Asia Bibi languished on death row and the Vatican engages with Hollywood hypocrites!

Celebrities bought their way into favour whilst our poor Catholic sister, Asia Bibi, languishes on death row in the Islamic State of Pakistan.death row.

Where is mercy?

Where is conscience?

Look at her picture friends! 


Look at her daughters, do they not deserve their mother?

Did George Clooney to take up the cause of Asia Bibi? Was Selma Hayek implored to stand for her sister? Was Buddhist Richard Gere begged to give his wealth and profile to freeing this woman?

Selma Hayek has actively supported Planned Parenthood.

George Clooney backed Planned Parenthood at the White House.

Hollywood is overjoyed.


Who in the Vatican actually thinks these meetings with Hollywood hasbeens is a good thing? How does this evangelise? 

Where is Christ in this?

Truly, they all have their rewards.


And we have the papal selfies.


Shame on all of you.  ALL of you!

God help us.



Pope gives awards to Richard Gere, George Clooney and Salma Hayek

Pope Francis on Sunday awarded medals to American actors Richard Gere and George Clooney and actress Salma Hayek at an event held at the Vatican to promote the work of a foundation inspired by the pontiff, Scholas Occurrentes.
Clooney attended the event with his wife Amal, a lawyer.

The foundation, whose name means "schools that meet" in Spanish, links technology with the arts, aiming at social integration and a cultural of peace.
Francis had created a similar organization when he was Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio in Buenos Aires, but Scholas has now become an international foundation working out of the Vatican.
"Important values can be transmitted by celebrities," said one of the organizers, Lorena Bianchetti, adding that the actors had agreed to be ambassadors for one of the foundation's arts projects.
More adulation, more, more more!

Vox,

How much would you want to bet that if Asia Bibi supported PP, every news channel would have reports about her ever day/week until she was released?

As Eric Blair once wrote: "All animals are created equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

One must remember that Pope Paul VI remains his role model and it was Pope Paul VI who first started inviting actresses into Saint Peter's.

ABS will go find the link - if it still exists- where the faithful were scandalised when Pope Paul VI invited those popular actresses - one was divorced if memory serves - and one of them (both?) wore mini skirts

"...it was Pope Paul VI who first started inviting actresses into Saint Peter's."

Long before Pope Blessed Paul VI's reign, Pope Venerable Pius XII, who was a Hollywood movie buff and loved entertainment, granted audiences to scores of actresses and actors, as well as additional entertainers. Pope Venerable Pius XII was thrilled to have met entertainers.

In regard to Pope Venerable Pius XII, he was similar to Pope Francis in that he did held audiences with "public sinners"...and did not hesitate to grant audiences to non-Catholics and non-Christians.

For example, in 1947 A.D., Pope Venerable Pius XII was excited when he met actress Lauren Bacall, who was non-observant in the Jewish religion, and her husband, Humphrey, who had little use for his religion (Episcopal Church).

When he met Pope Venerable Pius XII, Humphrey Bogart had been divorced three times. Stephen Bogart described his parents as follows:

"My mother was a lapsed Jew, and my father was a lapsed Episcopalian. Neither of my parents had any strong belief in God..."

Nevertheless, despite that, as well as the racy sexual innuendo-laden scenes together in their movies, Pope Venerable Pius XII was pleased to have met the Bogarts.

By the way, Clark Gable, who was divorced three times, was Pope Venerable Pius XII's favorite movie star. Pope Venerable Pius XII was so enamored with Clark Gable that the Pope kept prelates waiting as he granted a two-hour audience to Gable.

Shepherd of Souls: A Pictorial Life of Pope Pius XII, by Sister Margherita Marchione, page 64:

"Movie stars, sports heroes, celebrities of every stripe, creed and discipline flocked to [Pius XII's] audiences." — Pro-Pius XII author Ronald J. Rychlak.

Pope Venerable Pius XII followed the lead of Jesus Christ in that the Pope did not hesitate to go amongst weak, sinful people. His Holiness Pope Francis has also followed that lead.

Pax.
