"The number of Roman Catholics in Latin America, a historical stronghold, dropped to 67 percent in 2013, from 80 percent in 1995, a survey by Chile-based pollster Latinobarometro showed on Wednesday". --Is Pope Francis as popular with the general public as some polls claim he is?  I seriously doubt it.  Have you ever heard of 'The Big Lie'?  It's a concept first created by the notorious Roman Catholic mass murderer Adolf Hitler, and it works like this; take something that is a lie (like evolution or September 11 for example) and declare it to be true over and over and over again until people start to believe it.  Eventually it'll become accepted as truth by the majority and they can move on from there.  So it shouldn't be much of a surprise to you when the media keeps declaring Pope Francis to be one of the most beloved men in the world and most people start to believe it and start to admire him too.  This all besides the fact he is a Jesuit who took the oath that is quite bloodcurdling to say the least. (See the "red" paragraph!) Obedient Christians won't fall prey to this trap because we are known to stand firm in the Word daily, but we all have friends and loved ones who might.  So show them this story and ask them this question; if the first Latin American pope in history is as great as the media portrays him to be, how come even his fellow Latin Americans have continued to abandon the Roman Catholic Church in droves in the year since this Jesuit Pope was elected?  Prophecy declares the world will wonder after the beast yes, and almost all will receive his mark but prophecy also says a few obedient souls will resist. Some, even unto death.  That being saidm, there's still time for your loved ones to accept the truth. But it doesn't seem like there's a lot of time left for them to make this decision, so do your part and help spread the Loud Cry.

"Among the rash of sensationalist stories we can expect through the season, the annual "Easter was stolen from the pagans" refrain has sprouted again just in time for Holy Week.  Don't believe the hype".  --Since this story came from CNN, I knew before I read it they were going to lie and claim that Easter was not stolen from paganism.  They did just as expected, but then again what would you expect from the Catholic News Network, especially knowing this ministry exposed them for trying to justify the fraudulent Catholic Sabbath by changing their calendars to proclaim Sunday is the seventh day of the week a few months ago.  As for the rest of the article, who cares?  If you do bother to read it all the way through, take note at the end there's a paragraph about the author.  It says she wrote the "Myth of Persecution", which I'll never read, and is a professor of New Testament and early Christianity at the Roman Catholic University of Notre Dame.  There are people in this church with young children who have a better grasp of truth than this so-called professor!  If writing terrible editorials for CNN is her evening job, she better not quit her day job... no wait, actually she should quit her day job for the sake of her unfortunate students at Notre Dame.
