Join Yale religious history professor Dr. Carlos Eire and me as we talk about the “Nature Mystic” St. Francis of Assisi, the first Christian mystic to manifest the Stigmata and also experienced almost every other mystic physical phenomena and divine encounters with Christ. Francis had a deep love for God’s creation, but he also extolled the virtues of poverty and was on the front lines confronting the Cathar heresy and Waldensian heresy in the 13th century.
I’m still trying to make sense out of Bergoglio choosing to be called Francis. Talk about inappropriate.
Was he Fidel in a previous life? I despise that current Pope. The guy went to Cuba y nada!
I’m all for the poor and helping the poor, but don’t talk about your love for the poor while you live like royalty.
