Wait!
Wait just a moment!
So, Father Barron gets a promotion to bishop after he states that "even atheists can make it to heaven."
Wow!
Blind leading blind.
Didn't St. John Chrysostom state that in hell, the roads are paved with the skulls of priests, and the lampposts are the bishops?
And for those who don't read the Church Fathers, then almost 1000 years later didn't Dante restate that in his Inferno?
Isn't this why priests and bishops are to take very seriously their ordination and consecration?
These men are called to serve the Church, and if they fail to lead Christ's flock to Heaven, then as false shepherds, they are damned to Hell.
All Jєωs and atheists going to heaven, and his willingness to use his God given skills as a communicator, to spread heresy, guarantees him a post as a Conciliar TV bishop. Conciliar priests who make the mistake of saying or doing Catholic things like burning a rainbow flag raised by a sodomite priest who killed himself at the NO table in a deeply sordid way, or even basic things like reporting a pervert / corrupt (perverts are usually dishonest too) colleague, or preaching in a very mild way Catholic teaching on ѕυιcιdє, are deprived of their living, threatened with committal to a psychiatric hospital, and in one or two cases likely ѕυιcιdєd. They rarely are promoted, and if they were, are retired through the efforts of their Conciliar colleagues or the Argentine.
Barron might find later that selling his soul for a mess of pottage, has a painful downside.
