Journalist: "Are you worried about your safety?"

Pope Francis: "Why?"

Journalist: "There are some people who are targeting Christians"

Pope Francis: “There are good and bad people. To tell you the truth, the only thing I’m worried about are mosquitoes.”

I know i will probably get a lot of flack for saying this but i am used to it by now. Hehehe. I am really wondering, apart from inconveniencing us for the next few days and making traffic and our lives on the roads hell (pun intended) how does this pope guy's visit add any value to our country? Am really struggling to find any significance of this visit? Isn't this pope guy just some regular schmuck flying around country to country telling people a bunch of nothing? I have seen on TV saying that the pope blessed a severely disfigured man and blessed a child, washed people's feet, isn't that something that any regular dude can do? I mean, i can wash like 50 people's feet, and "bless" like 5000 disfigured people and children, what will that prove? What does his washing people's feet prove?

If Mr. Francis had healed that severely disfigured man, then i might have been the first one to arrive at UON grounds tomorrow for the service or whatever the hell that is going to be, but the guy has absolutely no divine powers at all, is just a regular con. Can't do any miracles. Lol. It's amazing that over a million people will go listen to this guy who posseses no godly powers talk about things that don't add any value to their lives. After the pope leaves, all the poor people that he will have "blessed" will still remain poor and all the disfigured people will still be disfigured. I am willing to bet my left arm on that. I mean, anybody can wash feet, lol, i just don't know why it's special when this conman washes feet. Will he also turn water into wine? Does anybody know? That might actually make me go, i do like me some wine, maybe we can drink and party a little bit after the crusade. Mukiri, do you know if there will be miracle wine? smile

Weee @Ham, thought we agreed to each his own. In India, peeps there lynched a man who was transporting beef. Turns out they actually believe their god is the cow. So they were avenging by killing the guy who had killed their god. I almost said how primitive ! Then I remembered these guys actually control, own and run our economy.

On the pope, please remember he is a creature of religion. We know all religions are massive and long running scams which actually push people far away from the same God they claim to derive their authority from. Up to here am sure we agree. Where I differ with you is the existence of a supreme being. I am a strong believer in God. Someone is in charge. There is a method to this madness that cannot be random. Don't ask me for evidence.

Regardless of if God exists or not, there is no point disrespecting an otherwise humble guy who wishes everyone well.
Common decency dictates that we treat one another with civility and respect.
If for no other reason, I admire the guy for his grace and 'down-to-earthness'

someone must have duped Papa to shake Meralli's hand...This whole St. Francis of Asisi theme became not-so-credible the moment the Kenyan "Capitalists" were invited to shake hands with the Pope. Only a handshake with 200 walala hois will cleanse Papa from this mortal error
