Cardinal Koch Needs "Imagination" to Understand Francis

During a press conference on a recent Vatican paper proposing the abolition of the papal primacy, Cardinal Kurt Koch was asked why Francis had reinstated the title of "Patriarch of the West".

A visibly embarrassed Koch replied sarcastically: "We need some imagination to comment on that."

Regarding Francis' homosexual propaganda manifesto 'Fiducia supplicans', Cardinal Koch admitted that it had caused problems "not only in ecumenism, but also in the Catholic Church". He noted that "it is a big thing when a continent goes against a decision of the Holy Father".

At the same press conference, Cardinal Grech spoke openly of a "revision of the papacy" and said that his ex-synod was the most appropriate framework for this.

His point of reference was a quote from Francis in 2015 that presents an inadequate conception of the papacy.

Francis said at the time that a pope stands in the Church as "a baptised man among the baptised, and in the College of Bishops as a bishop among bishops, called at the same time, as the successor of the Apostle Peter, to lead the Church of Rome, which presides in love over all the Churches".

But all this talk is only to deceive the fools. In reality, Francis rules as an absolutist tyrant who treats the other bishops as if they were his altar boys, and the fact that they allow themselves to be treated as such shows that they are not much more than that.

True Catholics don't need imagination to understand Francis. They just know a wolf among the flock by instinct.

Francis did not restore the title of "Patriarch of the West." He simply added this title to the list of those titles which he had renounced, and which are now listed in the papal yearbook only as "historical titles".

Cardinal Cantalamessa confirmed and approved Francis's renunciation of all these titles, especially the title of "Vicar of Christ". Since this list consists of titles that are no longer relevant for Francis, he easily included the title “Patriarch of the West” in it.
