Why is Francis Accompanying at a "Exclusive Retreat" Accused Barros-like Zanchetta & apparently Sharing a Residency with one Accused of being a Sexual Predator?

It appears that Pope Francis is accompanying Bishop Gustavo Zanchetta, who is accused of being a sexual predator, at a "exclusive retreat."

Lifesitenews reported:

"The Herald reports... Zanchetta... is attending the exclusive retreat, which is being conducted for the Pope."

Why is Francis attending an "exclusive retreat" with a "bishop accused of sexual abuse"?

It appears that Francis with Zanchetta has a new Bishop Juan Barros-like sex abuse scandal.

Francis overturned the Pope Benedict XVI appointed CDF ruling that found credible evidence that Barros covered-up for a infamous sexual predator priest which barred him from the office of bishop. The current Pope then appointed Barros bishop of Osorno according to La Bussola Quotidiana:

"But with a letter signed by Pope [Francis] in January 2015... the request for [CDF] exemption [barring from office] is blocked and ... Barros is promote [to bishop] of Osorno."
(La Nova Bussola Quotidiana, "Barros, the shock letter that denies the Pope," February 6, 2017, translation from Italian by Google)

In 2017, Francis appointed and promoted his "personal friend" Zanchetta to the Vatican's real estate body APSA even though the Argentine press reported that he allegedly was involved in shady economic mismanagement and reportedly according to Argentine official Church documents and media reports was accused of sexual perversion and sexual predatory behavior similar to that of disgraced ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick.

Moreover, according to LifeSiteNews, it appears that Francis's "friend," the accused McCarrick-like Zanchetta, "came to live in Casa Marta, where Francis himself resides."

Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church.

5 Dubia Questions for 1P5's Steve Skojec & All faithful Catholics especially Francis is definitely Pope Cardinals, Bishops & pundits

Here are five really short and easy to answer dubia questions which hopefully aren't too complicated for Steve Skojec, publisher of the One Peter Five website, to answer. To make it really easy for the publisher of One Peter Five it has been formatted so that he only has to answer: yes or no. 1. Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales said "The Pope... when he is explicitly a heretic... the Church must either deprive him or as some say declare him deprived of his Apostolic See." Was St. Francis de Sales a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 2. "Universal Acceptance" theologian John of St. Thomas said "This man in particular lawfully elected and accepted by the Church is the supreme pontiff." Was John of St. Thomas for saying "the supreme pontiff" must be BOTH "lawfully elected and accepted by the Church" a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 3. Do you think that a "supreme pontiff...

"Well, 'either one gives up the scapular or they give up immodesty'. The point is they cannot coexist."

By Mary's Secretary In my book The Practice of the Presence of Mary: To Live and Die with Mary , I dedicated Part II to Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Her scapular (fitting as Her feast is approaching), and I specifically mentioned how the scapular and spaghetti straps DO NOT go together. What I mean by that is I have noticed that those in the Church who DO NOT follow the Catholic dress code typically aren’t the ones wearing the scapular. I went on to say that modesty and the scapular go together and if you ever were immodest in dress, the scapular, being Our Lady’s sacramental that it is, gives one the grace to BECOME modest. I can attest to this in my own life. Only after I was enrolled in the scapular did I begin, little by little, become modest. It’s a process. Kind of like the rosary quote, “one either gives up the sin or they give up the rosary.” Well, “either one gives up the scapular or they give up immodesty”. The point is they cannot coexist. In fact...
