+ JMJ We seem to be in transition from the persecution of the SSPX and other faithful Catholics to a civil war within the Catholic Church i.e. a true schism. Several Bishops, Priests and Dioceses have rejected outright Fiducia Supplicans (link) . This, in my opinion (IMO), is a new inflection point on the way to what will amount to an civil war within the Catholic Church. Pope Francis had spent the past ten years putting the final touches on the fault-lines within the Church and this may be the final blow that actually awakens Our Lord sleeping in the bow of the Barque of St. Peter. That is something that we need to remember, Our Lord is with his Church, even on its way to Calvary. So, what is about to happen is that, IMO, faithful Catholics will find themselves in the same situation as the SSPX. Persecuted and fighting for the heart of the Catholic Church. The history of the SSPX provides a microcosm of what we might expect to happen in the Catholic Church during a 'civil war
Really? There have always been Judas cardinals…
ReplyDelete.. and there always will be as long as the Church is made up of sinners ...
DeleteThe sermon seemed to be very innocuous. and it seems to be part of a trend of less tolerance for those who support the Traditional Culture than under Benedict XVI. I'm thinking of the priest who defended marriage etc in Italy and was stomped on by his Bishop et al.
