German Outrage Swells Over a Bishop’s Spending

"BERLIN — Since being elected in March, Pope Francis has
quickly made a mark with his displays of modesty, eschewing
lavish papal apartments for a spartan guesthouse in Vatican
City, wearing simple vestments, carrying his own bag and
preaching against a Roman Catholic Church hierarchy that he
said was overly insular and too often led by “narcissists.”

"Apparently, Franz-Peter Tebartz-van Elst, 53, the bishop of
Limburg, Germany, for almost six years, is not on the same
page as his new boss." ...


Now there's a man who needs to meet Jesus.
