“Without liturgical reform there is no reform of the Church,” the Pope said.

...

...that does not feel pain for the division between Christians, who does not tremble with the anxiety of announcing Christ to the people, is a sick Church, and these are the symptoms,” the Holy Father emphasized in his address.

Jorge the Hyporcrite has never has announced Christ to the non-Christians; he actually hides his pectoral cross when he's in their presence. And as far as pain for the division between Christians he discouraged the evangelical "bishop", Tony Palmer, from converting to Catholicism; and he has encouraged Lutherans to receive Holy Communion at Catholic Masses without them converting.

A return to ‘62, or ‘56 or ‘49 books IS the reform.

The Liturgy is the Deposit of Faith... that Bishop Strickland was removed for defending. The Bridegroom doesn’t change... why must His Bride?

Gets it right referencing us as “the people of G-d”.

We’re certainly not the people of this Commie Papa.

Frankie wants to rewrite the Bible? Izzat right?

“I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book.”

- Revelations 22:18

Pope Benedict XVI correctly explained that the liturgy is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, not political thing.
Now Pope Francis flips that and claims the liturgy is a political thing.

ebb tide is correct in noting that the Pope has abandoned his primary charge which is (from the Great Commission - Matt 28:18-20) to ‘go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Sone and the Holy Ghost’.

Pope Francis portrays less a holy man, and more a college frosh pranking the faculty. What a carp.

Reminds me of when Obozo said “fundamental transformation begins today” at his first inauguration.

You don’t “fundamentally transform” or “reform” something you love.

You “fundamentally transform” pr “reform” things you hate.

On a scale of 1 to 10, my Bergoglio fatigue level is now at about a 12.

The only reform the RCC really needs right now is an actual Catholic in the chair of Peter.
