As a practicing Roman Catholic I feel I need to remind everyone that this institution has had all kinds of bad popes and when they forget the admonition “My Kingdom Is Not Of This World” .This church gets into all sorts of trouble. But survives.
These meandering homilys of This pope on temporal matters diffuse any theologic message Pope Francis offers. Snowballs should be thrown at those pointy hat supporters of his as well as opposition clearly expressed to those meanderings on any visit Francis may make here.
So true.
That is all well and good, however, when was the last time a bad pope got the chance to screw non-Catholics over by siding so strongly with the Left?
And sorry, but right now the concern is less with the survival of your church, and more about survival in general with the boost this doughhead has given lefty leaning governments.
