I really feel for the poor Catholic people being stuck with this guy. Can a Pope be impeached or whatever it’d be called?
My read on all this is that the decision has already been taken. This IS going to happen. Those opposing will eventually be silenced or exiled.
This is being driven by the bottom line. The Church is experiencing a demographic and financial collapse. In my own diocese membership, Mass attendance and financial contributions are all down 50% in just fifteen years.
One of the major sources of outflow are Catholics who have a spouse divorce them, and are thus cut-off from full participation if they choose to remarry. Most of them opt to join other churches, where they TITHE.
This is really what is roiling the Vatican. They intend to bring them back, come hell or high water.
I understand the position of my fellow Catholics who oppose this....but thinking they can stop it is just as crazy as those people who thought they could flip enough electors to stop Trump.
The die has been cast.
TIME FOR A COUP
