McElroy’s appointment sends an unmistakable signal about the direction Pope Francis intends to take the Church in his waning papacy – a signal confirmed by a slew of other high-level Vatican appointments announced this week.

Nothing to see here folks. He’s taking a clue from the Deep State and is “packing the court” to push his (but not Gods) agendas.

The whole thing seems more than a bit queer.

You have to decide when you stop being a Catholic and start being a Mere Christian who follows Jesus along the Way of the Cross. The Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ says that the Harlot, Mystery Babylon, will kill a lot of Christians even before the Anti-Christ comes to power for his 42 months. “Come out of her, my people!”

No, sorry, that’s not the way it works. You have to decide how to be a faithful Catholic when many of the shepherds over you aren’t faithful Catholics, but heretics and traitors to Christ and his Church. Running away is cowardly.

Romans 1 speaks clearly to the sin of homosexuality. The Church is in serious trouble when the Pope and numerous Cardinals, Bishops and Priests begin cherry picking New Testament scripture they agree with and ignoring and/or misinterrupting New Testament scripture that disagrees with their godless worldview.
The gospel of Grace is not the gospel of license. The Holy Spirit who directed the writers of the New Testament has not changed His mind. The Holy Spirit who directed the writings of saintly Church fathers and doctors has not changed His mind.
Today's apostate false ministers of the gospel are condemned by the scriptures they claim to proclaim. - Romans 6.

Exactly why this pope chose him.

To paraphrase Ronald Reagan...catholics aren't leaving the church, the church has left the catholics. There comes a time when leaving is the only viable option. Otherwise, we'd still be British subjects.

The Church looked the other way about the sexual abuse in the Church, now besides embracing the LGBT destuctive lifestyle, they are embracing the priests connected to the sexual abuse of others.

Well Bob there's a problem there...
The Catholic Bible tells us that if we Love Jesus
we have to pick up our Cross and THEN follow HIM.
Following along "the Way of the Cross" sounds warm and lofty and all that... but sooner or later we have to fight the evil, and not try to run from it. Thete is no safe space here Following Christ
That means some pretty unpleasant things will come our way.
In this case, that same Bible tells us, it's hopefully remaining as Wheat among the Tares... as we wait for the Harvest..
As Christ promised us, we can't live with 'em, can't live with out 'em.
The Bad weeds that is. They are there wherever you go.
Nor can we run away from them though.
We MUST Perserve against them.
Your house is on fire.
There are 3 choices.
One can run cowardly away from it and be safe,
like the Apostles did at Calvary...
Or one can look for accelerents, to fuel the fire for max. damage to burn it all down (like ebb)...
Or you can stay and fight the fire, and preserve as much as you can, of what you love.
There is pain and danger in doing so, but that is what is asked of us...
and worthy of the Sacrifice that was made for us.
And that's not just a mere hypothetical.

You seem to equate exposting apostacy and apostate church leaders to "burning it down". If so, then so be it!
Let there be light!

Yeah.... No.... you’re thinking of a different kind of Light…lol...
51 When the days drew near for him to be received up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him;
53 but the people would not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem.
54 And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said,
“Lord, do you want us to bid fire come down from heaven and consume them?”
55 But he turned and rebuked them.
56 And they went on to another village.

No, sorry, that’s not the way it works. You have to decide how to be a faithful Catholic when many of the shepherds over you aren’t faithful Catholics, but heretics and traitors to Christ and his Church. Running away is cowardly. Actually, continuing to support Catholicism whether by money, attendance, or excuse making is being disobedient to God’s instructions in Scripture about dealing with sin within the body.
It’s no different than saying, *I’m personally opposed to abortion but support the democrat party anyways.*
If you vote democrat, you support abortion by default.
If you support the Catholic “church” you are supporting these men and the sin they espouse.
You can’t separate the people from the body. Without the people there is no church. It is not a sentient stand alone entity that can exist outside of the people who make it up.
