Climb-Down: A couple of month ago the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller published along with other four cardinals a book which defends the indissolubility of Catholic marriage. But now he has relativized his words in a statement for the Italian daily Corriere della Sera. Müller complained that he was presented by the media as a member of a Church intern opposition, which – according to his own words - he is not. The text he published in the book was written a year ago. Müller believes that the time of the publication of the book, just before the Synod of Bishops for the Family, is – quote – “unfortunate”.
Turncoat: Another author of the same book that defends the indissolubility of Catholic marriage has withdrawn his position. Cardinal Velasio de Paolis said last Saturday that his essay, published in the book was likewise written a couple of months ago. If the Synod on the Family would …More
Pope Benedict as a Cardinal remarked that “a pope is not an absolute monarch whose will is law but is the guardian of the authentic Tradition.”
Only a Council have the capacity to define and legislate dogmas, synods are only advisory.

Germen No entiendo porque usted dice''in that case and in the circumstances that the synod approve it (if adopted) would have to obey.'' a que se refiere usted_?
Sin detallar las contradicciones que dijo en todo su comentario. Su comentario contradice las palabras de la escritura y las palabras del mismo Joseph Ratzinger “Me parece muy importante que el Catecismo, mencionando los límites del poder de la suprema autoridad de la Iglesia sobre la reforma, recuerde cuál es la esencia del primado, tal como la resaltan los Concilios Vaticanos I y II: el Papa no es un monarca absoluto cuya voluntad es ley; más bien, es el custodio de la antigua Tradición [una de las dos fuentes de la divina revelación – ndr), y el primer garante de la obediencia. No puede hacer lo que quiere... La ley a la que debe atenerse no es el actuar ´ad libitum´, sino la obediencia a la fe.
El cardenal Velasio de Paolis, dijo el sábado que Si el Sínodo sobre la familia vota contra la indisolubilidad del matrimonio, el "no voy a tener ningún problema con eso".
Primero hay que aclarar que los sínodos a diferencia de los concilios, que tienen capacidad para definir dogmas y legislar, los sínodos son solo consultivos.
Segundo el mismo Cardenal Velasio ataca la palabra de Dios doblemente esta atacando dos sacramentos y retando las palabras de Jesucristo.
Tercero las palabras de ningún papa es ley de un Monarca como lo dijo el mismo Papa Benedicto sino que esta sometidas a la obediencia al deposito de Fe. Ningún papa puede cambiar el deposito de fe, ni agregar o añadir nada a la escritura ni cambiar los 10 mandamientos de la ley de Dios.
Knights4Christ, Catholics very well know how to address Pope Francis; on account of his great dignity, he is called the Holy Father, His Holiness, Vicar of Christ, Father of Christendom and because of the opening words of Christ to St. Peter “Blessed art thou”(Matt. 16:17) the Pope is also addressed as Beatissime Pater.
If the Synod on the Family would de facto vote against the indissolubility of marriage, then Velasio said I "won’t have any problem with that".
In other words he is in favor of sacrilege to eat the body and blood of Christ in a state of mortal sin that is against the scripture and in addition he attack the sacrament of Marriage and attacks the sacrament of the Eucharist.
If the Synod on the Family would de facto vote against the indissolubility of marriage, then Velasio said I "won’t have any problem with that".
The Cardinal has not pronounced against the indissolubility of marriage that is untouchable, divine right, but about communion for divorced and remarried .... in that case and in the circumstances that the synod approve it (if adopted) would have to obey.
Cardinale De Paolis:
La sua posizione circa la possibilità di concedere l'eucaristia ai divorziati risposati non ammette aperture. Perché?
"In gioco c'è la legge divina, l'indissolubilità del matrimonio. Una legge proclamata solennemente da Gesù e confermata più volte dalla Chiesa, al punto che la norma che afferma che il matrimonio rato e consumato tra battezzati non può essere sciolto da nessuna autorità umana ma viene sciolto solo dalla morte, è dottrina di fede della Chiesa".
Ma se il Sinodo decidesse di arrivare a una nuova soluzione pastorale lei cosa farebbe?
"Io obbedirei alla decisione presa. Non avrei nessun problema al riguardo. Però, nello stesso tempo, voglio avere la libertà di dire come la penso senza essere accusato di essere complottista".

Wow... talking about being fearful for their careers. Someone was telling me the other day, a friend of mine, this day was foretold... one in a high place will speak for Jesus and another also in high place will betray Him, I guess the Judas factory has more benefits than than the knights of malta... Sad day for all voiceless Catholics in this synod.
