In this episode of Francis Watch, Bishop Donald Sanborn and Father Anthony Cekada discuss and analyze:
-The sex abuse crisis and how odd it is that sins of the flesh seem to be a bigger deal for the media and for the laity than apostasy from the Faith
-Francis’ attendance at the World Council of Churches
-Francis’ position on the so-called “Patriarchate” of Moscow
-Francis’ calling himself “the devil” to a reporter
-Francis’ pathetic excuse for a “blessing” that sounded like a recruiting call to the Peace Corps
-Benedict’s odd protests regarding attacks on the concept of “Pope Emeritus”
-Benedict’s reheating of “never revoked” regarding the Covenant with the Jews
-Cardinal Luciani (John Paul I) and his thoughts on contraception
Argentina’s defense of life against abortion (with no help from Francis)
