New Survey: Should the Pope be Catholic?






















New Survey: Should the Pope be Catholic?

I guess the real question is: would a Catholic kiss the Koran, a book which describes Christians as worse than swine urine and that gives liberty to kill Christians who do not deny Christ and accept Islam? Is a Catholic one who receives a blessing from a Hindu priestess in the form of dried cow dung? Is a Catholic one who would allow pagans from all over the world to occupy Holy Churches in Assisi and practice idolatry in theses Churches?

Isn’t a Catholic instead more like our Holy Martyr, St. Peter, who would not compromise his faith at the hands of the Pagan Roman? Isn’t a Catholic one instead who would leave the comfort of his homeland, give up his life for Christ to convert the Native peoples of Canada, like St. Jean de Brebeuf and St. Isaac Jogues, who died a martyr’s death? Isn’t a Catholic more like the many more martyrs who died for their faith in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union ?
