Pope Benedict does New York

Happy Passover

This Passover the largest Jewish community outside of Israel in New York City, along with throngs of Catholics and other citizens of the the Big Apple have opened their arms to Pope Benedict. He comes to New York with a messages of traditional Christian values and brave and responsible messages of love and respect for the Jewish community of New York and the world. In addition, he has been repeating the need to address the horrendous issue of pedophilia that has shamed the American Church and destroyed the lives of many of it's faithful. Although many in the church are calling for the Pope to go on and not speak about the issue further, he is intent on being a true leader and facing the problem of pedophilia in the American Church. The outlay of over two Billion dollars so far is an indication of how out of hand the problem has become. I praise him for his efforts.

The historical fact is that in the name of G-d more people have been killed than anything else. Holy Wars of all sorts and in all guises including the current terrorist war going on world wide says it all. Mankind just doesn't seem to need much cause to kill and hate. G-d must be very proud of his creations...NOT.

Peace.............nb
