Even the left-wing, secular press is picking up on Francis's betrayal of the Catholic Faithful in China!
From Gloria.tv
China has shown a proclivity to renege on agreements, and the Vatican is now grappling with this, TheAtlantic.com writes (December 4).
The Vatican sold its September agreement with China as a deal that would promote “unity” dismissing concerns that it constituted “selling out” to a Communist government.
But then last month, Monsignor Shao Zhumin, the bishop of Wenzhou who remains unrecognised by Beijing, disappeared. For TheAtlantic.com this is a sign that Beijing won’t ease its pressure on the Church but will instead use the deal to push for even more control.
Sophie Richardson, the China director of Human Rights Watch which is financed by Western Oligarchs, said,
“The pope has effectively given [the Chinese president] Xi Jinping a stamp of approval when the latter’s hostility to religious freedom couldn’t be clearer.”

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
