In terms of the new union, the 70-year-old Semeraro said it should be “consolidated in time and lived in fidelity, marked by sincere affection and responsibility with regard to the children, sustained by prayer and habitual participation in the life of the parochial community.”

[Cicero]

All but one of the Cardinals look like bobble toys. And I suppose Pope Francis is the Bobbler.

Does this mean the second marriage? How about the third? Maybe the fourth?

What about the sincerely never married and just living together?

How about the married in a secular courthouse, but because of conscience, not married in the church because of a, b, or c.

Stretching the semantics into pretzels is not a good way to live the Gospel.

Calling Bishop Spong!

[Petrosius]

Among other things, Semeraro identified certain conditions as indispensable for any meaningful discernment, such as the status of one’s previous union and loyalty to the new one, as well as awareness that the new situation is “irregular.”

How about loyalty to Jesus Christ and his teaching that those who divorce and marry again are committing adultery?

Bergoglio has pontificated in ambiguous footnotes, through sin-nod agendas, in flattering apostates, banishing the devout to island retreats and insulted the faithful.

We hear him very well and see his devastation. Bent on replacing the devout Shepherds and the faithful, with apostate wolves, and non-believers, anti-Catholics and the dis-ordered, he must hope to create the largest Protestant sect of them all.

These works are not of God and are intentionally schismatic. Since these actors possess the buildings and the Seat of Peter, the galactically stupid will happily believe that the faithful are schismatics and the diabolical Modernists are now Seat of Peter and represent Holy Mother Church. This is to be, but only until all the faithful are gathered into the new Israel, His Church, The Mystical Body of Christ, built on Peter, the rock.
