But with Cor Orans, the pope has begun to abolish the contemplative orders. In a subsequent weekly audience, he liquidated two millennia of Christian tradition with a few sentences: "Some spiritual masters of the past understood contemplation as opposed to action, and exalted those vocations that flee from the world and its problems to dedicate oneself entirely to prayer...[But] there is no opposition between contemplation and action...This may have come from the influence of some Neoplatonic philosophy that creates this opposition."

The contemplative prayer that Francis disdains is a safeguard against witchcraft. A priestess who "marries" homosexuals at a mock-mass served by transgender acolytes: this is the future of Pope Francis' church.

Trans and queer identities honor a more total and holistic experience of the self and of the divine...Trans-identifying witches deserve more credit in the witchcraft community for transmuting into their most authentic form, and creating a safe and inclusive space for those who are yet to come."

Trans and queer couple do not create ‘those who are yet to come’.

Hence the need for groomers.

Though the above might seem to be taken from a recent papal motu proprio

Ouch!

The Pope is not this stupid. This is a deceptive statement.

The Contemplative Orders do a great deal more than pray (which is very important in its own rite.

The Contemplative Orders also study the faith and teach the next generation of Catholics.

Both of these functions are invaluable to the continuation of the faith.

If Pope Francis has set his sights on the Contemplative Orders I know that he has set his sights on Christ Church and intends its destruction.
