So, Catholics you got a way to get a Pope that's ACTUALLY a Catholic and not a leftist mouth piece or does that require another division like what led to protestantism?
Pope Francis is Catholic. He just doesn't say the things that today's politics-obsessed people want to hear. Not unlike Jesus, I might add.
Granted, he does say things that sometimes confuse the flock, but all claims of heresy that I've bothered to actually go into end up as misinterpretations of out-of-context quotes.
If you are the leader of a group of people, and you constantly confuse the fuck out of them by being unclear or flipfloppy on long standing issues then you are pretty bad at your job.
Also, him speaking about the WEF and globalization at all is him being more politically involved than his flock ever could be.
The faithful do have frustrations about the Pope, but he's not "flipfloppy". He hasn't said anything actually wrong. People misquote him and make inflammatory headlines.
By the way, globalization can mean different things. Higher interconnectedness of the markets is good for everyone. Don't trust headlines blindly.
I actually went and did just the tiniest bit of research on just one of his positions, just because you are right that headline reading is bad.
He has flipflopped on how much he condemns just the LGBT thing and what he totally meant multiple times. From its bad, to its a sin, to its a sin but not a crime, and on and on. So yes he is flipfloppy seemingly entirely to please people instead of having a solid principle on it. I'm gonna guess you could probably do the same for many of his positions as well.
Also, its the WEF. Their idea of globalization is pretty well known and they aren't shy about explaining it. So trying the "he could mean anything!" defense shows you have no argument other than bad faith bullshit.
