Dennis: Pope Resignation Talk ‘Age-ism’

Is this a publicity grab? Or a real newsworthy article. Or a blatant act of age-ism. “Stronger…younger man…” Hmmm. I am not a Catholic. Though, schooled as one when I was a boy, I understand that the chain of command of the Catholic Church is clear and unmistakable. The College of Cardinals chose him. By that action, according to their traditions and teachings, God therefore  used the College to choose the church’s Leader. This was not an election with the opportunity for a “Recall” or “Do over”. There’s no impeachment process in a Senate and House, here. It’s the ROMAN Catholic church, Father, not the AMERICAN Catholic church/ Dennis Mansfield . More here .
