Who Am I To Judge

Remember when the Pope made that remark to the reporters on the airplane.  It went viral.  What many do not know is that it was a response to a specific question about a specific person.  Seems the Pope wanted someone he trusted to go and do some fact finding or investigation.  Some Vatican people did not want such investigation.  So they put out the word that this prelate took a guy along with him on vacation.  They figured that the Pope would can the fact finder and that would be that.  Not so.  The prelate said that he was sorry for his indiscretion.  He repented.  He felt he should be fired.  But the Pope did not fire him but kept him on the job.  If you repent, you are forgiven and we all move on.  Some Vatican people think you can hold sex issues over someone's head to keep them in line or use against them.  It is easier to prove than embezzlement.  It is not so hidden.  This Pope is talking "Mercy."  What a concept.
