I received this as part of an email circular that I belong to and am sharing it with permission.

While I do not agree with the e-mail’s author that “...the Catholic Church is the world’s largest liberal Protestant denomination.” Pope Francis has been on a secularization of the Catholic Church to turn it into the Roman version of the American Episcopal Church, in which our traditional Christian teachings are being perverted.

No, we need to stay more Catholic.

“I am convinced he is talking about nothing less than a de-catholicization and with it a de-Christianization of Catholicism—victory of the progressives of Vatican II”.

I am Catholic, and I agree with the author 100%. Except that Francis actually wants to make it the world’s largest Unitarian denomination.

If I were a Catholic, I would have difficulty finding words to express my outrage at the poisonous influence of Pope Francis.

Antipope Bergoglio is the false-prophet forerunner of the Antichrist.

“Protestant” is not the only alternative to “Roman Catholic.”

The Anglican Church of today is, except for the lack of Latin, the same as the Roman Catholic church I attended until about age 20.

I am a life-long Orthodox Christian, and beyond the obvious agreement that it is very clear about Pope Francis’ divisiveness, I will mention one interesting detail. My whole life, my Roman Catholic friends have always said, “You Orthodox are so much like us that I wish we could all just finally reunite after so many centuries.” Now that Francis is Pope, I don’t get that anymore, just veiled complaints about the direction of their own church. I think the self-confidence of Roman Catholics has been shaken to the core.
