Bergoglio, the Man who Never Kneels Before God
Rotate Caeli ^ | 12/02/15 | Antonio Socci

Posted on 12/02/2015 10:23:06 AM PST by ebb tide

It's now starting to get very depressing, even disquieting....

Bergoglio never kneels in front of the Eucharist during Mass. He doesn't kneel or, at any rate, doesn't remain on his knees during Eucharist Adoration; the image of him standing in front of the Blessed Sacrament at the end of the Corpus Domini procession (which he didn't take part in) is unforgettable.

Now even the opening ceremony of the Holy Door, for the beginning of the Jubilee-- is embarrassing! See for yourselves what happened today!

I have gone up and helped priests as they prostrate themselves before the cross sand have trouble getting up during Good Friday.

If he doesn’t that is not for physical reasons, he has some ‘splaining to do

If you believe the Eucharist is God then your probably Catholic. If your Catholic you believe the Holy Spirit chooses the Pope. I’m going to trust the Holy Spirit on this one.

I'm Man #2 who never kneels. I can't, I have asked in prayer to do so, I am not being given any relief, I'll never get a hip operation, surgery is permanent, so I get out of the way of anyone, and I bow as profoundly as I can during the Consecration.
 
I am a sinner like the tax collector who can only bow his head during the Pater Noster and ask my Blessed Lord please to excuse me in view of His infinite merits.
 
I once sat behind a woman in a Trad veil at the old Oak Park Sacramento parish of the Immaculate Conception, in a predecessor to the FSSP mass, at that time called Ecclesia Dei. The woman was glaring around at any slackers who might be neglecting the proper canonical response motions. I don't think she found any, in any case, the other Mass attendees would appear not to have noticed the lady's playing the soul cop, they were all engaged in participatio actuosa (Pope St. Piux X, Tra le Solicitudini, St. Ceclia's Day 1903).

I am not sure that the Holy Spirit was aware that there was an election. After all the last pope hasn’t checked in yet.

Just a theory.

Bergoglio is just another mistake in a long line of errors subsequent to Vatican II. Only those who are confused fail to understand that an entirely new religion was established.

This Red Pope, however, takes the prize. In October Bergoglio telephoned a woman in Argentina who was living in adultery and told her she could receive communion even though her parish priest had told her she could not.

His apparent buffoonery seems like bad news to many, but to others it is actually good news. Some people may wake up to the impossibility of ‘saving’ Vatican II, and of working within the system.

It is a delusion to believe that continued attempts to put a pretty face on Vatican II will somehow make it compatible with Catholic teaching and history.

I do not believe, as a Catholic, the Holy Spirit chooses the Pope.

I believe, instead, the Holy Spirit protects the Church through the Pope. Which may include striking him down with a lightning bolt if need be. Or anathematizing him posthumously at an Ecumenical Council (which actually happened to Honorius).

This pope may not even believe in Jesus.

Maybe he’s like ObaMao and just doesn’t wish to recognize a higher power.

That’s a rather brilliant theory. I have several Benedict books and pamphlets that I page through occasionally. Helps me mind game myself into believing he’s still the Pope.

They supercatholics have their knives out for Francis, that’s for sure. I think his comments that they need to weed out the neurotic supercatholics from the seminaries really struck a nerve.

Humility is shown in the heart and not by the knees.

Jesus knelt to wash his apostles feet.

Jesus knelt in the Garden of Gethsemane.

If anyone here has joint pains like this TRY TURMERIC!!!

it worked wonders for me - you know you are getting enough when you start to crave PEPPER on your food instead of salt.

Be sure to eat Jello too.

I had such pain I could not lift my arms, and started to get a blinding shooting pain in my hip joint that felt like what the doctors call “bone on bone” (no cartilage left

Turmeric, jello, and stop eating bread (bread [gluten allergy] is inflammatory if you have problems with it)

Result is 100% pain gone

(P.S. the label says one capsule per day, take 3 or 4 per day for a week when you start it)
