Purge in the Congregation of Divine Worship |
(Vatican) Pope Francis continues to purge the liturgical sensibility of his predecessor, Benedict XVI.
On 5 November it was announced in the daily bulletin of the Holy See that Pope Francis had appointed a new Under-Secretary for the Congregation for Divine Worship. What was not there is that the two other undersecretaries were also dismissed. The Congregation has had no Cardinal Prefect since the beginning of October, after Pope Francis sent back the previous head of the dicastery, Cardinal Antonio Cañizares as archbishop of Valencia in Spain. Now the number two of the Congregation has been exchanged and thus within a month, the entire leadership.
Previous Undersecretaries Have Learned of their Ouster from the Bulletin
The previous Undersecretaries, the Marist Father Anthony Ward and Msgr. Juan Miguel Ferrer-Grenesche had learned from the publication of the bulletin that they were not re-elected. The dismissal was not preceded by a conversation with the Pope, nor they were previously informed in other ways about it. Msgr. Ferrer is a priest of the Archdiocese of Toledo, whose Vicar he was. Cardinal Cañizares, the former Archbishop of Toledo, brought him to Rome in 2009.
Msgr. Ferrer is an acknowledged expert in the Mozarabic rite, those Visigothic rite, which was celebrated in Spain before the introduction of the Roman rite and which has been preserved during the Spanish rule in underground and still maintained in some places, including Toledo and Salamanca. Msgr. Ferrer is distinguished by a special liturgical sensibility and a close relationship to the Old Rite.
New Undersecretary a "Staunch Bugninist"
The bulletin from Wednesday announced the appointment of the new undersecretary, Monfortian Father Corrado Maggioni. As Pope Francis seems to be the liturgical antipode to Pope Benedict XVI., the same for Father Maggioni seems similarly in comparison to his recently deposed predecessors.
The Montfortian is a "confident Bugninist" as Riposte Catholic reports and a "great friend of Msgr. Piero Marini", the papal master of ceremonies of John Paul II. Annibale Bugnini (1912-1982) was largely responsible for the development and implementation of the liturgical reform of 1969/1970.
At the beginning of his pontificate, Francis dismissed all of Benedict XVI's liturgically related consultants in the Office of papal ceremonies. From the staff of Benedict XVI. who performed ceremonies according to the "reform of the reform", only the papal master of ceremonies, Msgr. Guido Marini is left. One of the members appointed by Pope Francis as a consultant was Father Maggioni.
Four Ratzingerians Dismissed in One Month
With Msgr. Miguel Ferrer falling within a few days, another head of the Ratzingerian Vatican has fallen, already replaced by Pope Francis on October 8, Msgr. Celso Morga Iruzubieta as secretary of the Congregation for the Clergy and Msgr. Alberto Gonzalez Chaves as office manager of the Congregation for Bishops. Taking into account Cardinal Cañizares as the highest-ranking dismissed figure, four senior Ratzingerians were removed last month. Including the full leadership of the Congregation for the Clergy and the Congregation for Divine Worship, the staff in those two congregations most clearly showed the signature of Benedict XVI.

ReplyDeletebergoglio is an evil, evil, evil man.
Do you no longer believe that the Holy Spirit guides the Church? That the Holy Spirit was not involved in the election? How can you call yourself Catholic?
DeleteThe Holy Spirit guides the Church, there have been many bad popes, like this one, yet the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church survives. You should join us....
DeleteAt the age of fifteen, Marozia became the mistress of Theophylact's cousin Pope Sergius III, whom she knew when he was bishop of Portus.
DeleteThe bastard son, the grandson, the great grandson, and two great great grandsons of Marozia were seated in the Chair of St. Peter. Pope John XIII was her nephew, the offspring of her younger sister Theodora.
So ugh... was the Holy Ghost involved in the election of these popes? Serious question.
Holy Ghost or no. Who are you to judge?
DeleteThe Holy Spirit gives council to the conclave, however, men have free will and can ignore Him.
DeleteThe Holy Ghost does NOT choose the pope. He confirms the choice and protects the pope from heretical ex cathedra pronouncements. He offers the graces of state to a valid pope, which the pope is free to accept or reject. That is all. There have been some manifestly bad men in the papacy, and probably a good many more who were discrete in their evil.
DeleteCome on people. This was an obvious troll. Don't feed the trolls.
DeleteHe's trying very hard, every cunning ways but never be successful destroying the Church of Christ. All the good bishops should get together to pull him down. That 's only way to save the Church and save a lot, a lot of souls.
DeleteHello...there is a difference between a sinner pope and a manifestly heretical pope which we now have. It is blasphemy to blame the mess in Rome on the Holy Ghost.
DeleteAgreed
DeleteSo much for the much-vaunted 'I'm only Bishop of Rome' collegiality. Nothing is allowed to get in the way of his ruthless determination to force through his personal agenda of 'reform'.
ReplyDeleteAre we observing some of the finishing touches of the protestant artwork of Vatican II? Are these some of the last nails in the coffin of what they think is the death of The 2000 year old (but ever more beautiful) Holy Roman Catholic Church?
ReplyDeleteSo what?. The Pope is the boss and therefore he has the right to work with the staff he likes. Just like any other CEO does in a new job. Most of the Curia is still Ratzinger´s in fact.
ReplyDeleteThey're just angry because Francis, having a scientific education, is able to follow ideas (i.e. Vatican II) to their logical conclusion. People were blinded by Benedict's shinny red shoes and traditional papal attire, so when he said or did something manifestly anti-Catholic (e.g. Assisi meetings, hybrid Mass, etc.) they just ignored it because he wore sheep's clothing. Now that the Catholic magpies aren't distracted by a giant gold crucifix, they're actually paying attention to what the pope is saying and are starting to realize that something isn't right with the Church.
DeleteBut don't worry, Vatican II was traditional. John XXIII, Paul VI, and John Paul II were all saints. Also, Benedict XVI is a future doctor of the Church. Francis is just an anomaly who misinterprets Vatican II, him and the 99.67% of bishops and 99.997% of seminary professors since Vatican II. It's the council of the media I tells ya!
Now lets all stop worrying and eat some strawberry ice cream.
The Pope is neither a Boss nor a CEO. Only an unchurched or unhinged pagan would make such a statement.
DeleteA scientific education? For real? He's a Jesuit. He's not Einstein.
Delete"Most of the Curia is still Ratzinger´s in fact."
DeleteSoon, soon.
The pope is an evil man? How do you still call yourself Catholic? Do we not trust that God has a bigger plan than your opinion? We might not like everything about the Church but get a grip - and trust in God!
ReplyDeleteThere have never been evil pope's before?
DeleteDear Anonymous,
DeleteAre you a recent convert?
The Catholic Church is not a cult like Scientology or Heavens Gate. The pope IS NOT a god-man, the pope is not automatically a saint that cannot commit a sin. There have been many, many, popes who have committed mortal sins and which were later condemned for teaching error of heresy. Many popes have been elected because of the sin of simony. The Holy Ghost cannot inspire mortal sin like simony.
The Vatican has art works of popes and abbots being tortured in hell. Dante's Inferno speaks of evil popes in hell. Many popes have committed simony and sexual sins. Please do some research on the history of the papacy, especially the Saeculum Obscurum.
Pope Julius II (1503–1513) had three illegitimate daughters. There is a litany of popes who used their papal authority to advance certain nations, family members, and politicians in worldly affairs. Certain popes created trade climates that favored Italian states over German states, they would excommunicate any ruler (thus making their land free for grabs) that went against them economically. Dante said it best; the Papacy is for taking care of peoples spiritual needs and the Empire is for creating prosperity and law and order, their roles should never be mixed up like they were for many years (Emperors appointing bishops, popes favoring nations for economic reasons, etc.)
To say that it is impossible for a pope to be evil goes against Catholic doctrine on the papacy and goes against the written record of history. St. Paul himself rebuked St. Peter in the book of Acts.

DeleteWHY... I am just trying to determine which 'Anonymous' is which.. There seem to be several. I cant tell which one is responding . I counted 12 above . Surely they can be asked to differentiate .....
DeleteThis is begining to look like an enemies list. If I am wrong please correct me.
ReplyDeleteProbably. B16 tolerated even people who hated him personally in positions of authority. Sure, he might have promoted them to symbolic positions, but he always seemed to have a lot of respect for people and tried to keep them in the game, unless they were off the reservation, like a number of bishops, about two a month, who were being dismissed for various reasons, including sexual impropriety.
DeleteNone of these foolish attempts by Francis and his Freemason friends attempting to wreck the Church are surprising at this point. They are probably trying to out-do their shameful Freemason idol Bugini in showing their hatred of Traditional Catholicism.
ReplyDeleteLooks like he is one of their agents. All he has done so far is to divide, confuse and undermine the Church. We're so grateful to God for sending us many good bishops who are very brave standing up against liberal, modern and heretical Pope.
DeleteSince I caught the picture of Pope Francis washing feet of female inmates on Holy Thursday, I shivered and knew that this one must be the one of St. Francis' prophecy-the destroyer. God saves the Church.

ReplyDelete666....The truth will be revealed at Temple Mount on September 13th, 2016 after he has been on his throne for 3 1/2 years.
ReplyDelete...well, now that's interesting...
DeleteMr. Auricchia supposedly has received messages from Our Lady, Jesus, St. Michael, Padre Pio and other Saints, from 1990 to 2010. The church has not ruled on it, and its at your discretion to believe or not. One interesting phenomena about his messages is the four of his prophesies have come to pass.
ReplyDeleteAvola, ITALY May 30, 2010 Our Lady to Giuseppe Auricchia:
" My children, you walk on this bridge I have pointed out , to share with us the joy and your era of peace on earth . Evil will be cast out and the victory of My Son will set you free , but you must pray for guidance , because you will soon see the schism of My Church . My faithful remnant follows the current Pope , Benedict XVI, who they want to eliminate . Continue to follow him and remain faithful to Him and to the teaching of my church , established by the Apostles. Do not be fooled by the apostasy and heresy. I tell you that the next Pope will be the impostor and the evil forces behind this schism. My children , be prepared , so you can follow those priests loyal to the Pope and the Church's teaching . Preserve the saints missals and books of the old Mass , because the apostates will change the dramatic words ..
With so many Catholics not attending Mass, not receiving Christ in the Eucharist, not fasting or doing any mortification, living their lives according to the world instead of what God has told us in the Gospel, maybe the Holy Spirit is whispering to the world via the actions of Pope Francis, you reap what you sow. If Catholics do not like what they see in Pope Francis, this is the time to get back on your knees and start to pray (start with the Holy Rosary as Our Lady will not leave us).
