Suffering should be embraced and redeemed through service even when a result of a miscarriage of justice, Australia's Cardinal George Pell, who spent 404 days in jail before his sexual abuse conviction was overturned this week, wrote on Saturday.

MELBOURNE - Suffering should be embraced and redeemed through service even when a result of a miscarriage of justice, Australia’s Cardinal George Pell, who spent 404 days in jail before his sexual abuse conviction was overturned this week, wrote on Saturday.

“Christians see Christ in everyone who suffers — victims, the sick, the elderly — and are obliged to help,” Pell wrote in his Easter message in the Weekend Australian, accompanied by a photograph in which he wears his cardinal’s robes. “The sexual abuse crisis damaged thousands of victims,” Pell, who was acquitted by the High Court on appeal, wrote in his piece. “From many points of view the crisis is also bad for the Catholic church, but we have painfully cut out a moral cancer and this is good.”

Forget all religions and all are fake and mystic and the only gods are medical workers and doctors and nurses.All these pastors pope and reverends are all money making machines.

Most important is all the priests dont touch the childrens.

these paedophiles seem to be having a hard time.

Isnt this guy either a child rapist or helping the rapists?

Creepy dude.

Yes, I was brainwashed with this horse manure when I was a child. 'The more you suffer the closer to god you become' Again, horse manure from the child abuse monsters

They like embracing

Looking at him I would suspect he hasn’t yet embraced anything apart from the good life !

Oh, so he really is totally shameless.

WTF?

It seems that the reformation is not yet complete

Like anyone has an option

Fuck that

If this is really true, it resonates with the Old Testament endorsing slavery in a roundabout way. Monty Python got it spot on.

Kids first?

We have been embracing suffering ever since the Catholic Church started its money grab and draconian teachings.

Acquitted or not, must we ever tolerate listening to this heap again?

As a change to embracing choirboys.

Christ got crucified for his brethren sins.

He’d know. He dolled it out.

The role of the church should be to reduce suffering, to give people guidance and help in their time of need, not to tell people to embrace suffering. How sadistic do you have to be when so many have lost loved ones to come out with a callous statement like that.

Isn't he is the guy who's into boys?

this cardenal should not said anything, ever again, ever!

Who’s this guy

'Embrace that thing being inserted into a very small space. Nothing ever came without struggle. Ahhhh... That's better.' -George Pell

I'd rather end suffering not embrace it.

Is suffering the name of 12 yr old boy? CardinalPell

I guess suffering = rape.

Keep your children away folks

Pedo!!!!!!!

He goes first to demonstrate the technique.

Somebody please cough on him

Cardinal Pell has his freedom for now. Go away quietly and stop complaining and leave us all in peace. End of Story.- AMEN ( SO BE IT )

Pell is a moral cancer,using to pontificate.Lock him up!

Oh please. Stop. 🙄

And people look at me like I'm crazy when I say that papacy is the work of the devil

I decline to notice him. Shunning is not part of the Catholic tradition, but in his case I have made an exception.

Fuck that guy

Of course he's back.

He sure loves embracing suffering...

Thats all this creep deserves.

rashidaldosari Just like his victims?

I’m totally uncomfortable with Pell’s idea of suffering. Pellapedoforever

Pel can GGF

If that's his philosophy shouldn't he be wearing a gimp mask instead?

He should know he’s caused enough

Listen to the paedophile! He knows how to embrace and inflict suffering

What a perverted viewpoint.! Embrace suffering ? Its time this suffering and death cult ceased to exist in Australia or anywhere else ! 😠

Emperor Constantine's church is very effective at this pathetic propaganda, just look at the Philippines.

How obsolete this shit has become

This Pellophile has inflicted enough suffering.

When is the defrocking? Folks with no shame shouldn't be clergy.

He should be just ignored, its a disgusting picture

😓😓😓😓😓😓

Hmmm

Similar to the cruel Mother Theresa who withheld palliative care from those suffering so they could suffer like Jesus-aside from his already despicable actions, this pervasive Catholic/Christian mindset is horrible and belongs in the Middle Ages

pell_cardinal

In case you want to enjoy your suffering, feel free to use this. BibleDiscussionStudyMeeting 🙏

Just like cruel Mother Theresa who withheld palliative care from those suffering- this is a warped mindset that belongs in the Middle Ages

They usually cause the suffering

he can stuff it

When there is no medicine

Well, this is the strangest request for forgiveness ever.

1.7 million people globally infected by the pandemic | more than 100,000 deaths Latest updates | cases per million population 👇 Corona COVID

That is because it is the one thing he is an expert in, causing suffering. He can go and get ......!

Typical Catholic.

I think we should embrace executions for pedophiles.

Why exactly should we embrace suffering? What good does that do?

You start cardinal, we’ll follow. No more church mansions, no more choir boys ... etc.

Yes, he should know, he's caused enough if it himself.

Poster boy for true Catholic church

Church mostly embraces money.

Wow! That is such a Medievally Catholic thing to say.

😴

As opposed to selling it like another group does

Gross that he would nickname his penis suffering

by embrace he means cause

wtf? shut up!

Ex Cardinal Pell should have the humility to keep QUIET nowadays!He MUST realise that he was jolly lucky to ‘get away’ with his MANY dreadful deeds to vulnerable and innocent children! REPENT, like the Catholic Church remind us constantly! Your conscience is SURELY NOT clear!

Yep 👍 I agree ☝️ Don’t suffer the BS the church has spread! Walk away...

Muslims are next.

Australia pell Anathema to human shut up, (colonial australia show your face , once again free the filth in Catholicks criminals running your church have you any shame to be australia

I wish Christians had some sort of powerful being they could turn to, to ease their suffering.

Where do these idiots get their theology from? ..... really I don't want anyone to tell me.

Despicable human being to his core

We have officially allowed religions to eat people’s brains!!

Mat 18:6 - “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were.... Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!” Pell FalsePriest

This could only happen in Australia!

Maybe he should donate his time to just visit 1 corona patient

Did the institution you represent Pell ever considered the boys they abused when you talk about suffering ?

GO TO HELL CARDINAL PELL

This is EXACTLY one of many reasons I've turned away from Catholicism-Christianity of my upbringing...sick and tired of the goddamn emphasis on always suffering / NOT enough...on helping many others that we can...especially help from corrupt wealthy as in the GOP MAGA DEPLORABLES

Bit early for the bragging rights, Rock Spider.

Fuk him

No

another pedo?

The absolute temerity that this guy has to show his face in public again let alone with a message like this. Absolutely sickening.

He's Such an Example!

How about embracing science (which is currently saving your life) instead of medieval, superstition nonsense?

Ha

What a shameless turf he is. He caused all the suffering.

I'll take his advice as soon as hell freezes over

🤦🏻‍♀️ smh

Apparently suffering looks like a red-faced Catholic priest with an erection.

Love taking advice from the deluded.

PELL SHOULD EMBRACE SILENCE.

Beast.

And the return to dark ages feudal mentality continues. What he means is embrace religion again and let’s get back to his things were pre enlightenment when priests were all powerful

Should we embrace the virus too? Oh, no.

God knows, he's caused enough.

Ok Reuters, at this point I think you are just trying to piss people off.

What a ghoul

why is reuters spreading this pederast's message?

Maybe he should shut up.

His fave verse on suffering, Matthew 19:14.

You mean the convicted pedophile Cardinal Pell...?

If the virus stops spreading, by sciencepeople, in far future, religion will claim its role. If it doesn't, religion will address it to God's will. The simplest way to fool the foolish for thousands of years.

God doesn't exist, it's a human invention

How doe he expect the children of child abuse and rape to embrace suffering ?

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

ummm, this guy should be sacked permanently

Her yerde aynı bokun soyu. Bana bile twitterda küfrettirmeyi sağlamalarından sonra, ben de bu cibiliyetsiz din tüccarlarını deccal ve şeytan ilan ediyorum.

This Priest is my role model. Wish I could be a Priest, commit crime and set free because I am a Priest.

I think we'd all like to see him set an example here.

fayedsouza

I bet he says the same to kids..

He is responsible for a lot of the suffering and now he wants people to embrace it. His hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Highly recommend

But not to embrace choir boys?

Well there goes the narrative, as good as Good Friday story gets,

Perhaps, Cardinal Pell might show us how to do it? That's called leading through example.

Justice squashed. Decency squashed.

CREEP.

He needs to crawl away somewhere.

is that why paedophile priest s make kids suffer?

Besh besh

Ok Reuters, I've little time for the man but that isolated excerpt has been chosen just to make us all angrier. Please don't do that.

Amém and FUCKOFF !

That’s what they told them during the inquisition. VaticanVault

Embracing suffering, is that what they are calling pedophilia these days?

Yeah typical. Religion is only there to control the masses. We all love suffering don't we? Dickhead!

Makes a change from embracing kids I suppose

Are they still molesting kids? Is that a Christian problem Catholic problem?

America: “Check. Done that for 3.25 years so far.”

Shouldn't he be in jail?

I'll volunteer to squeeze his nuts so he can be closer to God.

Christianity: The closer you look, the uglier it becomes
