The Radical Traditionalists and Francis Derangement Syndrome
The RadTrad Heresy grows exponentially with its Jansenistic emphasis on the pernicious nature of the human spirit, its legalism, its deep suspicion of human sexuality, and its hatred of the Pope. It has chosen as its spokespersons the three musketeers of clericalism: Cardinal Raymond Burke, Archbishop Vigano, and Bishop Athanasius Schneiderall three of whom criticize the Pope non-stop to the point of opposing him openly. The RadTrads Francis Derangement Syndrome is worth exploring and the insights we glean will tell us why Francis is the Pope we need for our times.
The growth of the RadTrad Heresy runs parallel to the focus of Francis pontificate. Remember the dour man from Argentina elected to the papacy? He was not known as a smiling ecclesiastic and, in fact, often appeared as a typical frowning cleric. That all changed once he took the name of Francis. Suddenly as Pope, he seemed to drop years of age and become a laughing, smiling pontiff with a focus on mercy not judgment. Francis Derangement Syndrome began the day he said, Who am I to judge? in answer to a question on homosexuality. The opposition took shape in the Year of Mercy 2016, when the pontiff declared that the Church would emphasize mercy over judgment.

This reads exactly like the pro-Obama screeds or the pro-Clinton screeds about nobody could see how great he was because there were no wars or conflict he could solve (hint -there were plenty but he screwed them all up so CNN wouldn’t talk about them)
Same here - the press is catching wind that the Pope is controversial so they’re doing a CYA here saying “sure - but it’s what we need right now”
Yeah...Maybe a few who are head injury victims. He celebrates islam, champions communism, thinks carbon is a new sin, and that saying that men doing it up the wazzoo is sinful is just like Hitler.

No to mention him recently venerating some pagan idols from South America.
What a joke.
No comments other than that needed.
Pope Obamahole is doing a good job of completing the desecration started by the gay priests.
I dunno. I just stick to what the scriptures say about the Pope. Makes it easier.
Did Burke vote for him?
Pope Francis seems more like a secular one world globalist social justice warrior then anything. I would think the Popes #1 duty would be to sprad the Word of God!
Words and deeds, Frank.
I must say your faith has given you grace and patience.The world Gave us a Marxist Pope who is hollowing out our church’s core. He has filled the Vatican with fellow travelers who believe my car’s air conditioner is a bigger affront to the Lord then the murder of unborn children.
Exactly!
Title should have [Barf Alert] at the end.
I just realized something.
Back in the 60’s and probably earlier, the Jesuits and an order of nuns from Latin America were openly supporting Communist terrorists.
Now we are reaping the results of the church not stopping them.
I’m a lifelong Catholic-and I want Pope Benedict back-Francis is an open communist who is pushing that secular doctrine instead of being a spiritual leader who follows the teachings of Christ and the Church-I believe he is apostate-even the priest in this tiny rural parish makes it clear every Sunday that he believes this pope has strayed from God and should be removed and replaced by the Cardinals...
I’m a Catholic. And this grinning idiot of a pope ought to thrown in the Tiber. He has single handily embarked on a mission to destroy the church. His accommodation of Muslims and this recent pagan idol worship service at the Vatican were beyond insulting. It was blasphemous.
If there were voting here that would be -1000
I don’t buy that at all. You believe God chooses evil because this Pope advocates for evil...Man installed that pope and although I’m not Catholic, I follow the Church pretty closely and it seems that the process of choosing a pope has gone solely political.
