Russian Orthodox Church: Pope Francis’ Comments About Talks With Patriarch Kirill ‘Regrettable’

The Russian Orthodox Church on Wednesday described Pope Francis’ recent comments about his discussion of the Ukraine war with Patriarch Kirill as ‘regrettable.’

The Russian Orthodox Church on Wednesday described Pope Francis’ recent comments about his discussion of the Ukraine war with Patriarch Kirill as “regrettable.”

The Moscow Patriarchate’s external relations department said in a May 4 statement that the Pope’s words were “unlikely to contribute to the establishment of a constructive dialogue” between the Catholic Church and Russian Orthodox Church. 

The Pope and the patriarch of Moscow and all Russia discussed the war during a video conference call on March 16. In an interview with an Italian newspaper published on May 3, Pope Francis said that “a patriarch can’t lower himself to become Putin’s altar boy.”

Bergoglio came out with some good and positive things yesterday, about meeting with the Russians (although it’s not possible) even though the Ukrainians are ramping up the pressure. Because the Ukrainians are very world-government, pro-gay, etc., they should be his faves. But maybe he’s having a burst of common sense.

One thing everybody says about Bergoglio is that he is so inconsistent.

The lie promulgated by the revisionist modernists is that the truth was hidden by the Church until Vatican II, the “magesterium” promoted by Bergoglio.

Adam Mickiewicz, loved by revisionist modernists, wrote :
“We are not dealing with reforms, innovations, or religious revolutions, but we expect a new manifestation of the Christian spirit. ... The Christian spirit is ready to exit the Catholic Church: but the official clergy does not have enough light and heat to hatch it.“

The revealing of the truth, supposedly hidden by the church, was declared to have been accomplished by Vatican II, per John Paul II’s own words:

“Vatican II saw the birth of a new figure of the Church who had remained hidden in the preconciliar Church for two millennia.”

The concept that the church was merely outward, not true, and the truth must be shed of the church to reveal itself is Gnosticism.

The absolute truth given to man though was from Christ Himself: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life... No man comes unto the Father but by me” echoed by St. Paul who wrote that the ultimate revelation is “Christ in you.” Not an esoteric Christ, not a Christ that will appear on CNN or MSNBC, but a risen Christ, as shown when Christ told St. Thomas to reach out, touch his hands and side, and see that He, risen, had flesh and bones.

It is hostility to this truth which compels Christ-hating revisionist modernists to fight the reality of the literal death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, to try and replace the truth of the church of 2k years with human ideas, a man-centered Mass of Vatican 2 that hates the Good Friday Prayer, loves the abomination of Nostra Aetate, etc.
