Pope Francis is upending catholic tradition once again, and many of his followers aren’t happy.
Pope Francis was selected to lead the Catholic church in 2013, after several years of scandal-prone leadership from his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI. But it wasn’t long until Francis began stirring controversy himself.
Unlike his predecessor — who was often characterized as “too conservative” — Francis immediately began liberalizing the Catholic faith. He suggested that his followers apologize to gay people and validated the beliefs of competing religions, claiming that all religions worship the same god. Then, in perhaps the most bizarre development of last year, the pontiff began an unprompted feud with Donald Trump over immigration policy.
So it should come as no surprise that Pope Francis is once again upsetting many of his diehard followers with an announcement that seems to go against fundamental Catholic values.

I am telling u something wrong with this guy
Only God through Jesus can forgive sins
A Priest cannot purchase your forgiveness from God that is exactly why Christ was born bled died and rose again to be the propitiation for our sins
Faith in Jesus and confessing to Him our sins and accepting Jesus as Savior and Lord secures the only forgiveness for our sins and our Salvation that there is
A Priest can’t save you or forgive you of your sins only Jesus can do that If you allow Him to
Answer a question for me my Catholic friends, as I know very little if the Catholic Churches teaching. Does the Catholic Church follow the Ten Commandments as their doctrine?
What’s next: murder will become a misdemeanor?
From my understanding they do not believe in the rapture or tribulation or preach it they are all about ritual like cults more or less and to call a priest Father there is only one Father our Father God Almighty, like my Catholic friend said when she was a kid it was a mortal sin to go to church without head covered, then it was no longer necessary and she said she realized it was a man made laws and rules and not of Christ
Along with the post below, Tom Haes, this Pope was Blackmailed in not selected and Approved….whatever that process entails. So I guess it’s safe to say, he’s not a true Pope……
Thank you Tom!
Jesus is all you need you need no man to intercede for you to God.
John 14:6King James Version (KJV)
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Ummmm your pray to Jesus, he forgives, not priests. The power of God and heaven comes from above, not here as much in earthly institutes. Why I am a reformed Catholic.
What part of the bible gave him the right!……I have read and never seen his title!
