[Sir] "It's an unprecedented situation because so far the Pope was not attackable". This is how Cardinal Walter Kasper, president emeritus of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of Christian Unity, comments on the attacks on Pope Francis that are taking place during this period. For years the cardinal worked in the Vatican, as a close collaborator of the Pontiffs. Today, in an interview with Sir on the sidelines of the "Ponti di Pace" meeting in Bologna (which will be published in full tomorrow), he recalls: "One could obviously disagree. But the Pope is the symbol of unity and has authority not only in the Church; it is a moral authority in the world. Destroying this authority as they do, it is completely irresponsible. And for a bishop, a cardinal, it is impossible to do it. I personally think that when you do not agree, sometimes you can even shut up. We must stop this destruction. The majority of Christians who are in favor of the Pope should not be silent in this situation and must say: we are with the Pope, for the Pope. But this is missing. The majority is silent while the others speak loudly and have a network between them. But they have no future because they are a minority, only a minority, that speaks aloud ". The cardinal pauses to speak also of what is emerging in the Church regarding facts and scandals. "The Church - he says - is weakened by these scandals. Abuses are a shame. But they show that the Church is always a Church of sinners. If it were not, I could never belong to this Church as a sinner. Prayer is needed. Praying for the Pope, for the unity of the Church, for our societies. Prayer is a force that we have, it is the greatest strength that God has given us, together with the witness ".
But it was ok for him to criticize Benedict: here, here, as part of the St. Galen Mafia.

What happened to Cardinal Marx's comment "We are not just a subsidiary of Rome"? If Germany doesn't consider itself a subsidiary of Rome why should any other country within Catholicism? The German Church has been consistently the most outrageously disloyal 'subsidiary' of the OHC&A Church going back centuries, so why the indignation that the rest of us have turned against one of their own St. Gallen Mafia idols whose sole agenda has been to support D&R, MSM, Sodomy, the rewriting of the Ten Commandments, stripping the Mass of Ages of worshipful content, inviting mass immigration of Muslim terrorists to ensure Europe entirely losing the Catholic faith, wilfully writing beforehand the Papal Exhortations of Synods to suit their agenda & not on the topics they were called to discuss? Obviously this man & his German cohorts & their Vatican puppets are definitely NOT Catholic.
ReplyDeleteFrancis of Assisi shortly before his death called the members of his order together. He stated that in the future there would be a pontiff who would be "the great destroyer". Until proven otherwise, this description is of the "current occupant".----Teilhard de Chardin wrote of the evolution of religion. Without a doubt, Pope Francis is using his philosophy. Malachi Martin yet a third Jesuit who read the Third Secret gave a blueprint in another of his faction books, "The Jesuits"---This is all about world socialism and the development of a new one world belief system. The acceptance of the gay lifestyle appears to be the "lynch pin". The appointment of radical bishops in his mantra are a tip off.----These individuals are political operatives and not religious leaders. That is why investigations by the federal government of the gay infiltration of the hierarchy is warranted and acceptable. It is well known that the KGB controls the Russian Orthodox Church. It now appears that these radical bishops are involved with some type of world wide socialist organization which is setting up for the anti Christ with someone who is acting as if he is the false prophet.
ReplyDeleteTotally agreed
DeleteThat's pretty powerful weed you're smoking JBQ.
ReplyDelete@Gaybrielle, there’s a lot more evidence that you’re a vindictive, prissy priest who loves the creature comforts of clerical life than that JBQ is in any way a drug user.

ReplyDeleteThe Russian Orthodox Church was controled by the KGB. Now Sviatoslav who claims to be "Patriarch" of Ukrainian National Catholic Church, and who voted for his long-time friend Bergoglio claims to play the "victim card" while persecuting the SSPX and the greek catholic traditionalists such as Father Vasile Kovpak and his Society of Saint Josephat. While the SSPX bishops excommunication was lifted,Sviatoslav the Userper refuses to lift the excommmunications for the simple "crime" of merely assisting at an SSPX ordination for Greek Catholic priests.
ReplyDeleteAs far as Cardinal Kasper's claim that people were more obedient or respectful to the Pope before, this applies only to recent memory. Popes were arrested and held in contempt in early Church history. Patriarchs were sacked.
Popes were also forced into resignation.
DeleteExcuse me, but that's the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Please get your facts straight.
