THE NEW INQUISITORS AGAINST RATZINGER The Self- Demolition of the Church recommences

There have been some great popes whose pontificates have been practically discarded by the errors of the clerics in their entourage. This risk is also present for the pontificate of Pope Francis.

In fact, there have been episodes, decisions and “bizarre outbursts” by some prelates that have been quite disturbing. I am thinking of Cardinal Maradiaga and Cardinal Braz de Aviz, who feel they are so powerful in the Vatican that they can ‘use the club’ on both the Prefect of the former Holy Office, Müller, as well as on the ‘Franciscans of the Immaculate.’

The targets of their “club-beatings” (given obviously in the name of mercy) are those who, for different reasons, have been targeted as paladins of Catholic orthodoxy and have had dealings with Pope Benedict XVI.

The real target in fact, appears actually to be him: “guilty” of so many things: from his historical condemnation of Liberation Theology and the defense of correct doctrine, to the Motu Proprio on the liturgy.

Maradiaga’s sophisms, which state that, yes, Jesus’ words on marriage are binding, “but they can be interpreted”

This guy, Maradiaga is a heretic.

Brazilian Cardinal João Braz de Aviz, who in a long interview, had nostalgic words of praise for the disastrous Liberation Theology.

Liberation Theology = Comunisim

(Parenthetical remarks mine).....The social justice (and worse) Catholic sophists are calling for "answers suitable for the world of today" and are "delivering these kinds of empty, elusive words which foster confusion and doubt...and this is the typical (read Alinsky) way which is spreading in the Church today to raise questions (read agitation and rebellion) without providing the answers".

This is the money paragraph in the linked article. This conservative Missouri Synod Lutheran prays they will not succeed in piecemeal nibbling (more Alinsky) till they finally attain their marxist goals.

Cardinal Maradiaga, close advisor to the pope: “The Second Vatican Council was the main event in the Church in the 20th Century. In principle, it meant an end to the hostilities between the Church and modernism, which was condemned in the First Vatican Council. “

An end to the hostilities between the Church and Modernism, the “synthesis of all heresies”? So the Church makes peace with heresies these days, as a consequence of Vatican II?

Brazilian Cardinal João Braz de Aviz looks fondly upon Liberation Theology, an anti-Christian philosophy on its face.

Pope St. Pius X, PASCENDI DOMINICI GREGIS: “On what grounds can Modernists deny the truth of an experience affirmed by a follower of Islam? Will they claim a monopoly of true experiences for Catholics alone? Indeed, Modernists do not deny, but actually maintain, some confusedly, others frankly, that all religions are true. That they cannot feel otherwise is obvious. For on what ground, according to their theories, could falsity be predicated of any religion whatsoever?”

Pope Francis: “Sharing our experience in carrying that cross, to expel the illness within our hearts, which embitters our life: it is important that you do this in your meetings. Those that are Christian, with the Bible, and those that are Muslim, with the Quran. The faith that your parents instilled in you will always help you move on.”

The bizarre rhetoric emanating from the Vatican lately is disturbing, to say the least.
