No mere Pope is going to make me give up the sacraments.
+1
His glib and gross commentary regarding coprophagia/coprophilia offered a major clue.
At a minimum, Francis is simply a bad communicator, and therefore a bad evangelist, and a bad leader. So, take care with every single thing he says.
This is a distortion of Jesus’ teaching of Matthew 18:15-17 imo.
While I don’t promote war, this miguided pope is arguably promoting the Stockholm syndrome imo.
He could reference Bible passages, but he doesn't do that too much, if at all.
Obviously, you did not get the memo. Decades ago, Liberal Protestantism changed them to the "Ten Suggestions".
The Secular Left has dubbed them the "Ten Oppressions".

I guess those Catholics shouldn’t be so rigid about abortion either. Yeah Ok.
The 10 Suggestions.
Are you a born again Christian....do you know what that means....?
Do you believe the bible?
If you did you would understand why this POPE is Dangerous to all faiths.
That’s true, and I was disappointed when Ratzinger/Benedict stepped down. The replacement you got is a disaster.
He’s not stupid. Anybody who is successful in rigging a papal election in his favor and succeeding, in convincing the entire world that he’s their super-hero and hoodwinking the majority of Catholic’s with his new false-mercy religion is not stupid. He’s evil.
This or nothing eh?
So will he finally take all the anathemas down from the Council of Trent?
What hypocrisy.
Not that he is any better on any other topic he talks about.
The 10 Suggestions
Unless it's to call him a heretic.
This guy is getting on my nerves.
Papa Tango discouraged the Protestant “bishop” Tony Palmer from pursuing his intentions to convert to Catholicism. That’s how Francis treats his closest brothers.
How do you think he treats his more distant brothers, traditional Catholics?
Our Lord did not hang on the Cross for three hours so you could quit and save your money when times get tough. One day you will have to explain to Him your decision. Pray and wait for the next guy. “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of everlasting life”.
Why should protestator like myself care about the Catholic Church? Catholicism is numerically the largest component of Christendom and despite our significant theological differences, protestants should appreciate the Catholic Church’s historical commitment to issues such as life, family and marriage. Protestants should weep at the liberal turn it has taken. No schadenfreude here.
I knew the meaning of the words, but I have lived 62 years without using either one, not even once. I suspect he is the first Pope EVER to use them.
