Francis' Legacy - Leftist Betrayal of Tradition and Religious Fre

The passing of Pope Francis prompts an examination of his legacy and what it portends for Catholics and other Christians. An illustrative facet was his diplomacy with the Chinese Communist Party.

Since 2018, Francis has approved four deals with Xi Jinping’s regime. While they remain secret, their effects have been unmistakable. In short, they legitimized the CCP’s increasing domination, mutation and in some cases destruction of Catholic churches, icons, texts and doctrine. 

As part of their “Sinicization” of Christianity, the Chinese Communists have also increasingly made Xi the object of worship, appointed his bishops, barred children from attending mass, and harshly punished those who seek to continue practicing their faith in so-called underground churches.

Typical of Frances’ political proclivities, his legacy in China will be one of a radical leftist makeover of the Catholic Church at the expense of tradition and religious freedom.
