Francis encouragement of airing heresy is severing the Church
The
stakes are incredibly high; they literally portend a major schism in
the Catholic Church. The reality is, despite the presentation of
non-negativity and fraternity inside the Synod hall, or aula as it is
called, those upholding orthodoxy have been fighting a pitched battle
with powerful foes openly proposing heresy with not a word of correction
from Pope Francis.
The heart of the hero-faction of this year’s Synod has shifted from the Africans last year to the Eastern Europeans. They have spoken out, naming bluntly the evils being proposed by cardinals and bishops as having been inspired by the devil. But a powerful cardinal shot back by accusing faithful bishops of bringing “division,” the hallmark of Satan, he said. Interestingly, when Archbishop Tomash Peta
referred to the “smoke of Satan” entering the Church through the
Synod’s heretical proposals he was being deadly serious. When Vienna
Cardinal Christoph Schonborn retorted with his “smoke of Satan”
rejoinder he paused for laughter at his Kazakhstan counterpart’s
expense.
The
most vociferous of the heretics at the Synod and those wielding the
most power and meting out punishment are the Western Europeans with
assistance from liberal Americans. German Cardinal Walter Kasper it
seems has taken a back seat to Cardinal Reinhard Marx, president of the
German Bishops’ Conference, who with his intervention, published on the conference website,
spells out his anti-Catholic proposal to allow Holy Communion to
couples remarried after having left “canonically valid” marriages while
their former spouses are still living. Even the escape hatch of the new
couple living in continence as “brother and sister” was ruled out:
Cardinal Marx said, “The advice to refrain from sexual acts in the new
relationship not only appears unrealistic to many. It is also
questionable whether sexual actions can be judged independent of the
lived context.”
The
Americans are split down the middle at the Synod with the appointees by
Pope Francis touting heresy and shutting down those who were elected by
their brother bishops in America to attend. Chicago Archbishop Blase Cupich
suggested openly to the media that even active homosexual couples could
be given Holy Communion. Washington Cardinal Donald Wuerl just
completed a media tour using harsh language to put Philadelphia Archbishop Charles Chaput in his place.
As for the Canadians, there are three who have garnered much attention. The heroic act of Toronto Cardinal Thomas Collins as one of the thirteen Cardinals to sign on to the letter to the Pope expressing grave concern
about manipulation at the Synod caused him much suffering. I met him at
a restaurant and he looked very tired. I expressed a simple thanks and
offered him prayers on behalf of life and family activists. Archbishop Paul-Andre Durocher planted himself firmly in the progressive camp along with Fr. Thomas Rosica early on in the proceedings.
All
the while Pope Francis has presided in silence, never correcting the
heresies but in his private homilies in Casa Santa Marta denouncing
again and again those “doctors of the law” who lack mercy and whose
“self-righteous attitude” betrays them as Pharisees.
The
bombshell of the Synod came Saturday when, apart from the Synod itself,
the pope presided at a celebration commemorating the 50th anniversary of Pope Paul VI establishing the modern Synod of Bishops. He used the opportunity to speak of a “decentralization” of the Catholic Church.
Ironically he used and cited the Church’s strictest teaching on papal
authority to enforce a change which is being interpreted as divesting
the papacy of that very authority. The Christ-appointed authority of the Rock of Peter is unique to the Catholic Church and was given only to Peter (the Pope) to guarantee its unity and fidelity.
There’s
hardly any other way to interpret what’s happening now in Rome. Prior
to the Synod we had Cardinal Marx, one of the pope’s nine top advising
cardinals, openly say that the German Church was “not a subsidiary of Rome”
and that it would go ahead with its proposal to give Holy Communion to
remarried divorcees. He’s spelled it out as direct heresy at the Synod
with no objection from the pope. And Pope Francis has ordered
decentralization.
What is it exactly that bishops conferences are unable to do now other than alter Church teaching? As Cardinal Arinze
told me in my interview with him in Rome, they can do just about
anything except change faith and morals, and if we’re changing that
we’re no longer Catholic.
All
the old errors of the 60s seem to have come back to haunt us. By gently
chiding them rather than stamping them out and disciplining or ousting
their proponents, we now have seven new evil spirits along with the
first infesting the Church. There are surely harder times coming with
even greater confusion in the Church.
While
the picture may seem bleak, we have no cause for worry. We believe
Christ’s promise that the gates of hell will not prevail against His
Church. Moreover, a great hope was instilled in me during my brief
journey to the heart of the battle. It was a hope which came from
witnessing and working with God’s littlest ones; with those clergy and
laity, young and old, ready and willing to lay down their lives for the
faith. These are regular heroes ready to forgo fame and fortune,
prestige and honor, to be faithful to the teachings of Christ in good
times and in bad. These are the little ones who form the "calcaneum
Mariae" or the heel of Mary which is predicted in Genesis 3:15 to crush
the head of the serpent.
