“I have seen little of that latter, required, respectful tone from many on this forum who call themselves Catholic. “
‘Required, respectful tone’ is required only for legitimate popes. You can’t have two, right, Pope Benedict?
“in fact are duty bound to at least consider what he says, take it to heart, pray about it, think about it some more and then make a judgment”
No Catholic is required to consider Satan’s point of view, either directly or through his minions. In fact, any sincere contemplation is forbidden, naturally. This papacy possibly is Satan’s crowning (and potentially final) achievement, a direct attack on the Church, and anything but outright militant rebellion against it is sinful and deficient for any Catholic or other Christian.
It’s not that we weren’t warned: tagline
Oh good grief.....sigh
True! Except most speak of Francis as if they still believe he is a true pope.
