Great Injustices

 The pope of the Catholic Church at this time, Francis I, seems to be very focused on the unwanted in society, who can suffer great injustices in a world of prejudice.  Why doesn’t he just talk about Jesus?  Well he does.  Jesus was rejected by the powers of his world, religious and political.  He was innocently crucified.  This was a great injustice.  He was poor himself.  He was unwanted by many who had a lot of material goods.  He rejected religion that aligned itself with power.  The Pope lives in a small apartment.  He does not live in the big papal quarters of previous popes.  It makes one think about the road to holiness.
