Vaticanista Sandro Magister, writing for the Italian L’Espresso magazine, notes that since the extraordinary synod last October, Pope Francis has spoken out on questions like abortion, divorce, homosexuality, and contraception 40 times -- 40 times

Doesn't cancel out the bizarre, objectively heretical statements he has also made, and his enthusiastic support for Kasperian "serene" theology. But worse than that are his horrible appointments (well in excess of 40). When weighing the evidence, actions speak louder than words, and the evidence is painfully clear. He is providing material support to the modernist agenda, and the world is applauding him for it.

Prayers and fasting I beg you, for the Successor of Peter.

Amen to that.

"Doesn't cancel out the bizarre, objectively heretical statements he has also made..."

Rather mordantly, I must observe that Pope Francis rarely communicates anything in such an unambiguous way as to be formally heretical. In fact, that is his main problem, it seems to me: mushiness and equivocation. It's loose, off-the-cuff blather. It's damaging. It emboldens the wolves and perplexes the sheep. (I must interject for the dozenth time, "Oh, how I miss Benedict!")

But clear-cut heresy? -- It would almost be a relief if something he said WERE so clearly that it could not be shuffled back into the deck with "I didn't mean it that way!"
