Perhaps the Last Judgement will serve to remind them of what's up ahead, ping!

Next I suppose they will sell the naming rights like sports stadiums. The Apple Chapel?

What’s next?

Will he open up St. Peter’s Basillica for interfaith ceremonies as he did with his cathedral when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aries?

>>And he (Bergoglio) also sponsored interfaith prayers after Pope Benedict XVI offended Muslims in 2006 by quoting a Byzantine emperor as saying some of the Prophet Muhammad’s teachings were “evil and inhuman.”<<

How’s that? I see the proceeds going to charity, so frankly the analogy is lost on me.

There is nothing wrong with this and it is no big deal. If I had the money to rent out the chapel, I would.

It’s lost on you because it doesn’t make sense. There’s nothing wrong with renting out the chapel for charity.

Or perhaps a tango dance fundraiser?

"To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Catholic presence in the neighborhood of Coghlan in Buenos Aires, its Archbishop, Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio, promoted a tango Mass. It took place in Santa Maria de Los Angeles Parish run by the Capuchin Friars in the year 2008." http://traditioninaction.org/RevolutionPhotos/Images%20(501-600)/557-Tango-1.jpg

Last time I was at the Sistine Chapel I found a hidden face of Ferdinand Porsche in one of the frescos

The proceeds will fund the poor. Would Jesus have a problem with that?

>>On behalf of Pope St. Pius X, the Vicar General of Rome Card. Basilio Pompili issued a Pastoral Letter in 1914 denouncing the tango as highly damaging to the soul. The Cardinal stated:<<

>>”The tango, which has already been condemned by illustrious Bishops and is prohibited even in Protestant countries, must be absolutely prohibited in the see of the Roman Pontiff, the centre of the Catholic religion.” He urged the clergy to courageously raise their voices “to defend the sanctity of Christian customs against the threatening danger and overwhelming immorality of the new paganism.” He also warned parents that if they do not protect their children from such corruption, they will be guilty before God of failing in their most sacred duties. (The New York Times, January 16, 1914)<<
