Gloria.TV News on the 26th of November 2014

No Flattering: Yesterday Pope Francis addressed the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, an advisory body with little political importance. Francis quoted the Italian poet, Clemente Rebora without saying that he was a priest. Further he criticized Europe: “Today we are presented with the image of a Europe which is hurt, not only by its many past ordeals, but also by present-day crises which it no longer seems capable of facing with its former vitality and energy; a Europe which is a bit tired and pessimistic, which feels besieged by events and winds of change coming from other continents.” Gloria.tv suspects, that the state of Europe corresponds to the state of the present Church.

The Best: The Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School in west London has been declared the best comprehensive in Great Britain by the Sunday Times newspaper, followed by two Jewish schools. It is one of three Catholic schools in top ten, with Colima Convent Girls school in Croydon at number six and St John the Baptist School in Woking in seventh place. Only one of the top seven schools is secular. The Vaughan teaches 950 pupils, is oversubscribed eight times over and gives priority to “fully practising Catholic families”.

Clueless Bishop: Archbishop Franz Lackner from Salzburg, the city of Mozart, said in front of the Austrian state TV: “We have forgotten that Jesus was a layman.” Already in March 2014 Lackner imbarrassed his audience by saying the same about Jesus, the Eternal High Priest.

Orthodox Patriarch on Divorce: During a meeting with participants in an Orthodox Youth Congress held in Moscow Russian Patriarch Kirill said he is horrified by the number of divorces in Russia. Already in September 2011, Kirill told couples in Lugansk that "people who marry for a second time are not insured against another divorce." In opposition to the Gospel the Orthodox Church accepts divorce and re-marriage.

Does the sending of those paragraphs equal a change in Church teaching or a summary of everything that was discussed - have you never heard of transparency which is what Pope Francis has given us. Image how much wilder the conjecture would have been - especially here - if he didn't. Regardless of who voted for which paragraph, Church teaching won.

"If you negate the facts that each human being has a free will, including the Pope, and that inside the Church there are traitors, like Judas was, you will always be under a misconception in your imagination that a human Pope can never fall into error/heresy."

If YOU negate the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Church and treat all councils and synods as only a human activity then you will be under a misconception that all a human pope can do is fall into error and heresy. I prefer my position because it leaves room for God to work through every human activity. It's interesting that you mention free will. Our human nature as images of God is flawed due to our tendency to sin, however God's grace still works through us and co-operates with our free will - that doesn't mean that every decision of the Church will be perfect but it does mean that God will continue to guide the Church to truth because of the overwhelming prevalence of the sacraments and the synod father's participation in them. Otherwise you have to admit that God is not present in the Church or that he is only present with a few such as yourself who self proclaim to be bearers of the truth.

The Pope being praised by LGBT communities and celebrities and leftist media etc is not an indication of Pope Francis' failures. Just as the same groups' criticisms of Benedict XVI are not indications of his failures either. Groups who are outside of the daily life of Christianity will always react to the news they hear without any background in theology or even scripture - that's no surprise.

"Roman-catholics should pray for the Pope, respect the Office and systematically critize heresies and heretics which have an abundance of support in today's world."

With ample reflection on Pope Francis words and prayer, one can find clarity in the face of any ambiguity that you may initially perceive.

I also thank you for taking the time to talk to me about these matters, but my first evidence in these matters of truth is the Gospel and people who don't have an obvious agenda against the Pope or an obvious one for him at all costs.

Yeah... hilarious, "Go to confession..." 😀 Is just too funny... but, hey... moving on.

Ignore "Dr confession" who doesn't follow the teachings of his liberal pope "Obeying our consciences" since he made it for atheists, and in his autobiography he also did for gays, then, because he opened that door, it is applied to all who wants to defend their faith. My conscience is at peace and clear... we shouldn't follow WOLVES in sheep clothing says the Lord and even less to WHOM has revealed himself as a ultra-liberal, by letting Bruno and Kasper continue one at the synod administration and other PR-ing the gay agenda and communion to the unrepentant.

Wait I know what you'll say: "Go to confession"... nah... no worries, Ignore Dr. confession... RESIST this liberal pope.

Before anyone is qualified as a heretic the distinction between a material and a formal heresy must be made in a strict sense.

Before anyone is qualified as a heretic the distinction between a material and a formal heresy must be made in a strict sense. Modernists in general avoid to formally declare themselves as heretics in order to disguise, for example in contrary to Martin Luther. For this reason it is difficult for faithful to diagnose and identify this heresy which Saint Pope Pius x not without reason called the "synthesis of all heresies". Moreover, widespread protestantism in the Church, which was identified as the root of the false interpretation of doctrine at the Synod has been generally welcomed by faulty ecumenism. UNWORTHY, please thank God and pray for this Roman-catholic Priest. He courageously reveals and combats modern heresies, including the protestant h. revelaed at the synod. Best wishes from Poland to all. In Christo...

If one drop of deadly poison is needed to kill someone how many more drops of poison must we tolerate from Bergoglio to be mixed into a glass of water? His heresy is extremely dangerous because he mixes truth with lies he makes it more lethal and polluting to a greater number of people. This hurts those who are careless and confident. They hear a portion of truth and ignore the lies (poison) being mixed into the word that destroys them and those who are mesmerized believing his lies without even being able to discern because of the man himself. Who he pretends to be; how he speaks; and the words he chooses. Unlike Chavez, Obama, or other extremely Liberal leaders his words lead to not a physical death but the eternal death of the soul.

In the case of my diagnosis of modernism you have drawn a faulty conclusion. Again, instead of insinuating please take an effort to analyze basic facts and surrounding reality.

In the case of my diagnosis of modernism you have drawn a faulty conclusion. Again, instead of insinuating please take an effort to analyze basic facts and surrounding reality. At the synod almost 2/3 of Synodal Fathers have embraced false views in accord with the homosexual agenda. The Pope supports those 2/3 because 3 paragraphs disputed, even though not accepted by majority of vote required, were included in the final document and sent out to all dioceses. If you negate the facts that each human being has a free will, including the Pope, and that inside the Church there are traitors, like Judas was, you will always be under a misconception in your imagination that a human Pope can never fall into error/heresy.

Before the Synod, I could agree with the theory that the Pope was sometimes a victim of stereotype opinion. However, after the synod the facts(not me not gloria.tv) clearly prove that the Pope does not adhere synchronously in words and actions to the catholic doctrine on Indissolubility of Marriage.

After the Relatio the shameless author has been promoted to next year's Synod by the Pope. In contrary, the defender of catholic doctrine on marriage, Card Burke, was "downgraded". The proof of heresy and support of it is there. Nevertheless, you must read and reach conclusions based on the truth. Otherwise you will lose the chance of embracing the Truth. Mainstream media have gone with the global tide of criticism of "Relatio" but never understood it. On the "next day" they went back to their support of correctness.

Please, take under consideration the fact that the Pope in general is praised by global mainstream(including LGBT). Be more courteous and permit Catholics to defend their faith in media that have all against them and a minimal ratio of participation in the global market. Remember, simultaneous praising and cristising any person who supports heresies or heretics leads to ambiguity. Roman-catholics should pray for the Pope, respect the Office and systematically critize heresies and heretics which have an abundance of support in today's world.

P.S. I appreciate this important polemics with you, however looking for evidence can be an endless search for truth if one does not: read, listen and want to understand truth.

Just saw your previous comment, sorry I missed it earlier. I can see why you think the Church is plagued with modernism, there may be some in the Church who believe in innovating Church teaching but the majority are faithful and don't accept modernise - this as seen from the result of the recent Synod. Also remember that the Church is not simply a human institution but also one under the influence of God. Even if you are a person who doesn't agree with Pope Francis, that God is present and can bring good out of any situation has to be acknowledged.

I don't think I've been emotional in my responses here and faith-based reason is the basis for my engagement in these discussions. I have simply tried to point out that commentary on Pope Francis on @Gloria.TV News is one sided, choosing to pick comments of those who have some criticisms of Pope Francis because it fits the narrative agenda of Gloria TV. This is not defending the faith, this is undermining the bishop of Rome based on a misconception that he has a liberal agenda for the Church - despite his own admissions of loyalty to the Gospel and Church teachings on many occasions (but these aren't reported here, why?).

On the Relatio, the 'shameless author' lost, he was defeated by his bother bishops and will be again if he tries anything else, Cardinal Burke, Pell, Napier and a host of others had choice words about the relation draft. Please feel free to go ahead and criticise heretical views but also make sure you are able to properly identify heresy - that is why I was asking for proof in my previous posts. Many Catholic media who are more mainstream raised concerns about the mid-term Relatio too, if you read them then you will know this.

I am well aware that I am a guest here, but if commentary about the Pope is placed in a public place (such as the Internet) then people have a right to respond and to challenge (just as people respond to and challenge my posts) the way news is delivered and handled on this site, especially when it is a little uneven - why won't Gloria TV News acknowledge other stories that bear just as much truth about Pope Francis as in the ones they selectively choose for their news bulletins? I think I've demonstrated to you that my reasoning is based on faith and intellect - I would not make an argument based purely on emotion.

It is the utmost degree of care to systematically criticize heretical views of the endangered soul in error and millions of souls who may be lead into error. Please try to base faith and reasoning on intellect instead of emotions derived from subjective point of views. I wish you humbleness and engagement in defense of catholic faith by directing your criticism to the majority of media that have fallen into the category of global political and religious correctness.

Liberals like to present the Orthodox as an example for allowing second marriages. They never say that this system by which you pay the priest in order to get rid of your wife, is a total disaster.
