Listen



I like what the Holy Father said today on what causes suffering in the Church today.

“'This causes suffering in the Church. The closed hearts, the hearts of stone, the hearts which do not want to be open, do not want to hear, the hearts which only know the language of condemnation. They know how to condemn, they do not know how to say ‘Explain it to me, why do you say this? Why this? Explain it to me.’ No, they are closed. That’s all they know. They have no need of explanations,' said Pope Francis." - Source

    Interesting that he says this, yet when people ask him to "explain it to me, why do you say this?" he refuses to answer. He should listen to his own homilies.

      That's reasonable. I didn't think of it that way.

      Hi Terry,

      I read this wonderful article only to find that Papa Francis answered questions posed to him by the Salesian novices who visited him in the Domus Sanctae Martae.
