You and those like you - who support the type of uneccesarliy heavy handed leadership of Burke (which is both uneccesary, and stupid in light of the universal apostacy & homosexuality flourishing in the clergy everywhere)do so because he has given you a tiny tidbit of verbalized "orthodoxy".

Uh-huh. Keep up your support........send him and his ilk all of your cash. You will willingly support a "bishop" like this.......

........until it is YOUR parish which is to have its assets seized/closed/merged/suppressed.

Then you will sing a different song. Or.......maybe, out of misplaced loyalty, you will rejoice as the bishops seizes your parish's assets, and the wrecking ball smashes the church your forebears sweated to build and fund.

This is all part of the diabolical disorientation where even good people will be confused.

Over the past forty years a new ideology has been introduced - blind obedience. This has never been a part of Catholic doctrine. Obedience itself is subordinate to the Faith. It is a human virtue and as such, lesser than the theological virtues. Obedience is a servant to the Faith, not the Faith itself. Of course, I shouldn't have to say blind obedience is due to God alone, never mortal men.

It's a new ideology. Most under 40-45 know nothing else. The corrupt hierarchy planned it and now take advantage of it.

Please read post 92. There's a lot more going on here than meets the eye. I want strong, othodox bishops who control what goes on in their diocese, no excuses. Burke is one of these and I support him.
