Catholicism is as Catholicism does.

And right now, this Francis fellow is doing more to put that whole ‘infallibility’ thing into question than any Pope since the Renaissance.

The Catholic Church emerged the winner out of the Dark Ages because it preserved Roman culture.

What culture, if any, is the present day Catholic Church and its Pope preserving and promoting?

The Pope is only infallible when speaking ex cathedra on matters of faith and morals.

>Ex cathedra meaning "On the Throne," in various classical languages.

See # 22; the Catholic Church survived in the East even as Rome fell.

The Pope & Church are preserving the institution of marriage and the sanctity of life; many other “Christian” denominations have folded on both.
