    Practicing what he preaches..

    There could have been a reason for this. Maybe he had no other form of transport or something went wrong with his other form of transport. In fact, I'm not going to go through the list. Your judgement of him is prone to error, since you don't know his full situation. I would with hold judgement on this one.

    But your craving to expose him not 'practicing what he preaches' says a lot about you, homer. Maybe you saw a bit of yourself there, when you looked at that photo. Have you always practiced what you preached? Hehe. That's what usually compels people to do such things.

    I think you have misjudged Homer. He is saying Pope Francis is practicing what he preaches by riding in a ford focus rather than a limousine. One of Francis' recent suggestion to members of clergy is that they should forego the luxury model cars and opt for something more downmarket.

    I remember seeing two priests in a Ferarri.

    though it MIGHT have been Dean Martin & Sammy Davis Jr in Cannonball Run.......

    I truly believe the Holy Spirit played an enormous part in giving us Francis as our pope.

    There are a lot of wounds to be healed and we are living in a time of great evil throughout the world where a truly humble pope is needed.

    There was no sarcasm in my post. I am delighted by his attitude. It also looks like when he arrived in Brazil, he used a regular car rather than a "pope-mobile"
