I really do not believe that the pope is even a believer.
He worships politics, not Christ.

what we have today is a false Pope.

Those “Jesuit rascals” stand against every syllable of the word of Yehova, and every person that believes therein.

They truly are the Synagogue of satan!

>> “To go along with the ignorant, intemperate Vatican assault on traditional Roman Catholicism.” <<

Which is itself an assault on the ancient word of Yehova.

In this case -— think about it -— the Catholics are right and the Vatican (the present clerical bureaucracy) is wrong.

He worships man.

He trusts in the ascension of man.

He believes that Man will inherit the Earth as a perfectible realm.

He loses big!

Those among the “Catholics” that are true believers are right.

No matter how corrupt the Vatican is, no matter how much the pope hates Catholics!—you don’t accomplidh anything by depriving yourself of the sacraments.

Many people have the false notion that money goes from their local parish to the pope. Not a penny does.

Thanks. Remember when Benedict XVI came here and favorably quoted Hawthorne and de Tocqueville?

Common folk all over the world get America and strive to emigrate here, but too many European intellectuals still don’t get what we’re all about.

Thank you!!!

Too bad our youth are not taught the ideas of liberty, so that they are equipped to recognize the ideas of tyranny promoted and practiced by "progressives" today.

“Triumphalist, arrogant and vindictive ethnicism is actually the opposite of Christianity....”

Like islam. But the Church hasn't the courage to challenge a real demon.

I certainly dont hate Catholics, but I do hate the lies and deception which has taken over the Church.

I hate virtually everything about what the hierarchy has been doing for decades. For example, the bishops have been more interested in being Democrats than standing up for unborn babies. They were on the side of the Communists in Central America. They covered up sex abuse. They condemned or ignored the pro-life Rescue Movement. (One great bishop, René Gracida, was the exception.) They are silent as James Martin, SJ, runs around the country promoting sodomy.

Now, one of the worst bishops in the world has been elected pope, and he’s possibly the worst pope of all time.

But no one is going to make me stop receiving the sacraments.
