“Signs and Wonders” from the Pope?

Interesting choice of words.

The term “signs and wonders” is already mentioned in the Bible and they are not necessarily a good thing.

God is punishing the West. Obama and Francis are the chosen instruments, chosen by the very self-designated elite who hate God.

“... abolition of priestly celibacy, ...”

The priests have done that already, but will the Pope allow the priests to marry each other or nuns to wed each other (in states where queer marriage is allowed)?

It is Cardinal Schonberg I wonder about. All signs point that he should exit the Catholic Church, since he doesn’t follow the Church’s teaching on marriage and most likely more.

The Cardinal says it is “frightening” that Western governments are looking “inward” suspicious of their own people. It is frightening. With the continuing decline of morality, countries move closer and closer to dictatorship because their populaces are increasingly untamed by the pursuit of virtue. Our founders knew our founding documents were made only for an upright, moral citizenry. Perverse freedom, license, ironically leads to a new slavery.
As Pope Benedict said and Pope Francis has repeated, “a dictatorship of relativism is being formed”.
