There is a series of videos from the 1960s which were brought to my attention. They were presented by Fr. Joseph Dunn and made by a production company called Radharc which he founded. They came to me by way of Fr. John Zuhlsdorf and to him by way of an Irish poster.
It isn't an emphasis. It is simple non-Christianity. We've been worrying that Pope Francis isn't Catholic. The Bear must wonder if he is even Christian.

The Bergoglio juggernaut never seems to stop rolling, it is. Today we have him encouraging the young to sin by telling us them that God prefers them sinful and weak, so that he can show his mercy.

I suppose there is still the possibility that somebody framed him by just making this up.
