>>8711408Yeah, I understand where you're coming from, this is a really confusing world especially when the Vatican isn't doing the mission that they are supposed to. But that doesn't make religion any less right or Catholicism/Orthodoxy any less true. Go to Sensus Fidelium on YouTube and listen to what (traditional) Catholic priests preach about, it will inspire your soul, brother. And there's this new channel called "How To Be Christian" on YouTube that does very basic Catholic apologetics, I think it's a good starting point. Sure, Pope Francis is indeed a chastisement, just the other day he signed the Abu Dhabi declaration saying that all religions are brothers, it's hard to imagine that this guy isn't feeling the fires from Hell burning sole of his feet. But Catholicism bore splendid fruits through the ages and was graced with many beautiful miracles like the painting of Our Lady of Guadalupe or the Shroud of Turin that was given to the protection of the Church or all the bones of the Apostles (except St. John's). It is still, however, a Church built by sinners in need of a Saviour, and the Lord only knows how much mercy some of these Popes need. Please be weary of protestant sensationalism, it's the single most propagandised against Church in the entire Christian world, that alone should compel you to consider exactly why the devil is so fiercely opposed to it.
Much love to you, brother, and may the Good Lord guide you through your journey.
