Agreed. I’m hoping that the Catholic Church can weather this current pope, and the next one will be better.

> refrain from building themselves up by pointing out the faults of others <

Are you saying that Francis should not be criticized? If so, I strongly disagree.

When I hear this pope speak, I realize just how big and powerful the globalists are.

They’ve installed a operative at the head of the Catholic church.

Instead of growing the church in the name of Christ, this pope pushes communism and seeks to soften everyone to the inevitability of Islamic invasion.

As Opposed to muzzies bombing stabbing and driving cars into crowds. No Conservative Christians are clearly the problem.

Did you know that John Robinson fixed the post tool so it accepts really long titles now?

This pope guy chump is pure evil. In his world, a "rigid Christian" is someone who believes the Bible as the Holy Word of God, and takes God's commandants seriously.

Hatred is fueled by the Godless Left. They hate Christians the most, because the Object of our Faith shines a piercing light on their dark, depraved souls, and they can’t stand it.

Once again, if Jorge is not the False Prophet of Revelation, he is trying very hard to audition for the job.

The paper can write its own headlines but it shouldn't put things in quotes if they aren't direct quotations.

Pope Francis Has Blasted Conservative Christians, Warning That: ‘Rigid Conservative Christians Are Actually Creating A Minefield Of Hatred’

That's two "Conservative Christians," one presented as a direct quote when it wasn't a phrase the pope actually used.

What he meant and didn't mean by "rigidity" wasn't spelled out so clearly. I've no doubt that he's some kind of liberal, but what that means in real world terms isn't always well defined.

Translation....

Francis is more interested in managing the decline of, rather than holding firm to the faith.

The Pope said that the church does not have the authority it once did.

This begs the question.. can he tell me when God lost His authority (if he even believes in Him anymore)?

That point has been passed. This pope is becoming more irrelevant every day.

How is that reconciled against the pope’s supposed papal infallibility regarding church doctrine? What happens when the pope announces a new doctrine that is heresy if the church has already said that he’s preserved from the possibility of error?

Does the heresy get overruled by papal infallibility and become church doctrine?

I believe we will see this play out very soon, if it hasn’t happened already.
