Francis and Henry share exactly the same kind of personality, and, except for the womanizing Yeah, pretty sure womanizing isn't the problem for Francis.

No. He isnt a fervent defender of the Depositum Fidei and the Magisterium of the Church. If he thinks its wrong, then he isnt Catholic and should make it official and leave the Church.
Even if hes right.

Is a bear Catholic? Does the Pope do THAT in the woods?
Some things are perfectly obvious.
Just not this Pope. He remains a mystery - who chose him, and why?

Let US pray that misguided; immigration, Islam, and climate bridge builder Pope Francis gets a Colonel Boggie moment ( the lead character in the movie Bridge On The River Qwai played by Alex Guiness) and does a mea culpa and finally decides to question the results of what he’s done what hes done and falls on the dentonator which destroys the bridges he built) and resigns.

The ImPopester was installed by the New World Order to eradicate the moral authority of the Catholic Church and prepare the flock for slaughter by muslims.

The papacy has always believed that it had the power to change Scripture or to ignore it. This is one of the main reasons that the Reformers called the papacy the Antichrist.

"Is the Pope a Catholic?"
No. He's a Jesuit.
To: ebb tide
This matters because the Lords Prayer is common to Christians of all denominations.
Which means zip. Too many people are unaware that the Catholic bible is not the KJV and has serious differences.
If the bible isn’t common, the Lord’s Prayer is trivial in comparison. Do a side-by-side reading of the Ten Commandments, for example.

A beautiful hope. Let us pray that Bergoglio will come to his senses and a state of grace, and destroy in a magnificent moment all the evil he has done.

Pope is potentially Catholic, if by Catholic, you mean a sinner open to God’s grace, and an instrument in His hands.

"The papacy has always believed that it had the power to change Scripture or to ignore it." This is untrue.
And one part which might have escaped your notice, but which is in your Scripture and in mine:
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. |

Go ahead and do it for us. Chapter and verse. KJV vs Douai-Rheims, or NASB (widely regarded as one of the most literally translated of 20th-century English Bible translations) vs NABRE (Catholic), or your choice.
