I am of the mind that tis is a very dangerous papacy. The Jesuits have been a very poor example of Catholic orthodoxy for a very long time.

I thought that under Blessed John Paul II, the Jesuits got “cleaned up” bigtime.

I agree, shame though with other so called Christian churches turning from the Bible, the Catholic Church had a real opportunity to reclaim it’s mantle as the mother church. I am afraid it will lose all credibility as have Anglican and some Methodist and Lutherans.

Hard to argue that. The brutal treatment he has unleashed upon the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate speaks for itself. Apparently he is more concerned with stamping out "pelagian" boogeymen than addressing actual corruption and decay within the Church. The fawning media coverage and the praise of him by pro-aborts and by marxists is another red flag. Christians are supposed to be signs of contradiction, hated by the world. Being selected "Person of the Year" by Time and "Person of the Year" by a major gay magazine as a result of soft-peddling Church teaching to the media is a bizarre accomplishment for a Pope.
