    I hope that a new phase may open up in China, that will help to heal the wounds of the past, restore and maintain full communiion with all Chinese Catholics, and take up the proclamation of the Gospel with renewed commitment. http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/messages/pont-messages/2018/documents/papa-francesco_20180926_messaggio-cattolici-cinesi.html …

        Dear Antipope Francis, no one believes you any longer. You know the Communist, atheistic Government of China does forced abortion but that does not seem to matter to you. I wonder why? You are a squatter in the Vatican. GET OUT!pic.twitter.com/ESim4W9brI

        The pope is reaching out to support the suffering Christians in China. He has always been defending the sacredness of live from the beginning to the end.

        By siding with a regime that locks up believers and burns down churches, how creative!

        You can go on changing the outer for lives & you will never be satisfied. Unless the inner changes, the outer can never be perfect. Inner change comes by understanding the life in extreme detail & practicing positive thoughts on daily basis🕯️ #PositiveAttitude #lifelessons

        We have got it easy compared with Christians in China. If I was there on Good Friday would I have shouted 'Crucify Him"? For some it is difficult to stand up in Europe. We pray for Chinese Catholics and we pray that we too irrespective of our situation will stand up for Christ.

        #ChinaMeToo Even if they'd threatened to nuke the Vatican & execute every Catholic they could find - there is NO justification for what you've done.

        What you've done is expose the underground church. The Chinese will take note then persecute all. They will either do what the Chinese government says or suffer the consequences. You've done nothing positive.
