The Catholic College of Cardinals elected him according to protocol and you have no say in the matter.

He’s the personification of Catholicism, like it or not, and as such represents the Catholic religion to the rest of the world.

You can personally rebel against your religion and its official leader, but your religion also condemns you for that. It is not an option for Catholics who wish to go to heaven according to your own early church fathers and other Catholic teachings.

The George Floyd riots were a rush to judgement. George Floyd was dying from a drug overdose and became out of control when they tried to stuff him into the back of the police car. He died from cardiac arrest.

That reprobate needs to be nailed to a cross and displayed on a major thoroughfare.

Nope, not money.

Leaving corruption of an organization that claims to represent Christ to the world in exchange for money. If you give Catholicism enough money you can buy any amount of salvation and *graces* from them, so they say.

Problem is, they are making merchandise of God, just like the money changers that Jesus drove out of the temple.

Skimming a profit off what God gives free to the world is extortion by Catholicism.

Catholicism cannot afford that luxury.

They claim the moral high ground and to represent Christ to the world, then they better live like it.

God has something to say about taking His name in vain and that doesn’t just mean using it as a swear word.

MUST WATCH

https://www.infowars.com/

If ad pops up click x in upper right to get rid of ad. Scroll down past yellow to next area. Click sound icon which is off to turn sound on and play show. Informative god-fearing good man IMO.

I can verify what he is saying about vaccines with my own life experience in my family, friends, acquaintances

I’ll leave it at that for now.

OOPS. One more thing. My wife was raised Catholic. She still goes to church. My sis converted to Catholic because her best friend Diane was in a big 7-child Catholic family 2 doors away. The boy in the house next door to us of 3 boys got his vaccine shot. He was never the same. Stop. Yikes.

My daughter’s hubby is Michael. I call him St. Michael. Good man. He has a son Lincoln who was to have a twin brother. RIP Liam. No body knew at that time.

My early girlfriend in Detroit who I (Lincoln Park) still keep in touch with gave me a medal to keep on me. I wore it around my neck for years and then let it dangle wrapped around my rearview mirror. St. Christopher medal. I had no idea who he was or what that meant. I do now. Be careful on the freeways and surface streets. There are some high speed drivers out there dodging in and out with very little room for any error. I don’t know why but something might be stressing them out. I never seen anything like it during my travels lately. Stay alert. Food phone music is a distraction. When split seconds count. Slow down. Use the right hand lane. Check your blind spots. Check your rearview mirror.

Marilyn Rose Kavalko was raised Catholic. Single parent mother to her and her sister Rosemary. Her father died when she was a little girl. I forgot how. Marilyn’s mom was Mary. Very religious. Was always praying in her house saying the rosary. My other girlfriend’s father died when she was a little girl. Working on the Ambassador Bridge connecting USA to Canada. A long crane carrying a long I-beam fell and it killed him. Frank Deaton, father of Kathy Diane Deaton. I never met him, but told him I was sorry in prayer. Kathy’s mom was Mary also. She was a great seamstress. She made pants and shirt for me. I was 19. Went with Kathy for 2 years. She dumped me. I split with Marilyn when I went to CMU. She was still a senior at Redford HS in Detroit. I hooked up with Kathy when I transferred to Wayne St. My CMU baseball scholarship. Pffft. Didn’t care about it. That summer, yes the summer of ‘69 (forgot who sang that one), I discovered something that I liked more than baseball. Girls. That darn Kathy. : )

What a life of stories. Write yours down folks. Archive them. Pass them on for future generations. Print them off. Laminate them. Don’t let them get scrubbed from this machine. Your books of Mary, John, Mike, Marilyn, Kathy, Peggy, whoever, etc.

My story is from Phil. That’s me. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

He would have been a good New York politician. He missed his calling.

That's a false statement. No wonder you left the True Church. Some prot fed you a bunch of lies.

A decade ago, would you have said “I can’t fathom being an American now with this jackass as head.”?

Indulgences anyone?

Catholic history is replete with corruption and immorality and extortion.

Anyone can read that for themselves and see.

Actually I still could. Now, I’m more dubious about it now that tyranny in the name of safety has broken out, alongside lawlessness by their stormtroopers rioting.

No offense to Catholics. I just know that there are good and bad things about having one official leader. This is one of the bad times. Maybe not as bad as Borgias, but pretty distressing.
