Wow! You'll really bend over backwards to defend you heretic buddies, Bergoglio and Barron, won't you, Murph?

Connect the dots:

“There is, for example, a large Catholic television channel that has no hesitation in continually speaking ill of the pope...They are the work of the devil. I have also said this to some of them.”

To: ebb tide

I attended Catholic School and Church grades 1 - 12. I was an alter boy for years and I did have my Confirmation. My first brother is a Roman Catholic Church Priest. My parents were married in the church and did not practice birth control therefore ending with 9 children and they stayed married for 44 years until death did they part.

Having said that, when the Church got rid of a living Pope and replaced him with a marxist, socialist...I said bye bye. I’ve no use for Franky who you might note came from the the Continent of South America where 93% of self identified practicing Catholics live. Plus he decided that John 23rd was wrong when he said the Church should not be involved in politics.

There are many many things this Pope says and does that are indefensible.

Distorting what he says now and again for the purpose of pearl clutching/wrist slashing headlines is equally indefensible- and NO WAY TO THE TRUTH.

There was no "bending over backwards" required in showing how this misleading headline was written to garner eyeballs.

Do you NOT AGREE that it is the devils work to attack the Church?

This Pope has an agenda- he is admitting that. And he deserves his criticism like he is freely admitting. He does not seem to care. But he also knows- HE is NOT the Church.

No Man is.

Well done. You managed to demonstrate

(I) that you have to cut an entire sentence in order to change what the “they” is referring to, in order to support this false claim.
(ii) that you need to resort to intimidation and name calling to defend this false claim because the actual quote does not support it.

This is like arguing over whether Trump said “all Mexicans are criminals” (spoiler alert — he didn’t). When you challenge people who make this claim they use carefully edited quotes, name calling and intimidation.
