At Rio´s Metropolitan Cathedral of St. Sebastian on Thursday, (Pope Francis) gave some 10,000 young Argentine pilgrims explicit instructions to take to the streets to “make a mess,” and “cause confusion and disorder.” “I want to tell you what I expect as a consequence of World Youth Day,” he said. “I want to see the church get closer to the people. I want to get rid of clericalism, the mundane, this closing ourselves off within ourselves in our parishes, schools or structures. I want a mess…I want trouble in the dioceses!” He warned that if the church doesn’t go out and spread the faith it would become an observer rather than a doer.
