Pope Francis On the Wrong Side of History? By Fr Reto Nay

Even more unfortunately, these bishops have applied the "Francis method" most fervently, long before Francis was elected. Already decades ago they introduced the five pillars of liberal ideology: liturgical minimalism, moral relativism, Holy Communion for remarried divorcees, green ideology, and poverty romanticism. The results are a total disaster.
Where the Church is alive, Francis' proposals are much less popular. Magister writes that the African bishops don't like them. The U.S. bishops are divided, “but if there was a referendum, Bergoglio lost it altogether”. Magister adds: “Even in Latin America, Bergoglio has few admirers.”
So, there is no way, Francis could win. Even if he did, he would lose. See what happens in Germany, Austria or Belgium...
