“It is the Holy Spirit who institutionalises the Church, in an alternative, complementary way, because the Holy Spirit provokes disorder through the charisms, but then out of that disorder creates harmony.”

“A tension between disorder and harmony: this is the Church that must come out of the crisis. We have to learn to live in a Church that exists in the tension between harmony and disorder provoked by the Holy Spirit,” Francis said, without explaining how the Holy Spirit can be connected to disorder.

In 2017, Bergoglio stated, “Inside the Holy Trinity they’re all arguing behind closed doors,” Cuda says Francis told them, “but on the outside they give the picture of unity.”

...“certainly nature’s response” ...

This is exactly how Pagans talk. They cannot refer to the Creator, or God, they must speak euphamistically about "nature". I am convinced that Francis is a pagan wrapped in a priestly looking costume.

The Pandemic is natures way of striking back at the pope for accepting sodomy.

Your theory is every bit as viable as his.

Ok. I’ll refrain.

Um, no, your popeness.

It’s from disobeying your Old Testament food rules.

I think it’s nature’s response to the unsanitary animal slaughtering in Chinese wet markets. (US cleaned up its slaughtering practices more than 100 years ago, under GOP President Teddy Roosevelt - responding to the muckraking journalists like Upton Sinclair and his book The Jungle; the Chinese never got the memo, and epidemiologists have been tracing disease outbreaks to China’s gross wet markets for decades)

It’s kind of like if you left your house a pigsty - or if the Vatican let its trash pile up — nature would “respond” in the form of a rat infestation.

That was my first thought as well. There really is something wrong with Francis. I don’t see how anyone can deny that.

Chastisements are FROM GOD, in response to man turning his back on God!

Has he considered that an ACTIVELY HOMOSEXUAL CLERGY and ABORTION are among the behaviors God is about?

Yes, he has considered that.

Which is why he prefers to focus on the imaginary.
