Pope Francis - Barack Obama meet outs schism

“We actually didn’t talk a whole lot about social schisms in my conversations with His Holiness.”

Vatican City/ Washington: All seemed to go well during the meeting of Pope Francis and US President Barack Obama. But just the next day there seems to be a mismatch in the documents released by the Vatican and the White House that details the meet.

Mr Obama said, “We actually didn’t talk a whole lot about social schisms in my conversations with His Holiness.” “In fact, that really was not a topic of conversation,” he was quoted as saying by the Washington Times.

The Vatican, however, issued a statement after the meeting saying the President’s discussions with Francis and two other top Vatican officials focused “on questions of particular relevance for the Catholic Church in the US issues that have fueled divisions between the US administration and the church.

According to the report, Mr Obama wanted his bond with the Pope to be shared over inequality but the meet highlighted Obama care more.
