    Boy, if it was that easy, you would have thought the Popes long ago would have done it. No offense to any Cathoholics here, but your current Pope sure makes me glad I am Lutheran!
    He is a disgrace, and he points the way towards The False Prophet. Pope John Paul II changed my heart towards Catholics, because he showed himself to be a good Christian. The contrast is sharp and distinct between those two; and I am saying that as an evangelical Christian.
    “He had been all things, and all was of little value.” Said of Severus Emperor of Rome.

    (As quoted by Gibbons, in Decline of the Roman Empire.)

    Wait... Guys... He took it all back...
    Vatican says interview in which Pope doubts Hell not a ‘faithful transcript’
    https://cruxnow.com/vatican/2018/03/...ul-transcript/

    Vatican spokesman Greg Burke on Thursday issued a now-customary distancing statement, describing the conversation as a “private meeting, without releasing any interview,” and Scalfari’s front-page article on Thursday quoting Francis at length as “the fruit of his own reconstruction,” in which the pope’s words “are not cited textually,” and warning that it “should not be considered as a faithful transcript of the Holy Father’s words.”

    This is the fifth time Francis has sat down with Scalfari since the pontiff’s election in 2013, and on those previous occasions, the Vatican has said something similar after Scalfari published a major account of their conversation.

    On the existence of Hell, Scalfari described himself asking Francis what happens to the souls of sinners, and specifically, where they are punished. He then quoted the pope as follows:

    “They’re not punished. Those who repent obtain forgiveness and enter the ranks of those who contemplate him, but those who don’t repent and can’t be forgiven disappear. A Hell doesn’t exist, what exists is the disappearance of sinning souls.”

    For the record, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the official compendium of Catholic teaching, upholds the existence of Hell:

    He has also been trying to bridge Islam and Christianity. I have heard it called Chrislam. Yep, he was working on that awhile ago.

    I just can't believe Catholics don't de-pope this guy.
    I swear he reminds me of the Pope in the Left Behind book series.

    Unfortunately, BlackDog, . . . it's one of those things that is "out of our hands".

    The below notes are copied from a Catholic website that answers Canon law as understood by Catholics.

    May God bless,

    We get to have our pets in heaven and no worries of hell. What's not to like?? But in all seriousness, you shouldn't have to be threatened to do the right thing.
