The holy father must feel like he is in a desert on a consistent constant basis as he gets heckled and heralded as a heretic by his more Catholic than the Pope super righteous sheep sneering at him as they hide out from the world in their crisp green pastures typing their perceived holy but nasty thoughts about him online. Recently a visible representative for these folks appeared \u00a0for the world to see in the form and words of an orthodox priest who had something to say to the good pontiff as he journeyed to Greece on a goodwill visit.<\/p>\n
An elderly Greek Orthodox priest shouted \u201cPope, you are a heretic\u201d as Pope Francis was entering the Orthodox Archbishopric in Athens on Saturday and was taken away by police, a reminder of the lingering distrust between the two divided churches.

Of course a lot of Catholics cheered on the priest and added more vile to the bowl of toxic waste the angry priest was unable to spew out.

Your the heretic, Loser!\u201d I\u2019m sure some would love to have had that happen.

This is why saying your sorry is a good gesture when you have made Jesus look unattractive by a gross display of sin.

\u201cFrom the time I was a kid, I always wanted to meet the pope and go to World Youth Day, and I never knew how to do that,\u201d Roumie said in a\u00a0CNA interview<\/a>. \u201cMy parents were immigrants, so that wasn\u2019t something that they knew about.\u201d<\/p>\nRoumie told the pope that he portrays Jesus on an internet television series.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis eyes kind of lit up when I said that,\u201d Roumie recalled.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I met him, I said, \u2018I\u2019m a Protestant, but I\u2019m making a show about Jesus that people of all faiths appreciate,\u201d Jenkins told Pope Francis.<\/p>\n
Jenkins added that Pope Francis then \u201cpointed to Jonathan and he said: \u2018Is he Jesus?\u2019 And I said, \u2018yes.\u2019 And he said, \u2018Are you Judas?\u2019 And I said, \u2018no, no no,\u2019 and he laughed.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI really loved his sense of humor, and he just has a very sweet nature about him. So for me, I appreciate all that even if I don\u2019t relate to the formality of it.\u201d<\/p>\n
