I haven´t mylotted much today because Chilean news are very interesting and I have been reading and watching them all day.
The most important piece of news is that Pope Francis is putting an end to all sorts of abuse from the Chilean Catholic church. He has done unreard of things such as calling all main bishops to the Vatican and talking to them in such a way that all of them decided to stop being bishops and wait to see what the Pope would decide.
Then there are small things that will mean a little extra money for many of us. No one will say no to it, unless the people are rich enough so as not to care for it.
Now, back to the Vatican. I am not Catholic, but I love Pope Francis!!!

@mandala100 It has happened in many countries. I´m so glad that Pope Francis finally decided to put an end to it.

Same here. This may be the greatest mayor change in Catholic church for centuries.

I had never liked a Pope after Giovanni XXIII. But I hope this Pope does part of what the Catholic church desperately needs. I specially like Jesuits.

@LadyDuck They are the most social minded congregation and many intellectuals have been Jesuits along the centuries. During America´s colony time, Jesuits were finally banned from America as they were doing missionary work and teaching trades to the native people. The rest of the priests thought that natives had no soul and should be treated like animals.

It was about time! The Catholic church has lost a lot because of all these abuses.
