It seems like Pope Francis is determined to see that his papacy is marked by an extraordinary level of controversy, much of it generated by him within the Catholic Church itself. While the Christian faith is no stranger to theological disputes since its inception 2,000 years ago, some periods have obviously been marked by more vigorous debates than others, much to the regret of devoted adherents to the Faith.
Yet Pope Francis doesn’t seem to be troubled by being the center of some very divisive disputes, or the fact that he is the one who has created them.
He has taken a strong position in favor of open immigration, and has made statements on theology that are in direct opposition to historic Christian doctrine such as his proclamation that all religions worship the same god.
He recently took a very charitable and supportive position on Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro, an avowed atheist, who just died.
But this time he may have really done it. See page two.
He cares more about “climate change” than his church!!
On the money, Zen hit the mark, no question
such a strong message he is wrong
The pope didn’t lose it. He never had it. What a huuuuge mistake the Catholic Church made. Huuuuge!
Yes, he hit that on the head. He is 100% right.
This cardinal is 100% right
No matter who is the leader of an organization, church, government, club, NO one should follow blindly. I can follow leaders that follow God. If that leader is NOT following Biblical principles then I can’t follow them. IF someone was going to call the Pope wrong about a Chinese issue I guess it is best that an Asian Cardinal is doing it.
I agree!!
No real surprise… Francis is a product of a very communist university system in Argentina…
to wit: the same system that produced one Ernesto Guevara…. and hundreds of others just like him who have spread their ideology and lethal violence throughout South and Central America… and even into Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East…
And now it seems, into the very halls and chambers of the Vatican itself…
pope francis is a religious hack with aspiratioms of political greatness…a word to the wise…GOD is watching and he don’t like Roman Catholics!
