In addition to being the Pope we need to remember that he is also the head of the Vatican state.
wow. So maybe what we’re hearing isn’t the Word of God?
Real Man+Woman marriage, real Fatherly leadership, protection and provision; real Motherly adaptive intelligence, warmth, responsiveness, and nurture; real love; real sex; real pregnancy, real childbirth!
Please direct me to the relevant link to Bellarmine. I had not heard this and I need to know more.
I don’t think so. He doesn’t have an ecclesiastical superior. Who would do it?
You are right. My favorite program is the daily mass.
I saw a flurry of blog posts on it awhile back. I think even comments on Fr. Z’s blog. I would google and bing for the subject. (I like bing better than google, but I don’t like saying that I “binged.”)
I clearly heard the Pope endorse our getting behind international government/leadership. I clearly heard him push a vast hoax as truth. And yes he should have pointed to the bloodiest slaughter in the history of the planet...the wanton destruction of babies.
After Francis well controlled trip to Cuba with addresses full of platitudes carefully avoiding to say anything that might annoy the regime, the Pope will arrive to the United States eager to denounce all the evils and exploitation done to the world by this imperialist nation.
In U.S. Francis will selectively quote parts of Pope Leo XIII Social Doctrine of the Church criticizing the capitalism at the end of the XIX century that doesn’t resemble the capitalism after the middle of the XX century. But in Cuba Francis did not dare to mention the position of the Magisterium of the Church on Communism and evil ideology that was condemned its very beginning by all the Popes from Leo XIII to Benedict XVI.
Francis’ enthusiastically embraced the hoax of the global warming during his address at the White House while ignoring an urgent real crisis - the genocide of Christians by Muslims in Africa and the Middle East, this put him in complete accord with Obama’s world view. Jesus was not even mentioned by the Pope, much less he dare to speak condemning abortion in front of Obama.
There is a parallelism among Obama and Francis. Obama violates the U.S. Constitution; Francis disregards the Magisterium of the Church. Both are doing irreparable damage, one to U.S.; the other to the Church.
No.
My point is that Benedict RESIGNED, and that the result was that there was NO POPE.
My point was NOT that there is no Pope NOW! Francis was duly elected. He is the Pope. The fact that Benedict is still alive is totally irrelevant.
I really like Raymond Arroyo. Maybe he can get the word to Francis that he is causing much harm.
Somebody should tell him.
Just emailed Raymond and suggested he and others tell Francis to stay away from, not only political talk, but also from material talk.
Confine it to spiritual.
Agree. I bet a lot of Dems, who were complaining about the Bush family, etc, being One Worlders, are surprised to find it’s actually the Dem/Socialist/Communist leaders that really want total control. I guess the Dems must’ve really wanted One World as long as they were in control of it.
I’m sorry
You guys merit better
I don't think that would work. Which of these Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit imbue Holy Father Francis' Public Pronouncements? Interviews? Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Knowledge, Fortitude, Piety, Fear of God?
I hope not too soon. We would miss your wit around here! :-)
Far worse is the pollution of God’s Word and His laws as compared to penalties for dirtying the air Francis!
Thanks for the quick and relevant Bellamine quote. But how are we to answer who it is who must make the determination that a pope heretical?
