Top 10 ramble links

I always take a quiet side-bet with myself which links from my Friday Morning Ramble will prove most popular over the weekend, and which will barely get touched. A few of you have asked me as well.

Published this on Friday, but google's "Click and Clear " add-on must be more aggressive / thorough than realised. Commented along the lines of your Friday ramble often includes a comedy piece. From the link below, all you can do is laugh at the idiot; and feel sorrow he has so many followers.

Pope Francis rather silent about all the pedophilia his Church has inflicted. Yet he would rather rant about the supposed evils of Capitalism, which has bought us devilish climate change.

Has Pope said anything about female circumcision - that other abomination inflicted on children [haven't heard any]
Has Pope condemned Islamic atrocities ~ I've only heard him repeat the Peaceful religion lie about Islam
And so many go gooey-eyed over this moron {better than the Nazi he replaced I suppose}
