So do liberals love the pope now?

He speaks their language and beats from the same drum. Of course they will use whatever they can grab onto while reaching for straws.

But us life long Catholics, what are we supposed to do with this?

Seek your spiritual guidance from the Heavenly Father and not from a mortal man from Argentina.

But this pope shakes the faith of those who have been catholic for 40-50 years

Meh.

My faith was broken at 15, and then it was rewarded back to me at 18.

Pope had nothing to do with it.

Accept Christ as your savior and not rely on some useless, pompous phony. Then spread the gospel of Christ to others.

So I gather you are an alter after looking at start date and all PT posts.

And now you start a Religious thread

Who are you?

To follow the word of his Son, Jesus Christ.

The Son part is correct, but JC is not his name.

I’m telling you, I am not an alter.

Ha! No.

Not for me to understand. I don't do Catholic.

But if I was and there is a pope not acting properly on behalf of the vast majority, and is playing loose with the Catholic teachings because he wants to promote his social and political views, then I would become outspoken and not feel obligated in any manner supporting that pope.
