68. Pope Francis Interview with 60 Minutes

That Francis’s comments contradict the clear teachings of Scripture do not seem controversial, as they clearly do.

Thank you for your labor in the Kingdom
We are Protestant and members of a small Presbyterian denomination. One of our children has entered the Dominican novitiate. We heard about this podcast on Reformed Forum and very grateful for your work. On a personal level it is helping navigate a significant event.
Fundamentalism tries to critique Rome
While listening to the episodes about the Holy Mother I noticed our hosts accused Roman church and the church fathers of circular reasoning, yet they produced little evidence of their own. It can simply be reduced to “We’re right just because, and Roman Catholicism is wrong because we said so.”
One question I have is this, what are the bounds of scripture? That’s a very arbitrary standard since their particular brand of Protestantism.
Their view of Mary is not representative of Protestantism. It represents a very recent enlightenment influenced view of Mary. In short, this is pretend scholarly work and class anti-Catholicism.
Need more episodes!!
I love this podcast! It’s very informative and encouraging to me as a former Roman Catholic. You don’t mince words but you’re sensitive at the same time knowing that spreading the Gospel in a dark place is priority. My only critique is that you need more episodes LOL! I check it almost every day awaiting the next one.I recently purchased “Same Words, Different Worlds” and look forward to reading it!
