The catholic church has lots of issues they need to work on, The largest of which is child sexual abuse. Another story broke about the Church in Pennsylvania that hundreds perhaps thousands of kids were sexually abused by priests and the church actively covered it up. The catholic church, over the decades, has allowed men (both gay and straight) to target young boys and girls for sex.
This pope only adds weight to a collapsing institution. The Church that Paul started has been corrupt and has allowed it to happen. They have installed a pope who is at odds with the church he is supposed to be leading.
I am not a catholic, I am a protestant. I don't say this happily but the catholic church has turned into an apostate church like a number others. They have done so because they have turned their back on confronting sin in their leadership.

I left the Catholic Church when I was a freshman in college, too many issues with it then and now. Been a Protestant ever since.
Since this latest, has he disarmed his Swiss guards, I doubt it.

My general idea is there are good people in the corpus of the church and a lot of turds that floated up. What's interesting is how the church has changed in history in response to things like islam and protestantism. I've seen it mirroring s lot of bad ideas. I wonder if it's absorbing things to feel relevant. My analysis isn't complete because the study isn't complete.

LOL...the catholic church is the issue. She is the whore dressed in purple and scarlet on the beast drunk with the blood of the saints. I pity the millions she has misled by twisting scripture.

Great write-up Shaun. Placed into power by the commies or Satan, it's all the same. It's more than evil the crimes the roman catholic church has and still is committing. I pray her followers will read and understand Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: “Come out of her, my people, so that you may not have fellowship in her sins, and so that you may not receive of her plagues.

Good share Shaun. This Pope is definitely not on my list of favorites. I think he is too political. I try and keep my religious views out of my political views but he is making it pretty hard and making me take a good look at if Catholicism is the correct religion for me.
