'Cardinal Pell is fully justified in reminding the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith of its responsibility to safeguard the truth of the faith and the unity of the Church of Christ in the authority of the Successor of Peter against the open heresy of German Synodalism.'

VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Cardinal Gerhard Müller has endorsed Cardinal George Pell’s recent call upon the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) to “reprimand” the German bishops for their “rejection of the Catholic Church’s teaching on sexual ethics.” “Cardinal Pell,” the German cardinal wrote, “is fully justified in reminding the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith of its responsibility to safeguard the truth of the faith and the unity of the Church of Christ in the authority of the Successor of Peter against the open heresy of German Synodalism.”

Cardinal Müller gave LifeSiteNews a statement (full text below) that he had previously shared with the German newspaper Die Tagespost. While Cardinal Pell included Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich in his statement, Cardinal Müller concentrated on the heresies of the German bishops.

As LifeSiteNews reported, on March 15 Cardinal Pell issued a statement in which he asked the CDF to “intervene and pronounce judgement” on Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich and Bishop Georg Bätzing for their “wholesale and explicit rejection of the Catholic Church’s teaching on sexual ethics.”

Its going to be a really contentious moment in Church politics in a few years.

What we’ve seen is nothing compared to what is coming. I’m talking Great Schism level problems, or period of Three pretender popes.

“We might experience pretender Popes.”

Might?

After this pachamama-worshiping McCarrick enabler, what would a pretender pope look like?
