" "

His teaching (of Pope Francis) is as iridescent as Saruman's dress. I am thrilled by his evangelical freedom, his simplicity, his be outside the clerical mold. It is emotional when he talks about the gaze of Jesus or, as in recent days in Guadalupe, the maternal eyes of Mary. And when we remember that our Savior does not want to lose anyone and takes each of us on his shoulders.

Additional quotes by Antonio Socci

I pray for him (Pope Francis) as a Catholic, but for a living I have to rely on evidence. Just reread the interviews he gives, it's an extremely painful, dramatic situation. Saying that God is not Catholic means wanting a super religion purified of dogmas and sacraments, it's a shame that the monotheistic horizon thus understood then impacts the Trinitarian belief. And it's a big problem. Islam maintains that God does not have a son.

Agnostics or atheists or secularists who listen to Bergoglio feel confirmed in their non-belief and certainly not called to conversion. Indeed, these characters (Scalfari is an example) draw from Bergoglio's words new conviction in their hostility towards the Church, hearing themselves justified by the Pope himself... While the Catholics who listen to Bergoglio increasingly conform to dominant secularist culture. Bergoglio's "mission" is therefore in reverse: bringing the Lord's sheep into the mouths of the wolves, that is, worldly Power.
