Sign after sign after sign...

Pope St John Paul said that what the Church needs most is saints.

I agree.

 

Pope Paul,Blessed siaid celibacy is the jewel on the Crown of the Church, he got it right too

 

I suppose to some extent it does not matter to us the evil that others do.

What should concern us most is the good that we can do.

That we should become saints

 

holy innocence is not such a bad thing, we look neither left or right but always forward, we stay focused

 

that the sins of others are not our major concern but our own

 

Sounds like Obama and the pope are on the same side. In all of this, left-wing extremism is ok.

 

No. Read my post here: http://motheofgod.com/threads/the-latest-papal-flight-news-conference.9494/page-9#post-141104

When Pope Francis puts some thought into it, he is clearly on our side. It is clear at all times that Obama's feet are burning.

 

I think it's more a case of when the Pope talks to faithful Catholics who aren't afraid to speak the truth in charity (in this case the Polish bishops) he gets the message. If only Popes could be sent on retreat - a spell in Poland would do Pope Francis a world of good.

 

a Pope should not require puppy training

 

He may also feel obliged (perhaps mistakenly), to speak differently to non-believers or maybe even lacks the moral courage to lay it down straight. Alternatively, he may not be mistaken nor weak but this might well be the least ineffective way of making an impression on those not disposed to hear the truth.

 

am I the only one wishes Pope St John Paul 2 was back at the helm?
Who ever doubted him for a second?

Captain Orthodox

Plus he never did press interviews

specially plane ones


...anand never needed the Vatican Press Office to explain thingw

 

I sympathise! Pope Francis is certainly bewildering. Whatever he says or does, Christ Jesus is taking care of business.

 

maybe by folks not doing the three little monkeys or cruising on a fence

 

Hard to tell. He has a tendency to tell people what they want to hear. It's no secret that the Polish bishops are no fans of open Communion. When he visited the US funded hospital in Poland, he presented them with a painting depicting the disciples trying to prevent the sick reaching Jesus. His comments about gender identity came after his meeting with the Polish bishops. I suspect that the comments might have had a different tone had the meeting been with the German bishops. Tim Kaine's reference to "Pope Francis Catholics" tells us all we need to know about the effect his reaching out is having on the wider world. I have a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach that this new study about women deacons is a push to ordain women to a role that falls short of priesthood. That will put wind in the sails of the doctrine changers. It will also prepare us Catholics for the days when local Catholic churches are closed and the faithful given the alternative of attending Lutheran churches with women priests.

Even if his motives are pure as the driven snow, Pope Francis needs to spend more time with Catholics who aren't hell bent on redefining Doctrine. Doing so might be as good as a retreat for him.

Its happened before, and its happening now.

 

The Catholic Church is the Church of Jesus Christ. It can't simultaneously be 'Broken' and 'sound'.

You didn't explain why you infer that Priests are intrinsically unable to control their sexual urges.
