Pope Francis criticised at the January 2 general audience daily mass-goers who - unsurprisingly - nevertheless remain sinners. Francis himself is a daily mass-goer.
He said (Italian video below): "People who go to church every day and then hate others and talk badly about them are a scandal: better living as an atheist rather than giving a counter-witness of being Christian."
Francis has a habit of insulting others. Atheism is the ultimate sin against God.
Francis further implied that the sacrifice of Mass is unnecessary: "Our God doesn't require sacrifices to win his favour. Our God needs nothing. In our prayer, he asks only that we keep a channel of communication open."
If God "needs nothing" why would he ask us "to keep a channel of communication open"?

What a ridiculous, ignorant statement to make from the mouth of a "pope!" Blathering heresies. It is time for you Francis to learn your Catholic faith. Start with the Roman Catechism. The holy sacrifice of the mass is the same as our Lord's crucification and death. This act of love made heaven accessible for mankind.

Given that he said God would not exist without man, Frank has chosen what he sees as the better part for him: atheism. He is a Communist.

Unrepentant adulterers are welcome but Gossipers are not.

Francis in 2014: “If you do not feel in need of God’s mercy, if you do not feel you are a sinner, then it’s better not go to Mass”

He can go to black mass.

"Better not to go to Church" Another Thing no Pope has said before Francis.

Even Justin Welby doesn't usually manage to sound this Protestant.

It's better to go to Church. The greater the sinner the greater the need. Remember that "hospital for sinners" thing Francis said?

Ahhhhhhh. Starting to worry kind of a lot.
How can you in one phrase.....

-Mentioning mass, sacrifice and unnecessary in one sentence? One thing is what you say, the next thing is what they hear and interpret.
-God needs nothing? Isn't that islam?

Sounds like a a false prophet.
