Absolutely a fraud! He positively doesn't know the scripture. How is that possible....it's not.

He knows the scripture, he chooses to change it. He has made multliple statements that are wrong, and he is way too political He needs to be replaced.

He sure has made a lot of misstatements. Oddly, none of them are talked about on Sundays and there's no record of them on the Vatican site.

It's almost as if the same media who's dividing the country and world found another divisive character with with to drive division. Conveniently, he doesn't speak English which makes it far easier to have him say whatever it is they want him to have said.

Sure, he's said some unpopular things. This ain't one of them. It's fake news. But now more people hate him and the Catholic Church. So I guess the article did its job.

I'm not catholic as well but you got your wires crossed on that definition. That's for communion, not the resurrection.

I see what you're saying. So, I reread the article at the link. In the report it quotes the Vatican and Pope rep as "not not denying" the Pope said it. There was no larification or correcting the translation.

They made a Saint out of a Pope that covered up child molestation for 21 years during his reign!

quote:
a long-time friend of Pope Francis and frequent papal interviewer, claims that the Pope told him that Jesus Christ did not rise bodily from the dead but "in the semblance of a spirit."

1) This could be a fake news event.
2) It is possible the pope considered this was how the Resurrection occurred, but no longer agrees with it.
3) The pope may think this, but does not teach it; therefore, he is not scandalizing anyone.
4) The pope is allowed to have private conversations with others about his faith, even areas of doubt. He can remain catholic. If he starts teaching these doubts to others, then he is in danger of being excommunicated.
One can have doubts, struggles, and droughts in their faith, but they should get a spiritual director to help them through these times. This alone is not grounds for excommunication like Biden.
The church does allow catholics to go through times of confusion and remain catholic. If they begin to teach their confusing ways which would scandalize others, then they would be in danger of being excommunicated.

A person can believe abortion is permitted and remain catholic. A person can not teach that to others, nor can they encourage or take a person to have an abortion. They can have their internal confusion and discuss with others if their desire is to learn. They can not publicly boast to others that they are catholic and pro-abortion(killing unborn babies). They can not vote to allow people to have abortions. Every abortion that occurs due to their vote has the blood of an innocent victim on their soul.
Biden publicly votes to permit killing babies in the womb. This is murder. Biden has already excommunicated himself from the church. He will remain in this state until he confesses to a bishop who is the only one who can welcome him back into the church.
