Is best shown in this article by Esquire<\/a>. \u00a0Note the final paragraph. \u00a0They know the wicked hearts and souls of those Catholics opposing Francis. \u00a0And note, the Cardinals (that would be those who voted for Francis) are against him, too. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because they don\u2019t care about the Gospel. Or Jesus. \u00a0Or Children. \u00a0Or sunsets. \u00a0Or anything. \u00a0They love the Church because it is the evil, wicked institution that liberals have always said it is. <\/p>\n

But now Francis is here to save the world! \u00a0He\u2019s ready to change the Church and make it conform to the true saving gospel of Liberalism. \u00a0This is the strength of liberalism. It is a religion. \u00a0And it judges brutally and mercilessly those who don\u2019t conform. \u00a0And yet, nobody recognize it as such. \u00a0And those who conform to the faith of liberalism see Francis \u2013 rightly or wrongly \u2013 as one of theirs. \u00a0He may not change the teachings of the Church. \u00a0But he will make it so that the sins of liberalism are no longer an issue. <\/p>\n

The sins of those who fail to conform to liberalism? \u00a0That is what Francis has launched his crusade against. \u00a0And while Esquire knows that those conservatives have no interest in a year of mercy (again, knowing and judging the wicked and evil hearts of those who haven\u2019t converted to the Liberal faith), one wonders where Capitalists, Fundamentalists and Traditionalists will figure into the Year of Mercy as Pope Francis lives it out. \u00a0Who knows? \u00a0He may embrace them with love and mercy as well. \u00a0But it is something I wonder.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
