As predicted by this blog, the dubia questions raised by the Four Cardinals regarding the permission of accepting Adulterers to Holy Communion has been soundly rejected by the Roman Authorities.

Antonio Spadaro., S.J., the Ghost Writer of Francis', and the de facto "pope" of Rome has rejected out of hand and dismissed the Four Cardinals. In this, I am not surprised, indeed, I predicted it. In no way is Francis and his manipulator, Spadaro in any way inconvenienced.

Well, I wouldn’t say it’s been “rejected by Roman authorities.” However, I think this probably is Francis’ response, as usual issued through a mouthpiece: in other words, no response, just an arrogant, sneering dismissal of the question.

I never thought he was going to respond. Granted, the document was just made public a couple of days ago, although it has gone unanswered since it was sent privately in early September.

By releasing it publicly, the Cardinals (who already knew that Francis was going to dismiss them) appealed for the support of the faithful, both laity and lower clergy, and we’ve got to come through. The ball is in our court now.

I strongly agree. But tell me, what do you intend to do?

I mean this not as a snarky personal challenge, but as a search for good ideas.

Yes. This is exactly what needs to happen... but I would even say that the burden falls mostly on the laity, because "lower clergy" aren't going to get to say too much about it without fear of retribution, unless they happen to have a sympathetic bishop.

Well that's been quite obvious since the cardinals have now gone public due to Bergoglio's refusal to respond to their private letter. Finally, we are seeing some public resistance from true Catholics.

"Disqualified" or "unqualified" (to raise the question)?

If it's the former, from what are they "disqualified"? From reading the writings of previous popes and pointing out the discordance with the writings of the current pope? From questioning Jorge the Humble?

Time to get busy and write my bishop, the CDF and Francis himself about the dreck that is Amoris laetitia.

The Pope has "clarified"! Those who don't like what they hear pretend not to hear it!

As much as I can't stand what this man stands for, I can't argue with this.
