Edd tide: Sanction adultery? Nonsense. Pope Francis' appointee Archbishop Gerhard Muller, the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, published a lengthy (4,500+ word) article in the L'Osservatore Romano which stated that admission to Holy Communion for divorced re-marrieds was out of the question.

Missed that? You can read all about it here. (LINK)

Pope Francis told Archbishop Demetrio Hernandez of Cordoba, Spain that there would be, and could be, no change in the Church's doctrine that a person validly married cannot marry again while their spouse is still living. Missed that? Read it here (LINK)

Cardinal Raymond Burke himself, Lion of Orthodoxy, said Pope Francis does not favor changing this in theory or in practice.(LINK here).

FReepers who stick to the facts and are careful to document them are always appreciated.

Skirting the truth again? It was Francis who first brought up the topic on the plane ride back from Rio.

It was Francis who had the question brought up in the pre-SinNod survey that was distributed worldwide.

It was Francis who praised Kasper’s heretical proposition as “theology on its knees.

After being voted down by the bishops, it was Francis who ordered the proposal to be printed anyway.

It is Francis, who has said the topic will again be brought up at the next SinNod.

And everyone knows how Francis has treated the good Cardinal Burke.

Did you know Francis sided with Kasper in Kasper's little spat with Mueller over Communion to adulterers?

Look at the trend that Francis has started. Aren't you proud of him?

Cardinal Marx: German bishops favor allowing Communion for divorced/remarried

Francis allows Kasper to continue to promote heresy; no reason to think he'll reprimand Marx.

I heard Cardinal Muller speak recently.
A serious but joyful man who has a wonderful sense of humor. He struck me as wholly dedicated to The Truth.
