The Pope’s address to the European Union Parliament a couple of years or so back was largely a rebuke. He talked about Europe’s childlessness as a sign of a lack of hope for the future. He talked about Europeans trying to live as if there is no God. His words largely sounded like a continuation of the thought of Benedict and John Paul on the graying and dying of Europe.
Yes, there are problems with this papacy with regard to words the Pope chooses to use at times, and maybe even with some of the thought of the Holy Father himself. But he will not be allowed to formally teach an error in either faith or morals and the comments on here of him as solely a liberal apostate cheering on Muslim marauders are untrue and unbalanced.
Take off your rose-colored glasses. He rebuked a pregnant Catholic mother, expecting her eight child by C-section, as being "crazy" and "tempting God". And he also suggested artificial birth control could be used in fear of the Zika virus; i.e., he recommended eugenics.
Thank you for saying this. It deserves serious and frequent pondering. Some people (I'll include my culpa here) forget that detraction is an actual sin and can even be a mortal one, depending on the circumstances; and that justice and charity are due to Francis, as to all people, and even if he *is* the pope.
