ROME, April 3, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) — Cardinal Raymond Burke, Bishop Athanasius Schneider, and Cardinal Joseph Zen are among the key speakers at a conference in Rome this Saturday, April 7, aimed at resolving the great confusion in the Church today.

The conference will be themed “Catholic Church: Where are you heading?,” and is being organized by an Italian association called “The Friends of Cardinal Caffarra.”

Its subtitle, “Only a blind man can deny that there is great confusion in the Church,” is taken from comments Cardinal Caffarra made in an interview with the Italian newspaper Il Foglio in January 2017.

A list of speakers and full program for the event were released today.

The meeting will open with prayer at 2:30 p.m. in the chapel of ‘The Church Village’ conference center in Rome.

German Cardinal Walter Brandmüller will open the conference at 3:00 p.m. with a presentation on Blessed John Henry Newman’s 1859 essay ‘On Consulting the Faithful in Matters of Doctrine.’

Cardinal Raymond Burke will then deliver an address on ‘The limits of papal authority in the doctrine of the Church.’ Bishop Athanasius Schneider, one of three Kazakh bishops to issue a Profession of the immutable truths about sacramental marriage in January, will discuss ‘The Apostolic See of Rome as the cathedra veritatis [seat of truth].’

Cardinal Joseph Zen, bishop emeritus of Hong Kong, will also deliver a video-message on ‘The Church today in China.’

There isn’t any confusion in the Church lately.
(Is the pope Catholic? Does a bear Shiite in the woods?)

The "confusion" is short for "infiltration by communists and their sympathizers."

When I was a kid, I remember the bizarre video of Nikita Khruschev pounding his desk in the UN in 1960.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4JhyHz3M5U

His famous quote from those years (1956) was, "We will bury you." We won the cold war, but they are still getting closer to burying our way of life, aided by our infiltrated news media, schools, businesses, entertainment, political parties, and churches.

So now they are getting Confucius into the act?

See what happens when the Pope goes wobbly?

What they call “confusion” is a deliberate attempt to destroy the Catholic faith from within by Pope Francis and an organized conspiracy of evil.

The confusion will only be resolved until the next time Bergoglio opens his mouth.
