Where do we draw the line when voting for a Catholic or Muslim? Muslims cannot support with any honesty our Constitution. Catholics, and there are many elected, hide behind their Catholicism for R.v W.

Both should recuse themselves when their faiths stand in the way of their veracity, regardless of party. voting for a Muslim is a different story, their beliefs are in direct opposition to their "sworn" oaths of office.

Lucifer is in control of the Papacy after more than 2000 years trying.

Money is the only thing these people understand. It is time to stop financing this craziness.

Long process (March) through history of the mid to late 20th century left us with hierarchies of church officials who went to lavender seminaries. when the Renewal comes the Church will look a lot more like the days of “In Hoc Signo Vinces”.

Jose Bergoglio is an anti pope. Pope Benedict is still the one and only Pope. For a good catholic perspective, see Ann Barnhardt’s site: https://www.barnhardt.biz/2020/10/21/the-catholic-church-and-the-anti-church-currently-co-exist-in-the-same-sacramental-liturgical-and-juridical-space/

Instead of accepting things explicitly called out in the old and new testaments as abominations, he could have said “forgive them Father for they know not what they do”and worked on educating them and explaining how true happiness depends on them turning from darkness. Sigh.

The Pope was “infallible” is what I was always told.

There will never be a healthy Catholic renewal, because the Catholic hierarchical structure relies on those in leadership to change it.

Parishioners have no say, except to stop giving or attending, which makes them no longer “parishioners.”

Could the modern Roman catholic Church be headed for a liberal/conservative split reminiscent of the Reformation???

Smaller denominations have already experienced such a liberal/conservative split - Lutherans, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, and the Methodists are close.

Benedict is the “nicer” guy, but ran away from the problems.

The problems are structural, Scriptural, and moral/legal, throughout.

Mel Gibson saw this writing on the wall decades ago, but all Catholics see him and his church as “apostate,” so there can be no hope for a change.

Pope Francis is not a man of God! Moreover, he seems to be a servent of Satan. One by one, he is attacking everything decent that the Church stands for and people are turning their heads to it. The clergy should now start to shut him down. He is making a proclamation that is completely adverse to what the Catholic Church believes and teaches. Homosexual people are doing something wrong, something perverse and they know it. They are playing with sex for their own titilation without any responsibility, and Francis knows it. This man is vile. He is what has been described as the false pope. He keeps coming up with more and more of these falacies. Every normal man and woman knows what is right and wrong. Every normal person knows what marriage is. So why are we putting up with kooks telling us that there is such a thing as gay marriage, even to include the United States Supreme Court?

the least any decent man in his job would do is make an effort to, at least, pretend he had any morals

teaching basic moral values are, after all, somewhat inherent in the job duties?

An incredible candidate for the False Prophet if ever there was one.

I never considered the CC as the church of Christ, not even a part of it

I predicted sometime back that he would eventually come out in favor of homosexual marriage. This is just a stepping stone.

when popes, cardinals, bishops, priests, nuns stand up for decency and morality, even the most alienated from the church can respect the church for the faithfulness and courage of its clerics

this pope, NOT.

The flamers don’t want civil unions, they want the sacrament of marriage.

You bunch of lemming like Catholic cowards, genuflecting to this heretic!

How can you not REVOLT? Would you do anything if Satan himself became pope? (maybe he already has).

What would Jesus do?

What would Mary do?
