Very interesting conversation. I am surprised that the Jesuits were not discussed here in more detail. So called "conservative" Roman Catholics are said to complain about the "liberalism" of Vatican II in the 1960s. Were not the Jesuits very much involved in that process of "church reform" with Cardinal Bea as one of the main movers and shakers. Jesuit Pope Francis, with his power as Pope and as Jesuit, will as we can see already - mould and form the Church of the future in his way, in his independent Jesuit choosing. How many of the unhappy flock react, remains to be seen. That is my humble prognosis.

As far as I am aware, the Catholic Church does consider that the Eastern Orthodox Churches have valid Orders and a valid Eucharist. As such, apart from the formal difference of opinion over the Creed (filoque) and the position of the Bishop of Rome in the Church, the Eastern Orthodox Churches are considered by the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church to be places where the sacramental life of the Faith may be lived in full. Now, if the Eastern Orthodox Churches are considered so sound, why is it that they are content to rely upon the doctrinal definitions of the first Seven Ecumenical Councils of the Church? Why do they not see the need to have another fourteen Ecumenical Councils, dozens of Synods and hundreds of Papal Encyclicals? It does pose the question “could the Faith survive intact without all of this endless round of meetings, Councils, Synods Encyclicals?” The Faith appears to survive, more or less intact, in the Eastern Orthodox Churches, without any of this paraphernalia. As far as this present Synod is concerned, everyone knows exactly what it is about. It professes to be a Synod to expand the missionary zeal of the Church. We know that this is not the case. We all know that the Synod has been called to begin the process of breaking down barriers, to permit the Church to formally approve of homosexual relationships and female Clergy. Because of the profound dishonesty at the very centre of the Church, there is no openness or honesty about what it intended. Just millions of millions spent on running the Synod, hundreds of thousands of hours of time spent in endless discussion, all to produce what is simple enough to produce if it were to be done openly and honestly - a simple statement by the Pope that, just as (he asserts) the Church made a mistake in approving of the death penalty for two thousand years, it also got it quite wrong when it comes to the question of homosexual relationships, female Clergy and the right to divorce and remarry. Just sweep away the Catholic Faith and replace it with a popular set of beliefs - as the Church of England has done. At least the Church of England has been open and honest - they acknowledge that they have abandoned the Faith in the interests of courting popularity.
@wg820Ай бұрын
@Mark3ABE You are incorrect in saying that the Eastern Orthodox don't have valid orders. The Catholic Church recognizes their Sacraments as valid but not licit. Validity has to do with Apostolic succession of their bishops. Their bishops are valid because one can trace the ordination back to the Apostles. Liceity has to do with whether or not authority has been granted to ordain others. So, the Eastern Orthodox bishops, priests and ,deacons all have valid Holy Orders but not licit ones.
@Mark3ABEАй бұрын
@@wg820 All of this illustrates how difficult it is to make any progress in discussions such as this. For example, I say “the Catholic Church does consider that the Eastern Orthodox Churches have valid Orders and a valid Eucharist”. You then reply by saying “you are incorrect in saying that the Eastern Orthodox Churches don’t have valid orders” when, in fact, I have said the opposite. I think in discussions such as this, there is a definite demonic intervention which prevents a person from actually having the ability to even understand what is clearly said, in black and white. Satan is the cause of all confusion in the Church. Again and again in discussions such as this I have seen people make assertions which are not only patently untrue, but which are demonstrably patently untrue, but, while, of course well intentioned and sincere, they are not able to prevent themselves from acting in such a fashion.

The Francis papacy is a sliver of time in the long history of the Church. The Church's timeframe is in terms of centuries and of eternity. We cannot say that the Francis papacy will influence the Church's teachings in perpetuity. Francis's agenda mark him as a creature of his time/our time since he speaks so much to the issues of the day. A hundred years from now may be a better perspective on the influence of the Francis period on the Church - assuming people still remember who he was. As a Catholic, I am troubled. I am afraid. But popes come and go. it is the Church that Christ left behind that bears His promises. He will not abandon it. I differ with you. It is His Church. When He said "I will be with you always till the end of the age", I believe Him. The Bride of Christ is inseparable from Christ and no puny man can cast it asunder. The Bride of Christ cannot become the Whore of Babylon. At the end of the day, it is Christ's Church. That is despite the long line of broken men who take turns being his steward through the centuries. By prayer and supplication, by orthodox Catholics making our presence felt in the Church and by the grace of God, we will be okay.

Re the LGBT questionL It is significant that the leadership in the Catholic Church is ignoring the impact toxic chemicals in the environment is having on the phenomenon of homosexuality. That this needs consideration is strongly suggested by the recorded information that there are some people with brains identifiable as female and others with male brains identifiable as male. .This further suggests that some people have suffered interference in the process of sexual differentiation, a natural process in the child's development in the womb. I spent from December of 2028 to December 2012, urging in every Catholic forum available to me consideration of the issue that some people can have a sexual orientation at war with their genital endowment because of sexual orientational confusion due to interference in the developmental process of sexual differentiation in the child in the womb. My efforts have all proven in vain. The impact of toxic chemicals in the environmental as an element to be considered in relationship to the phenomenon of homosexuality still remains to be considered.

The fundamental issue with the three of you is your evident confusion and lack of clarity concerning a project you neither know, understand, nor have adequately familiarized yourselves with. To assert that 400 individuals are engaged in private discussions, preventing others from listening or offering input, reveals a profound misunderstanding of the 'Synod' dialogue. I will not undertake your responsibilities by providing the necessary information; it is incumbent upon you to conduct your own research and be thoroughly informed before initiating such discussions, especially when you present yourselves as Catholic men committed to what is paramount for Christ. It is imperative that you set aside personal biases and approach this matter with a commitment to accuracy and a willingness to engage in an informed debate. Furthermore, let me clarify: the Synod was a "project" initiated by the Pope nearly two years ago. Unfortunately, not all parish priests fulfilled their responsibilities, which may explain why you encountered many individuals unfamiliar with the Synod. This lack of awareness falls on those priests who disregarded the Pope's call. If the Pope is the Vicar of Christ and the successor of Peter, what does this neglect suggest about their commitment? Those who did engage in this undertaking have witnessed the openness this project offered to *everyone*-literally, everyone. The very foundation of this initiative required the inclusion of all, urging parishioners to reach out to neighbors and friends, even those who do not regularly attend church. The Pope's efforts began with the collection of a vast and inclusive body of information, embracing the entire people of God. Gentlemen, do you consider yourselves exceptional? Do you believe yourselves superior to the Pope? If so, you undermine your own belief in the power of the Holy Spirit. For if it is indeed the Holy Spirit who inspires and guides the Cardinals in their choice of the Pope, then rather than challenging his decisions, your duty is to pray for the wisdom and discernment to comprehend the Pope's actions. It is crucial that we learn to support the one chosen by the Holy Spirit. Otherwise, you position yourselves in opposition to the Holy Spirit’s will. And what does that suggest about your faith and commitment? I pray that the Holy Spirit enlightens you, guiding you to embrace efforts that foster unity. It is time for you to purify your hearts and align with the greater purpose.

@@geoffjs Who has granted anyone the authority to pass judgment on the chosen representative of Christ on Earth? Such behavior is utterly unacceptable. Criticizing the Pope is tantamount to criticizing Christ Himself. Do you not comprehend the sacred purpose and meticulous process by which the Pope is elected? It is the duty of every devout Catholic to respect the Pope above all. If there is any counsel the Pope should hear, it certainly does not come from anyone outside the College of Cardinals or those who regularly consult with him. Matters concerning the Pope must be discussed privately, within the confines of the Vatican, by those duly appointed to do so. When individuals, driven by self-righteousness, engage in public criticism of the Pope, they inflict harm upon the Church. They tarnish the dignity of Christ's Bride ~ the Church itself. Can you grasp the gravity of this? Can you understand that by perpetuating such division, we are driving people away from the Church? It must stop. This is not merely about the person of the Pope; it concerns the sanctity of the entire Church. The Pope has qualified advisors with whom he can deliberate, yet the final decision rests with him alone. He holds the authority, an authority he did not seek but was chosen to bear. Perhaps some harbor prejudice because he does not fit their image of a "typical" Pope, but that is irrelevant. It is imperative that we respect each and every one of our chosen Popes, without exception. Let this be understood: Full stop 🛑
