Pius XII was a saint in his own time, and certainly is a saint now.<br /><br />Looking at pictures of ceremonies that he officiated at at St. Peters', the life of the ordinary Catholic in Rome, the priests, religious, monks, friars, nuns....and nearly all young...it is tragic to see what we have lost in traditions, liturgy, religious life etc. since Vatican II.<br /><br />And the Popes which have followed Pius XII don't come near to him in holiness or the ability to lead the Church with clear and proper CATHOLIC agenda.<br /><br />I hope that this picture of Pius XII surrounded by young religious and others does not represent a Catholicism gone forever.<br /><br />I would take a simple audience with a Pope like Pius XII, over the circus of World Youth Day any day!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
