Jesus vs Pope

Ok, this day will not pass with writing this post. Pope Benedict the 19th (I believe, right?) He has landed in Mexico right about now. As you know I like to keep up to date on my news; I read online articles and check the readers comments. While of course Mexico is very honored to receive His Holiness, I have noticed so many negative comments from the Mexican people who are not too hyped about his visit.

Why so much negativity? It's not that he is being persecuted by his faith, on the contrary the preparations for his visit have already generated who knows how much cost, I want to say millions of American dollars. He is being received like a King by all his followers, the president of the republic and the candidates to the presidency. So no, persecution I don't think so!

Truth is the Catholic Church has been loosing members. The Roman Catholic Church now has 1.1 billion members compared to 1.5 billion Muslims and 593 million protestants. Sex scandals have accelerated the decline but there are many other reasons involved in this shrinkage.

I think that Babylon the Great's waters are drying up!
