The Pope cannot change the Church
Thats why Catholics are not freaked out by this Pope. The bishops dont get together and vote this out of the tenets. Even if they did it would be them over riding the teaching of Jesus, therefore invalid
1034 of the Catechism says:
The teaching of the Church affirms the existence of hell and its eternity. Immediately after death the souls of those who die in a state of mortal sin descend into hell, where they suffer the punishments of hell, “eternal fire.”615 The chief punishment of hell is eternal separation from God, in whom alone man can possess the life and happiness for which he was created and for which he longs.
615 refers to the biblical reference from which the Catechism takes it
Matthew 25:41
41 Then He will also say to those on His left, Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels;
Since the whole system is flawed by your own admission, how can anyone believe Catholicism isn’t itself fundamentally flawed? Why even have a Pope then? This just proved the whole rigamarole about the white smoke and black smoke is a farce.
Matthew 25:41
41 Then He will also say to those on His left, Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels;
I’ve done many exorcisms over the years. All I do is pray and the Light gets so bright that they cower and try to hide from it. For me, the Light feels like Love.
Then I guide the spirit to look within itself to the depth of its soul. There they find a spark of Light within them. This I use to convince them that they have been deceived by satan.
