Pope Leo XIV opened his second extraordinary consistory of cardinals on Friday in which he insisted that the Lord is leading the Church via “synodality” so that she can “grow in communion,” according to a report by Vatican journalist Edward Pentin.
The Pontiff encouraged the 178 cardinals to “engage wholeheartedly” in a synodal, working group structure, adding that he was “well aware that, for many of us, this is not the usual way of conducting a consistory,” Pentin said in his EWTN News report.
“I count on you to help me discern what the Spirit is saying to the Church today. I need your support: strong, explicit, and public,” Leo said in his opening remarks on Friday. “I need to feel sustained by you as brothers.”
“The pope’s comments came after some cardinals had expressed apprehensions about the consistory using a ‘synodal’ round-table format for a second time — a structure they felt was ‘very controlled’ when used at the first consistory last January, and left them with a sense that key decisions and framing had been set in advance,” Pentin noted.
The gathering in the Pope Paul VI Hall that began Friday and ends Saturday evening, will have focused on four themes, led by Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś, archbishop of Kraków; Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith; Cardinal Stephen Brislin, archbishop of Johannesburg; and Cardinal Mario Grech, Secretary General of the Synod of Bishops.
Notably, these four cardinals assigned to deliver the introductory addresses and meditations for the consistory sessions had been closely aligned with Pope Francis and have a record of supporting heterodox positions.
Earlier this week, the Italian blog Messainlatino characterized the organization of the consistory as the “synodalist ‘Bergoglio method’” whereby the cardinals are “divided into first‑class and second‑class tables,” with a “secretary‑spokesperson for each group, and extremely limited time for interventions in the assembly.”
“The organizational model of the upcoming consistory produces an appearance of broad participation and deliberative consensus, yet its structure significantly limits the conditions for genuine collective discernment,” LifeSiteNews’ Gaetano Masciullo wrote in advance of the Vatican gathering. “The fragmentation into small groups, each with strict time constraints and mediated through designated coordinators, shifts the center of gravity away from open, continuous debate in the full assembly toward pre-filtered and procedurally standardized exchanges.”
“In such a framework, the real content of discussion may be more easily condensed, selected, and reformulated before it reaches the plenary level, where only brief summaries are presented without being subject to full argumentation,” Musciullo said.
“These elements generate a procedural image of synodality – officially characterized by listening, participation, and shared discernment – while in practice they centralize control over framing, synthesis, and final reporting,” Musciullo said. “The result is a carefully managed consultative mechanism in which consensus is structurally pre-shaped rather than freely formed through open confrontation of positions.”
He wants the bishops to nod to sin.
I have seen this approach used in business and other churches. It gives the appearance of discovering solutions but in reality the results have been pre-determined.
In the Synodal "church", we "have moved on" from the Social Reign of Christ the King to a synodal "civilization of love".
Leo- “I count on you to help me discern what the Spirit is saying to the Church today.” Used to promote a type of governance always condemned by the Church
AND
SSPX proclamation of Faith-
Article 72:
“I therefore reject every claim to invoke the Holy Ghost in order to justify doctrinal adaptations that break with Tradition, moral reversals, or synodal procedures by which what the Church has received from God is put in question. The Spirit of truth cannot today inspire the contrary of what He inspired yesterday. He does not invite the Church to listen to the world in order to receive its aspirations from it; on the contrary, He impels her to teach the world, to convert it, and to sanctify it. His work consists neither in stirring up anarchic inspirations, nor in encouraging doctrinal creativity, nor in grounding spiritual life upon the search for extraordinary charismatic phenomena; it consists in guiding souls by enlightening their faith and defending them against their spiritual enemies, in order to complete in them the work of their salvation and to lead them into the light of eternity.”
Night and Day difference between Modernism and Catholicism.
St Athanasius- “For they hold the places, but you the Apostolic Faith. They are, it is true, in the places, but outside of the true Faith; while you are outside the places indeed, but the Faith, within you.”
Catholic doctrine and moral truths turned upside down. “Lived experience” rules. Catholic teaching the result of opinion polls.
Heaven help us all. May God intervene to lift the irrational fog and restore order before it’s too late. This ‘synodality’ thing is straight from hell.
Shove your synodality up your loose gay a-hole, po-po.
You’ve lost Cardinal Mueller, ebby
“”He wants the bishops to nod to sin.””

It’s all about control. Control of debate/discussion, control and reframing of opinions, and control of what ‘gets out’ to the public. Kinda like how Satan would do it if he were in charge. Hmmmm....
“These elements generate a procedural image of synodality – officially characterized by listening, participation, and shared discernment – while in practice they centralize control over framing, synthesis, and final reporting,” Musciullo said. “The result is a carefully managed consultative mechanism in which consensus is structurally pre-shaped rather than freely formed through open confrontation of positions.”
How come parishioners can’t vote if they want alter rails or not, why does one person decide it?
Yesterday, you lost a friend of the Latin Mass, ebby in Cardinal Mueller. Today, Pope Leo is begging you sspxers, “I plead with you and ask you with all my heart: please turn back!’ the Pontiff wrote.”
The message is clear, ebby. STOP!
To others, especially the sspxers, please be aware of what is occurring. The sspx is leading you to separation from the Catholic Church and probable excommunications. ebby’s cartoon network of articles always support this schism. Please don’t follow ebby/cartoon network.
