“The Romish Church now presents a fair front to the world, covering with apologies her record of horrible cruelties” (Great Controversy, p. 570).
Pope Francis is currently on an apology tour in Canada giving a series of speeches and public appearances to express regret for the “horrible cruelties,” sexual abuses, mistreatment and death that thousands of indigenous children endured in Roman Catholic boarding schools. Thousands of children were secretly buried in unmarked graves on school grounds owned by the Catholic Church. Here are a handful of the recent news headlines:
• Washington Post: Pope apologizes for ‘evil committed by so many Christians’ in Canada’s residential schools [1]
• Associated Press: “Pope apologizes for ‘catastrophic’ school policy in Canada” [2]
• CNN: The Pope went to Canada to apologize. For some indigenous school survivors, he triggered more pain [3]
• New York Times: Pope Apologizes in Canada for Schools That Abused Indigenous Children [4]
• NBC News: Pope Francis apologizes for ‘devastating’ school abuses in Canada [5]
• Reuters News: Pope apologizes for ‘deplorable evil’ of Canadian indigenous schools [6]
• USA Today: Pope apologizes for church’s Canada schools policy [7]
The following is the complete quote and fulfillment of the Pope’s apology tour:
“The Romish Church now presents a fair front to the world, covering with apologies her record of horrible cruelties. She has clothed herself in Christ-like garments; but she is unchanged. Every principle of popery that existed in past ages exists today. The doctrines devised in the darkest ages are still held. Let none deceive themselves. The popery that Protestants are now so ready to honor is the same that ruled the world in the days of the Reformation, when men of God stood up, at the peril of their lives, to expose her iniquity. She possesses the same pride and arrogant assumption that lorded it over kings and princes, and claimed the prerogatives of God. Her spirit is no less cruel and despotic now than when she crushed out human liberty, and slew the saints of the Most High.” (Great Controversy, p. 570).

In the book “50 years in the church of Rome”
Charles Chinique a French Canadian and ex Catholic Priest, whilst He was a Catholic priest wrote a letter to Napoleon about how the Pope greatly mistreated the French Canadians,
This directly lead to Napolean sending His head general to arrest the Pope,
(The deadly wound)
And Rome doesn’t forgive or forget,
This is why Canada a country known historically for it’s many freedoms and great friendliness has been so greatly attacked and a Papal dictator puppet placed over it, Trudeau directly profited from it’s misery and the misery of over country’s as did Popery.

The ONLY reason this un-repentant power EVER apologizes is to gain political advantage & to deceive their victims into letting their guard down ..

Samuel Kimani Njoroge says
Rome has committed countless crimes against humanity and therefore it’s apology is a great insult to canadians and other true christians who were labelled by Rome to be heretics for refusing to pay allegiance to Rome.Catholic clergy and other members of papal hierachy have committed gross violations of human rights and abuses e.g molesting small boys by doing homosexual acts and many other abominable things. Talk of world wars first and second ; vietnam war; bosnia hezegrovina in balkans to exterminate orthodox serbians an rwandan genocide all these horrific war crimes were committted by Rome under it’s watch The final inquisition will take sooner when the enforcement of the mark of the beast is declared to be law.
