Pope Francis denounces 'evil, blood-stained' mafia

Pope Francis has launched a stinging attack on the mafia, warning gangsters that they will go to hell unless they repent and stop doing evil.

"Blood-stained money, blood-stained power, you can't bring it with you to your next life. Repent," he said.

He was speaking at a prayer vigil for relatives of those killed by the mafia.

The Pope has spoken out frequently about the evils of corruption and wrote a booklet on the subject in 2005 when he was archbishop of Buenos Aires.

The meeting near Rome on Friday - organised by a citizens' group called Libera - was aimed at demonstrating the Roman Catholic Church's opposition to organised crime, rejecting historic ties with mafia bosses claiming to be good Catholics.

I think the Mafia bosses must have missed a few payments.

This is just a warning. They will be found dead with their bollocks sewn inside their mouths, if they don't pay up.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

Pope told the mafia to prepare for hell. Must be a turf war brewing.

If the Pope doesn't pull his head in he may find himself hanging around with Roberto Calvi before long.
