No Freedom To Insult Religion: On board of the plane that brought him from Sri Lanka to the Philippines Pope Francis commented on freedom of expression referring to the French defamation magazine Charlie Hebdo. Quote: “One is not allowed to insult the faith of others.” Francis referred to Mister Gasbarri, the responsible for the organization of the Apostolic Journey who was standing next to him, saying: “If Mister Gasbarri who is a big friend of mine says a bad word against my mother, then he must be ready to receive a punch.”

LICH Br Alexis Bugnolo!

I have read your article and translation "Backsliding to Synod15". After public criticism by Abp. Gadecki of the Relatio and outcome of the final vote with 3 rejected par., the image has been clarified for Roman Catholics. Catholic theologians and philosophers in Poland have extended the proof of material heresy in the docs and traced it back to stem from Luther's protestant heresy. We have learned a lot from some excellent conferences on the Synod.

There are Catholics here in Poland who share your observations,arguments and objections, from consecrated to laity and from prof to workers. All motivated to use their "fides et ratio". Unfortunately, there is more and more evidence that the Synod documents were not accidental. Our Lady has messaged of the upcoming apostasy. On October, 13 came out the anti-catholic Relatio!!! In adddition, one can read that the Pope has been warned of his heretic theologian Card. Kasper and never rejected the Relatio scandalous author Abp. Forte, who was again rewarded to final Synod.

May God's Providence guide you Brother and all whom you co-operate with to protect the integral Catholic doctrine from anyone who attempts to apply to it the "theory of graduality". Please remain in Faith, Love and Hope and prayer, especially for the Pope and your persecutors. Our Lady will crush the head of satan with help of Her slaves and soldiers.

Thank God for the "sensus catholicus" you transmit cross-border and for all the good you do for the Church.

In Christo,

Rafał

P.S. Private correspondence from you will be welcomed.

To insist otherwise as you have have, shows signs of an agenda (considering just about all of your posts are on the non-existent team Bergolio 'scandal').

Also judging my motivations for defending this latest outrageous attack on Pope Francis means you've been backed into a corner and have no other course but to try and present my actions as dishonest which is ironic considering all I've done is presented the facts.

Please see things the way they really are not the way the anti-Francis crowd tries (but fails) to present our Pope.

"Statement accursed Francisco Bergoglio"

If one gets insight where Pope Francis studied theology and whom he is influenced by (ncronline.org/…/cardinal-kasper…), one should offer sympathy to one of numerous victims of modernism rather than an offender.
Of course the Pope has a free will and acts upon it. Nevertheless, keep in mind that new theology has totally brain washed and infected many, similarly to the Arian times. Benedict XVI wasn't free of errors like each human being. Our Lady of Fatima warned of mass apostasy. Moreover, we should cautiously observe the preparations for the main events in the year 2017. Celebrations for the 500-th anniversary of the reformation by anti-catholic heretic M. Luther with the Vatican are in the advanced stage. On the other hand, I can not observe any preparations for 100th anniversary of apparitions in Fatima in the Vatican. Year 2017 will clearly reveal the true intentions of the Pope that will be in the Office.

From my knowledge the athanema is not effective because schismatics can't exclude Catholics from the Church. However, it is a great paradox that the East today aheres in pastoral practice to the true teachings about natural law in Scripture, Tradition and Magisterium while Pope Francis, Cardinal Kapser and many others of the West are drifting away. The answer is found in the message of Fatima from Our Lady. As to the validity of the conclave, the competence is in the hands of God and the Cardinals rather than laity. God can at any time end our lives or give us a St. Athanasius of our times to combat heresy. Pope Benedict XVI shows no strenght and will to battle for the Office.

Personally, as a Roman Catholic I see the truth (sins and mistakes of the Vicar of Christ), like sometimes a son watches the addiction of his alcoholic father. Remember the Polish Roman Catholic Church many times in history did not go into extremes, but rather acted prudently. The fruits of our strategy in the Church are worth following. Because I personally base my faith on God (with the before mentioned hierarchy) apostasy, errors, sins of Hierarchy,clergy, laity and myself in no way influence my faith in the Holy Trinity - the only One True God, whom I trust above all. Each human being is entitled to forward the critical truth in a tough but rational and polite manner, including directly to the Pope. Roman Catholics should fight for each soul which satan wants to lose forever, including the Pope's. Finally, a prayer for the Pope and others, is the most merciful act which every soul longs for.

Jesus I trust in You.

The greatest and most dangerous malady inside the Church is modernism. It is the "collection of all maladies/ heresies". The enormous modernist pride reveals itself in the following "symptoms" of:
1. practicing idolatry(including papalatry) that results in a reverse hierarchy(as follows cult Latria, hiper-dulia and lastly dulia) in the form of their modern anthropocentric religious cult,

The greatest and most dangerous malady inside the Church is modernism. It is the "collection of all maladies/ heresies". The enormous modernist pride reveals itself in the following "symptoms" of:

1. practicing idolatry(including papalatry) that results in a reverse hierarchy(as follows cult Latria, hiper-dulia and lastly dulia) in the form of their modern anthropocentric religious cult,

2. perverse understanding and interpretation of truth and facts,

3. false certitude of one's ability to read in souls and hearts, especially of Catholics, in order to subdue their conscience and supersede discernment of competent spiritual Fathers(by stealthy method of suggesting confession to Catholics after enhancing incrimination over insinuated sins and imposing remorse),

4. synchronous contradiction in dialect(all levels of communication),

5. multiplication of comments, especially responses to comments not directed towards them(please do not put yourself in the center as the object, Mt 7 was intended as a reflection for Roman Catholics who sacrifice their precious time in prolonged discussions with modernists),

6. and adherence to ignorance resulting from blocked intellect infected by new theology and occult, especially visible in forwarded arguments that insult others' basic intelligence.

In summary, the modernists' religion concept of faith is based on imagination, as they do not accept the existence of the gift of free will Our Lord has given to each human being (likewise heretic protestants - i.e. Calvin). As a favorite tool, they implement censorship of facts and truth against their ideology and those who they adore, by rigidly enforcing it upon Roman Catholics. One hypocritical aspect of their irrational behavior in judging of Catholics is that they do not abide in practice to Pope Francis' words "who am I to judge?" Of course, this hypocritical exception only applies to their most dangerous enemies who have diagnosed their obvious malady.

I read Austen Ivereigh's account very closely - English is my first (and only) language, I'm not sure what gave you the impression that it isn't.

Anyway, here is what Austen Ivereigh said:

I made two mistakes in the phrasing of my account. One was to give the impression that the group of cardinals seeking Bergoglio's election in some way secured his agreement before the conclave, which they never did; I meant only that they believed that this time he would not refuse. Immediately after that sentence, I wrote: "Asked if he was willing, he said that he believed that at this time of crisis for the church no cardinal could refuse if asked." In fact, that exchange did not take place before the conclave, but during it.

The reason this matters is that conclave rules forbid the drawing up of pacts or agreements between cardinals. But they do not prevent cardinals urging each other to vote for particular candidates - that is how popes get made. When the four cardinals I cited said, through Father Lombardi, that there was no "campaign" to get Bergoglio elected, I assume they mean that there was no such agreement between them and him, and I have been happy to confirm that I never meant to suggest that there was.


You - or the anti-Francis blog you are quoting from have taken the phrase 'I stand by the veracity of my account' terribly out of context. That sentence is in the paragraph which follows what I posted above. Here it is:

Father Brennan asks: "Why will the book still report that 'Murphy-O'Connor knowingly warned Bergoglio to "be careful," that it was his turn now, and was told: capisco, "I understand"'?" Because that is what the cardinal said to Bergoglio before the conclave, and there was nothing wrong with it: such light-hearted yet pointed exchanges are normal in the pre-conclave discussions.

These clarifications notwithstanding, I am confident of the veracity of my account, and have heard nothing that contradicts it - although, as I say in the book, there is still much we are still to learn about that conclave.

Lindsaywtf, I suggest you read before commenting; but, considering your name, I will presume that English is not your first language, and thus, perhaps, you do not understand what Ivereigh is saying or not saying.

He recently celebrated mass Ad orientem for the feast of the Baptism of our Lord where he baptised a number of children. That doesn't prove he is enthusiastic about the TLM but if he was rampantly opposed to any aspect of it, wouldn't he go out of his way to avoid it.

There is nothing wrong with peaceful dialogue with other religions. A good relationship is key if you want to evangelises - unless you can tell me that Muslims and Hindus etc become Catholic when you criticise and abuse them etc

As for your scripture passage, on its own it's quite good I'm sure but don't forget that even the dogs eat the masters scraps under the table.

You interpretation of the state of the Church and our Pope is sadly lacking truth.
