St. Teresa of Avila and G K Chesterton show us what the goal of all writers should be.
St. Teresa of Avila:
-"And
as I think that Your Reverence, and others who are to see this, will do
what, for love of the Lord, I am asking you, I am writing quite freely.
In any other case, I should have great scruples about writing at all,
except to confess my sins."
-"So Your Reverence must take the
responsibility for everything beyond the simple story of my life (since
you have importuned me so earnestly to write some account of the favors
which God grants me in prayer), if it be in accordance with the truths
of our holy Catholic Faith; and if it be not, Your Reverence must burn
it at once -- I am quite willing for you to do that."
-"I will
describe my experiences, so that, if what I write is in accordance with
these truths, it may be of some use to Your Reverence; if it be not, my
soul will be disillusioned, and, if I am not gaining anything myself, as
I trust I am, there will at least be no gain for the devil. The Lord
well knows that, as I shall say later, I have always tried to seek out
those who will enlighten me."
G K Chesterton:
-"The greatest friend of Truth is time, her greatest enemy is Prejudice, and her constant companion Humility."
-"Sin has many tools, but a lie is the handle which fits them all."
-"Don't be "consistent" but be simply true."
-"The
only right way of telling a story is to begin at the beginning--at the
beginning of the world. Therefore all books have to be begun in the
wrong way for the sake of brevity."
Francis Notes:
- Doctor
of the Church St. Francis de Sales totally confirmed beyond any doubt
the possibility of a heretical pope and what must be done by the Church
in such a situation:
"[T]he Pope... WHEN he is EXPLICITLY a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church, and the Church MUST either deprive him, or, as some say, declare him deprived, of his Apostolic See."
(The Catholic Controversy, by St. Francis de Sales, Pages 305-306)
Saint Robert Bellarmine, also, said "the Pope heretic is not deposed ipso facto, but must be declared deposed by the Church."

- LifeSiteNews, "Confusion explodes as Pope Francis throws magisterial
weight behind communion for adulterers," December 4, 2017:
The AAS guidelines explicitly allows "sexually active adulterous couples
facing 'complex circumstances' to 'access the sacraments of
Reconciliation and the Eucharist.'"
- On February 2018, in Rorate Caeli, Catholic theologian Dr. John Lamont:
"The AAS statement... establishes that Pope Francis in Amoris Laetitia
has affirmed propositions that are heretical in the strict sense."
- On December 2, 2017, Bishop Rene Gracida:
"Francis' heterodoxy is now official. He has published his letter to the
Argentina bishops in Acta Apostlica Series making those letters
magisterial documents."
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church by the bishops by the grace of God.
