit pacatele, dupa cum se poate vedea din inregistrarea postata pe The Wire.
Ulterior, si-a luat locul in confesional, in Biserica Sfantul Petru din Vatican, pentru a asculta pacatele altora.
Recent, Papa Francisc a aparut si pe coperta prestigioasei reviste Rolling Stones, care are insa prea putine in comun cu religia.
PS: Oare si Papa trebuie sa se spovedeasca daca se presupune ca el este locțiitorul lui Isus Hristos pe pamant? Stim ca Isus a fost singurul om fara de pacat. Se spune totusi ca Papa e infailibil. Se pare ca Francisc este decis sa utilizeze orice mijloc posibil pentru a realiza ce si-a propus de mult Biserica Romano-Catolica, si anume Marea Unire Religioasa sub un singur Cap, Papa si o singura Mama, Biserica Catolica.
Timpul sfarsitului este aproape iar acest articol poate fi intitulat: Papa continua sa se dea mare.
[ENGLISH ORIGINAL ARTICLE ]
Pope Francis continued his rock star turn yesterday by breaking with tradition and publicly confessing his sins while leading a penitential liturgy in St. Peter's Basilica.
The pope, dressed in a simple white alb and purple stole, spent about three minutes kneeling before the priest's open confessional and received absolution. The priest also clasped the pope's hands and kissed his simple silver ring.
As we noted, just days ago, Pope Francis, who had made the cover of Rolling Stone, promised Jersey Vargas, a ten-year-old girl, that he would mention immigration reform in his meeting this week with President Obama. Specifically, Vargas was appealing to Francis on behalf of her father, Mario Vargas, who is in the process of being deported.
The plea, at least in the short-term, worked. Around the same time that the Pope was confessing his sins, Vargas walked free.
Mario Vargas was freed from a detention facility in Louisiana after he posted $5,000 bond. A relative who saw the girl on television pleading with the pope during a public audience helped with the funding, said his wife, Lola Vargas.
Vargas will reunite with his family for the first time in two years while they await the ruling of an immigration judge in the outcome of his deportation case.
