The thief on the cross did not go to heaven because he was not baptised and received no holy communion

Ironically, everything Tolkien wrote was ten times more interesting than the religion that inspired him.

If you think something that could potentially save your soul isn't 'interesting', the fault lies with you

He is the leader of the church, catholisism has no boarders, He's just encouraging empathy, Plus the fake news translates what he says to fit their agenda

Catholicism has no borders, true, that's why the catechism says the strength of a border is entirely up to you a country; and beyond the remit of the Church

Remember to tell your priests (if you attend a non-Latin mass) that the Church's chief liturgist has asked them to say mass ad orientem & to whisper the cannon
>The cardinal also reiterated his defence of Mass ad orientem, saying: “This venerable practice is permitted, is perfectly appropriate and, I would insist, is pastorally advantageous in celebrations of the usus recentior—the more modern form of the Roman rite.”
>He suggested that priests may also whisper the canon in the Novus Ordo, as is common in the older rite.
>“The silent praying of the offertory prayers and of the Roman canon might be practices that could enrich the modern rite today. In our world so full of words and more words more silence is what is necessary, even in the liturgy.”
>The pope's power of primacy over all, both pastors and faithful, remains whole and intact. In virtue of his office, that is as Vicar of Christ and pastor of the whole Church, the Roman Pontiff has full, supreme and universal power over the Church. And he is always free to exercise this power. >Lumen Gentium, paragraph 22
>This religious submission of mind and will must be shown in a special way to the authentic magisterium of the Roman Pontiff, even when he is not speaking ex cathedra; that is, it must be shown in such a way that his supreme magisterium is acknowledged with reverence, the judgments made by him are sincerely adhered to, according to his manifest mind and will. His mind and will in the matter may be known either from the character of the documents, from his frequent repetition of the same doctrine, or from his manner of speaking. >Lumen Gentium, paragraph 25

This supposed to be news? The Church is an absolute monarchy. But there have been a lot of Roman Pontiffs. When one/if the current disagrees with a declaration pronounced by a previous Pope, or if it's on an issue which the Catechism admits is beyond the remit of the Roman Pontiff (like immigration), a Catholic can judge for himself
