I’m very frustrated with the Pope.
I can live with his liberal theology, as misdirected as it is, but what I can’t stand is his deafening silence on the scandal that’s enveloping his Church worldwide. He’s like a lifeguard standing on the shore with rescue gear IN HIS HANDS and watching as someone drowns. How long are you going to stand there and do nothing, Pope Francis?
If he can’t do the job, he should follow Pope Benedict’s example and step down.
If this scandal goes unaddressed for much longer, his abdication of his papal responsibilities will make it impossible for him to govern the church. He’s nearly in an untenable situation right now, with half the church wanting to show him the door over his ineffective crisis leadership.
Pope Francis also needs to understand that not everyone is out to create scandal. Many want to put a stop to it, and these are the last people that Pope Francis should be telling to “shut up.” He needs their help quite badly, and they need him to get his act together, and show some spine.
Do it!
