Francis wants to „study“ Communion for Protestants, MarcoTossatti.com (August 4) writes.
However, Protestants don’t fulfil the two prerequisits for receiving Communion, i.e. going to confession and believing in transsubstantiation.
Rumours say that Francis instructed the Secretary of the Liturgy Congregation, Archbishop Vittorio Francesco Viola, a former lecturer at the anti-Catholic Liturgical Institute of Sant'Anselmo, Rome, to organise a „confidential commission“ in September, and to report directly within only two months to Francis.
In defiance of all pretended 'synodality', this method which Francis likes is bypassing the Cardinals, bishops, and all bodies in charge to deal with specific issues.
„In Germany there have already been leaps forward by some bishops in this field in the past,“ Tossatti writes. In reality, Protestant Communion has been de facto imposed on all German dioceses for over fourty years with the knowledge of Rome to the point that a priest refusing to participate in this abuse would be fired.

Who elected him Pope?
One world religion.
I am not Roman Catholic but I fail to see anything good in ‘RC Light’ and I’m not talking about a soda! As a Protestant with ancestral roots in the English Civil War and even back to the Lollards, it grieves me to see my fellow Christians in such a turmoil!
A bunch of queers in funny hats.
Thank you! Believe me, we’re all suffering but I think the only good thing is that those who are believers are beginning to stand up and fight for the Faith. God is bringing something good out of this.
We all know by now the German church is irretrievably screwed up.
A real Protestant wouldnt even want to participate in the Roman mass.
What’s a “real protestant”?
A real Protestant knows why they aren’t a Catholic.
Salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.
Substitutionary atonement once and for all at the Cross.
Sounds the same as a heretic.
