POPE....HISTORIC VISIT TO USA

SO  THE  POPE  IS  VISITING  THE  USA.

HE  ADDRESSES  CONGRESS  TOMORROW  -  SEPT.  24TH.

HE  IS  GETTING  A  HUGE  RECEPTION.

YOU  SEE  YOUNG  PEOPLE  AND  CHILDREN  GREETING
HIM  LIKE  A  MOVIE  STAR.

SURE  HE  MAYBE  A  NICE  ENOUGH  GUY,  DOWN-TO-EARTH,  AND  HUMBLE..... I  AGREE  HE  IS.

BUT  NEVERTHELESS  HE  REPRESENTS  A  "CHURCH"  OF  "CHRISTIAN  RELIGION"  THAT  HAS  2,000  YEARS  OF  HISTORY,  AND  WITH  A  LITTLE  TIME  SPENT  ON  THE  INTERNET,  OR  AT  A  LIBRARY,  PEOPLE  CAN  SEE  THE  TERRIBLE,  HORRIBLE,  UNBELIEVABLE,  SHOCKING,  THINGS  DONE  BY  THIS  CHURCH.

A  FEW  PEOPLE  IN  THE  LAST  FEW  YEARS,  HAVE  WRITTEN  ABOUT  IT  ALL  IN  NO  UNCERTAIN  WAY.

TWO  BOOKS:  ONE  IS  ON  THE  TERRIBLE  THINGS  DONE  BY  POPES  DOWN  THROUGH  HISTORY;  THE  OTHER  IS  MORE  GENERIC  AND  DEALS  WITH  THE  TERRIBLE  THINGS  DONE  BY  THE  ROMAN  CATHOLIC  CHURCH  DOWN  THROUGH  HISTORY.

IT  BLOWS  ME  AWAY  HOW  THERE  CAN  BE  STILL  OVER  ONE  BILLION  ROMAN  CATHOLIC  MEMBERS  IN  THE  WORLD  TODAY!

I  GUESS  THEY  JUST  DO  NOT  READ  HISTORY;  AND  OBVIOUSLY  DO  NOT  READ  CHRISTIAN  HISTORY.

BUT  SO  IT  MUST  BE.

THE  CHURCH  THAT  JESUS  BUILT  WOULD  BE  THE  LITTLE  FLOCK [THE  GREEK  MEANS  VERY  LITTLE  FLOCK],  AND  THE  SALT  OF  THE  EARTH,  SPRINKLED  HERE  AND  THERE.

ARE  YOU  A  CHRISTIAN?  IF  SO  WHERE  DO  YOU  STAND?  ARE  YOU  PART  OF  THE  HUGE  CHRISTIAN  CHURCH  [ONE  MOTHER  CHURCH  THAT  HAD  DAUGHTERS  COME  OUT  OF  HER]  OR  A  PART  OF  THE SMALL,  BASICALLY  UN-NOTICED,  VERY  LITTLE  CHURCH.... BUT  STILL  THE  ONE  THAT  JESUS  BUILT,  RULES,  AND  GUIDES?
