Another part in the book: Gänswein recounts how, after Pope Francis referred to retired Pope Benedict as a "wise grandfather," Benedict said, "I'm only 9 years older than he is."

Sarah scripted a press statement and begged Benedict to sign it but proposal was rejected . Francis later agreed no statement. Ganswein uses word "pathetic" to describe one thing Sarah did over celibacy book. He says Sarah's Tweets were "inopportune".

If Francis supposedly was afraid of Pope Benedict XVI while he was alive, because Benedict was a true Catholic and Francis isn't....he should be shaking in his shoes in fear from now on. His vicious, disrespectful and contemptous treatment of the great Pope Benedict in ceremonies immediatly after he died, and at his funeral, has fueled most of the Vatican curia, and employees, and VERY many Cardinals …More

I hope opposition to him and his people grows until Francis either drops dead in frustration and rage, or gives up and quits.

@Clement Jaeho Chung -Thank you Clement. You are a good long distance friend. God bless you and your family. Your comments are so true about the Church and Pope Francis. I admire your faith. I'm glad there are alot of good faithful Catholic like you. I do think Pope Francis made tons of enemies with what he did at Benedict's Funeral, and he will have a hard time from now on.

I'm back to work on Monday, teaching at a local highschool near Philadelphia, so I can't post on here as much like I have been the last 2 weeks. We had a nice two week holiday for Christmas and New Years. Unfortunatly, it was made sad by the death of the great Benedict XVI.
My grandfather saw the great Pius XII in 1954 when he was on a family trip to Rome when he was 15. He and his family took many films of their time in Rome, and I spent alot of money to have the films transferred to DVD to protect them. Rome and the Church was so much more Catholic then, and with a Pope like him than it is now!
Happy New Year!
I teach History in my school to 9th, 10th and 11th grades, and in last September, the principal asked me if I would like to teach Japanese as an elective language for students too. Our school already teaches French,Italian and Spanish. So now I teach one Japanese class to 40 student every Monday, Wed. and Friday, in addition to 6 classes every day of History. But no extra money
Have a good week. It's always very impressive to read the great Faith you have in your posts here.

Would'nt it be great to wake up one morning and hear that Pope Francis is either dead, sick, or resigned.
