"Not in Schism": Bishop Corrects Himself

Catholic, perhaps; or Catholic of the Roman Rite, possibly

Should We Wait for the College of Cardinals to Declare Bergoglio an Antipope?

Do you see a solution ? I don't. I think he will just have to be tolerated until he dies or abdicates. A lot of what he does was prepared for by JP2, with his "Ecumenical Martyrology", and similar undertakings. In the meantime, the Popes will have full freedom to corrupt the Church. Which they are v. good at doing.

Should We Wait for the College of Cardinals to Declare Bergoglio an Antipope?

To declare him an Antipope would undermine many of the cardinals, since many of them owe their positions in the CC to him. And there is the further complication, that they would need to decide whether he was always an Antipope. If he was formerly a legitimate Pope - when did he forfeit the Papacy ? And how ?

Jesus could have been transgender, claims Cambridge dean

They would of course not dream of saying Mahomet was transgender. Because that would have unpleasant consequences.

What happened to October's prediction of Fr. MIchel Rodrigue, why did they not come to pass?

Because my cat is more of a prophet than the Seer of Quebec is.

What happened to October's prediction of Fr. MIchel Rodrigue, why did they not come to pass?

The Church is infested with these false prophets. And what do the "bishops" do ? Nothing, of course. Poisoning and corrupting and neglecting the Faithful is what the "bishops" do best in today's "renewed", "NuVangelising", "Poopicostal", Unholy Crutch.

American Becomes President Of European Bishops’ Conferences

The US is in Europe ? Really ? Maybe an Indonesian, English or Scottish bishop can become chairman of the USCCB, or of CELAM.

⛪THE VIGANÒ TAPES📼#9 - IN NO WAY CAN WE ACCEPT

Bergoglio seems very eager not to call himself pope. I think it is a fair question whether he can be regarded as one. If he is merely bishop of Rome - who (under Christ) is the head of the Universal Church on Earth ? Ratzinger, or nobody, or who ?

The Future?

They were able to wreck it - so they did. That is what comes of having a church government in which the highest authority is free of all checks and balances & restraints, and can do anything whatsoever that it wants. Tyranny and absolutism are objectionable enough in purely human politics - they do not become good when they are found in the Church.

The Future?

The papacy is an "earthly authority", so......

Francis Commands Visitation At Famous Old Rite Carmelite Nuns

Cracks in the Party: Comunione e Liberazione Rebells Against Francis

That final sentence in German is:
“Nun kursieren in Rom Gerüchte, Franziskus werde sich an CL rächen und die Bewegung unter einen Kommissar stellen.”
In English:
“Now rumors are circulating in Rome that Francis will take revenge on CL and place the movement under a commissioner.”
Which makes perfect sense.More

Outcry: Rabbinic Magisterium "Corrects" Francis

One can be a Catholic, and fail miserably in all sorts of ways, even in very important ones. But one will be an unhealthy Catholic, not a healthy one. Every Catholic on Earth is an unhealthy Catholic, to some degree or in some way. The sooner the (divisive and untruthful) label "True Catholic" is forgotten, the better. The only "TC", in any worthwhile sense, is Christ Himself, since He alone is the …More

Outcry: Rabbinic Magisterium "Corrects" Francis

Francis is merely saying what St Paul said. A mere pope has no authority to unsay what an Apostle, writing inspired Scripture, says.
If the rabbi objects to what the Apostle St Paul says in an inspired letter, too bad. Sorry. Just as, if non-Jews object to Scripture, too bad.
BTW, it is scandalous that the modern papacy has by word and deed renounced the mission to the Jews, and also to the Orthodox …More

BTW, it is scandalous that the modern papacy has by word and deed renounced the mission to the Jews, and also to the Orthodox. Since Jesus Christ laid this universal charge upon the Church, no-one in the Church can possibly by any means renounce it. No pope or Council has that power or that competence. Christ did not confer a share in His Authority upon St Peter and the other Apostles, in order to allow them to contradict, evade or disobey His commands. He conferred it in order to equip them to obey His commands. If bishops don't intend to obey Him, they need to resign their share in the Authority Christ conferred on them. They have no business retaining it, unless they intend to do as He commands. It really is that simple.
