[Catholic Caucus] After Francis: Roman Diocese Is in Shambles

After a "reform" in the Roman diocese, Francis disempowered the Cardinal Vicar in charge and took over personally, but never assumed his new duties, neglecting his priests and even sowing division among them, writes SilereNonPossum.it (24 February).

- Francis runs the Roman diocese as he did in Buenos Aires: no contact with the clergy, only a few have access to him to bring the latest gossip and to receive directives.

- Gossip is the system Francis uses to govern the Vicariate of Rome.

- The parish priests prefer not to hear about Francis and what is happening in the diocese: "There is a risk of losing one's own faith," a parish priest jokes bitterly.

- The climate created by Bergoglio has become unbearable.

- The Council of Bishops of Rome is completely divided.

- Francis doesn't care about priestly formation, but instead he hurls insults from the Vatican.

- Francis has not ordained any priests since 2021, and this year will be no different.

- On 24 February, the Rector of the Roman Seminary, Monsignor Michele Di Tolve - a faithful servant of the Court - came to the Vatican with the deacons who will be ordained priests in April to meet Francis, but they were not received because Francis "has a fever".

- In reality, Francis was healthy and the "fever" was just an excuse to avoid the meeting.

- The deacons returned home without being given another appointment.

- Francis' approach to priestly formation is to have educators who want priests according to their own image.

- Gone are the days when popes went to the seminary to meet the community and take care of the formation of future priests: "Those were bad and ugly popes, sons of power and of a Church that must disappear", writes SilereNonPossum.it.

“Why is anyone surprised and how in heavans name did the cardinals vote for him???????”
The Pope learned from the best election cheaters in the multiverse: The DemocRAT party.

It was rigged. Bergoglio was talked up as a “reformer” and given a scripted speech on reform to deliver at the pre-conclave. Other papabile candidates were sabotaged. It was all orchestrated.
