That story subverts any Church teaching we have taught in the past and it neutralizes if not renders completely ineffective, any attempt we make to persuade them that celibacy, chastity, Sacramental Marriage until death, Sunday obligation and other explanations in the Catechism about the Ten Commandments in the future.

Seems he fired a couple of Jesuits in Argentina when they didn’t do as told. There was a lengthly dissertation on the incident and it made me go hmmmmm.
To whom is he referring when he writes of " long suffering Catholic journalists who have been luring our children into adultery and sexual debauchery"?
Who are these "long-suffering" journalists?
Marking for later.
Cardinal Burke was demoted for being a faithful Catholic, while the great reformer reinstated language concerning homosexuals in the Synod’s final document. The rule governing the language of the Synod which required two thirds of the bishops to vote in favor was swept aside by Francis, so that the original language concerning homosexuals will remain in the final document. So much for open and fair discussions.
This is just the beginning. Be prepared. The smears against traditional, faithful Catholics will intensify as Francis attempts to destroy the Catholic Church.
re: the Schism
Pope St. Pius X declared in his encyclical “Pascendi Dominici Gregis” (1907) that Modernism is the “synthesis of all heresies.” For those who don’t know what Modernism is, in a nutshell it denies that God has revealed Truth, that there is a Right and a Wrong, and that there is a way for us to know it, namely from Sacred Scripture. Modernism says, “Since we can’t know for sure what is right and what is wrong, I’ll just go with what I feel. What you’re saying may be true for you, but not for me.” When “Bishop of Rome” Bergolio said, “Who am I to judge?” it was one more Modernist mark against him. With this recent synod, I am convinced that he is a full-blown Modernist. Which, according to Pope St. Pius X, makes him a heretic.
We then next come to “Cum Ex Apostolic Officio,” issued 15 Feb. 1559 by Pope Paul IV which focused on the validity of a prelate or Pope in the event they were in heresy or apostasy. It says, among other things, that the Pope must be contradicted if he is found to have deviated from the Faith, and that if he has been found to be a heretic, he has no authority. It permits those who should offer him their obedience to withdraw it at any time without being subject to the retribution of any censures or penalties. This Bull was issued “Ex cathedra” and is considered not only infallible, but to be held in perpetuity.
It would behoove all of us to become intimately familiar with these two encyclicals, in order to have facts and the teachings of the Church in our arsenal.
This reads like the rantings of a lunatic, and a poor writer, at that.
Cardinal Burke is a great and holy man, and should be a model for all priests. However, the religious life isn’t about politics, nor is it about careerism.
Some of the greatest saints have been door holders, children, and shepherds. Saints are also obedient (Padre Pio).
While Cardinal Burke has been called the Athanasius of our day, I sincerely doubt his reassignment is the big deal people are making it out to be.
There is so much bluster signifying nothing. Has any doctrine or dogma been changed? Nope. The only change in the Universal Church has been the addition of St. Joseph in the Eucharistic Prayer.
Please, will all those crying “End Times!” please take hope. We have the promise of Our Lord the gates of Hell will not prevail. Let not your hearts be troubled. If you are worried, then pray. Pray for all priests and bishops, as you did at Mass today.
Whoever criticizes either side will be like a policeman intervening in a domestic dispute. Certain death. Catholic-bashers, haters, etc., ad nauseum.
This is the way the church was when I was young. We had dyke nuns telling us when we were young that abortion was like removing a wart. Homos abused boys.
Given the problems of homosexual perverts in the church attacking other people’s children, I would feel real uncomfortable having my children in the church where they think they will get away with their “sexuality”. Perverts tell themselves all kinds of bizarre stuff to rationalize what they do. Pervert priests have the advantage of unquestionable authority and trust as well. Give them an inch and they will take one thousand miles before you can turn around. They are mental and so are their abettors.
If Francis unleashes the homos and their “compassionate” Bishop and Cardinal madams, get your kids into a different Christian place or do home school religion lessons and Mass at home with them. God put them in your hands and He knows. There will be a lot of home churches as liberals “progress” into queering and globalizing the Christian church organizations and institutions.
As liberals impose Christlam on Christians, look over to Britain to see how the Muslims treat the little female infidels they have access to.
