It has already happened in just about every mainline Protestant sect.

Hell, we now have the U.S. government arresting Christians for being Christian, that split may take down the whole United States.

And should if it doesn’t get reversed.

IF the current nonsense had been nipped in the bud 60 years ago we wouldn’t see the collapse of the western Church due to the heresies that have been allowed to fester and mature over time.

Meanwhile, back at Francis’ ecumenical ranch:

“In 2017, Lutheran and Catholic Christians commemorate together the five hundredth anniversary of the Reformation,” Pope Francis.

We need it. The split, that is.

The Church has long been bloated with non-believers, often clerics in positions of authority, who are essentially functional agnostics. They need to be gone. They can embrace the zeitgeist, receive the acclaim of the western, secular elites and bask in the adulation of the media but the Church must be purified. The "big tent" must be folded and put away for good. Time to turn our backs on the sodomites, the lavender mafia, the New Age nuns who are counting carbon credits.

The Church must become smaller, more humble, poorer and more evangelical. It must suffer persecution and become once again a sign of contradiction, rather than a sign of compromise.

Farewell Cupich, farewell Bernardin's fellow travelers, farewell the back-slapping, glad-handing Dolan, farewell you contracepting, aborting, sodomizing, self-absorbed, genital-obsessed pagans.

The split can't come soon enough.

You know their grip has been lost when 99.9% of the population never heard of “the CDF.” And even fewer care.
