>>>Can someone please tell me what doctrine or teaching he has officially changed during his time in office?

Well, there is this wee matter:

“So often [people ask]: ‘But do you believe?’: ‘Yes! Yes! ‘; ‘What do you believe in?’; ‘In God!’; ‘But what is God for you?’; ‘God, God’. But God does not exist: Do not be shocked! So God does not exist! There is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, they are persons, they are not some vague idea in the clouds ... This God spray does not exist! The three persons exist!”

(Bergoglio at Santa Marta: What we dare not hope for”, News.va, Oct. 9, 2014)

It would be great to have that quote from the Pope on a reading comprehension test -— after you’ve had a week studying literary and social context.

It’s quite clear Pope Francis is contrasting two models of “God”, one impersonal and the other personal. He is saying that God does not exist as a “ god spray,” a “vague idea in the clouds”, but as the Persons of the Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

In other words he is rejecting the god of Deism, a vague force, energy or vibe, and proclaiming the Personal Trinitarian God of Christianity.

He supposed to do that.

He’s the pope.

For heaven’s sake.
