Glad to see the senior leadership in the church challenge Francis’ comments.
What ever happened to Ecumenism? Weren’t the various Protestant denominations only supposed to be “separated brethren”?
In the Catholic Church, I don’t think it is a democracy. I think it is a dictatorship....in a good way (I am Catholic). I think what the Pope says is gospel. The Archbishop may be reassigned to Syria to watch over the injured.
Actually, the pope did say that the non-Catholic woman could not receive, but, typically, he snaked the conversation for much too long prior to saying that.
“Intercommunion is not permitted between Catholics and non-Catholics. You must confess the Catholic Faith. A non-Catholic cannot receive Communion. That is very, very clear. It’s not a matter of following your conscience.” ...
This just shows the cult the Catholic Church has become
Just look at what was decided by Peter,Paul etc, when some Christian Jews wanted to have Gentiles to keep the laws that the Jews had struggled with.
It was decided that faith in Christ was all that was necessary, but that the Gentiles should abstain from eating things that were sacrificed to idols , and from Sexual Immorality
Denominations outside of simple Christianity are not what was ever intended
BTTT!
