I saw first hand in Ireland when growing up what this patriarchy did to girls and women particularly and GM, I will blog on this rather than take up any more space on yours....

Ask the congregation to pay for it.

Ask the congregation to pay for it.

How can the Pope who is after all the head of the Catholic Church, tell others to give to the poor when the same church is sitting on a fortune or has it stashed in banks all over the world.

I'm not the chap's biggest fan, but I do also think it is all about choices and I think a lot of aspects of modern life make it all too easy for people to make selfish choices. yeahhhhhhh, but, just because he is being an enormous hypocrite doesn’t make what he is saying wrong.
