Disgusting. I don't try to ruin your culture (or lack thereof). Go back to your fear mongering. Let us be.

What exactly is my "culture" then? My background is about 50% Lutheran, 25% Catholic and 25% Baptist. And I'm not atypical amongst Americans, as I've said before, most Americans (at least whites) don't fit into neat little ethnic boxes.

And of course it's not common for one to actually convert from Catholicism to Protestantism,what usually seems to happen is falling out with Catholicism and then converting to Protestantism a bit later. But far earlier in life than any Pope would be.

But it's all hypothetical, so I echo the statements.

No one, I would like to see the papal institution abolished.

Wow, Audrey Assad does not look like she'd be Catholic at all. She looks like a character in a Lena Dunham work! As stereotypical of a nerdy hipster girl as possible.

After reading a bit about Suenens it sounds like he was simply far more liberal than the church at the time or now. So like someone who a liberal Christian would be promoting as a model for what the church should be like, not someone like JCL. Surprising.

Who's going to turn Catholic in the US? The US is far too polarized between SJW liberals and conservative evangelicals.


People should only follow Jesus Christ. Not a man.

Ok then, don't "follow" your pastor or minister. Stop going to those services. Who cares what he says? He is a man. He isn't Jesus Christ. Therefore, you shouldn't "follow" him.

None of the pastors at my church, (for which a majority are women by the way) claim to be God's infallible representative on Earth. In fact they've even done joint teaching or round-table discussion sermons where they've admitted to having different views on some things...and that that's OK and that we do not need to agree with everything they preach either.

Now I think this Pope isn't a bad guy, in fact I even like his Twitter feed. But he is just a man, like me.
