Mysterium Fidei

Early on in Mr. Bergoglio's fake "pontificate" he made it very clear that he despises the idea of "proselytism"; that is, trying to convert others to Catholicism by means of arguments about the truth of the Catholic Faith.
In the past he has stated that proselytism is "solemn nonsense" or is a "great sin against ecumenism."
Recently Bergoglio clarified exactly what kind of "great sin" attempting to convert someone to the Catholic Church is. He gave a "catechetical" lecture in which he stated: "Do not forget this: when you see Christians proselytizing, making a list of people to come... these are not Christians; they are pagans disguised as Christians, but the heart is pagan."
Bergoglio also just said in an interview with a Spanish-language publication Mundo Negro, conducted on Dec. 15, 2022, that proselytism is "the worst sin a missionary could possibly commit!"
Imagine, Bergoglio believes that trying to convert someone to Catholicism is the WORST SIN a MISSIONARY could possibly commit. It's worse than murder, abortion, pedophilia, or even the denial of God (something Bergoglio has experience at).
So the Catholic can junk their apologetics collection according to the fake "pope." The writings of the saints and doctors, of learned priests, bishops, and cardinals over two millennia, none of that matters anymore. The “Popes” since Vatican II know that evangelization must appeal entirely on the emotion and not at all to the intellect. After all, Faith is not an assent of the mind but an “encounter" according to Bergoglio.
