I stopped going to mass in the 1980’s when I lived in the People’s Republic of California.
Fake “cardinal” Roger Mahoney and the rest of the left-wingers in the so-called catholic church were the reason.
Mahoney....who urged people to vote for democrats and supported every left-wing “cause” imaginable.
I finally had enough.
Use the NRSVCE, very clean, clear English.
You got that right!
Lord have MERCY ON POPE FRANCIS!
I see blowback coming,mark my words. Those who oppose all this going on will simply set up else shop elsewhere. Plus these young people ARE NOT the majority anyways.
I pray that, as well.
Hoping he will be arrested soon as part of the rounding up of the globalist cabal.
So you allow a corrupt shepherd to come between you and the Blessed Sacrament? Satan likes that plan.
Yes and yes.
I am a Catholic. Thank you for your kind words about the Church. I am convinced that what we have now is a false pope, a pope who should be removed.
There are poster who hate the Catholic Church and hate any pope, but criticisms of Francis are warranted.
Why allow a false shepherd to come between you and the Blessed Sacrament? A corrupt cardinal is not the core of the Church.

...something for this "Pope" to ponder before making such a statement.
...then again, perhaps this "Pope" did.

Our enemies are trying to break this country in half, if they haven’t done so already, and big mouth sides with our enemies. Glad I left the church when I did. I’d be leaving now if I hadn’t done so then.
I went to a Jesuit college in Los Angeles many years ago.
It’s not just ONE corrupt cardinal....all the “American” cardinals, and many if not most of the foreign ones are likewise.
A great many of the priests, nuns, and bishops are of the same mind.
The left has corrupted most institutions, and the Catholic Church, sadly, is one of them.
And the Church’s mis-handling of the priest abuse scandal was unforgivable.
I heard Sean Hannity say that he became what he calls a “non-denominational Christian” as a result of the priest sex abuse scandal. That’s pretty much where I am, and it’s because of the left-wing takeover of the church and their support for open borders / amnesty, income redistribution, gun control / confiscation, etc. etc. Many of the Jesuits these days are also supporting “same sex” marriage and abortion.
It’s all a bridge too far for me.
I will not deny that far too many in the Church have been corrupted, but they are unable to corrupt the True Faith. I will pray for you to be inspired by the Holy Spirit to find a faithful parish led by an untainted priest.
Jesus is waiting to welcome you back home.
“Jesus is waiting to welcome you back home.”

Have a good day.
We wouldnt want reasoned debate or anything like that. Just shout down the other side. Thanks, Holy Father!
Quite the oath.
He’s the Deep State. And he’s saying all that while trying to broker a deal with the Chinese communists who slaughtered protesting young people.
And if anyone is being silenced in our era, it’s elders. Everything is about listening to young people and empowering them, and glorifying “youth culture,” the culture of the Prodigal Son when he asked for his inheritance and then took off.
If Francis believed in his Bible, he would believe more in the voice of elders.
