Esser Agaroth: האפיפיור נפטר. אז מה? / The Pope is Dead. Whatever.

 


Esser Agaroth (2¢):
So, the pope died.

I knew there was a reason for the timing of the release of the movie Conclave, a thriller centered around the Vatican's process of selecting a new pope.

Coincidence? Or were they expecting the death of the 88 year old pope in ill health, sooner than later. This pope's views were, at times, considered controversial by Catholics. I will let the conservative and liberal Catholics discuss amongst themselves about that.

Here I will address the leader of the Catholic Church, as he relates to Israel.
But first off...

ברוך הטוב ומטיב

המבין יבין

Many of social media have taken issue with this comment, and others like it. Even those decrying this pope's anti-Israel stances want to claim that we are not to celebrate the downfall of our enemies.

I cannot believe that old canard is still being bandied around. I guess it is by Reform, Reconstructionist, or whatever Movement's supplementary school graduates who either did not get the memo, or received a revised and distorted version of it.

So, for their benefit, I'll just leave this here:

I cannot agree more, and I commented on another blog about the death of the Pope. I hope he suffered miserably. Jews have very short memories. They tend to forget that the most Jewish blood spilled in history was by the Catholic Churh. Even more than the Muslims. I know a new one will be elected, but I agree with that Brocha, the Popes are all Israel and Jew haters and continue to perpetuate it around the world.
