The Synod on the Amazon, another orchestrated sham, is proving to be just as subversive as the worst predictions assumed. As LifeSiteNews reports, on its first working day the Synods chairman, Cardinal Clàudio Hummes, made it quite clear that womens ministries and married priests will be front and center in the proceedings.
As if we didnt know.
In his opening address to the Synod, Pope Francis delivered the now standard narrative that his synods are oracles of the Holy Ghost that convey the latest gnosis for the next ruinous innovation of the Church. Allow me to translate Francis remarks on the matter into plain English:
Translation: Synod means bowing to the will of the Pope and the Synods stage-managers.
Translation: If the Synod Fathers dont go along with what Francis and his collaborators have planned, they are sinful people who defy the will of God.
Translation: The Instrumentum Laboris is just the beginning of the proceedings whose outcome is already determined. Something even worse is in the works.
Translation: And now we will proceed according to the will of Francis, who has already determined what the Synod will decide.
Translation: No one must resist the outcome that Francis and his collaborators have planned and will stage-manage from start to finish: lady ministers and married priests.
What is so remarkable is that Francis has no compunction about declaring that his Modernist sham of a synod is a work of the Holy Ghost when he has to know that no one, not even its proponents, seriously believes this and that even to suggest such a thing involves a presumption that borders on blasphemy.
The invocation of the Holy Ghost in order to cloak Modernist propaganda with the appearance of divine approbation is shameless ecclesiastical demagoguery on the order of a mere politicians invocation of Gods blessing on a nation that legalizes abortion and wages unjust wars.
They have no shame. But then, they have no credibility either. All over the world, the faithful know that this Synod is a sham and a threat to the integrity of the Faith. What these demagogues do have, however, is the levers of ecclesiastical power in their hands. God only knows what damage they will be allowed to inflict before the apostasy that begins at the top is ended and the worst crisis in the Churchs history is reversed.
Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!

Talking this way about the Holy Spirit... like he’s giving dictation, is that usual?
I'm not an expert or an academic historian, but I have taken a lively interest of Catholic history for decades, and have taught it as part of my service as a parish catechist. And I will tell you now, that as far as I know, this pontificate is without parallel. It is uniquely disastrous. Peter's boat is being piloted by a guy who is drilling holes in the hull and inserting sticks of dynamite. Pope Francis is a dedicated foe of Catholic faith and morals.
The "bad popes" of the past --- there have been, by my estimate, about 8 or 9 quite bad ones --- were mostly sunk in their own personal vice, and did not mess with doctrine because it frankly didn't interest them. They were willing to repeat all the right words, anyway, while they were pursuing their courtesans, making their illegitimate sons Cardinals, or besieging cities in southern France.
They may have lived infidelity, but they didn't TEACH infidelity as if it was required by the Ten Commandments.
This one we've got here is different.
” Yet now we have a lot of conservative Catholics who spend their time criticizing the current pope.”
Because it appears he is not Catholic. When it is The Church vs. the pope we will side with the former. When it is pagan babble vs Church doctrine we will side with the latter.
Two or three years and then I'll be off to my Father's house.
Look, I wrote an encyclical, true enough, it was a big job, and an Apostolic Exhortation, I´m permanently making statements, giving homilies; that´s teaching. That´s what I think, not what the media say that I think. Check it out, it´s very clear. Evangelii Gaudium is very clear.
The synod journey culminates in listening to the Bishop of Rome, (who is) called to speak authoritatively as the Pastor and Teacher of all Christians,'"
The Head of the Holy Catholic Church is Our Lord Jesus Christ, we follow Him. Ill advised actions by any human being may be justly criticized, Saint Catherine wrote such a letter to Pope Gregory. The job of the pope is to conserve the teachings of Christ, not to negate, ignore or innovate according to his own will.
Dictator Pope strikes again.
**When it is The Church vs. the pope we will side with the former. When it is pagan babble vs Church doctrine we will side with the latter.**
AMEN!
The Church will win.
Pray your Rosaries in imitation of Lepanto.
Harsh. As usual.
Pagan babble, or “Synodal Twaddle”.
Stop telling members they are a Catholic when they are not.
Respect decisions made by other posters.
I removed your post 12 for being personal and mind reading.
Now you are doing it again.
Do not post to posters that have been taken off of the thread because they are not Catholics.
All: Do not post to those that you have had removed for breaking the caucus guidelines.
If you wish to communicate on the thread with those that have been removed, invite them back in.
It’s not fair to post to those that can not answer.
