Such was the gist of his "intervention" this past Wednesday. To complete the heretical slop, he also stated that contraception within marriage should be liberalized "to make more room for conscience". In other words, the clear teachings of Jesus Christ are to be subordinated to the demands of warped consciences. I saw this news on Church Militant's site and left the following comment. It is self-explanatory, but knowing CM's reluctance to criticize the doings and sayings of Pope Francis, here's hoping that the comment remains and that they start acknowledging the proverbial "elephant in the living room". The comment is "If Marx is allowed to remain in his various Church-related roles after this proposal of immorality and heresy, we need to acknowledge that Pope Francis approves of Marx's antics and perhaps even is applauding them. Let us cease this fear of stating these simple truths, shall we?"
Meanwhile, the bishops from Poland and Africa are having nothing to do with Marx's antics. Toronto Catholic Witness relates that Archbishop Gadecki refutes the idea of "being pastoral" and he has spoken in the name of all the Polish bishops. Michael Hichborn of Lepanto Institute asks why such matters of settled doctrine are even being discussed and then answers the question; they are being discussed because Marx et al want to unsettle these doctrines.
We've had de facto schism for some time now. This sin-nod may well formalize that reality.
Be ever thankful that we have faithful Bishops to defend the Bride of Christ. They are doing a marvelous job so far, as there is NO QUESTION where their faith lies and they are making that well known. I am upset, however, at Cdl. Pell's response to the petition from the faithful laity to WALK if they hit complete roadblocks. He somehow feels satisfied that there will be no rigging to the votes from our Bishops. The wolves are guarding the hen house and there will be no rigging??? PLEASE!!! I know that our God is a God of miracles, but somehow, don't see one coming, sadly. Oh and Pope Francis, evidently has 'washed his hands' of this mess, stating that 'he is only a Bishop among Bishops.' How convenient for him to state that he has no control over the situation, after all, he is only ONE BISHOP. The infuriating part of all this is that they either think we are all too stupid to see the forest through the trees, or...........THEY JUST DON'T CARE IF WE DO OR NOT.
