So a pope can declare anything he wants? If that’s the case I don’t want to hear anymore fussing about Francis.
The declaration of sins forgiven is not "anything he wants", and anything a pope does declare must not be contradictory to either scripture or previously infallibly declared doctrines. The problem with Francis is he fails on both requirements. So your supposed contradiction doesn't exist.
Who cares what you do or don't want to hear? I don't want to "hear" the incessant ignorant, idiotic, anti-Catholic twaddle from certain non-Catholics on this forum. Do I get that? No. It's called "Free" Republic for a reason. Your wants are irrelevant. You always have the option of avoiding "Catholic" related threads and discussing other matters.
Go read up on the Northern Crusades before
making up your mind on how noble they were.
