Gee, hard to know which one to believe. 
Once more, the catholic church has elected an elderly, homophobic anti-women biggot as pope.
We are all well aware of the old pope’s ties to the NAZI Regime, member of Hitler Youth, uniformed Wehrmacht soldier as well as his complicity in covering up numerous cases of sexual abuse by priests. Seems like its same old same old with Francis –
On 15 April 2005, a human rights lawyer filed a criminal complaint against Bergoglio, as superior in the Society of Jesus of Argentina, accusing him of involvement in the kidnapping by the Navy in May 1976 (during the Dirty War) of two Jesuit priests.[17] The priests, Orlando Yorio and Franz Jalics, were found alive five months later, drugged and semi-naked. Yorio accused Bergoglio of effectively handing them over to the death squads by declining to tell the regime that he endorsed their work. Jalics refused to discuss it after moving into seclusion in a German monastery.[18] Horacio Verbitsky, an Argentine investigative journalist and former montonero, wrote a book about this and other related events titled El Silencio: de Paulo VI a Bergoglio: las relaciones secretas de la Iglesia con la ESMA.[19] Verbitsky also writes that the Argentine Navy with the help of Cardinal Bergoglio hid the dictatorship’s political prisoners in Bergoglio’s holiday home from a visiting delegation of the Inter-American Human Rights Commission.[20] According to the book, after their release, Yorio accused the then-Provincial of his Jesuit order San Miguel, Jorge Mario Bergoglio, to have denounced him. Father General Pedro Arrupe in Rome was informed by letter or during the abduction, both he and Orlando Yorio were excluded from the Jesuit Order.[21]

A stirring, poignant, and moving love story will soon touch the hearts of many as author A. Elio Borme shares this English adaptation of his Italian novel. My Dear Clochard awaits readers who have loved, are in love, had loved and lost, and are waiting to love.
Nicole is now a sixtyish lady, but still beautiful and spirited. She is single and lives a prosperous life, being the president of her own music production company. Pierre, the great love of her life while they both were still students, is a free-thinker, a visionary, and an often misunderstood individual because of the social changes he anticipates to help transform the world. Their love affair then had been beautiful and unique, but with the philosophical conflicts they had, it left little room for romance. That time, she simply wanted to be happy, like most other girls, but she just wasnt mature enough yet for Pierre.
It has been years since they have last seen each other. One evening, as she is watching television, she recognizes his old flame, Pierre. But what makes it really interesting is that the TV report is a documentary on the life of the clochards in the city. She is shocked that Pierre now lives in the Trocadero, together with other street people without shelter. Overwhelmed with emotion, she visits her friend Michelle and they muse over the past. Because she couldnt believe it, she thinks that Pierre is just masquerading as a clochard for some eccentric reason. So, the following day, she goes and visits him at his old address. She wants to talk to him and ask him so many questions. But what will Nicole find out?
My Dear Clochard is indeed a beautiful tale of love, society, change, hope, and life. For more information on this book, log on to Xlibris.com.
About the Author
Antonio Elio Borme was born into an Italian family at Rovinij (now Croatia) in 1935. At a very young age, he was predisposed to music, a precocious avocation, unfortunately not encouraged by his parents. He spent his youth in Italy, in Desenzano on the Lake of Garda, and in Rome where he studied medicine. He graduated from medical school in 1960, was married in 1962, and has two sons who live in the United States. His life was always dedicated to literature and humanity studies, with emphasis on the great Italian and Greek classics. He pursued the medical profession as a surgeon in Italy, England, Canada, and the United States. Today, he has become a full-time writer. My Dear Clochard is already being published in Italy as well as a few earlier works, which will also be published in France. This work, besides lending a voice to the less privileged of society, is also a token reminder; it chronicles a time when history was not made by gladiatorsthe common trait symbolizing the fall of an empirebut by leaders. He has a number of literary projects, such as a new version of Virgils Aeneid. He lives in Dallas, Texas, with his second wife.

Infidel Guy.com Controversy, science, religion, philosophy, debate, social issues and much more these are but a few of the issues discussed on Live with The Infidel Guy. InfidelGuy.com is the largest internet radio destination that dares to tackle those issues dead on. For almost 6 difficult years, Reginald V. Finley, Sr. has been spearheading a movement via internet radio to challenge traditional beliefs and evoke critical thought. With over 30,000 fans and a distribution of about 100,000 internationally the Infidel Guy promises to be a beacon of freethought for a long time to come.
“I just want people to know that it’s okay to not believe in any god/s and if you do, thats fine, just dont thumb your noses at people that dont share your theological view,” said Mr. Finley. “There are good reasons why one chooses to not accept unprovable, supernatural claims, more specifically, a god.”
Mr. Finley is a recent graduate at the Atlanta Broadcast Institute. He envisions himself eventually bringing his controversial show to television as well as AM/FM radio. In fact, Mr. Finley is already working with many other internet radio programs to get his show heard. In effect, I am syndicating myself, he says. One of which is UrbanSoulNation.com a fast growing internet R&B internet station. IG will be doing a LIVE show on Sundays, sharing with many Black Americans a different view on religion. “Ive noticed that the traditional broadcast industry shies away from religious criticism, yet sex and political oriented talk are abound, now, its my turn, he says. Mr. Finley is certain that this is an untapped market that would surely bring in revenue and listenership to any station with the courage to give him a shot. Although hes harsh on assorted dogma, hes not a dogmatist himself, admitting humbly when he doesnt know something.
Landover Baptist Church.org has affectionately dubbed The Infidel Guy as “America’s most Dangerous Black Atheist.” The only thing remotely dangerous about this confident, intelligent and handsome person… is his mind.
