I realize bad news related to Pope Francis has, at this point, become wearying. We don’t cover every single uncharitable act or confusing statement made by Francis. Yet it is important to periodically note that, like some popes before him, this pope is not a good man, much less a good pope. As we near the end of Lent, let us offer prayers and penances for Holy Mother Church, and pray that she be blessed with a good and holy pope, or even a decent one, very soon.

Half the Catholics in this country vote abortion party
A small percentage of the rest practice their faith they don’t go to mass regularly they don’t realize it’s a mortal sin to skip mass on Sunday
They don’t care that Sunday is a day of worship and rest. They shop and work on Sunday
They don’t think about heaven, judgement, hell.
They practice birth control
They cohabitate with their pretend spouses
The whole western world is like this
Why demand a good pope. They don’t care about what a pope says
Or does

Obviously, calling him "Holy Father" as in in the title is part of the problem.
Power corrupts. Including papal power.

First, no human should be called “Holy Father”.

Full blown commumist apostate.
We’re not supposed to wish death on others, but I don’t GAF at this point.
This utter POS just needs to go die already.

Have You No Decency, Holy Father?

I’ll never understand why Catholics call this heretic Holy Father.
Matthew 23:9
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Nor will I understand why they are part of a religion based on papal heresies.

As bad as that man is, we’re still supposed to pray for him … and clearly he needs a LOT of prayers!
It’s not so much what he does, but what we each do according to God’s Will and instructions.
I know that I don’t love my enemies the way that Jesus loves them and I don’t pray for those in high places the way I’m supposed to do … sometimes I do, but not very much when I do. And that’s on me, not them.
Not good, because all of the things I’ve read says His Return is imminent. Ready or not …

Bergoglio is not, nor has he ever been, a legitimate pope. Perhaps some of you will remember the truly baffling situation where Pope Benedict "resigned", yet still claimed to be fulfilling some duties of the office, when Bergoglio (aka the anti-pope Francis) was selected to "replace" him. Well, that was not a legitimate resignation, and therefore Benedict was still the Pope, and many, many learned Catholics have been screaming this from the rooftops for years now, but it is like screaming that the 2020 election was stolen.
If anyone wonders how a pope can say such heretical and anti-biblical things, it is because he is an anti-pope, deliberately put there to try to destroy the Church. Meanwhile, many Protestants squeal with glee as their own denominations fall to heresy and blasphemy.
If you're interested, there is a lot of research and explanation here:

Ah, you said you wouldn’t pray for this Pope. I’m glad you reconsidered.

Holy Father?
About as “holy” as the Qur’an is a “holy” book.
