Free Republic Under the pope

I’m sure this post won’t stay up long But as a born-again evangelical I no longer feel comfortable on this site. It has become openly and aggressively pro Catholic. Catholicism is heresy.
Thank you Jim for putting so much effort into this clearinghouse of ideas But the bombardment of papers nonsense can a longer be tolerated by me.
God bless all who proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord. God bless America

this clearinghouse of ideas
Do you have the God-given brain power to realize a free exchange of ideas might include ideas you don't agree with?
Are you that small-minded and conceited?
It would appear so.

I’m not quite sure what you mean. As a Catholic, I criticize the current Pope as a Marxist interloper. Perhaps your argument is purely theological in nature. I’m happy to see Protestants of all stripes posting here and take no offense at their content.

You know you can avoid all religious postings by setting your preferences to News?

What a strange thread!
I don’t think I’ve seen a single thread in 6 years on FR that was approving of this Marxist pope.
Bizarre...

I will help you out. I think Catholics are making a huge mistake staying with the belief given the leadership of the church in the past few years.
I don't know of anyone that is "aggressively pro Catholic" here. If they're i will challenge their faith with basic logic on why they shouldn't.

’ll be sure to say a Rosary for you that your time in Purgatory be short and that the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Heaven, and all the angels and Saints pray for you. Maybe I’ll ask Father to offer a Mass for you too. Farewell! :)

Wow
You do know the Catholic Church is the oldest Christian sect in the world? You do know that the Catholic means “Universal”.
Don’t be a such a prig of a Protestant. Before you know it, you will go all in and become Mormon....
BTW, I’m a Baptist.

Good grief. Just manually select the news, bloggers and general chat forums and you’ll never see the religion forum thread titles.

Common mistake which is made by a great many Catholics as well.
The Leadership of the Church is not monolithic and does not represent the Church.
The Church is the entire body of Christ and exist through the centuries regardless of the leadership of the Church.

Does this mean the mods will now be offering confession?
I posted something in Extended News a while back that should have gone into General Chat.
Whew, I feel better getting that off my chest.

DON’T YOU PEOPLE GET IT??!?!
IT’S NOT THE CURRENT POPE HE’S TALKING ABOUT.
It’s OUR religion.
Don’t try to reason.
He’d have us crucified if he could for saying the Rosary and don’t think that’s an exaggeration.
The only thing he was Born Again into was hate.
And this thread is a bad thing and should be gone.

None of what you said is true.
We don't agree with your dogma, but we don't hate you,...you hate us. We, out of brotherly love are trying to get you to read your Bibles.
I've quoted Scriptures all day that contradict what you believe and the RCC comes back with what some pope wrote in the 1200's.
Yes we disagree with your pope, but we disagree with all popes. John Paul was a nice man but was wrong in his beliefs. Revelation 18:4 tells you to come out of her before you suffer as an unbeliever will suffer.
How many times have you been told you worship idols and you refuse to admit what is obvious to the whole world? Worshiping Mary is an idol, Statues are graven images. Relics are idols. Worshiping dead men and women is idol worship.
Jesus is the only Mediator between God and men.
Mary had many sons and was a sinner like all of us.
The cracker and wine doesn't magically turn into the body and blood of Jesus, it's symbolic.
There are no mentions of any popes, nuns, or cardinals in Scripture. When Jesus said on the rock I will build my church, He was talking about Peter knowing Jesus was the Son of God because only the Holy Spirit can reveal that to you. All through Scripture, even the Old Testament, a rock was Jesus and you say this one time the rock was a man.
BTW, James, the brother of Jesus, ran the church when Jesus ascended and that's easily checked out.
You will say a man is God in the Last Days as the Antichrist appears and the RCC will embrace him, because you thing Revelation happened in 70 AD and deny it's a prophesy for the future as Rev 1:3 tells you.
The church at Thyatira speaks of the RCC in Rev 2:18. The sexual immorality it speaks of is the idol worship you do.
Eating food sacrificed to idols speak of the Eucharist.
Doctrines of demons is forbidding to marry.
You've killed more saints that all other religions put together.The list is long.
When we see a billion people going the wrong way, we care enough to say something to try to wake you from your slumber.
If I have the time, I will post every answer I can, but I have to have a life also.
I'm thinking the RCC may destroy itself with sodomy and maybe real believers will abandon a sinking ship, but many just say "My daddy was a Catholic, my granddaddy was a Catholic, and my great granddaddy was a Catholic, and by God my boy's gonna be a Catholic. The curse may last 7 generations.

What does the "bombardment of papers" mean? What is he referring to? Perhaps he's just a troll?

Hey revelation , I have commented on Catholic postings and not favorably either .....but that is my view and I was not ostracized or verbally scolded . But the reality remains that by some means RC's seem to have achieved a type of protected status on FR, and thus are able to incessantly pope articles promoting an elitist one true church, which historically damned those who dissent from it, and at the least, today teaches that Prot churches are unworthy of the proper title "church."
RC posters can not only post provocative articles defending distinctive Catholic teachings (that are not manifest in the only wholly inspired substantive authoritative record of what the NT church believed), but also can post many articles attacking the beliefs of evangelicals. However, if the latter practice the same them they risk being pulled or banned, as in the past. However, to be fair, that was a result of some Prot freepers going overboard in posting articles of reproofs on Catholicism, yet certain RCs seem to have taken that as freedom to post their articles promoting their one true church but not allowing articles against that presumption.
While an expressed policy of FR is that of being pro-God, the "only true Judeo- Christian God as taught to us by KJV with no additional editing or books of fiction," and pro-America, and protecting our religious freedom, etc. and that no false gospel shall be taught here as Truth, and the fellow promoters of a "one true church" (FR Mormon) were censored , yet Catholics are free to promote a church with a false gospel of salvation by merit, of actually becoming good enough to be with God thru sacraments and Purgatory. As documented .
Thus those who would post articles critical of that presumption should have the same freedom as those who promote it.
Now in the interest of the broader issues of conservatism versus liberals, then evangelicals (as the most conservative major religious body in the West ) find an ally in the remnant of conservative traditional Catholics. And thus the owner has exhorted , "Catholics, Protestants, Evangelicals, Jews, etc, are not the enemy. ALL conservative pro-life, pro-family pro-America believers in our one true Judeo-Christian God are our guests, friends and allies in this effort, so please don't attack your allies!" However, attacks are usually in response to articles that promote a one true church, and thus provoke responses, and certain RCs oppose the freedom to criticize their faith (as they define it), and seem to long for a Catholic monarchy that would silence them. As in the past. Which is not pro-America, and pro-freedom.

You don’t speak for me, I do not deny the trinity, I do deny the books that were included for a while for their historical context, but Jesus and the disciples made no mention of them.
* The RC church also green lit the Rwanda genocide more recently.*
I’ll stick with Jesus and pray to him. He’s my intercessory and my redeemer and my savior. No praying to dead people for me or other garbage.

“Specifically, we have reason to believe that a Vatican … ‘regime change’ --- was engineered by the Obama administration,” say the petitioners, in their January 20 letter to President Trump.
