“Unfortunately we have a lot of bishops with a wrong understanding,” he said. “They have no theology of the Catholic theology. They don’t know that our faith is based in the relation [with], and has this ultimate and highest criterion in the Holy Scripture, and in the official and apostolic Tradition of the Church, and that the magisterium and authority of the bishops is not above or beyond the Word of God.”

Such bishops, attested Müller, have reduced their theology to the view that the Pope has ultimate authority over faith, and can implement “personal” ideas as teaching. Individuals with “no theological ideas, no knowledge of the Bible and Apostolic Tradition, the Church Fathers, the great tradition of the Catholic theology” end up reducing the Pope to having “absolute power in the world or in the Vatican like an autocrat.”

Muller, Strickland, Schneider. Any others who have had the courage to defend the faith?

Pope Francis has disgraced himself. I pray that Pope Francis and his cult of cardinals and bishops may have a full conversion experience, and in so doing they cease the scandal they present to the world. Amen.
