Maradona on his meeting with John Paul II
"Yes, I did argue with the Pope. I argued with him because I've been to the Vatican and seen the gold ceilings. And then I hear the Pope saying that the Church was concerned about poor kids. So? Sell the ceilings, mate! Do something!"
From Yo Soy el Diego
But he was optimistic about Bergoglio
“The Vatican, for me, is a lie because instead of giving to people it takes away. All popes have done this and I don’t want him to do it,”
“I am disappointed with the Vatican but I believe in you because you are making changes and pointing us towards more human things, things that I would like to see in the Church,”

Maradona preaching morality
He has a point tho tbf
Does he? The Catholic Church is already the largest non-gov healthcare provider and charity organization in the world.
They’re donating a lot of organs, that’s for sure.
Are you really arguing the church should tear apart the ceilings of their historical buildings to sell the materials?
