papolatry...

* A neologism invented by a schismatic rag and used by schismatics to attack Faithful Catholics. Such a word does not exist in Tradition.

But, the neo-trads are liberals. They submit to no authority if that authority opposes their personal predelictions, proclivities, prejudices. They are functionally protestant and woe betide that Faithful Christian who laughs at their presumptions, haughtiness, pride, arrogance, heresies and inanitites.

It is hysterically funny to read poorly-catehized and poorly-informed, laity (who publish from a basement) accusing such Saintly Theological genuises as Johannes Paulus Magnus of malign intent, poor theology and heretical actions.

But, birds gotta fly, fish gotta swim, and schismatics gotta attack Divinely-Constituted authority to justify their perfidy.

The Oath of Modernism appikes to thse clowns in spades

THE OATH AGAINST MODERNISM ... Given by His Holiness St. Pius X September 1, 1910. To be sworn to by all clergy, pastors, confessors, preachers, religious superiors, and professors in philosophical-theological seminaries.

I . . . . firmly embrace and accept each and every definition that has been set forth and declared by the unerring teaching authority of the Church...

The Remnant should just publish their Creed on its masthead.

The Schismatic Creed

WAR IS PEACE

FREEDOM IS SLAVERY

IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

OBEDIENCE IS HERESY

SCHISM IS FIDELITY

You mean heresies such as your own, that is, every utterance of the Pope is infallible and above reproach.

Criticizing the Pope when he causes a scandal or sows confusion among the faithful is not pride, but justice. So you support JP2's kissing of the Qur'an or the Assisi events with pagans who should be converted, not prayed with.

The pope has no authority to alter Tradition, nor can he change one iota of revealed truth.

I guess then you should take a look at the mess JP2 left the Catholic Church. The decline in Mass attendance, tolerance of the sex abuse scandals, rampant Modernism, the refusal to discipline liberal bishops, sanctioning of the Neo-Protestant Charismatic Movement, etc.

JP2's actions contributed to the situation with the Traditionalists because he could have welcomed them with open arms and allowed them the privilege of saying the Old Rite whenever they wanted to.

You twist words here calling Traditionalists liberals, considering the Popes of the Vatican II era have all embraced the same sort of Liberalism that Pius IX condemned a century before.

Gotta love your ad hominem attacks.

Papolatry=the extreme veneration of papal authority to the point of saying he can do no wrong.

Are you aware that Pope Benedict XVI, as Cardinal Ratzinger in his capacity as head of CDF, condemned Ultramontanism as a heresy?

"14. In recalling these essential points of Catholic doctrine on the primacy of Peter's Successor, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is certain that the authoritative reaffirmation of these doctrinal achievements offers greater clarity on the way to be followed.

This reminder is also useful for avoiding the continual possibility of relapsing into biased and one-sided positions already rejected by the Church in the past (Febronianism, Gallicanism, ultramontanism, conciliarism, etc.)."

Ultramontanism ascribes infallibility to every one of the pope's actions including his private ones.

Perhaps if you read Card. Ratzinger's explanation of the Roman Primacy, you will see, it is you who are mistaken.

Maybe you should repent of you Ultramontane heresy.
