No Catholic is under any obligation to follow anything this communist poser decrees. He’s a fake pope.
I remember a real pope… A Polish guy who actually fought communists and help the president and a Prime Minister bring down an evil empire.
A damn fine human being who actually defended the Faith and the Faithful…
Where does any lay Catholic get the right to pass judgment on the duly elected leadership of their church?
Your college of cardinals elected him according to standard protocol. He’s your pope, like it or not.
And as such, must be obeyed by the faithful.
