I dont think you have to be brilliant to see that the media has, for months, been trying to hijack this Synod, said Cardinal Raymond Burke, prefect for the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura the office which, among other things, handles annulment cases in the Church. In particular, he told CNA in a recent interview, the media has been presenting Pope Francis as being in favor of allowing Holy Communion to be distributed to those who are divorced and remarried, and other such propositions, even though this is not the case. The danger, Cardinal Burke continued, is that the media has created a situation in which people expect that there are going to be these major changes which would, in fact, constitute a change in Church teaching, which is impossible. Thats why its very important for those who are in charge to be very clear, he said. Related threads:

It simply makes no sense to talk about mercy which doesnt respect truth. How can that be merciful? Cardinal Burke Now this is a quote worth stealing. It can be used in all sorts of discussions where it will drive liberals crazy.
A question for the Catholics out there. How does the church handle adultery? Is the wronged partner released from the marriage and free to remarry or does the church hold them still married.

Thank God at least some in the Vatican understand the MSM and what they’re up to.
Sure wish the Republican Party had somebody like that.

**All things considered, Cardinal Burke told CNA that the Synod on the Family can be a good thing, as long as its firmly grounded in the Churchs doctrine and discipline regarding marriage. But it cannot simply be a kind of sentimental or personal approach that doesnt respect the objective reality of marriage.
To the degree that all of it is solidly grounded in the Churchs teaching and her discipline, I believe it will be very positive, he said.**
May God render it so.

That would be former prefect for the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura.
And isn't it interesting...I did not know that that office handles annulments. Interesting, indeed.
Despite his saying that the media been trying to hijack the Synod, he is on record for criticizing Kasper's comments (which were reported by this same meany media).
