Roman Catholic priests have molested thousands of children on every contient on earth where that Church has had to dispose of massive property to pay for compensation and you have the hide to call the SPCC a joke. Go back and crawl under your rock.

To the big heart

Catholic Church has always been hostile to us. Though out the history almost all the interventions have been encouraged by Vatican. They spoiled our relations with the Poles and finally Russia had to annex it. Before 1920 the contradiction with the Poles had no nationalistic aspects but had mostly been based on the conflict of the two sister Churches. Earlier the Tetons and other Germans also invaded us under the Catholic rhetoric. Though Napoleon or Hitler were poor Christians they too used the religion to unite Europe against us. In 1812-1813 only Balkans where the 3-rd Russian Army stayed avoided disaster. In 1918 Andante invaded us in the North and in the South. Formally they fought the heretics but de facto they came under hostile church flags. Number 1 enemy of ours has always been England. I can imagine we may some day be friends with the Yanks but never with the English. The Americans are pragmatic while the English Russo phobia is genetic and sometimes even irrational. I can agree with most of your viewings but you too will have to enter our skin. Russia has never attacked first a Catholic state or the clerical territory of the Catholic church. Meantime dozens of times we became victims of Vatican or of the Catholic world. I appreciate the US and UK to join us in the end of WW2 but 16 Catholic and only 1 Orthodox country invaded us together with Wehrmacht.

What can I feel today or what should Serbs feel after the Barbaric and unprovoked bombings ? What was wrong with the bridges in Novi Sad or other places hundreds miles away from Methohija ? Would they treat A Catholic people same sadistic for 15 years as they do it with the Serbs ? Or why should we Russians close our eyes at Vatican to steal hundreds of our churches in the western Ukraine ? This is why neither the Russian nor the Serbian Churches allow the Popes to step here. First they must confess and promise to stop the hostile activity and then enjoy our love and brotherhood. As soon as they what you call “swallow” the reality they can expect our mercy and help to stand against the political correct madness to cover first America and now Europe.

It's pretty obvious that the Catholic Church is an institution that's lost all spirituality, plays absolutely no role in the lives of people in Western Europe and if it wasn't for Latin America its worldwide influence would have evaporated. The Vatican is a political entity (theocratic in the true meaning meaning of the word) which serves political interests and behind every pope move there are political incentives. The Vatican still can't swallow the fact that Serbs and Bulgarians preferred Byzantium over Rome and Orthodoxy over Catholicism and the role it has played in the Balkans manifests its hatred for the orthodox people. Serbia has nothing to gain from a pope visit and especially from a german pope. They're gonna say that the Serbs and their Church are some backward orthodox fanatics but who gives a damn? Better that than a child molester with impunity.

With all due respect Rote to your opinion in your comment, I can forgive, and I do forgive, always, but I can't knowingly support evil in any form. However, I don't see anything wrong with what you propose. One thing you are ignoring though are all of the God fearing, peace loving, humble Christian people throughout the world who belong neither to the Orthodox or Catholic Church, or any Church at all for that matter. There are many out here that practice the Way of the Pilgrim but don't even know what that is. The non religious Europeans of today are just a unique brand of materialistic heathenism of a degree not formerly known to Earth.
BTW folks,Cowboy Church is real and thriving. Ride in and say howdy to us some day; we'll appreciate you and treat you kindly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowboy_church

I believe they should allow him because it is historical and inviting him is not absolving any of the crimes. It is the western branch of Christianity and it had its roots the same, even though there was a divergence. They should allow him to visit as a guest, but not to really preach or make a spectacle like other Pope visits. He can say something to the crowd, if that is the format, but not a big lecture.

So, allow him to visit for marking the history and as a guest, like all the others.
They should concentrate on the beginnings and early years of Christianity before the Schism.

1. Vatican is the only Church we know outside the Orthodox World. Others are considered just as heretic sects. Such is the approach of both the Russian and the Serbian Saint Churches. Besides Vatican heads the biggest church by now. A billion of true Christians trust it and a great political and other power stands behind the Catholics. So one way or another we have to deal with them. If we like it or not. The West went crazy and the situation is aggravating year by year. In 8 countries they already have parent-A and parent-B ect. In this mad world the Catholic Church seems to be almost the only force to keep common sense. So despite everything they had done to us we cannot abandon this last plot of Christianity in Europe and let the Mormons or morons smash them. Next they will come to us and impose us more of their habits and evil ideas.

2. We can't close eyes at the crimes Vatican committed or blessed against the sister Orthodox Church for the last 1000 years. It’s a long list that started centuries ago. And nobody apologized for the crimes. They mean to tell us round about words without a confess and asking pardon. The way they have done towards the Jews. Vatican permanently attacks the clerical territory of the Orthodox Church in the Balkans in the Ukraine and close eyes at the millions of Christians to become refugees in the Middle East soon. We must forgive them but no sooner than they ask for it. But we must support them as the last plot of common sense and the God

And the Catholic Church's perfectly manipulated timing on concocting the Medjugorje virgin to put a mask of piety on a country (Croatia) while some of its most powerful members still have the blood from murdering their brothers in Christ (Serbs and other not Croats) on their hands is a pathetic attempt at cover-up that worked, for awhile, with only the naive and ignorant. Which is, of course, partly why the Catholic Church puts so much emphasis on cultivating naivete and ignorance.
Do you at the Vatican think that by tossing coins here and there around the world that you can garner approval and acceptance for the Catholic Church in the world community? With all of the ill-gotten riches that y'all posses how would it look if you didn't give any to the needy?

Oh how sadly funny it is for Jesus lovers to watch you pro WW2 Nazi Europeans and anti Truth Catholics scrambling to hide God's Truth.

This humble opinion of my will have to come your way in two parts due to my own greediness of having the floor to myself.

This here sinner that was elevated to Christ status by other sinners holds evil secrets which are God's Truth that can help set free and heal God's children. This Pope knows the truth of the most horrifying Croat atrocities that were committed against God's children, including the ones in churches where they burned Serb Orthodox Christians. One of those monsters responsible for church burnings is slowly being elevated to sainthood--the renowned Catholic Nazi monster--Archbishop Stepinac.
If the higher-ups at the Vatican would come out with the Lord's Truth about Catholic Nazi Croats, no one and no country could, in good conscience, support Operation Storm or the Balkan wars. And that's why those who, in ignorance, did support Operation Storm and the Balkan wars continue to turn a blind eye to the Truth and will not publicly acknowledge the Catholic Church's complicity (by silence) in Croatian Nazi historical crimes against Serbs, Gypsies and Jews.

SJ, that’s cause we expose their wrong doings while you DO NOT; I’m sure your priests are just as nasty, if not even worse.

It's pretty obvious that the Catholic Church is an institution that's lost all spirituality, plays absolutely no role in the lives of people in Western Europe and if it wasn't for Latin America its worldwide influence would have evaporated. The Vatican is a political entity (theocratic in the true meaning meaning of the word) which serves political interests and behind every pope move there are political incentives. The Vatican still can't swallow the fact that Serbs and Bulgarians preferred Byzantium over Rome and Orthodoxy over Catholicism and the role it has played in the Balkans manifests its hatred for the orthodox people. Serbia has nothing to gain from a pope visit and especially from a german pope. They're gonna say that the Serbs and their Church are some backward orthodox fanatics but who gives a damn? Better that than a child molester with impunity.

To the big heart

Catholic Church has always been hostile to us. Though out the history almost all the interventions have been encouraged by Vatican. They spoiled our relations with the Poles and finally Russia had to annex it. Before 1920 the contradiction with the Poles had no nationalistic aspects but had mostly been based on the conflict of the two sister Churches. Earlier the Tetons and other Germans also invaded us under the Catholic rhetoric. Though Napoleon or Hitler were poor Christians they too used the religion to unite Europe against us. In 1812-1813 only Balkans where the 3-rd Russian Army stayed avoided disaster. In 1918 Andante invaded us in the North and in the South. Formally they fought the heretics but de facto they came under hostile church flags. Number 1 enemy of ours has always been England. I can imagine we may some day be friends with the Yanks but never with the English. The Americans are pragmatic while the English Russo phobia is genetic and sometimes even irrational. I can agree with most of your viewings but you too will have to enter our skin. Russia has never attacked first a Catholic state or the clerical territory of the Catholic church. Meantime dozens of times we became victims of Vatican or of the Catholic world. I appreciate the US and UK to join us in the end of WW2 but 16 Catholic and only 1 Orthodox country invaded us together with Wehrmacht.

What can I feel today or what should Serbs feel after the Barbaric and unprovoked bombings ? What was wrong with the bridges in Novi Sad or other places hundreds miles away from Methohija ? Would they treat A Catholic people same sadistic for 15 years as they do it with the Serbs ? Or why should we Russians close our eyes at Vatican to steal hundreds of our churches in the western Ukraine ? This is why neither the Russian nor the Serbian Churches allow the Popes to step here. First they must confess and promise to stop the hostile activity and then enjoy our love and brotherhood. As soon as they what you call “swallow” the reality they can expect our mercy and help to stand against the political correct madness to cover first America and now Europe.
