Not all of them. And at least we have a method t remove bad leaders. We are not religiously obligated to call our president “Christ on earth” and other blasphemous titles

To: Mom MD
You will be pleased to learn that normal Catholics do not believe the blasphemies offered by Pope Francis' minions like Sicluna, Rosica and Spadaro. They really are poapolators, but curiously, only as this extravagant hyperbole is focused on Francis and not on his more Catholic predecessors.

I think they so fulsomely praise Francis, no because he is Catholic or the pope, but because they hope he will be the gravedigger of Catholicism.

We recognizcze when heretial insolence raises its head. It has certainly done so in this truly weird pontificate.

But the larger and deeper conviction -- so often robustly stated by St. Paul --- that we are living in Christ, and Christ living in us, rightly understood, is not heretical. Are you not aliving member of Christ on earth?

Can you not say, with Paul, "I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me"?
