Grech co-authored with Archbishop Charles Scicluna of Malta the notorious Maltese bishops’ pastoral guidelines on Amoris Laetitia, which gave access to Holy Communion to divorced and civilly “remarried” Catholics, living in sin, who “with an informed and enlightened conscience ... acknowledge and believe that he or she are at peace with God.” These guidelines were republished by the official Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano.
In 2017, Grech “attacked a group of Maltese faithful Catholics” after it defended “real marriage against ‘unnatural’ homosexual ‘marriage’” in a full-page ad in a widely read paper. The bishop called the ad “propaganda.” He has also accused opponents of these guidelines of having “attitudes” that “annihilate all hope in people,” calling them “prophets of doom.”

Is the Pope Catholic?..........................
Talk about ‘packing the court.’
It seems to me you dont get promoted to cardinal unless you are part of the mafia. Sincere Christian priests can be sent out to local parishes but they dont get into the upper ranks.
Thats what it looks like.
RE: It seems to me you dont get promoted to cardinal unless you are part of the mafia.
There are still Cardinals who get appointed and are faithful to traditional doctrine. I know the newly appointed Filipino cardinal, Jose Fuerte Advincula will not be wishy washy on the issues of abortion and the sanctity of marriage.
I’ve seen his sermons on these subject and they sound solid.
Yes Frankie is filling the Vatican with fellow travelers so when hes gone it will more of the same.
Modernity says, “You are living in our world. Bow to us.” The Pope says, “Of course.” So Much for the “deposit of faith” — it was deposited into the trash can of history.
The Catholic Church is finished. Francis put a stake in its heart. He started by slamming anyone who beleived in the Catholic teachin on faith and morals as 'rigid' and rejecting them from positions of authority at every level.
Today, under Francis, what is the difference between the Catholic church and a secular socially left-wing PAC? Certainly when the Pope rejects traditional moral teachings and rejects the concept that there is one Universal truth and instead says all religious tradtions are equally valid (especially Islam) it's no longer a religious organizations, cool vestments and high end real estate notwithstanding.
No doubt in my mind that Benedicts retirement was a coup by the leftists in the C of C
Pope Francis appoints 13 new cardinals, some of whom are pro-LGBT, back communion for adulterers

Well, why not? Catholicism hasn’t quite been made irrelevant enough by it’s leadership yet. Let’s continue to make it indistinguishable from modern secularism in virtually every way!
Papa Chico is a heretic.

The pope is by definition catholic and the leader of the Roman catholic church. The question is how long will any remaining Christians in the catholic church remain in the apostate organization.
Cardinal stacking?
The pope is there to fundamentally change the Catholic Church, in a similar manner to how obama planned to destroy our country.
I dont need the Pope to get to Heaven I just need Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. This Communist Pope, this antiPope is irrelevant.
Under this pope, we can expect LGBT priests and bishops.
I am not Catholic-—but this Pope seems out of step. I don’t trust him one little bit.
