Tell Pope Francis to leave the Our Father alone!

LifeSiteNews is combining forces with the Ruth Institute on a petition of monumental significance for all Catholics...literally, the Word of God.
As you may have heard, Pope Francis recently changed the Italian translation of the words of the Lord’s Prayer. And now, there are reports that he is considering changing the English translation as well. [See links below]
This petition, therefore, politely, but firmly, asks the Holy Father to allow the status quo to remain as is with the Our Father.
The proposed change is from the familiar, “Lead us not into temptation,” to “do not abandon us to temptation.”
Dutch Biblical scholar Fr. Reto Nay explains that this new translation is not true to the original text: 
"The text of the Our Father is passed down to us in the New Testament, which was written in ancient Greek. The phrase "and lead us not into temptation" is contained both in Mt 6:13 and Lk 11:4 with identical wording. … This means that the wording of the prayer cannot be blamed on a transmission error or misunderstanding."
Continuous repetition of the basic prayers has embedded these words deeply into our psyches. The effort required to undo those familiar words will disrupt our pattern of prayer, and cause confusion among the faithful.

Unfortunately, changing a few words in the Our Father is not even a drop in the bucket.  Now a petition asking Francis to resign so we can possibly get a real, Catholic pope ... that I could get behind.

... and still, where would we find a Cardinal elector who would be a real Catholic?

Pope Francis needs to be run out of there along with his sodomite devil worshipping buddies.

Someone on another forum said the following;
Yeah…that’s why I was so confused when the English version was on the process of being changed, while it changed already years ago in other languages.
We also had a new liturgical translation of the Bible, which our immediate family came into contact after we converted. We like it better than the Protestant Korean version.
@OddBird 네, 만나서 반갑습니다. 주님의 축복이 항상 있기를 빕니다.
 (Yes, it’s nice to meet you! May the Lord’s blessing be with you, always.)
