Anti-papal sentiment on the rise?: Last week in the Church with John Allen Jr.

[@markrankin6715]

I was a supporter of Francis early in his papacy, but in recent years he has been very heavy handed in dealing with people who don't share his fairly radical views. And John Allen, it's not really about " ideological preferences ": that trivialises the reasons why people don't agree with Francis. They often disagree because of deeply felt beliefs about the essence of Catholicism.

[@7349yt]

Those who consider the problematic things the pope has said as "of the essence of Catholicism" don't understand the essence of Catholicism. Francis has made some dubious statements about third order teachings, not the "essential ones", which basically are what's in the Creed; or even the secondary ones that logically flow from the primary/creedal ones. I don't like some of the things he's said either (Fiducia Supplicans seems to me too ambiguous, utterly unnecessary, and unnecessarily provocative, especially of the ideologically and theologically "conservative"); but that might be because I am wrong, not the pope; and since the Holy Spirit gave him to us and inspires him to lead, I'm going to assume that it's probably more likely that I am wrong than the pope on these "third order teachings" (at least as I have understood them; and there again: maybe I misunderstood them all along!).

In that vein, I also don't see why Cardinals get diplomatic passports - nuncio's I can understand, but not cardinals and why are they travelling first class exactly?

Speaking of the pope, when you are dealing with someone who speaks with a forked tongue trying to play both sides, by his very nature you are going to be dealing with someone who is neither courageous nor virtuous. I would argue that pope's 'sensitive' persona, as someone mentions below, is simply that... a made-for-television image which is supported by his ghost writers (all popes have had them, but unlike his immediate predecessors, Francis is hardly a writer, philosopher, or theologian). Rather than "sensitivity", I perceive flashes of autocracy, cruelty, indifference, and spite. I don't know the pope personally, of course, and so I could be wrong... but if I am, his press handlers need to be fired because that is what I see as I look past the propaganda. As one might imagine from my critical tone, I firmly believe that the gay agenda, along with female ordination, acceptance of birth control and the like is a hopeless dead-end representing only the latest attack of the Evil One against the living, risen Jesus Christ and his followers in the Church. There's any number of options to the Catholic Church whose embrace of these elements have sealed their fate in complete and rapid irrelevance. There are hard days ahead for the Catholic Church as well, but we have a certain 'chronic vigor' as John Henry Newman might call it, to renew ourselves by going back into the core of who we are, especially under times of heterodoxy and persecution, and rise up again to find our way back to Christ.

I think perhaps poet maggie-and correct me if I misunderstand you - that by 'they take it as it is or they are not complete Catholics" isn't meant to be a suggestion that Catholics should not think, but rather that as full Catholics we do, and must, assent to the doctrines and dogmas of the Catholic Church. In fact, to do so wholly and completely requires a great deal of thinking and nuance as well as a realization of who we are -created beings-before the Uncreated Light. I think often this 'freedom of thinking' is simply the intellectual egoism and hubris that sets up the creature's meagre intellect against the Creator's omniscience. Many great minds in the Catholic church think, ponder, pray, write, debate, discuss, and in great humility recognize their limited understanding and knowledge before the utter mystery of God, and submit to the doctrines of the Church, the bride of Christ. To submit to the teachings of the Church is not to be in the chains of ignorance, but rather to be in the freedom of submission to the Will of God. Remember St. Thomas Aquinas' words at the end of his Summa.
