“If you’ve got a problem with me quoting a saint, take it up with man who canonized him.”
Take it up with God.
These are the kind of cartoonish attacks that require a darkened heart and rely upon the darkness that reside in us all. A picture...a quote without context...The event was a prayer service commemorating Jesus’ Baptism in the JOrdan, attended by local Christians and Muslims.
“I will keep all the people of Jordan — Christians and Muslims — in my prayers, especially the sick and the elderly. With gratitude I invoke abundant blessings upon His Highness the King and upon the whole nation. God bless you all! God bless Jordan!”
After the blessing the Pope said:
“May St John the Baptist protect Islam and all the people of Jordan, and all who participated in this celebration, a memorable celebration. I’m very grateful to all of you.” Thank you very much.
