So many historians have criticized Pope Pius XII for not doing enough to save the Jews during World War II. However many Vatican archives, which have recently been fully opened for researchers, have shown the complete opposite. Incidentally the Pope had also opened his Castelgandolfo summer residence for the many refugees that were seeking some kind of shelter. His own private room was turned into a maternity ward, and 40 babies were born in his room during the war !
And believe it or not,
Pope Francis has not watched TV in 33 years. He loves to read and listen to
music. In 2015, in an interview he gave, he had stated that back in 1990, he
made a vow to the Blessed Mother that he will not watch TV anymore. Now we all know
that he is a great fan of the Argentinian football team San Lorenzo, and he
relies on the Swiss guards to tell him the score of their games. Maybe as he
recovers from hernia surgery, he many want to watch at least some Tom and Jerry
cartoons, or an old Laurel and Hardy movie.
