Good riddance!
Let the Lord deal w him.
“Pope Francis dies at 88, leaving behind a changed Catholic Church - BREAKING “
Pope Francis dies at 88, leaving behind a decimated, compromised, irretrievably damaged Catholic Church.
Francis was a Left Wing radical, posing as a Catholic.
The Red Pope is Dead.
Strange that JPII died on the Feast of Divine Mercy (aka Low Sunday, the Sunday after Easter) and +Francis died on (I guess) Easter Monday Rome time. What are the odds that two Popes so close together would both die in the octave of Easter?
The next Pope will decide whether the Catholic church remains viable...
The profundity of this comment is immense.
We need a pope that focuses on the eternal rather than the temporal.
Should get interesting.
Roughly the same as picking the 3-digit daily number correctly.
Finally some Good News !
Unfortunately the cardinals and bishops he appointed will stay in office (Cupich, McElroy, etc.).
There were condolences from non-Catholic leaders. I don't recall seeing any from Muslims unless King Charles counts.
I predict an American Pope. But what do I know?
Hoping he found Jesus before he died
I couldn’t agree more.
God uses all for His Glory.
What did He use of YOU for His Glory during the Francis pontificate?
Are we spreading the Good News daily as we breathe?
Gulp. God have mercy on Francis’ soul, I see I need it for mine as well these last few years while I considered him maybe the anti-christ and now that might be me because frank is gone and I am not!! I have wasted this time not spreading as much Good News as I otherwise OUGHT to and Could have spread.
Forget my opinion of the next pope, I see what I must do during his pontificate....live and breathe THE GOOD NEWS of Jesus’ love and mercy.
Divine Mercy Sunday is the last day of the Easter Octave! Celebrate His Mercy! The big day of the Easter Octave. Think about that. Holy Moly.
It will be difficult for me to forgive him for axing or Bishop Strickland, a pious man who dared to criticize Frances.
👍
Joe visited England, squeezed out some silent but deadly ‘whistlers’, not long after, Queen Elizabeth dies.
How does he keep getting away with it?
The church needs a Pope that will recognize and confront the past sins of the church and make amends and ask for forgiveness. Until then the church will continue its decline.
OH, and stay out of leftist activism.
