I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Galatians 1:6
"Pope Francis received Taiwanese Buddhists at the Vatican. After
praising the sacred values and principles of Buddhism, Francis invoked
the name of Buddha, asking that He guide the monks into a closer
relationship with everyone, including the planet. The Pope’s heretical
action elevates Buddha to the status of a spiritual leader on par with
Jesus Christ. Pope Francis expressed the following words to the Buddhist
delegation:
“Your visit, which you have termed an educational
pilgrimage, represents a privileged occasion for advancing the culture
of encounter … For as we experience others in their diversity, we are encouraged to move outside of ourselves and to accept and embrace our differences.”
“The culture of encounter builds bridges and opens windows to the sacred values and convictions that inspire others. It tears down the walls that divide people and keep them prisoners of preconceptions, prejudices or indifference.”
“Dear friends, it is my hope that this educational pilgrimage will lead you, guided
by the thoughts of your spiritual teacher Buddha, to a deeper encounter
with yourselves and with others, with the Christian tradition, and with
the beauty of the earth, our common home.”
This is a mixture of ecumenism and
reverence for nature and false gods.
As a result, the uniqueness of the Christian faith and witness is
diminished, and the false notion that Christianity and all other
religions, including Mother Earth worship, are equal and valid is
propagated."
