The facets of Francis

The Pillar Podcast Ep. 80

This week on the Pillar Podcast, Ed fills JD in on the news he missed this week while he was on vacation— including the pope’s pilgrimage to Canada and protests in Argentina of a bishop appointed by the pope. 

JD mentioned the pope’s homily from Thursday, at the National Shrine of Saint Anne de Beaupré. Here’s a link to that homily.

Do you live in or near the Twin Cities? Join JD and Ed on Wednesday, August 3 at Skinner’s Pub (919 Randolph Ave, St Paul, MN 55102) for a live recording of the podcast!

Discussion about this episode

There was a podcaster named JD,

His promises came out quite shady

He said there'd be words

But nary was heard

A lim'rick on Vatican trading.

Keep up the good work, and thanks so much for covering this in a neutral way that stands by the truth instead of taking political sides. Prior to the Pillar, the only choices were secular news which was incompetent and politicized on the RCC, Church News (TM) sources which were either politicized (e.g., NC Reporter) or just refused refused to speak the truth on any Pope's bad actions (e.g., NC Register), and vitriolic muckrakers like Church Militant. It was sad when Church Militant was the most reliable place to find information about Church corruption under Francis. If we won't repent and clean our own house, God will use the secular authorities to do so, and that never goes well as any quick perusal of the OT will show.

Thank the good Lord for Kate! Great episode (aside from the calendar issues)!

Interesting discussion. Great to hear you are still working on McCarrick stories—lots of loose ends in that saga.

With apologies for pedantry, I believe "amorevole" is pronounced amoREvole, not amoreVOle.
