President Biden said that Pope Francis, during their meeting Friday in Vatican City, told him that he should continue to receive communion, amid heightened scrutiny of the Catholic president's pro-abortion policies. The president, following the approximately 90-minute-long meeting, a key part of his trip to Italy for the G20, told reporters details of their discussions.
Biden said that Francis told him that he should keep receiving communion. The president said the pope blessed his rosary, and added that they discussed fighting climate change as part of his Build Back Better agenda.
"We just talked about the fact that he was happy I'm a good Catholic," Biden said.

It matters not what the Pope has to say, if this is true. But, someday, Biden will answer to the only judge that matters and I am sure that judge will not be pleased.

I call BS. I hope that we hear from the Vatican on this. Back when Clinton met with the pope he came out and announced that they had come to an agreement on abortion. The Vatican immediately came out and said that Clinton was lying. But that was when we had a real pope.
I haven’t attended mass in 2 years and if this is actually true, I will never go back.

How can Talibiden be a “good Catholic” when he has and continues to violate at least 9 of the 10 Commnadments? The only one still in question is - honor thy father and thy mother.

Not that I believe what BiteMe reports but the Bible is crystal clear. 1 Corinthians 11:27 - For he that eats and drinks unworthily, eats and drinks damnation to himself. If Biden has truly repented and confessed his sins then what he does and says going forward shall show the fruit of that 'conversion'.

ole joe must think that Catholics are stupid! IF the pope told biden to receive communion he probably told him to get his rear-end to confession first and to stop supporting abortion first! Only people that will believe that biden got the OK from Frank are his supporters, all 81 million of them who are rolling over in their graves. #2 why would you stop attending mass because of frankie. Your at mass because you believe in the Eucharist, not the pope! I am not a fan of this pope, but, he has never changed any of the laws and teachings of the Church. but he sure is a socialist, thru and thru

We all violate all the commandments daily! That is why the Law only shows us our Sin! The Gospel is then applied freely to lead man to repent and accept the free gift of Christ. I don’t know what Biden believes but aThe Creator does!

The way wokesterism has seeped into the governance of the Church has eroded my confidence in the Vatican's commitment to opposing the relaxing of restrictions on abortion. So Biden's claim of papal affirmation could have some truth to it.
But in the traditional discipline of the Church, their meeting falls under the Internal Forum, which is just one level of confidentiality lower than the Seal of Confession. Biden's free to claim whatever suits him about what was said, just as Pelosi was free to blab about what she wanted everybody to think she and her Archbishop discussed after she publicly misstated what the Church teaches on the issue (and then argued with Bishops who corrected her).

I highly doubt Biden's account of this meeting. More than likely the pope said something like, "Do not present yourself for Holy Communion unless you are in the state of grace"; and Biden doesn't know what that "is" any longer, because he's been "out of it" for so long....

Nope poster 4 - you pray in secret to the father. The pope is clearly a heretic. Better to pray privately than stand in ceremony.
I was raised Catholic, attended Catholic school. The church like many if our institutions rotted from the inside out.
If Catholics want mass, go on line and find one and listen. Don't attend and don't give them money.

The timing of this announcement is meant as a warning for our bishops. In a few weeks the USCCB will have their November meeting, voting on the abortion teaching document submitted by Archbishop Cordileone last June. Over the summer the committee on life and human dignity has been very busy. My own Bishop Vasa is a member of this committee and he regularly preaches against abortion from the pulpit; directly addressing the issue after advising parents with small children to leave the sanctuary for 15 minutes. In June the vote to formulate the final document was something like 188 to 55. The "liberal" bishops are a very small minority. I believe the conservative majority is not going to welcome the threats from Frank. They will stand for Life.
Jesus warned us that His Bride, the Church, would be defiled by evil even as Judas was arranging the payoff for betrayal. He warned Peter of his impending thrice denial and Simon still lied to save his skin. Yet, Christ entrusted the Sacrifice of the Mass to weak and mortal men, fully knowing many would fall into Satan's snares in the centuries until His Second Coming. All of those betrayals and defilements are powerless against His Presence in The Eucharist. Our God so loved us that He daily offers us His Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity to feed and give us strength to fight the good fight - even against our own clergy.
My favorite all-time priest is a convert from Judaism. His proof for the Truth of Catholicism was that The Faith has been passed on for two thousand years by the laity, despite the clergy. Do not forsake Mass because of the political difficulties of the time we just happen to be living. Our times are no different than any in the past. The important thing is to unite our sufferings with Christ on the Cross and to remain faithful to His Holy Sacraments. As they say on EWTN: Live Truth, Live Catholic.

Hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren"

#23, above, provides an ardent defense for NEVER leaving the Roman Catholic Church. If you reject that defense, I humbly suggest you are missing something very important in your catachesis. Every word is rich with meaning and deserves to be fully 'unpacked' and understood.
If you can't do it by yourself, find a GOOD priest (there are plenty) and work with him to understand it. We are talking about eternity here. It might be worth it.
In the meantime, I continue to pray for you.
PS: I offer this with all humility and an understanding that I don't necessarily have it all "figured out". We are all on this trip together and my hope is that we can all benefit from some guidance along the way. Just trying to help.

Catholicism represents only about a half of Christians worldwide, and a good portion of those non-Catholic Christians do not go to "mass" but to their own brand of Saturday/Sunday services.
Then there are Christians that, for various reasons, do not attend regular services. I leave the idea that they have "abandoned Jesus" up to them and Jesus, who knows their hearts better than me. (As He also knows the hearts of those who regularly do attend mass/church services.)

Speaking as a Catholic, if the Pope actually told Biden to keep receiving communion while being for abortion, HE should be impeached. But I frankly dankly think even this screwy Pope would say that. E.G. another Biden lie, figuring nobody will get to the Pope to confirm or deny.

#42~ Likewise, this commentary is offered “with all humility and an understanding that” mortal man errs, but forgiveness is Divine.
As #63 posted, “Catholicism represents” a portion of Christians worldwide. It is written that “since apostolic times visible Christendom has been divided” due to historical, cultural and sociological factors contributing to the departure from truth revealed to us by God in the Holy Scriptures being the principal cause for such division. “Scriptures are the inerrant source and norm of all doctrine.” God’s Truth. Scripture alone has the authority to determine doctrine; the office of the papacy as such does not have divine authority or that Christians need to submit to the Pope’s authority to be ‘true’ members of the visible church.”
Trinitarian churches are Christian churches; “personal salvation is not merely a matter of external membership in or association with any church organization or denomination, but comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone. ... All those who confess Jesus Christ as Savior are recognized as ‘Christians’ ... only God can look into a person’s heart and see whether that person really believes. It is possible to have true and sincere faith in Jesus Christ even while having wrong or incomplete beliefs about other doctrinal issues.”
Most Trinitarian churches offer the Eucharist in some form; some as “thanksgiving” in remembrance of the Last Supper—as a memorial, rather than a sacrifice. For Scripture-based conservative Trinitarian churches, the Lord’s Supper “is a precious gift of God in which Christ gives us His true body and blood (in a miraculous way), together with the bread and wine, for the forgiveness of our sins and the strengthening of our faith.” Participation in the Lord’s Supper “is an act of confession of faith.” This Sacrament “may be spiritually harmful if misused.” (1 Corinthians 11:20-34)
Many members of Trinitarian churches consider members of the Roman Catholic Church “fellow Christians.”

What the OP said. Biden makes up stuff. And no the Vatican is not likely to issue a correction. This is very close to seal of the confessional stuff. Priests cannot correct what someone has said happened in confession. People lie about that all the time, and they are defenseless. That is the actual reason for those confessionals built like little houses - it was to put some kind of limit on the fantasies people could pass off. Anyway, the reason I don't think this is possible is that this is for Biden's bishop, and the fantasy that the Pope is above all that, is an ignorant one. For most purposes every bishop is Pope in his own diocese.

It would be very surprising if the Vatican commented on what was said to FJB. So, ole lyin' Joe can say anything he wants, putting words in the Pope's mouth. That said, I am not a fan of this Pope. It would have been very interesting to see how Pope Benedict would have handled this situation. But, the same global cabal that is trying to destroy President Trump, did in Benedict. I believe they made him an offer he couldn't refuse and he had to step down. He is still alive and in better health than JP II was. So why did he step down? Evil does walk the earth.

Au Contraire, #4. The church and the many popes it has had are all human and by nature not infallible. We have had corrupt popes in our history and Frank is not looking all that good to me either. Jesus can always be trusted.
Biden is a hypocrite, murderer, thief, adulterer, guilty of pride and lying and is addicted to the almighty dollar. His affinity for little girls also proves that he has mommy issues and has no respect for women. A real pope would have given him a good lecture and kicked him out.

If you can't get the devil on speed dial (please hold president paedophile, your call is important to us) , the see see pee imposter is the next best thing to being there. not.
Our Saviour, Jesus the Christ, instituted our Church, the Sacrifice of the Mass and all the Sacraments -''Do this in Memory of Me''
Our Mass is the daily Living Sacrament; His Presence is ever amongst us in the Tabernacle.
We are unique in that way--often imitated, never duplicated.
Our Saviour has redeemed us all from sin and heresy; these current blasphemies shall be righted in God's good time and order.
So be it!
