In comments likely to enhance his progressive reputation, Pope Francis has written a long, open letter to the founder of La Repubblica newspaper, Eugenio Scalfari, stating that non-believers would be forgiven by God if they followed their consciences.

Responding to a list of questions published in the paper by Mr Scalfari, who is not a Roman Catholic, Francis wrote: “You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don’t believe and who don’t seek the faith. I start by saying – and this is the fundamental thing – that God’s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart. The issue for those who do not believe in God is to obey their conscience.

“Sin, even for those who have no faith, exists when people disobey their conscience.”

Robert Mickens, the Vatican correspondent for the Catholic journal The Tablet, said the pontiff’s comments were further evidence of his attempts to shake off the Catholic Church’s fusty image, reinforced by his extremely conservative predecessor Benedict XVI. “Francis is a still a conservative,” said Mr Mickens. “But what this is all about is him seeking to have a more meaningful dialogue with the world.”

The Pope by numbers


In a welcoming response to the letter, Mr Scalfari said the Pope’s comments were “further evidence of his ability and desire to overcome barriers in dialogue with all”.

In July, Francis signalled a more progressive attitude on sexuality, asking: “If someone is gay and is looking for the Lord, who am I to judge him?”

Even d thief believe Jesus before him get ticket

The deluded ones are coming for you OP

The deluded ones are coming for you OP

I am not the Pope.

He can say and do whatever he likes because he knows xtianity is a fake ass scam.

My Bible told me it's only through Jesus You can get to Heaven.. I no me Almajiri wey dey listen to only wetin Dem preach give am.. I read my Bible too..

SATAN IS IN HEAVEN. GOD SENT IT TO JOB. JUDAS ALSO IS IN HEAVEN . JESUS INSTRUCTED HIM(JUDAS) TO HAND HIM(JESUS) OVER FOR CRUCIFIXION. Satan and Judas obeyed God and performed as God wanted. Perhaps it's God's Instructions to that 101 year old Pedophile in Britain to rape young ones.. He follows his Conscience, The Breath of God in him. As for the Atheist, he doesn't have a complete conscience. His, is continually filled w Ith negative life which God doesn't deserve. The God who asks us to honour Him and always respect Him can never instruct the Atheist in his Conscience to disobey Him. And so, when Atheist dies, he goes to other places than Heaven.

It's Time to stop some of Francis inexplicable and/or badly explained thoughts. Love and Honour God and your neighbors. On these principles hang The Laws and The Prophets. And this is fundamental to all Conscience, Atheists no exception.

PATROCINIUM: God breaths Conscience into every human, Pope and Atheist, to enable Him instruct, direct and discern humans at His Pleasure. This means that humans and every spirit in human skin are designed to always obey and serve the Errands and Pleasures of God. Adam&Eve disobeyed God's instructions and in Hell we all remain until God sent His only Son that whoever believes in Him, will not perish but have eternal life. This is The Crossroad for every human, as taught not only by The Bible but also by humans' Experience and Imagination made real. Heaven is a Place of Bliss, where you shine, improve and move in The Sovereignty of God's Faith, Hope, Peace and Love. Hell is the opposite where you face all Adversities without doubt. I have said before that Religion is Imagination made real, not by Francis, Simon Peter but by God who made Adam, Eve and Niphilims in different processes and also came down in Christ Jesus to enable humans see Him, believe and make Heaven by our experience and constant contact in Prayers and Supplications. Does Francis Pray always?

Little by little, the Christian faith will sink into oblivion as their leaders continue to revise & upgrade their self-fabricated laws & lies.

Lol this Is funny... Well they where the once that Compiled the New testament of the Bible so They know better...

If you have watched the documentary on Nostradamus or read his works, you will know who this pope is and what is going on.

So the pope is no longer deluded? You people reach a new low everyday.

Care to give a brief summary about it?

This has been repeated over the past centuries. Even the Beatles said that they would be more popular than Christianity as it would sink into oblivion but Christianity still waxes strong. Christianity will only get more popular my dear. It will be spread to the ends of the earth and then the end will come.

you misunderstood my comment

I dont see it in that excerpt.

You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don’t believe and who don’t seek the faith. I start by saying – and this is the fundamental thing – that God’s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart...

Foolish journalist with an agenda

Undercover investigators reveal shocking truth that Pope Francis is closet Atheist, thats why all attempts to anoint him has failed. Pope Francis cant heal, deliver evil spirits and bless.

He is just a lowly president of Rome.

The Pope should have answered, " I am a FAKE priest/pastor/pope, that why I cant help gays in my church."

Sincere People meet at the Holy Scoan Church Nigeria.
They come from Russia, UK, America, Africa, Britian, France, etc.

The true power of the spirit world is demonstrated in its purest form.
See it happening 24hrs a day, 7 days a week. Here you will also learn why you must not pay for Spiritual healings. It is written : "Freely the gift of healing is given to you, freely it must be given to those that need it".


I have seen everyone with psychological disorders, Cancer, barreness, addictions, spiritual curses and terminal diseases healed very rapidly.
There are too many human problems that science cant cure but they will accept the case anyway and make money out of the suffering. What is the root cause of psychological problems ? Scientist still don’t know. Medical science simply drug you and charge you !

You seem to be a PROMOTER of Emmanuel Tv. The same Emmanuel tv that some of you Christians who dont share same view with criticize.

Abeg, why are the Christians divided within herself and try to antagonise/condemn the Atheist as well?

Somethings just dont add up about Christianity.

I am not a promoter of Emmanuel TV ! If you have experience of Honda as a reliable car, are you a promoter when you pass your experience on?

A car is not just a car ! What happens If you chose the wrong brand ?

So it is with pastors. A pastor is not just a pastor. You get thousands of Fake pastors. Christianity has never been divided, Adepter26.
Fake pastors have created their own phony version of the Holy gospel.

These cruel fake pastors deny their congregation exactly what Jesus commanded all true pastors to go and do, heal the sick, remove the demons, bless the poor etc.

You say, "something dont add up about Christianity" - If there was no fake pastors, if the Jews did not reject the mighty Jesus Christ then every church in the world would experience what thousands of people around the world have experienced because of a true Pastor in Lagos Nigeria.
