Francis Indulges In "Clericalism Pure": More Concelebrating Bishops Than Faithful
Francis doesn’t want Europe to be comfortably within the existing structures and “in the security provided by our traditions” while he admitted that the “churches are emptying.”
Preaching at the September 23 Eucharist for the Plenary Assembly of the Council of European Bishops’ Conferences (CCEE), he gave his recipe to “make the Church beautiful and welcoming.”
“We need to look together to the future, not to restore the past, which unfortunately is a fad. Restoring the past will kill us, it will kill everyone," Francis said, although he is stuck in the failed and outdated Vatican II of the past century.
He then warned of people who “instead of radiating the contagious joy of the Gospel, keep speaking in outworn intellectualistic and moralistic religious language.”
The eucharist was an extreme expression of Francis' clericalism as more co-presiding bishops were present than faithful. Cardinal Bagnasco, President of CCEE, was absent, due to Covid despite being "vaccinated."
