That is exactly what Il Papa intends!

Prognostications for 2019

I am sure that my admirable friend and brother priest Fr Zed will have some intelligent forecasts to make. I offer only the following humble and baseless guess:

That the abuse crisis will move even closer to PF himself.

Maybe the Pope is a capitalist. There is an overwhelming proportion of people with ears that itch to hear pleasing doctrine. The Pope is selling to this market, perhaps.

The long-term history of the Papacy undermines the Papacy very clearly.

Francis is just one more of the discreditors who has departed from the original teachings of Christ. Sad but so...

Example: payments to the church in exchange for planned “indulgences.” There are many, many more examples.

Amazing...

Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills [i.e. Rome] will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End.

Just a week ago, in his Christmas address to Vatican officials, the Pope nonchalantly tossed off a denial of Our Lady’s Immaculate Conception by remarking that nobody – not even Joseph or Mary – “is born as a saint”.

Wow - I actually agree with him there - we are re-born as Saints once we accept Jesus as Lord and savior (I also don't believe a religious entity can declare someone a saint and make it so - there's always a side which only God knows about any of us).

Still waiting for him to spend some serious time preaching Jesus...

They left out the pope’s pronouncement that there is no eternal hell.
