A Hermit's Open Letter to Cardinals and Bishops of the Catholic Church @LifeSite lifesitenews.com/opinion/awake-…
“Cardinal Maradiaga has accused Edward Pentin of being a 'hitman' who is the 'enemy of reform.' This preposterous accusation comes from one of the Pope’s closest advisers.” ~ Hermit to Cardinals and Bishops of the Catholic Church
"Amid the great clouds of spiritual and poisonous darkness that are now engulfing the Church, one feels a bit safer with Edward Pentin modestly walking across the world’s stage." ~ Hermit to Cardinals and Bishops of the Catholic Church
"I think particularly at this time of the much-maligned Archbishop Viganò, a man rightly praised for his integrity and courage, and also for his professionalism." ~ The Hermit
"Then we have the massively dependable Cardinal Burke who is like some great shire horse carrying the burdens of the Church on his shoulders, all in the cause of the defense of marriage and Christ in the Blessed Sacrament." ~ The Hermit
"Then beside him we have the humble and childlike Bishop Athanasius Schneider who valiantly champions the cause of the truth; he certainly understands the importance of truth, having been brought up under the all-seeing eye of the Soviet Union. He has known martyrs in his time."

According to a June 11 letter, + Viganò is to appear to “take notice of the accusations & evidence concerning the crime of schism of which he has been accused (public statements which result in a denial of the elements necessary to maintain communion with the Catholic Church...”.

The June 11 letter from the Disciplinary Section of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith stipulates that these elements (of the crime of schism) include “denial of the legitimacy of Pope Francis, rupture of communion with him, and rejection of the Second Vatican Council.”

BREAKING: A perverse & pornographic book written by DDF Prefect Cardinal Víctor Fernández in 1998—3 years after “The Art of Kissing”—has been discovered in Argentina. Titled “Mystical Passion: Spirituality & Sensuality”, its Chapters 7, 8 & 9 are too explicit to post here (1/2):

Those who found the book—not wanting it to be seen by the public because of its blasphemous & explicit content—intended to send it to Cardinals, but it was leaked. As reports—& likely passages—are published today, will #PopeFrancis remove Fernández head of Doctrine of the Faith?
*as head of the #Vatican Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith.

CARDINAL MÜLLER dismantles #Vatican declaration: “There are no biblical texts or texts of the Fathers & Doctors of the Church or previous documents of the magisterium to support [its] conclusions ... What we see is not a development but a doctrinal leap.” newdailycompass.com/en/mueller-ble…
“In the Bible a blessing has to do with the order that God has created & that he has declared to be good. This order is based on the sexual difference of male & female called to be one flesh. Blessing a reality that is contrary to creation is not only impossible, it is blasphemy”
“It is not a question of blessing persons who ‘live in a union that cannot be compared in any way to marriage’ (FS 30), but of blessing the very union that cannot be compared to marriage. It’s precisely for this purpose that a new kind of blessing is created (FS 7, 12),” he said.

WATCH: Asked why CUA students have no access to TLM on campus, +Wilton Gregory says “Tradition dies a slow, sometimes bloody death”, acts like Summorum PontifIcum never happened, & adds that #PopeFrancis “is right to say (through #TraditionisCustodes) deal with the priests.”(1/4)

OCT 21 #Synod briefing: German Bishop Overbeck says: “We put Jesus Christ at the center of faith in a common quest without clinging to habits & traditionalisms which, if critically examined, have no priority in the hierarchy of truth, & this in the end is important to say.”👇1/4
Summing up Bishop Overbeck’s statement (and inviting him to correct me if I had misunderstood his meaning), I asked him what he meant by “tradition”, and if he meant Apostolic Tradition? (2/4)
Bishop Overbeck responded: 👇(3/4)

At Oct 14 #Synod briefing, I asked Paolo Ruffini if we’ll be given a breakdown of how many bishop-members voted for a particular point in the final synthesis report & how many non-bishop-members voted for the same point. The answer seems to be “no”. Full text of exchange 👇(1/3).
Ruffini told me afterward that it “makes no sense” to provide this breakdown. However, if a 2/3 majority is needed to pass, & on a certain controversial point the bishop-members vote 50% yea & 50% nay, the non-bishop vote could push the proposal through. Our full exchange below: Image
How precisely would this be a Synod of Bishops if the laity effectively have the power to override them? Wouldn’t this undermine the office of governance proper to the bishops? And what credibility would the #SynodonSynodality have, given such a lack of transparency?
