“..criticized the pontiff’s pro-LGBT stance..” that, in and of itself tells me the Cardinal was right.

as a bishop in Argentina, wasn’t Francis a leader in the socialist “liberation movement” that moved the continent leftward??? If so, he has a deep hatred for all people and things labeled, “conservative.”

Attention Mr. Bergoglio:

Catechism of the Catholic Church:
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, 141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." 142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

If "intrinsically disordered" doesn't get the message across to you, try "abomination". That's the word used in Scripture

wear it like a badge of honor Raymond Burke because you are standing on scripture where this so called pope isn’t.

The WOKE, communist loving Pope is the one who should be removed from the Vatican, not cardinals who expose his blasphemy.

Burke, a 75-year-old canon lawyer whom Francis had fired as the Vatican’s high court justice in 2014, has become one of the most outspoken critics of the pope, his outreach to LGBTQ+ Catholics and his reform project to make the church more responsive to the needs of ordinary faithful.


Interesting way the Daily Mail characterizes Francis’ horrible actions.

If you had told me forty years ago that the American Catholic Church would be considered the conservative stronghold of the Catholic faith, I’d have told you to go pound sand ...

My heart is truly broken over Francis’ attack on the church he is supposed love and guard against destruction. Godly men like Burke now too well the sting of Francis’ betrayal.

There are no ordinary faithful. To suggest that is to believe a strategy of appealing to the lowest common denominator will grow the church. It might, but it won’t grow the faith. Because what Francis’ really means by ordinary is the ignorant, rebellious, stubborn, selfish, and complacent faithful. The same which even St. Paul admonished.

I don’t recall St. Paul writing that the faith had better change all that gruff about sin and salvation so that these faithful would not turn away. Did I miss that?

Souls are at stake. The false love of turning a blind eye to scandalous sin is damning. Francis will have to answer for much.

Today's Gospel reading:

Luke 21:12-19 © Your endurance will win you your lives

Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Men will seize you and persecute you; they will hand you over to the synagogues and to imprisonment, and bring you before kings and governors because of my name – and that will be your opportunity to bear witness.
Keep this carefully in mind: you are not to prepare your defence, because
I myself shall give you an eloquence and a wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to resist or contradict.
You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relations and friends; and some of you will be put to death.
You will be hated by all men on account of my name, but not a hair of your head will be lost.
Your endurance will win you your lives.’

Doesn’t the Pope have Papal Supremacy and is the Vicar of Christ and pastor of the entire Church have supreme and universal power over the whole Church? If so wouldn’t criticism or disobediance against him be disobediance of Christ and be a mortal sin?

Leave it to a lib to assume his very narrowly limited infallibility actually is a universal trait.

No free speech in the CCC (communist catholic church).
