WHY WOULD AN AWAKENED AFRICANS WELCOME AND EMBRACE POPE FRANCIS WHOSE CATHOLIC RELIGION DESTROYS AFRICAN TRADITIONS AND CULTURE. THE AFRICAN CATHOLICS ARE YET TO RECEIVE A FORMAL APOLOGY FROM THE VISITING PONTIFF! Pope Francis Africa tour, into central Africa, the Democratic Republic of Congo and South Sudan, is not a surprise. The Pope is visiting the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) just after the big signing of cobalt and copper mines to the US and the discovery of massive South Sudan oil fields. Pope Francis's recent visit to Africa has been a highly anticipated event, not only for African Catholics but for the entire continent. The Pope's tour of Central Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) was originally cancelled due to security concerns, but was later rescheduled and took place with great success. During his visit, Pope Francis addressed various important issues facing the African continent, including the exploitation of African resources, the Catholic Church's role in the slave trade, and the need for ecumenism between Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
One of the key themes of Pope Francis's visit to the DRC was the need for "hands off Africa." The Pope called for an end to the exploitation of African resources, particularly minerals and oil reserves, by outside powers. This message was especially relevant in the DRC, where the country's vast mineral wealth has long been exploited for the benefit of foreign interests, often to the detriment of the local population.
The Pope did not address the Catholic Church's role in the slave trade, particularly during the time of Pope Nicholas V and the papal bull "Dum Diversas." The Catholic Church has a long history of involvement in the Atlantic slave trade. Pope Francis's visit to Africa was a mere trick used as an opportunity not to acknowledge this dark chapter in the Church's history or to work towards reconciliation with the African people.
In addition to why the pope must never visit Africa again instead of an open apology for the ills of Abrahamic religions he instead addressed and highlighted the importance of ecumenism between different religious communities in Africa. He emphasized the need for cooperation and respect between Christians, Muslims, and Jews in the face of common challenges and for the betterment of all but left out African traditional religions. Pope Francis's visit to Africa has been widely covered by Catholic television and news outlets, further emphasizing the significance of the Pope's message and the impact of his visit. As the spiritual leader of the Catholic Church and the head of the Vatican City, Pope Francis holds a great deal of influence, and his visit to Africa has been an opportunity to bring attention to the important issues facing the continent and to promote a message of peace and justice. Let us remind all and Sundry What Levels of Evil this Pope represents and the shocking levels of our Ignorance when we embrace and Love Christianity, Judaism and Islam are European cultures.
Pope Francis's visit to the Democratic Republic of Congo and other African nations satisfies only 2 reasons which we highlight as the Why for Popes never to visit Africa. The significant level of hypocrisy is in the event that is highlighted in his message of "hands off Africa" and the call for ecumenism, Pope Francis has sent a clear message he is still sitting on the Dum Diversas throne. In conclusion, what Then must Africans do? We Must seriously begin to save ourselves from brainwashing by our enemies here on earth? – We thus Vigorously TEACH At Grass roots That Their beloved Pope sits on the throne of Dum Diversas which has Blood of our ancestors and even if the pope apologises can he remove Christianity from African minds? Or close all Churches in Africa? Yes, he is in cahoots with neo colonialists for African natural resources.
