00:01 It's been some years now when I was a quite young man.
00:05 My father took us on a world tour 00:07 on our way back to Australia, and we stopped in at Rome. 00:10 And as you must do when you go to Rome, 00:12 you go to St. Peter's, 00:14 which is admittedly a great edifice 00:17 of all of those in the world 00:18 to be admired as an edifice, if not. 00:21 And I think not as what it represents 00:24 from a religious perspective. 00:26 But I'll never forget going into that edifice at a time 00:29 when they had a mass. 00:31 And the present pope, 00:32 about four popes back was there with the mass, 00:35 and as they carried him out on a great palanquin 00:38 drawn by many people swaying in unison, 00:41 that he waved in regally and the flash bulbs went off 00:45 and it was like the midday sun. 00:48 You know, that was then, back then it was quaint. 00:51 Now, a more trendy pope 00:54 has the world wondering after him. 00:56 And now, US presidents come and bring of their sins 01:00 and acknowledgement of the great moral leader 01:02 that he's become. 01:04 This is fine and allowable, but is this prophetic? 01:10 For Liberty Insider, this is Lincoln Steed. |
