You are exactly right.

This Pope is concerned with Social Engineering, not the saving of souls.

The Church has a long history of Popes, some good, some not so good, some living Saints, and some manifestly un-saintly. In the 20th century we were spoiled with a succession of very good Popes. Like investors who have only ever seen a bull market, we're shocked to discover markets can go down as well as up.

Christ's promise about the gates of Hell never prevailing was made to the Church, not to individual Popes and Bishops. Something that must always be remembered.
