The Ex-Pope Is Lying About Not Co-Authoring ‘Anti-Celibacy’ Book — Plain & Simple.

Any publisher, let alone one as seasoned as ‘Ignatius’, would NOT incur the cost of printing a book and creating a cover UNLESS they had a watertight contract signed up all the authors. I know. I have published books with 4 publishers.
A publisher will not spend a dime until they have a contact. That makes sense.
So, the Ex-Pope is LYING. Plain and simple.

The Ex-Pope Has No Right Or Business To Interfere With Decisions Being Made By Pope Francis.
Click to access ‘NPR’ original. Google for more.
When he resigned the deal was that
he would not interfere, would not comment.
He said he would devote himself to prayer & meditation.
He just proved why it isn’t kosher to have living ex-popes.
Beyond the bloody pale. Plus in a book being sold for PROFIT. He is a shameless German.
He wasn’t a very good pope. He is turning out to be a dreadful ex-pope.
This is unacceptable.
Pope Francis, alas, is lame in many ways. He will let this insult pass. Shame. If Francis was a forceful he would excommunicate the ex-pope and kick him back to Germany. But, that will not happen. Instead this shameless ex-pope — with his female muse and live-in male secretary — will now go onto continually undermine the pope.
This is why I have always opposed letting popes resign/retire. Just does not work.

Pope Francis, I Think, Is Ill & In Considerable Pain — Hence His Uncharacteristic Short-Temper.
The SLAP felt around the World.
This, which happened on Wednesday, January 1, 2020, went viral.
The pope apologized the next day — since his theme for the early part of 2020 ‘preventing violence against women‘!
Yes, it was ironic — as only popes can manage.
Here is a YouTube video of the whole sorry incident.
Christmas Eve Mass December 24, 2019.
Watch around the 8- & 17-minute marks.
As a Vaticanologist (though not full time) I do keep an eye on this pope (who I picked, in 2010, in print, as the possible next pope).
The unfortunate slapping incident, in my opinion, wasn’t just a case of him being a grumpy old, 83-year old man. I think there is more to it than that.
He is getting old.
He has had bad feet since he was a teenager and has worn especially made, corrective/therapeutic shoes all his adult life. He also had a part of one of his lungs removed when he was in his early 20s.
He has always walked with a slight limp but it is significantly more pronounced now. Watch him on the Mass video above. Also notice how one of his feet stick out at an angle. I am sure he has pain issues to do with his leg, back or both. A few weeks ago there was a viral flap that he was wearing a pain-pump. The Vatican denied that and said it was a remote mike!
4-years ago his doctors wanted him to go on a diet. That didn’t work. He is larger now than at any other time in his papacy. That probably doesn’t help his feet.
So, I contend that this pope is in pain and his health may not be that good. I could, as ever, be wrong.

Not Sure Pope Francis Can Or Will Play Ping Pong (At This Stage Of His Life).

Pope Francis, who turns 80 on December 17, 2016, probably did play ping pong (i.e., table tennis) at some point in his life. With part of his right lung removed (when he was in his early 20s) this would have been a good sport for him. He was sports mad, particularly when it came to soccer, in his youth and is still an ardent soccer fan. Then there are his ‘flat feet’ with the fallen arches which are causing him increased grief — now coupled with sciatica. Again ping pong would have suited him.
Just not sure whether he plays ping pong, as pope, at 79. He might lob a few shots for TV and charity. Not sure he would want to get into a full match in papal vestments. Might not look very papal.
But …
As with Trump anything is possible with this pope.
