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.
No, they will fail to. The followers of Jesus will prevail. Hopefully the Catholics “Come out of her, My people” before they fall with her.
I question how people thought they were so great in the first place. connecting with people is worthless if they preach falsehood.
While you may be right, that is true of the whole office, not just any one Pope.
Can’t have jumped ship when they were always on it.
Those prophecies aren’t in the Bible. But ones in the Bible could have him being the antichrists’s right hand man. Or the “woman” who rides the beast.
To be fair, Satan is pretty Biblically informed too. So that isn’t itself a good enough qualifier.
Incorrect. Satan FOUNDED the vatican.
Not as much as YOU do. otherwise A, you would know popes don’t folow Christ,and B, this guy talks a good game, but does not practice what he preaches.
Not so nutty, you view of “worship” is just limited. When they say the man has his own temple, lives like a king is said to be INFALLIBLE, these all seem like forms of him at least LORDING over his flock.
Might be low balling that number.
