Benny is full of contradictions....and he's alive! I thought he'd be dead a long time ago..soon after he resigned infact..but he's still hanging in there being a spectator whilst everything is going to pot...I'd hate to be in his shoes when he finally snuffs it

It is a shame these post conciliar popes were not around 2000 years ago. They could have corrected St. Peter and St. James and saved them a lot of trouble.

How does Benedict XVI explain the planned "Conversion of St. Paul" at Damascus? The famous conversion of the Jew Alphonsus Ratisbone by Our Lady and Her Miraculous Medal in 1842? Or the powerful passage on the "Road to Emmaus"...."Oh you foolish men...so slow to believe....."

Mark 16:15 English Standard Version (ESV). 15 And he said to them, "Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.

@Beacon don’t bother trying to comprehend anything. Your head will explode.

Ah yes, the "conservative" Pope who re-wrote the Prayer for the Conversion of the Jews to make it less offensive....as if the salvation of souls is "offensive."

It seems to me that nuchurch doesn't see the need to evangelize anyone.

Don"t believe this. This is as manipulated as manipulated was the presentation of Benedict's purposed hidden paragraphs letter to force us to think he is in line with Apostate Bergoglio.

How many Jews will go to hell because Benedict et. al. don't believe they need to be Catholic in order to be saved? Woe to them

 

Own comment: 

I am willing to entertain the notion that evangelising gentiles is "not necessary". It's obviously false, and there is much in Scripture that tells us the opposite, but it is an almost defensible position, given that the world is so large and that many have never heard of the Word of Christ, and so on.

Perhaps the absolutely most stupidly non-sensical notion in NOChurch, however, is that conversion of the Jews is "not necessary", as we are told Benedict has recently said, and actually probably not for the first time.

The mission of Christ was to the Jews, as was the mission of most of the Apostles, and all the apostles initially. Christ Himself mentions its necessity several times, as does St. Peter, and as does St. Paul. It is virtually the most indefensible of all novelties of NOChurch.

It shows us just how diabolically disoriented NOChurch is if the best pope it has produced holds to that idiotic and heretical notion. It ought to be proof to anyone paying attention that there is no Catholicism to be found in NOChurch, and any that remains is in spite of, and not thanks to, NOChurch and its various ecumenical and inter-religious anti-Catholic initiatives.
