His Holiness seems to be living in an alternate universe. Most peoples' connection with Church doctrine comes in the form of Mass homilies. When was the last time you heard a homily on abortion, contraception or homosexual behavior. I don't see the "obsession"!

The Pope may be the anti Christ?? I have no idea, but let`s cut to the chase. The Pope is and never was Holy! There is no mention of the Pope in my Bible, that I read daily. He is and has always been just a man.

There is only one mediator between man and God, and that is Christ Jesus! We are not to pray to Mary, though she is very special no doubt, but we don’t ask Mary into our life, Mary did not die on cross for our sins

There is no purgatory , we are not to pray to man, as do so many Catholics, praying to so called “Saints”

A Saint is just a simple Christian, this whole idea about Sainting people as the Catholic Church does is simply ridiculous and NOT Scriptural

Not Catholic, but only a Christian, but time for people to see that the Catholic Church is dead, just like most/all of main line Churches

Get behind me Satan

New King James Version (NKJV)

Matthew 23:9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.

I can tell you that in my Catholic church, NEVER.

Lots of pleas for more $$$, and a nice homily opposing the death penalty, and oh, yeah, the St. Francis celebration where pets are blessed.

Where does the Pope see Catholic priests "obsessing" over abortion or homosexuality?

Let me know, I wouldn't mind hearing such a Mass.

I’m very sadly amazed at my fellow FReepers who question everything out of the MSM except misquotes of Catholic clergy. Go read his words for yourself and find that he was actually saying the Gospel is bigger than narrow special interests. These areas are important but they are not the full message of salvation.

Gee, next he will be accusing pro-lifers of having a love affair with the fetus.

I don’t believe the Pope used the word “obsessed” so why the quotes?
