This Pope is to the Catholic church what Obama is to America.

The real crisis has scarcely begun [Joseph Ratzinger, 1969] (Catholic Caucus)

Vultus Christi ^ | January 10, 2015

“The future of the Church, once again as always, will be reshaped by saints” — Joseph Ratzinger, 1969.

Ratziner: “ it seems certain to me that the Church is facing very hard times. The real crisis has scarcely begun. We will have to count on terrific upheavals. But I am equally certain about what will remain at the end: not the Church of the political cult, which is dead already, but the Church of faith. She may well no longer be the dominant social power to the extent that she was until recently; but she will enjoy a fresh blossoming and be seen as man’s home, where he will find life and hope beyond death.”
