Thank God for good men. It gives me hope to know that all was not lost when Cardinal Burke was sent out to pasture in Malta.

That deposit of faith, the Pope continued, is not a museum to visit,
nor even something merely to safeguard, but is a living source from which the Church shall drink, to satisfy the thirst of, and illuminate, the deposit of life.
Blatant heresy. Bergoglio has made his evil intentions known to all.
It is the pope's duty to safeguard the deposit of faith. Who's thirst is he trying to satisfy? Luther's?

I am always a bit bemused and perplexed by how many threads there are on my church on FR.
If you’re not Catholic, then butt put.

Sounds like a good start to the synod. As Christians are martyred and tortured around the world there needs to be a clear message from the synod by courageously proclaiming and embracing the truth of Christ.

I expect that sort of commentary from CBS News.
He is quite clearly saying that “merely” (his word, which you chose to omit) “safeguard[ing]” the “deposit of faith” is not enough. He is clearly saying that the “deposit of faith” must be USED: to “satisfy thirst”, and to “illuminate”. This darkened world desperately thirsts for TRUTH ... that marriage is a lifelong union, that marriage is a union of one Man and one Woman.

Now you’re making things up.
P.S. This world has known the Truth ever since Christ’s Ascension. Why, then, is Francis convening a synod to put that Truth to question?

The two of you have a vocabulary as filthy as Bergoglio’s. Terms I had never heard of before the likes of all three of you.

Well, we will see. The “good men”, however, placed in the Vatican posts by Pope Benedict, were all sent out to pasture, or elsewhere out of the sphere of influence for tradition, replaced with those basically inclined to schmooze with modernism in the world. imho, only.

My apologies. You did not omit it.
You appear to have IGNORED it. That's even worse.
"Don't do 'X'" is an entirely different command from "Don't merely do 'X'". Anyone who can comprehend the English language knows this.
Your comment: "Blatant heresy. Bergoglio has made his evil intentions known to all." is pure insanity. To equate both safeguarding and applying the "deposit of faith" with "heresy" and "evil intentions" is the height of absurdity.
Then we have this gem, from you: "Now youre making things up." Quit acting like an idiot. I'm reading and comprehending the English language, and explaining its plain meaning to you. I'm quite certain that you, too, can comprehend the English language. Implying evil intentions where none exist is a bad habit.
You write: "Why, then, is Francis convening a synod to put that Truth to question?" That's what we call "begging the question". It's another bad habit.
These days, the world needs Captain Obvious to tell it the Truth about marriage (among other things). Is he calling the synod to "put the Truth to question" or is he calling the synod to proclaim the Truth?

The Deposit of Faith is the body of doctrines handed down from Jesus to the Apostles, from the Apostles to their successors, and so forth to our times. The Deposit of Faith contains the complete body of doctrines that make up the Catholic Faith. Nothing can be added that is not contained, at least implicitly, within the Deposit of Faith, and nothing can be taken away, for public revelation ceased with the death of the last apostle.

Is he calling the synod to "put the Truth to question" or is he calling the synod to proclaim the Truth? The answer is obviously the former.
Next question?

The answer is obviously the former. On the contrary. Your conclusion is far from obvious.
In fact, I think it's false.

Then why call a synod to question Christ’s teachings?

The Pope does not need to convene a synod to countermand what all former popes have taught. What makes him smarter or holier or “humbler” than his predecessors?
