“What is his problem?”

He’s hated just like Christ was for helping sinners and prostitutes instead of preaching to the choir. Jesus faced the same hate as seen here.

Some differences...Christ ALSO preached to convince those who would listen that He was the messiah, and he called for repentance of sins and for the forgiveness of sins to those true repentants. Plus the promise of eternal life in Heaven.
Have not seen this pope do that. He seems to be going through the motions of Christian virtue and acceptance of the God given value of life but neglecting the Christ’s resolution of the man/sin/death/separation from God, life defining issue.

Comparing Francis to Our Lord? I think I’m going to vomit.

Jesus had a purpose in washing the feet of the Apostles and it wasn’t for a photo op. Our Lord could have washed the feet of His Mother and the other female disciples but He didn’t, and it wasn’t because of sexism.
Francis cheapens Our Lord’s actions by turning these sacred ceremonies into publicity stunts that he knows will dazzle the media and other liberal elites.
