        @BBCBreaking What does he need a committee for? He knows who they are & he should hand them & records to civil police. @Pontifex #atheist

        @BBCBreaking @divakarssathya impossible to dislike this pope: I expect that sadly he will be "removed" by dark forces as he is too holy.

        @paddie1958 @BBCBreaking As an Indian Hindu, I am severely affected by Abrahamic zealotry. RCC hasn't yet demonstrated its enlightenment :)

        @divakarssathya @BBCBreaking he does seem to be really trying to "Enlighten" his own church; and reduce it back to its poor but holy ethics

        @paddie1958 @BBCBreaking #RCC has wreaked havoc and is going through a rough patch. To love all of life is out of RCC's comfort zone :)
