I don't believe allowing adulterers to receive communion is anything new. Of course it is bad, but it has already been going on for decades. They have been giving out bogus annulments, tens of thousands per year, for ages now. I bet these Cardinals gave out annulments like everyone else, so why are they complaining?

Too bad they let slide the myriad "errors" made by Francis' predecessors.

Thanks for the laugh.

f Church history, this should be done. It should be on the record that some Cardinals and Bishops formally opposed the "Destroyer" pope.[/color]

Too little. Too late. 99% of the destruction has already been done. This latest is the tip of the iceberg and these "Cardinals and Bishops" have been asleep at the switch, if not accomplices in the destruction, the entire time.

I'm certain His Eminence and Company will get the same reaction from the left wing lemmings in the Church (should they go ahead with their slap on the wrist of Francis) as Donald Trump is getting from the establishment politicians.

This presents a possible big problem for the R&R folks. If this ends up being just another Archbishop Lefebvre moment, then it will resolve nothing. We will continue on in the same crisis that we have been in since 1963. But if the 4 Conciliar cardinals take it a step further and actually declare Francis to have lost his office, how will the R&R handle it? How could the R&R justify such an act if they have spent the last 40 years developing arguments for how such a thing could never be done? It would be a great irony if the 4 cardinals and their myriad NO followers broke from the Conciliar church just as the SSPX was entering it. I'm not sure how this will play out but regardless of the outcome it will be interesting to see how it is handled by the various players involved.

The ideal situation from my perspective would be for the 4 cardinals to not only declare the Roman See vacant but to also seek valid orders from a traditional bishop. If that happens, this could be the definitive resolution to the crisis. It could have the potential to unite many sede vacantists with many R&R and conservative Catholics around a truly Catholic pope. That could be a miraculous outcome.
