BEWARE!
The
CBCP has been apprised of shirts now vended apparently in preparation
for the Pope’s visit. While the words in the shirt attempt to convey the
openness of the Holy Father, the phrases “NO RACE NO RELIGION” are
definitely misleading and quite frankly erroneous.
Pope
Francis is aware of the fact that he heads an organized religion with a
vast membership throughout the world. He is also as aware that race
forms part of the identity of individuals and of peoples.
He
has never said and taught that religion and race do not matter, because
they most certainly do. It is what selfish, uncharitable
and judgmental people do with religion and race that is a problem.
We urge our Catholic faithful NOT to patronize items with misleading posts and statements.
