I do not know about hatred but, along with the appreciation for the priceless video, I felt profound sadness for the misguided souls who are bowing to a mere man. For those who believe in the Bible, the inerrant Word of God, it states we are to bow to no one. It also starts that there is ONE mediator between God and man, and that is Christ Jesus. The Bible also states that we are not saved by our works, but by the finished work of Christ on the cross, when he died and rose again for us to have redemption, ‘ NOT of works lest any man should boast’. I feel no hatred, only abject sorrow for the outpouring of worship for a man who, without the repentance and faith in CHRIST, not himself, is without forgiveness of his sin and is not ‘holy’, nor is he an intercession between God and man. Not hatred, sorrow. And deeply grateful for this video footage to remind us of ‘thus sayeth the Lord’.

Born in the age of Napoleon, ushered in the reign of Victoria, saw a unified Germany under Bismarck and Italy under Victor Emmanuel II, and spent his twilight in the dawn of the Edwardian era. Not only did Leo XIII live through one of the most eventful centuries of European and World history, but he also set several papal precedents including being the first pope to be voice-recorded and here in 1896 with filming. Only Pius IX had the honour of being the first pontiff to be photographed in 1878 shortly before his death in February of that year. This piece of film should also make us humble our understandings of those who lived before our time. It permits us to have a newer understanding of our ancestors and their lives.
