Papal Scandals: Why Are Bishops Silent?

  • The scandals surrounding Pope Francis just keep on coming.  Here’s two out of the many reported across the internet in recent days.

    “Among those who persecuted and denounced Pentecostals, almost as if they were crazy people trying to ruin the race, there were also Catholics,” [Pope Francis] said. “I am the pastor of Catholics, and I ask your forgiveness for those Catholic brothers and sisters who didn’t know and were tempted by the devil.”  Read more

    So, the desire to prevent the spread of Evangelical Protestantism is a “temptation from the devil”?
    Note: the banner headline in this week’s Catholic Herald reads: ‘I ask your forgiveness': Francis seeks to end rift with Evangelicals”. Think of the young people who may walk past the paper stall in their local parish and read that shocker. The Pope, no less,  apologising for Catholics refusing to help Protestants spread their false religion.  It’s like a High Court Judge apologising for a rift with robbers. Then, if those young people read the editorial inside, they will be further confused because the Editor writes of “Bishop Tony Palmer” without any hint that he is no such thing, he is (or was before his sudden death recently) a Protestant pastor, beloved friend of Pope Francis but then name a heretic or schismatic who isn’t.  

    Anyway, battling for first place with the above scandal in the Golden Nugget category, is the following report – which I have yet to be convinced is NOT a spoof:

    Pope Francis is reportedly preparing a major world statement about extraterrestrial life and its theological implications. Rosana Ubanell from Voxxi News today reported that due to advances in scientific detection methods for the discovery of extraterrestrial life, Pope Francis wants to be ready with a statement about “First Contact”. Ubanell reports that details have yet to be officially announced but that the Vatican’s interest in extraterrestrial life is well docuмented through recent astrobiology conferences the Vatican Observatory has sponsored or participated in. Father Guy Consolmagno, a Jesuit astronomer and one of the leading Catholic proponents for preparing for the scientific discovery of extraterrestrial life, on July 18, won the Carl Sagan science medal from the American Astronomical Society. Pope Francis, a fellow Jesuit, regularly consults with Consolmagno and other leading Vatican astronomers about scientific issues. It is likely that Pope Francis is preparing an “Urbi et Orbi” speech – Latin for “to the city [of Rome] and the world” – about First Contact with extraterrestrial life.   Read more

    It really does make you wonder what planet the pontiff inhabits, so to speak…

    Key Question…

    Why are the bishops not speaking out?  Even those regarded as orthodox and traditional leaning appear to be enveloped in a bubble of silence.  Why?  Don’t they realise that one day, perhaps soon, they will be called to account for their complicit silence?

    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

  • Aliens are freemasonic diabolical inventions that serve as a distraction from the True Faith of Jesus Christ.

    The Catholic Church hierarchy has been infiltrated by the freemasons. That is why the bishops remain silent.

  • An another brilliant Cantarella this is a great reason to stay.

    A bishop that knows that the Pope is bad, and remains silent
    and condones the Pope because he is the holy father and is
    infallible in everything, sins by his silence. The Catholics whom
    see these things will believe that the Church has changed its
    moral teachings and does no longer apply. This belief is the
    case of the damnation of many Catholics whom are loose in
    their lives because of false teachings in which the pastors and
    the bishop are so silent about.

    Thank you Cantarella for your brilliant contribution.

    The bishops are silent to everything including sex abuse, same sex marriage, divorce etc because
    The bishops and cardinals are supporting it all.

    So would this statement on faith and morals be infallible?

    That's it right there-  except I'd say they are *all* wolves, every single one of them.

    Any bishop or cardinal that was any good was culled a long time ago.

    This photo is true for almost all (if not all) Conciliar bishops, not just the U.S. bishops.

    "Don’t they realise that one day, perhaps soon, they will be called to account for their complicit silence?"

    It seems to me you're asking a question from the standpoint of someone who has faith.  As such, you appear to presume that the bishops* (to whom you refer as those not speaking out) have the same faith that you do.  I beg to differ.  If the bishops had faith they wouldn't be speaking the way they do.  Listen to the sermons of Fr. Pfeiffer.  If the bishops had faith, they would sound like Fr. Joseph Pfeiffer, or Fr. Fernando Altamira, or Fr. Patrick Girouard, or Fr. Nicolai Pinaud.

    But they don't sound like that, and the reason is, they have lost the Faith.  

    As such, they most likely don't bother to think about being called to account for their complicit silence at their particular judgment, because, simply, they don't believe they will be so called, nor do they believe that there will be any particular judgment.  

    About a thousand years ago, a pope began to preach that when a man dies, he doesn't face any judgment, but rather his soul hangs out in a kind of leisure world or copa cabana for the duration of the world, a sort of mockery of Limbo.  A holy saint spent much time at his bedside speaking to him, urging him to abjure his error, and he did so abjure before he died.  

    But his error, although abjured a millennium ago, has not disappeared, but rather it has spread.  There are more flavors and variations in the denial of the Faith than any one of us can imagine, but although they are LEGION, they are alike, in that they are all the denial of the truth.  

    While I don't disagree that Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ has spread like a cancer in the hierarchy of Holy Mother Church, accelerated ever since the accession of one of their own to the papacy in 1958 (John XXIII), by which means Freemasonic principles and 'friends' multiplied in the Curia and among the bishops, even so, you don't have to be a Freemason to be in accord with their agenda.  

    The Freemasonic agenda is the loss of faith, and the acquiring of atheistic materialism to take its place, most prominently found in atheistic Communism (or socialism, which is the same thing), which Pope Pius XI called, "the satanic scourge of the Church."



    *P.S.  Those bishops to whom you refer can't include +W, for example, because he does speak out, at least, insofar as he dares.  (H.E. could be cast into prison if he were to really say what he thinks, so then how much 'preaching' could he do in prison?)
