The Pope honors Buddha
http://ivarfjeld.com/2015/01/18/the-pope-honor-buddha/
The Pope felt a strong desire to honor Buddha during his visit to Sri Lanka.
The opening of a casket containing relics of disciples of the Buddha is a key event in the Buddhist calendar. People line up for days to pay homage to the relics.
A Vatican spokesman said the Pope did not pray during his visit but listened respectfully while monks chanted.
Banagala Upatissa, head monk at the Agrashravaka temple, told the Associated Press that allowing the Pope to witness the event was “the highest honour and respect we can offer to His Holiness”.
Pope Francis is the second pope to visit a Buddhist temple. St John Paul II became the first to do so during his trip to Thailand in 1984.
Take a look at some more pictures:

The Buddhists welcomed a Pope, who used this oportunity to recognize Buddha as god.
The Pope acceptted a gift, a small temple with some “holy relics” of Buddha.

My comment:
You do not have to believe in Catholicism to see that this Pope is not even a Roman Catholic. He is the promoter of the One World religion.
Even in Catholicism, it is branded a sin to indulge in worship of other gods, that the god presented in the mass. Whatever it is, Buddha is not included in the Eucharist.
The present Pope suddenly changed his plans during his visit to Sri Lanka. He must have been told by the spirit within his soul, to go and honor the head of the Buddhists. The Pope claim he did not pray while the monks where chanting. Still he stood in reverence, when the chief priest told the Pope to honor the relics of two Buddhist saints.
Buddha is supposed to have lived around 500 B.C.
What do Jesus the Messiah say about such supposed to be gods and dieties?
John 10:7-8
Therefore Jesus said again, ‘Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them.
For all who follow this blog, let there be no doubt. The mother of the Pope, is called “the mother of god”. But before 431 A.D, then “Catholic Mary” was presented as the “Queen of Heaven”, this deity was known as “the mother of gods”. She reigned over all the pagans in the Roman Empire, and was also the mother of Buddha.

Since the Pope is the successor of the Roman Emperor, the Potifex Maximus, the high priest of the pantheon of gods, he will surley honor both “Christ” and Buddha. This is yet another example of the Pontiff being a lawless man of sin. An antichrist in the flesh.

PHILIPPINES - VATICAN
Before he left, Pope Francis met with the parents of the volunteer who died in Tacloban. Evangelical leader Eddie Villanueva urged the members of his church to attend the meetings with the pope. Muslim and indigenous leaders ask the pope for his help in peace talks in Mindanao.
Manila (AsiaNews) - As Pope Francis travels home to the Vatican, his visit to the Philippines elicits a growing number of favourable comments from various sources, not only from Catholics, but also from Evangelicals, Muslims and indigenous groups.Pope Francis left the Filipino capital this morning. Yesterday he led a record-breaking Mass before a gathering of some seven million people, a figure officially confirmed by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority.

Overall, the historic event was handled with efficiency, precision and safety. There were no incidents or accidents despite the sea of humanity that came to hear the pope. The one sad exception was the death of Kristel Mae Padasas, a volunteer who was killed in Tacloban by a falling scaffold at the beginning of the meeting between Francis and typhoon Yolanda survivors.
Yesterday, the pope met with Kristel's parents at the Nunciature in Manila. The meeting lasted about 20 minutes. Card Luis Antonio Tagle and Vatican Press Office director Fr Federico Lombardi were present.
Fr Lombardi said that the young woman's father was deeply upset by the death of his only daughter, but comforted by the fact that her death was not meaningless since she worked on preparing the pope's visit to the Philippines.
Speaking about the visit, Evangelical leader Eddie Villanueva had nothing but good words for Pope Francis. Ahead of the event, the clergyman had urged the members of his Jesus Is Lord Church to join other Christians in meeting with the pontiff.
Villanueva described the pontiff's trip as a historical event that affects not only the Catholic Church, but also all those who truly pursue world peace.

Peace also dominated the reaction of Muslim religious leaders who positively assessed the pope's visit.
In Mindanao, the Philippines' southernmost island, where the autonomous province of Bangsamoro is soon to be created, several Muslim religious leaders praised the pope's calls for peace, dialogue and protection for the land and its natural resources, often plundered by multinational companies.
Some religious leaders associated with the National Democratic Front (NDF), a group that defends the rights of indigenous people, asked the pope to "bless the effort of Muslims and Christian peacemakers who have struggled together for peace" and to "pray with us that those who embrace the darkness and profit from armed conflict rather than from peace not steal this peace from us."
In a similar vein, Rev Ephraim S Fajutagana, president of the National Council of Churches, called on Pope Francis to ask the government and the NDF to get back to the negotiating table for a "lasting peace in our country."

One Buddhist nun's thoughts on Pope Francis
.- A Buddhist nun who experienced Pope Francis’ visit to the Philippines voiced her gratitude to the pontiff for his efforts at unity and dialogue among religious communities.
“We see that the pope has brought a blessing and also unity,” said Ven. Miao Jing of the Buddhist Fo Guang Shan community.
“We want to bring about a sincere form of dialogue,” she told CNA during Pope Francis’ visit to the Philippines.
Miao herself did not meet with the Pope. However, a leader of her community, Ven. Chueh Pei, came from Argentina to help represent the Buddhist community. Miao explained that the Vatican and Manila Cardinal Luis Tagle had invited them to an inter-religious meeting with the Pope.
The nun said they planned to invite the Pope to visit the Buddhist community.
“Since the Pope has been traveling around the world, especially for the last few months, we sincerely and humbly request that the Pope meet us,” she said, adding that “the Buddhists are very excited to see the Pope.”
Miao lauded and thanked the Pope for “bringing people together, especially with different backgrounds, religions, cultures, traditions.”
“We see how the world is moving into the future, and we always see hope, especially for people with faith.”
