Francis Wanted To Dissuade Anglican Bishop From Converting

Francis made efforts to dissuade Anglican Lay-Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali, 72, from converting to Catholicism, claims ChurchMilitant.com’ Jules Gomes.

Gomes quotes an anonymous Anglican cleric from Argentina saying that “first, Nazir-Ali isn't the kind of convert we are looking for under the Francis pontificate; second, such a high-profile conversion is a setback to ecumenism; third, Francis seems to have always indicated he believes in the validity of Anglican orders" (as Francis is known for his heterodoxy).

Nazir-Ali, a father of two sons, converted on September 29 and will be ordained a priest on October 30 by the anti-Catholic Westminster Cardinal Vincent Nichols.

Can anyone not realize we are in the "Post-Christian" or "Anti-Christ" era, as Pope Francis continues to participate with non-Christian religious & world leaders in creating a secular "utopia on Earth" rather than being concerned with saving souls in preparation for the supernatural afterlife.

One religion is just as good as any other in Pope Francis' mind.

Lay-Bishop ? There is no such thing in Asia.

Anglicans are no bishops but lay-men. Leo XIII decreed that all "ordinations" in the Anglican Church are null and void. Like Protestants.

"Nazir-Ali isn't the kind of convert we are looking for under the Francis pontificate" -raising the question what kind of convert is? -what a damning indictment of the Francis pontificate that any sincere convert to The Church should be discouraged.

Since it appears Francis has abandoned the teachings, I can see how he may have actively worked to prevent others from jumping into a boat he planned to set aflame.

Damian Thompson: "Truly shocking claim, which I believe to be true, that Pope Francis didn’t want Dr Nazir-Ali to convert."
