Have added the theme to my list of Francis"isms". Here are a few others:

On wanting physical proof: Our Lady doesn't work in a post office, She doesn't mail out letters every day.

On what it means to be a christian: Do you want to live your life like a burning lamp, or an extinguished one?.

To pastors: The Confessional is not a 'torture chamber'

The Sacrament of the Eucharist is not a 'magic rite'

And, one of my all time favorites: Don't live the faith as if it were a non-stop funeral.

Read Pope Paul IV’s Apostolic Constitution “Cum Ex Apostolic Officio” issued on February 15, 1559. It deals with the validity of a prelate or Pope in the event they are in heresy or apostasy. Since it is regarding faith and morals and was issued ex cathedra (from the Chair of Peter), it is therefore considered not only infallible, but to be held in perpetuity.

I thought Catholics where supposed to use pre written “prayers” from pray books.
Nice to know you can have a conversation with God now.

Consider, for a moment, the logical possibility that your previous thought was wrong.

So Catholics don’t have prayer books which they read or have memorize at the services?
