(SUMMIT NEWS) – Pope Francis has claimed that conservative critics of his views on issues such as mass migration and climate change are performing the “work of the devil.” Many would argue to opposite to be the case.
In an interview with Jesuit magazine La Civilta Cattolica, the Pope said that after his recent surgery he is “still alive, although some people wanted me dead.”
Speculation amongst prelates was rife that the Pope’s real condition was worse than what was being reported, but this turned out not to be true. “They were preparing the conclave (to elect a new pope). So be it. Thank God, I am well,” said the supreme pontiff.
