Five Myths of Why Bergogilio is Definitely the Pope

The Catholic Monitor is honored to post the following short piece by Helen M. Weir, MI. She is a excellent writer as well as a Knight of the Immaculata. This means she is a member of the Militia Immaculatae movement of Total Marian Consecration founded by Saint Maximilian Kolbe, the Hero of Auschwitz.

Five myths of why Bergogilio is definitely the pope:

1. Myth: He is the pope because we've had corrupt popes before. (Answer: Just because a man is corrupt doesn't make him the pope.)

2. Myth: He is the pope we deserve because of our infidelity. (Answer: What we deserve doesn't make him the pope.)

3. Myth: He is the pope by God's will. (Answer: God is not chaotic. He abides by His own rules. If it was God's will for Bergoglio to be the pope, Bergoglio would have been validly elected.)

4. Myth: We have to accept him as pope until a future pope says otherwise. (Answer: Cardinal Burke has stated there are real doubts as to the validity of Bergoglio's election. It is a staple of Catholic moral theology that one may not act on doubt. In other words, we have no authority to accept Bergoglio as pope until competent Church authority resolves the issue.)

5. Myth: Only private judgment, based on pride, could be the basis for doubting that Bergoglio is the pope. (Answer: Only private judgment based on pride could insist, in light of all we know, that he possibly could be.)

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

The Nuremberg Trial-like Excuse which Cardinal Burke has so Staggeringly, so Stereotypically Proffered on the Promised “Formal Correction”

Does Cardinal Burke think Francis is an antipope? On at least five occasions, Cardinal Burke has rejected the magisterial nature of official papal teaching (in one case, pre-emptively dismissing a hypothetical official teaching of the Magisterium): Cardinal Burke has rejected the official teaching of Pope Francis in the new Apostolic Constitution Episcopalis Communio concerning the possibility that a pope can raise the final synodal document to the level of ordinary magisterium, if the pope chooses. (We covered the Episcopalis Communio here .) The whole apostolic constitution on the Synod is problematic. … This idea that either the Pope on his own or the Synod together with the Pope can create some new Magisterium [i.e. a new teaching of the ordinary Magisterium], is simply false. The Synod is a consultative body, to help the Pope to see how best to present the Church’s teaching in time. It’s not able to create ordinary Magisterium. As a canon lawyer, Cardinal Burk

"I Personally have No Doubt that Obama did in fact Orchestrate the Vatican [Pope Benedict] Coup, a[n]... Obama/Francis Partnership"

Attorney and World Net Daily (WND) contributor Scott Lively believes "that Obama did in fact orchestrate the Vatican [Pope Benedict XVI] coup, and... the Obama/Francis partnership behind the United Nation": Jesuit Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina became Pope Francis in March of 2013. I published my first article about Pope Francis and the LGBT agenda on August 1, 2013 when he was in the news for appearing to legitimize the concept of a “gay” identity as innate and unchangeable. That concept is the false, anti-biblical premise of so-called “Queer Theory” (their term, not mine), a pseudo-scientific invention of “gay” political strategists, which underlies the entire LGBT political agenda. Francis infamously said in a media interview “If a person is gay and seeks the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge that person?”. I actually defended him against the charge that this statement represented an endorsement of homosexual conduct, and gave him the benefit of t

Pray an Our Father now for reparation for the sins committed because of Francis's Amoris Laetitia. Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Stop for a moment of silence, ask Jesus Christ what He wants you to do now and next. In this silence remember God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost - Three Divine Persons yet One God, has an ordered universe where you can know truth and falsehood as well as never forget that He wants you to have eternal happiness with Him as his son or daughter by grace. Make this a practice.
