“The current Pope is probably for killing a baby out of the womb”
I have my problems with Francis but don’t understand how you can make that statement. When sick babies or injured adults are denied basic life-sustaining treatment and die and it becomes news, he has always spoken out strongly against it.
Interesting topic though. In my home I suffered under heretical Jansenistic Catholicism which goes way overboard on God’s Justice to the almost denial of His Great Mercy which is present even in the Old Testament (Is 1:15-20; Joel 2:12-14). Can result in Scrupulosity.
And yet some people who speak of excess guilt are trying to do away with healthy guilt. When the natural law is broken through abortion, contraception, homosexual acts, or even when the sins are not unnatural but grave, there should be guilt. No to excess guilt but yes to legitimate guilt which is conscience’s way of saying something is off, something is wrong.
A lot of Jewish people were at the forefront of legitimizing porn, abortion, gay marriage and their guilt is not “Jewish” guilt but legitimate guilt. IMO, part of Biden’s anger is he knows many of the evils he defends are wrong. Deep down he knows he’s a fake Catholic.

Same thing Adolph said. Welcome back to 1930’s Germany and the collective guilt of the JOOOOS.
