Hopefully these four Cardinals, who refuse to preach error to please Bergoglio, will be the reason he's removed from the papacy.

I have not read all 250 pages but it seems the only real issue is communion to divorced couples, right? On SSA, SSM, abortion etc he is on the traditional side or am I missing something else.

No, it isn’t. The faithful don’t have to choose sides in these matters until it affects them personally.

I am so glad I left the Church over 30 years ago or this fake Pope would be giving me nightmares.

“The supreme Magisterium in this case is being debased.” Yes, sir. Pope Francis does not understand that the Magisterium has divine assistance and his attempts to dent, scratch and repaint the Magisterium are useless. The original, shiny and straight M. always bounces back.

Sacred Scripture makes it very clear how the faithful should respond if someone attempts to teach a "new gospel" instead of the Gospel handed on to us from the Apostles:

I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel-- not that there is another gospel, but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, If any one is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. (Galatians 1: 6-9).

This strong response against those seeking to "pervert the Gospel" was solemnly defined by Vatican I in terms of being the right and the duty of the Church to proscribe "opinions that are known to be opposed to the doctrine of the faith". (Dei Filius, chap. 4).

The Catholic religion long ago perverted the Gospel by teaching we are justified before God by our faith AND our works. Issues concerning who can or cannot receive the Catholic Eucharist and when they can do so is NOT the "Gospel". The gospel is the GOOD NEWS that Jesus Christ died to save us from our sins and that it is by grace THROUGH faith that we are made righteous and have eternal life.

Martin Luther's dubia with the Catholic Magesterium and the Pope WERE actually about the Gospel and how the selling and granting of indulgences were abused to the detriment of the truth. For that, he was excommunicated and a death warrant was placed on head. How times have changed!
