The quote below from Pope Francis is brilliant. It shows what an insightful man he is and how he is so aware of those priests who work and live in the dark.
They are everywhere, religious congregations, dioceses. They all appear so pious, so 'holy', and all perfectly groomed.
Pope Francis knows his priests.
I do not like it when critics are under the table. They smile, they let you see their teeth and then they stab you in the back.
The quote is from an article in the current issue of The Tablet. The piece is written by Christopher Lamb.
