The Pope really doesn’t like Republicans

I don’t like Jesuits, so we’re even.

And I was taught by Jesuits in high school.

Si amigo. Actually I think he needs to be thrown into “El Rio Tibro’’(the Tiber River) the way the ancient Romans used to do with emperors who fell out of favor.

Me, too. And I didn't like them then

This pat answer gets tiresome:

Benedict is still the Pope

Really? Then why does he continually fail to step up to the plate?

One bishop has put forward the idea of having a civil union law that applies to everyone. Instead of perverse sexual activity determining if people have the rights of a married couple, allow unions for any 2 people living together who designate each other. So relatives, friends, roommates, all sorts of partnerships.

Do you agree with him?

I don't! And why limit it to two people?

It's a mockery of marriage.

Gosh, let me close my eyes and read his f***ing mind. Whatever they used to force him to do his half-assed partial resignation (and yes, it was a partial resignation where he expressed his desire to "share" the pontificate with commie Francis), something not allowed by Church law, and was therefore blatantly invalid, was powerful enough to keep him from coming forward now. Threatened his family? Drugged him? What do evil people usually do?

We don't have a Pope. We have an arrogant secular ideologue who has angrily slapped the hand of a woman who grabbed on to his arm...

If you want to go deep into the "conspiracy theory" territory (and, as I've often said, in 2020 there are no longer conspiracy theories - there are simply things that have happened already and things that haven't happened yet) I've seen this postulated: the woman that grabbed Bergoglio was Chinese, and right at the start of the COVID nonsense in China. Perhaps Bergoglio knew of the upcoming COVID "pandemic" even before it gotten into full swing, and was therefore horrified at being touched by a woman who may very well have been a carrier?

Don’t give up on receiving the sacraments. Try to find a conservative priest. Usually the young priests are conservative. The old hippie ones are dying off.

Fr Altier at St. Raphael’s in Crystal MN has his homilies posted on the church webpage. Check him out. You can hear the truth, but you will still need to receive Holy Communion in person. Don’t give up on Christ. Your soul needs Him.

As a lifelong Catholic I'm not in despair. I no longer care what my immoral church says.

What you are describing is scandal, which is the loss of faith and hope. If you haven't read any of Ann Barnhardt's work, I strongly suggest you do. She has been researching and writing on this for over a decade now, and has contacts and references that go deep within the Church structure itself.

What you have to remember is that Satan's #1 goal is to get people to stray from the faith or give it up entirely. There is no better way to do this than to make them lose faith in their churches and leaders. Honestly, the sudden and severe departure of all churches, Protestant and Catholic alike, from scripture and Truth has been so violently disturbing to me in the last decade that it has served to make me MORE certain of the existence and the work of the devil, because I only believe in coincidences so much.

Here is one of Ann B's articles on scandal. She is the first to admit that Bergoglio is a lying satanic fraud, and she is STILL one of the most devout Catholics out there (a convert, naturally):

Really?

The following sure sounds like despair:

I think the Church is lost, it's turned it's back on God. It's merely a hedonistic left wing lobbying group now.

Despair is a sin. Hope is a virtue.

[neverevergiveup]

Maybe. Personally I just think he’s arrogant.

[ebb tide]

I don’t believe that.

Otherwise he would not have slapped her bare hand with his bare hand.

[fr_freak]

Maybe. Personally I just think he’s arrogant.

Works for me. I think the guy works for Satan, myself. Right now I'm at 60/40 these are the honest-to-God freaking endtimes.

[TheConservativeTejano]

Partner, you are correct that the Pope does not like America and the Catholics here in the U.S.A. could care less about this pope.

This Pope is terrible!!!

[Kickass Conservative]

Not my Pope.

[piusv]

Poor excuse for a “pope” then.

[cherry]

I’m not a very good church attending Catholic and as long as frank is in the Vatican, I guess I’ll remain that way.

[TECTopcat]

I am a Mass attending Catholic, just went to Mass for All Souls Day and election and several of us said this Pope can’t hold a candle to Pope John Paul II

[AFreeBird]

Back atcha, Frank.
