The number one job of the inquisition was to reconcile sinners and heretics with the Church. I think he does that.

You've got to be kidding. Right?

Pope Francis has come flat out and said he has no intent to convert evangelicals to Catholicism.

“You’ve got to be kidding. Right?”

Nope.

“Pope Francis has come flat out and said he has no intent to convert evangelicals to Catholicism.”

They’re converting anyway. Also, sinners and heretics do not have to be Evangelicals. Plenty of them are baptized Catholics who have never formally left the Church. There are plenty of Catholics in Europe, America and South America who have returned to a practice of the faith because of Pope Francis.

Yes, he’s bringing some folks to the New Religion, but not to Tradition. With any luck those folks will find the Traditional Catholic Faith.
