@Tony M Hopefully, Bergoglio is merely the apogee of the Revolution that began 60 years ago. Sacrilegious Communion? Benedict did that with non-Catholic Brother Roger of Taize. Vatican II states that individual non-Catholics may receive the Eucharist. Benedict even urged the formation of more ecumenical communities like Taize. Benedict and John Paul II were the anthropomorphic expressions of Vatican II - full of contradictions that confused and demoralized. Wojtyla and Ratzinger created dogmatic antiquarianism by reigniting the Judaizing debate settled at the Council of Jerusalem (c.50 AD!) - with Benedict even participating in a synagogue service. Bergoglio is impossible without Wojtyla and Ratzinger.

I cannot imagine the extraordinary grace given to these heroes of the Faith. The Popes and Bishops failure - from the beginning of the "homosexual rights" movement, to directly teach the nations that homosexuality is a perversion, and it being offered ANY rights in ANY culture legitimizes this perversion - is an historical embarrassment for there One True Faith. It flows from the counterfeit post-conciliar "religion of man."

In the document whereby the hapless Paul VI permitted Communion in the hand, he nevertheless urged the faithful to continue the ancient tradition of Communion on the tongue. Another consideration is the fact that Paul's refusal to discipline those bishops and priests who were promoting Communion in the hand, despite this deviation being in disobedience to the laws of the Church, led to his being forced to give permission for the practice. And as Aquinas teaches: nothing. born in disobedience to the Church will bear fruit.
