During a February 2 meeting with Congolese Jesuits (LaCiviltaCattolica.com, February 16), Francis said that "when they proposed me to be auxiliary bishop of San Miguel, I did not accept.”
He was also asked to become bishop of an area in Corrientes, northern Argentina. The nuncio encouraged him to accept saying that there were the ruins of the Jesuit past there.
Bergoglio replied that he did not want to be a "guardian of ruins" and refused, not caring about the people of these peripheries. But when he was offered Buenos Aires "with the authorisation signed by the Superior General, Fr Kolvenbach" [which was not needed], he accepted - humorous quote - "in a spirit of obedience."
In The Dictator Pope, Henry Sire writes that Kolvenbach gave a negative evaluation of Bergoglio in an unsuccessful attempt to thwart his promotion.
Francis told the Jesuits that a pope should not resign because the papacy is for life and that he had no plans to resign.

I do not believe this Bergoglio dribble for one nanosecond. He is a pathological liar.
The Congolese rite mentioned here is worth a look. That is what we have come to, and not unlike Fr. Michael Pfleger's Masses at St. Sabina's on the South Side of Chicago. I think the Shakers danced with more dignity at their services.

Are these fantastic editorial cartoons ever collected in some gloria.tv archive? Whoever draws them complete with the captions could make an absolute fortune if published. Maybe with the Title "Laugh along at Pope Francis", or something like that.

The Jesuit Superior General told Karol (JP II) Wotyla not to consecrate Gordo a Bishop. Woytyla ignored the Superior General and now look at the slop Wotyla has left us. This is the same Woytyla that passed over the charges against the pedophile charges of Legionnaires of Christ founder because of the money the Legionnaires brought into the Vatican.

The Jesuit Superior General told Karol (JP II) Wotyla not to consecrate Gordo a Bishop. Woytyla ignored the Superior General and now look at the slop Wotyla has left us. This is the same Woytyla that passed over the charges against the pedophile charges of Legionnaires of Christ founder because of the money the Legionnaires brought into the Vatican. Now Woytyla is a "Saint." Individuals say Woytyla's work against the Communists in Poland make him a saint. I thought Ronald Reagan is the one who brought an end to the evil empire.
