I'd be shocked if Jorge were NOT a Freemason.

Yes, Benny resigned ... well, except that Benny didn't have the office to resign from either.

"The priest also alleged that Francis is a Freemason, making him ipso facto excommunicated from the Church and, therefore, not the pope."

I thought that Wojtyla the Worst's "Canon Law" eliminated the automatic excommunication for Masonic membership.

Therefore the Church's negative judgment in regard to Masonic association remains unchanged since their principles have always been considered irreconcilable with the doctrine of the Church and therefore membership in them remains forbidden. The faithful who enroll in Masonic associations are in a state of grave sin and may not receive Holy Communion.
