In A-Z Concerns for example, the Pope is criticized for dismissing Cardinal Muller from his position as Prefect at the end of his term. That is certainly within his legitimate authority, is it not? Furthermore, this blog posted an unverified account of how that dismissal occurred (see Disgraceful Dismissal of Cardinal Muller). That account Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05898252654237646436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528170608960559102.post-74267873267594961222017-07-25T15:53:29.825-04:002017-07-25T15:53:29.825-04:00That "more so than I" parenthetical rema...That "more so than I" parenthetical remark seems to be indicative of your viewpoint. To note these concerns is not to discount any legitimate authority. We are also not called to be obedient to commands that might well be inherently sinful, despite their origin. Ultramontanism is a serious problem with which many are afflicted; you are not alone in that.Restore-DC-Catholicismhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17478857915379063106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528170608960559102.post-88311117694985085692017-07-25T06:50:05.798-04:002017-07-25T06:50:05.798-04:00The current pontiff is the fruit of all that set t...The current pontiff is the fruit of all that set the stage for Vatican Council II and all of the novelty and insanity that has come since. The warnings of Pope Saint Pius X in Pascendi were spot on. That we now find ourselves in the era of the warnings from our Holy Mother is a source of both agony and joy. Agony since we must witness the Church being deconstructed before our eyes. Joy in knowingCapt.

While I certainly acknowledge that Pope Francis is liberal (more so than I), I cannot understand such hostility toward him. He is the Vicar of Christ and we should stop acting as if we are of higher authority than he! It displeases the Lord, who calls us to be obedient to the one whom He gave the power to bind and loose.

The problem, I do believe with most Catholics who are protesting those of us 'sounding the alarm', is that they just can't believe that we are now actually living those prophesies.
