    • An interesting link to a quiz a friend of mine sent to me:

    http://www.syracuse.com/opinion/index.ssf/2013/12/is_pope_francis_a_marxist.html

    I find it interesting because my friend is a rabid anti-sedevacantist.  I got 9 of 11 quotations correct.

    • I got 7 right, and I have never read any Karl Marx. With a few tweaks of the contemporary idioms, his and Francis' quotes could be almost identical.

    If you've read one Marxist, you've read 'em all.

    "This principle is most certain: The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope. The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member. Now, he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, St. Augustine, St. Jerome, and others. Therefore, the manifest heretic cannot be Pope." -- St. Robert Bellarmine
