***Mind you, all these came from faithful Catholics!***

I feel so lost that all of my Catholic friends are enamored with this Pope. I am not, and I feel like I’m supposed to support him, but I just can’t. He doesn’t really seem to be that Catholic to me.

Is it just that he’s so ultra-liberal? He seems so much like a politician to me. I’ve never felt this way about a Pope before.

Unless it’s here on FR, I feel like I have no place where I can express my ideas about him. It’s very disturbing to me that I see so many Catholics, good friends of mine, fawn over this guy. To me, he is just another human being. I respect him, but I feel no connection to him otherwise.

The only thought that helps me, is that maybe he is here to save some who have wandered from the fold. His opinions make me think about wandering.

You are not alone in your thinking.

As a catholic woman, I had an eerie feeling when he became pope. The feeling gets worse each and every time he does or says something.

You feel this way on FR because most of them think Catholics suck! Congrats! Feel Good?
