The Next Pope Should at Least be Catholic

Pope Francis doesn’t like America. Pope Francis doesn’t like capitalism. It is unclear whether Pope Francis even likes Catholicism. Whatever the case may be, he seems to be doing everything he can to dissuade Catholics from remaining in the Church, and to keep prospective Catholics from joining.

When certain Christian leaders, such as the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, or the Southern Baptist Convention president, J.D. Greear, speak, nobody listens. Why? Because they sacrificed Christendom, and the glorious civilization it produced, upon the altar of wokeness a long time ago. When the pope speaks, people still listen. But that’s rapidly changing, and for the same reason.

A few of Pope Francis’ more memorable pronouncements are worth noting:

• After the Uvalde school shooting, he told a Vatican crowd that, “It’s time to say ‘Enough’ to the indiscriminate trade of weapons!” 
• He blamed capitalism for much of the world’s “pain, death, and destruction,” and referred to it as the “dung of the devil.”  He called for “structural change” and for a “just distribution” of land, lodging, and labor. 
• He attributed George Floyd’s death to the “sin of racism.” 
• He sneered that market capitalism and neo-liberalism are “magic theories,” and blamed them not only for the spread of coronavirus, but also for inequality in general. 
• He blamed the ghastly murders of Europeans by Muslim immigrants, as well as the creation of ISIS, on the world’s alleged worship of the “god of money,” and referred to capitalism as “terrorism against all of humanity.” 
• He blamed Putin’s invasion of Ukraine to “NATO barking at Russia’s gate” and the “West’s attitude.” 
• And he responded to criticism from American Catholics by saying, “It’s an honor if the Americans attack me.” 

Pope Francis is also noteworthy for what he doesn’t say.

Take, for instance, when in 2015 he visited Cuba and gallivanted around with Raul Castro, a man whose legacy includes murdering and imprisoning Christians.  Not once did Pope Francis offer any criticism whatsoever of the bloody communist regime, nor utter a single word of solidarity with its victims.  And for the spontaneous protests of the Cuban people in 2021 and 2022, and the resulting brutal government crackdown?  Not a peep.

He oughtta be Christian as well.................

Bergoglio is a phony. Wears the garb of a pope, but is a Marxist under his vestments.

[Paleo Conservative]

He at least ought to belong to an Abrahamic faith.

“The Next Pope Should at Least be Catholic”

LOL! and how true!

This pope managed to turn the answer to the question,

“Is the pope Catholic?”,

asked whenever one desired a yes for an answer to a preceding question, from an obvious “yes”, to a resounding “NO”.

To get a “yes” answer, I now ask “Is the pope a marxist?”

[adorno]

The current pope?

More like the current poop.

The devil in disguise.

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

..and believe in God.

[ConservativeMind]

What force led all the Cardinals to vote in this current guy?

[MercyFlush]

An article of interest for you good sir.

[ebb tide]

Thank-you for the ping.

The following shouldn't surprise anyone:

Could the Pope meet China’s president in Kazakhstan?

Francis has already expressed his desire to meet with his mini-me, Kim Jong-un, ruthless, godless dictator of North Korea. He's met with Raul Castro of Cuba and Evo Morales of Bolivia.

“Pope Francis doesn’t like America. Pope Francis doesn’t like capitalism. It is unclear whether Pope Francis even likes Catholicism.”

He doesn’t seem to be particularly enamored with God either

Maybe the votes were tabulated using a Dominion machine?

[irishjuggler]

Alas, the man never met a Marxist thug he didn’t love nor a conservative Catholic he didn’t hate.

The False Prophet.

Not to long after this fraud pope took power Ireland was on the verge of voting for abortion on demand and same-sex “marriage. Ireland, the once most Catholic country in the world. Not a peep out of the fraud pope before the vote. Not a word or support to the millions of Catholics as they went to vote. After abortion on demand was approved not a peep from the fraud pope. The exact same thing happened on marriage. Not a word about it from him before the vote and after same-sex “marriage” was made legal not a w peep from the fraud pope. I knew then and there this character was not a Christian and damn sure was not the pope. He sat by and watched the once most Catholic country in the world fall into the ocean.

The False Prophet

Where in the world did you ever get the idea, the Pope or the Papal office had a "prophetic" nature to it?

Never has it been suggested by the Church that any Pope-or his duties -are to be considered prophetic.

That's a heretical idea, and one the Church has never taught. Your claim is incorrect.

The fundamental role of the Chair of Peter is to maintain and ensure unity of the Church down through the centuries as it has to this day. The Pope fulfills this role by enforcing its teachings and to assist Religious and Laity in witnessing to the Faith of Christ Resurrected.

It is because of this Pope's poor performance of these responsibilities as Pontiff, he is failing, and so criticized.
It has NOTHING to do with supposed "prophesy" that you are falsely attributing to the Papal office - or are laying in wait for.
The Pope is not a prophet.
Ain't his job.

[metmom]

It has nothing to do with the pope’s job description.

Your current pope with his policies and decisions is a shoe in for the False Prophet of the book of Revelation. The stuff he is spouting is exactly what I would expect an antichrist supporting, one world religionist, false prophet to say.

[MurphsLaw]

Anti-Christ...lol
Though one could guess after 500 years of the same 'ol song -
there's bound to be a few anti-Christs' sneak in...

More not-Catholic nuttery...

[Campion]

Revelation doesn't say anything about any "policies or decisions" in connection with the false prophet. It says that he will "work signs" to deceive those who have accepted the MotB or worshipped his image.

I don't see +Francis "working" any "signs," do you? Well, there's wrecking the church, but I don't see any MotB receivers being deceived by that.

His time grows short anyway. Soon he will have to give an accounting of it.
