The Church over the Abyss

In a recent interview with the Neapolitan newspaper Il Mattino, Pope Francis offered an expansive prescription for the human race. “Planetary injustice,” centered around climate change and Third World debt, must be the focus of the Church, he explained, adding that politics is the “highest form of charity.” Saying that “everything is connected,” the Pope sounded like he was channeling the latest New Age woo-woo philosophy—which in a sense, he is. The Catholic church was once the greatest conservative institution in the West, and not in any narrow sense of the term. In her self-understanding she was the guardian of the apostolic inheritance, the natural moral law, and an understanding

I'm Catholic and Pope Francis lost me at "Hello" back 2012...he seems much more comfortable being around the Castro's, Chavezes, and other commie dictators than around his Catholic brethren...so Pope Francis can pontificate and I will choose not to listen

No offense, but the Roman Catholic Church is not "The Church". The Church is like a mansion with many rooms and the RC Church is but one of them.

He would never have been Pope unless there was a majority of cardinals that voted for him after those same cardinals had convinced Benedict it was time to leave "or else". Make of it what you will.

The Catholic Church has survived heresies, schisms, multiple popes, the Borgia popes and the Reformation. We will survive the Argentinian. Jesus Christ founded His Church with the promise that the gates of Hell would not prevail against her. He did not promise that that smoke of Satan would not infiltrate. My favorite all-time priest, a convert from Judaism, once said his proof of the truth of Catholicism was that the Faith endured because of the laity despite the clergy. There is the earthly church and there is the Holy Catholic Church in which the effect of the Sacraments are real and lasting; the greatest of which is the Eucharist, the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ made available to us through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and kept reserved for Adoration within His golden tabernacle in every Catholic Church. It matters not who occupies the Chair of Peter, or who holds a bishops staff, the reality of the Eucharist is not affected. The reality of any of the other Sacraments; Baptism, Confirmation, Reconciliation (confession), Matrimony, Holy Orders, Anointing of the Sick (Last Rites) are not affected by earthly corruption of any prelate. Christ knew He was entrusting His Church to fallible men and that is why the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles and the Blessed Mother in the upper room on Pentecost Sunday. Satan may take some consecrated souls, but he will not take His Holy Bride, the Church. Be faithful until the end. Keep your lamp filled with oil. Be ready when the Bridegroom comes. AMDG

"The Church", the bride of Christ, has nothing to do with "the pope", whoever that may be. They are political heads, and have been for well over 1000 years. They are the 'whited sepulchers'. The spiritual head of the Church is the holy spirit. Francis never met that entity. He is an arm and voice of . . . well, it ain't God.

The Protestant Reformation identified, in 5 principles, the necessary doctrines of a true Christian faith, to keep the church from drifting into error: Sola Scriptura - Scripture ALONE is the place to find ultimate truth (with other sources subservient to Scripture). No papal edicts or any human-inspired rule trump Scripture. Sola Gracia - Grace ALONE, granted mercifully by God, is to only route to having peace with God. The forgiveness granted by a human priest is not sufficient. Sola Fide - Faith ALONE is the only way to have the righteousness of Christ - the ONLY righteousness acceptable to God - imputed to man. No works of man, or prayers to dead "saints", can replace faith as our righteousness before God. Sola Christus - Christ ALONE is the only mediator between God and man. No Mary; no saint; no pope; no confessional. Soli Deo' Gloria - To the Glory of God ALONE. God will not share His Glory due to Him with any creature, or creaturely organization.

As a Roman Catholic, I say God bless #14 and all Protestants. One little problem I have with Sola Scriptura is: it's not in the Bible. The Doctrine of Sola Scriptura is not in the Scriptures. Think about that. As to Christ being the only mediator between God and man, Jesus was certainly the only one who was both God and man. But was Moses a mediator between God and man? I'm not a religious expert, and I do welcome intelligent answers to that question.

Religion in the West is largely a figment, an industry that churns money for everything from "the poor" to the Reverend's new luxury sedan. Protestant and Catholic, no difference in the way the sanctimonious game of true belief is played. The Roman Catholic church claims a level of universality that no other Christian church can. It is, by modern definition, a Big Tent. It needs to be to accommodate "believers". in the US and Europe that means taking a humanist rather than spiritual view, and to practice "flexibility." Dogma is squishy. And it really doesn't sell well in an "enlightened" society pursuing spirituality. Catholics aren't the only Christian squishes, either. It appears that fewer Americans identify with religion than ever before, particularly Christianity. Cafeteria-style faith is the reaction of churches to relate. It fails. It fails in its trappings and its presentation of faith and dogma. Pope Francis, like Joel Osteen and others, is just playing to the crowd to keep his "ratings" up and the money flowing for "good works." His reaction to the incarceration of Bishop Rolando Álvarez and the agreement with the Chinese regarding the elevation of bishops is appalling...and entirely in keeping with his "faith."

#17 - Thank you for your response. Even though the words SCRIPTURE ONLY is not in the Bible, there are plenty of references that indicate this truth: "All Scripture is breathed out by God" - 2 Timothy 3:16; "And we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone’s own interpretation. For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God las they were carried along by the Holy Spirit". - 2 Peter 1:19-21; Jesus referred to the Scriptures, not oral tradition, being the only source of authority in texts such as Matthew 4:1-11, Matthew 12: 3, 5, 42. Paul, instructing the Corinthians, not to go beyond Scripture, says: "I have applied all these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, brothers, that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up in favor of one against another." Don't go beyond "WHAT IS WRITTEN". As for Moses being a mediator, he was a type of the mediator to come, Jesus Christ. "Now Moses was faithful in all God’s house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, but Christ is faithful over God’s house as a son." Hebrews 3:5; "For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time."1 Timothy 2:5-6 I hope this wasn't too lengthy a response, but your questions deserved clear answers. Blessings!

I was born in 1955 and raised in a Catholic family. As a 10-13 year old, I recognized that something was seriously wrong in the mid-to-late 1960's when the radical leftist 'Berrigan Brothers' priests joined the pro-Communist protests and suffered no punishment from the church administration. Up to that time, I had believed that the Church was working for God, and the Communists were Evil. As time went on, I became more and more dis-enamored by all the bureaucratic nonsense spouted by the church. The phrase "Apostolic Administrator" sticks in my memory to this day. When the pedophile priests scandals started coming to light, one after another, after another, and I realized that this was not an individual 'rotten apple' here and there, but that the church administration, instead of kicking these monsters out, was instead hiding these monsters, shielding them from public view, and moving them from places where they had been exposed to unspoiled parishes where they could (and did) continue to prey on innocent children with decent, unsuspecting parents..... I knew it was time to walk away. These days, with the corrupting, pervert-supporting actions of today's pope, and the activities of the 'Catholic Charities' organization which is apparently doing a lucrative business contracting with the Biden administration in trafficking illegal aliens who have entered the US, I believe that I made the right choice. Although a very long way from perfect myself, with a range of faults and failings, I cannot support the organization that the catholic church has become. They claim to be The Moral Authority, but they seems now to be more a force for evil than for good. Tempering this is that, in my limited contact and experience, there seem to be a good percentage of parish priests who are good, decent people, trying to do good..... but it seems to me that the 'hierarchy', the bureaucracy, is badly rotted. Today I consider myself a Christian..... but a catholic? It seems that the church has left me, and left the values that it held when I was young.

I was taught that "The Church" was All Christians - regardless of denomination. I'm Missouri Synod Lutheran and I believe that ALL Christians are "The Church on Earth." . I look to Holy Scripture - Sola Scriptura. My brothers and sisters in Christ belong to many church denominations and we all are The Church.

The midterms’ winners and losers —

The midterm elections proved captivating as one followed races district by district throughout the night. The true winners and losers, however, go beyond the individual officeholders. Legally, there are both individuals and institutions that could see significant changes with the new division of power in Washington. While the White House was reportedly “giddy and gleeful” with the results, Democrats likely lost the House and could still lose the Senate. Despite the rivaling predictions of red waves and blue walls, the night showed what was always abundantly clear: We are still a deeply divided country. Congress will reflect that division in terms of power distribution — and that

What, if anything, did the midterms tell us about the country -- other than underwhelming Republicans could still take the House and Senate? During the COVID-19 lockdowns, American elections radically changed to mail-in and early voting. They did so in a wild variety of state-by-state ways. Add ranked voting and a required majority margin to the mess and the result is that once cherished Election Day balloting becomes increasingly irrelevant. Election Night also no longer exists. Returns are not counted for days. It is intolerable for a modern democracy to wait and wait for all sorts of different ballots both cast and counted under radically different and sometimes dubious conditions.

Over the last few months the four icons of the Democratic Party—Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Nancy Pelosi—have hit the campaign trail. They’ve weighed in on everything from “right-wing violence” and “election denialists” to the now tired “un-American” semi-fascist MAGA voter—and had nothing much to say about inflation, the border, crime, energy, or the Afghanistan debacle. In this, they remind us just how impoverished and calcified is this left-wing pantheon. So why should we take anything they say seriously, given their own records—and especially given their mastery of projecting their own shortcomings upon others as some sort of private exculpation or preemptive political strategy?

What is driving the defection of working, middle-class voters—who make up the majority of the electorate—from the Democratic Party? The answer: Democrats' priorities are substantially out-of-touch with this group specifically, and with those of the largely populist American electorate generally. These are the findings of a new national survey. The poll, which measured the core values and beliefs of 900 likely midterm election voters, found that nearly 70 percent of the electorate embraces a populist outlook, either fully or partially, which is grounded in a desire for politicians to focus on the most immediate barriers to individual advancement. These voters are most concerned with skyrocketing prices, the looming recession

Historian Michael Beschloss’s warning on MSNBC — speculating that “our children will be arrested and conceivably killed” if Republicans win control of Congress — summed up the final pitch by President Biden and fellow Democrats ahead of Tuesday’s midterm elections. Apparently, it is not gas prices, the economy or crime that once again are the top polling issues for voters. Instead, it is democracy or death, gas or grandchildren — you choose. Biden returned to this theme in what White House chief of staff Ron Klain called his “final warning” to voters.

Conservatives ridiculed President Joe Biden’s "despicable" Wednesday speech in which he warned midterm voters of the threats to democracy ahead of election day. During his last address before the balance of power would be decided in Washington D.C., Biden pleaded with Americans to vote against Republicans, accusing them of being election deniers and MAGA extremists who have encouraged political violence, promoted former President Donald Trump’s "Big Lie" about the 2020 election and engaged in voter intimidation. Rather than focusing the on main issues voters are most concerned about, namely, rampant inflation and other economic woes, Biden’s speech pointed the finger at his political opponents.

That meant essentially that most of Dr. Mehmet Oz’s votes had been counted and allowed the Associated Press to call the race early Wednesday for Fetterman. At times early in the cycle, it seemed Fetterman would run away with the election after handily defeating his primary opponents, but Oz tightened the race, attacking Fetterman as soft on crime and relentlessly questioning whether his Democratic counterpart was fit to serve after he suffered a stroke in May.

Not so much. It also rarely makes much of a difference, because committing massive fraud is difficult, requires the cooperation of significant numbers of people to pull off, and when it matters a lot the lawyers get involved. I think it happens a lot more than Democrats are willing to admit, but I also think it affects the outcomes of elections a lot fewer times than many Republicans suppose. It is a marginal
