Even the Catholic sites are decrying the movements of this Pope...

I'm not Catholic so some of the nuances of the issues with this Pope are lost on me but just a quick perusal of the comments to the story let me know that Francis is indeed leading the world to spiritualism/globalism
He is the first Jesuit elected to the post if I recall. As for the ecumenism movement he's heading, I'd agree. I thought that was made pretty clear when he allowed Muslims to perform the Azan in the Vatican and while facing east turning their back on Christ.
As they do in their faith.

I know quite a few Catholics. None of them feel secure with this Pope. One even joined a Catholic forum and found other members there were asking her same questions about his motives. She's even to the point of questioning her own faith.

From your posted article: ""The pope’s embrace of one of the major figures of liberation theology in Mexico follows his eyebrow-raising acceptance of Marxist symbols mixed with the figure of Christ in July 2015..."

I hadn't heard of that.

It is a wait and see for Catholics. Though this could indeed be following prophecy. I'd suggest we use caution in discussing this publicly.

MUch ado about nothing. The Catholic Church has long had a "preferential option for the poor" which has it endorse on one hand some socialist policies (although on the other hand it also endorses other conservative policies). However, it is certainly not communist, certainly not into spiritualism, and certainly not into globalism. Your source leaves out important details such as the fact that Pope Francis quietly states "This is not okay" when he was given the communist crucifix.

Nonsense.

On many levels.

What has he said that was "dishonest"?
1. Well for starters the whole climate change idea is a HOAX being promoted by the globalists. Yet he promotes it at every opportunity.

2. Claiming that the god of Islam is the same as the LORD God Almighty is another dishonest claim. If he does not even understand this fundamental difference, why is he parading around the world as the leader of the Catholics? The Crusaders are probably rolling over in their graves.

I guess you get the picture. But this list could be extended by you if you would simply analyze everything he has been saying since his appointment. Catholics should stand up and speak out against this unfit leader of Catholicism.

You give Francis too much credit for deviousness. He is simply what he was before he was elected Pope, which is to say a Left-wing political activist. Only now he has a bigger stage and, because of its nature, he has to cast every radical proclamation he makes in pseudo-religious terms.

In his encyclical, Laudato Si, Francis floats the idea that Sunday rest, centered in the Eucharist, is the solution for nature and the poor.

236.
...Thus, the Eucharist is also a source of light and motivation for our concerns for the environment, directing us to be stewards of all creation.

237.
On Sunday, our participation in the Eucharist has special importance. Sunday, like the Jewish Sabbath, is meant to be a day which heals our relationships with God, with ourselves, with others and with the world... Rest opens our eyes to the larger picture and gives us renewed sensitivity to the rights of others. And so the day of rest, centred on the Eucharist, sheds it light on the whole week, and motivates us to greater concern for nature and the poor.

The plan is to use this "climate change" idea to institute a day of rest "for the benefit of the earth and the poor".

He is a Jesuit. Nothing he does is for any other reason than to finish the counter reformation and bring all back under Rome's influence. Have you ever read the Jesuit oath? They are not what they appear to be.....

I see you've dropped the invoking of Obama from this claim.

I think that's a different part of his commitment, however. Promoting Marxist economics, for example, isn't likely to bring all churches back under Rome's control.
