RETURN TO TRADITION

But this particular quote goes strongly against Francis who in AL taught that a faithful marriage is just an ideal that can sometimes be broken and that adulterers may still partake in holy communion.

Il Papa, citando Humanae Vitae, dice nell'omelia che "additando come testimoni esemplari degli sposi, la Chiesa ci dice che il mondo di oggi ha bisogno dell’alleanza coniugale per conoscere e accogliere l’amore di Dio e superare, con la sua forza che unifica e riconcilia, le…

We saw the results of the survey. Some 70% of the world’s Bishops did not respond. Of those that did, only 20% said the TLM in their parish was sowing division. That makes about 6% of all parishes with problems, at least according to those Bishops. Cannot rule out confirmation… https://t.co/MYyBjZ1u1J

The Pope's appt. of Rev. Bismarck Chau to be auxiliary bishop of Newark (under the notorious Cardinal Tobin) seems pretty interesting.

That's ridiculous. You can not do something intrinsically wrong, so that good may come of it. My understanding is you do what's right and trust the rest to God’s providence. Self-control is not an impossibility here.

This is not good news. We pray that Pope Leo realizes that the faithful do not need a whitewashed papacy garbed in traditional vestments. We need a successor of Peter who will die for the Church that Christ established, willing to be martyred like his predecessor. https://t.co/fd7aahVWEs

There are people, left and right, noting that Francis and Cardinal Prevost used to meet every Saturday for two hours. They’re suggesting this implies an unusually close partnership.

But it is sop that pope and bishops’ prefect have that weekly meeting to go over appointments.
