The rapid fire umbrage being taken everywhere is a sign of the times, where sound doctrine is rejected wholesale, in favor of chasing unicorns of titillating scandal and nefarious deeds of fallen man, in rapidly falling nations.

Salvation Outside the Church is now sound doctrine?

Sound doctrine, you say?

Pope Francis and the Old Covenant

[RitaOK]

We are, unto our own salvation, the Bride and Body of the Christ. HE is the Head. He is Mercy, “on those whom He will”. That is all I have been taught.

The Pope, in his remarks, was not all that comforting to those outside the Church, I didn’t think, but dared not condemn the agnostic/atheist reporter nor dared remove all hope for him.

I am more than willing to appreciate his kind witness to the poor, than to be prematurely anxious over his language and regional politics differences with us in the West. He has never experienced free enterprise and is uninformed of our benefits from capitalism, but obviously subjected to propaganda.
