Pope Marx is Satan.
“And as for our Protestant friends, let us recall that Christian can only be understood as Catholic.”
The current pope is in evidence against that proposition.
Non sequitur.
As a fundamentalist, I count the pope as an enemy of faith, so we’re even.
The present Pope is to Catholicism what Obama was to the United States. Hopefully the next Pope will make Catholicism great again.
Sure.
Just like Kennedy, Kerry, Gillibrand, Chavez, Biden, Castro, and the list goes on.
And of course these guys of impeccable character.

Wouldn't you expect that people who are Christians would be more in character of Christ than those?
Or doesn't it matter as long as you can slap a label on someone.
I though you were proud of your apostasy from Catholicism and proud of your new label, "protestant". The new label fits you to a tee.

You folks need to update your list; Pope Francis ranks number 1.
“Non sequitur.”
No, you just don’t understand what I wrote.
If those examples I gave are representative of Catholicism, and they sure seem to be with little or NOT condemnations of them, just the usual deflection and subject changing, then I will wear the label of *heretic* or *apostate* from the Catholic church as a badge of honor.
NO WAY under the sun would I ever think of not condemning that kind of behavior, and yet I see it ALL the time here in FR. The usual thing offered from Catholics is simply excuse making and deflection.
No.
It’s completely relevant.
Well, considering the lists don’t even match, by adding the current man who is called pope, that puts the combined lists to about 15.
And that’s only the ones who were the absolute worst.
It doesn’t address others who were bad but not bad enough to make the list.
Not a very good track record for Catholicism.
Regardless of bad popes, I will be happy to accommodate you with your "labels".
What’s your new religion?
How hold is it? Who founded it?
Who are you leaders; your “good shepherds”; and who of them has not sinned?
Cast not the first stone from your protestant glass house.
Don’t bother with the arguments. You see here invincible Catholic ignorance. Reason has no place, nor Scripture, nor Christ. Only dogma and mouth-foaming hatred of Protestants.
Answer:
Because he approaches the throne of Jesus in Heaven and tells the Lord, ‘You’re in my seat.’
Pope Francis is demonstrably a fraud who serves the likes of Satan
The Catholic Church is, and has been, been invincible.
How about yours; and how old is your cult?
