IN THE NEWS:
Chris discusses several news stories surrounding scandals in the Roman Church, including the reported sexual abuse of children by Catholic priests, and the call for Pope Francis to resign in the wake of allegations that he covered up what was happening. Also discussed is another story revealing that Catholic Relief Services distributed United States “food aid” to al-Qaeda jihadists in Syria. Author Robert Spencer calls Pope Francis “a disgrace to the Catholic Church, to Judeo-Christian civilization, and to the free world” in the context of this story, and the pope’s pandering to Islamic leaders, who have thanked the pope for his “defense of Islam” against the allegedly false claims that it is a violent system of terrorism.  Is this more evidence that the Vatican is working for the overthrow of the West?
