In his homily during the daily Mass at the Vatican Tuesday, Pope Francis likened himself to the suffering Christ who was crucified because “the people were deceived by the powerful.”
Speaking from Casa Santa Marta in Vatican City, "the Dictator Pope"* went on to say that his response to the “Great Accuser” would (continue to) be "silence and prayer."
As most Christians know, Jesus was silent because he was fulfilling his purpose as the ultimate sacrifice for sin -- the perfect and without blemish "Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world."
Our "suffering" pope's purpose seems to be to take away the sins of his unrepentant prelates -- by not talking about them.
