well i think O'Malley could be that Fresh Breeze the church needs and just Maybe as Pope he could clean House Getting rid if the dead wood and all the Pedophiles in the church. this Guy seems to be Honest & truthful
I can just imagine the Conclave going to a humble Cardinal.
I just threw up in my mouth
A Cardinal who sells the palace and gives the money to those deserving of it is a rarity among bishops and makes him a valid candidate.
donal1951 So true....Unlike Bishop William Murphy, (Cardinal Laws right hand man in Boston),who was subsequently awarded the Diocesan of Rockville Center and went on with his first priority of $800,000 in renovations on his new home including an additional $120,000 for appliances like a temperature-controlled wine cabinet.At a meeting held to discuss the issues of abuse with his new community soon after his appointment, he left the meeting at a local High School with at least 30 people still waiting to "ask" their question. He had decided he had no more time to hear them. Meanwhile, here on Long Island, schools continue to close.
Although it sounds like Archbishop O'Malley is a wise and humble person, I would prefer to have a diocesan priest as Pope. As a Catholic layperson, I have found that many in religious orders have limited life experience of the world of laypeople and of women and children. In speaking with many religious, their narrow focus is getting new vocations to their particular order. Instead of following Jesus, they follow the leader of their order. I believe less and less young people see the point of going into religious life for life. In looking at the signs of the times, most young people are interested in personal freedom, spirituality, and social justice. I have waited so long for my church to recognize lay people as the most important focus, instead of the bygone days of religious orders. I do not want to offend anyone, but it saddens me to see the tunnel vision of the church in still promoting religious life. Young people are confused when the religious orders promote their founder, when young people are more interested in following Jesus, the Son of God, in freedom.
donal should live in a mud hut like they do in Kenya. If not we're talking another hypocrit.
American Pope, No way. Rome doesn't want a representative from a superpower country.
The last thing the world needs is an American pope. Lets start with a truly Christian US hierarchy - not one that is a paid-up member of the MIC - and work up from there.
Take the damn Farmer's Insurance video off !!! and the NECD or whatever the following video is !!!!!
