While there is a kernel of truth to at least part of this homily by the Pope, I find his style very, very hard to take.
Pope Francis seems to make semi-spontaneous observations that don't clearly have objects. Frankly, I am left with '...and what is your point?'
I can wring my hands about commonalities, too- and I hope my friends would slap me back into reason.
And what is the rationality in the Pope's case? Does he have any shred of appreciation for the autodestruction of the Church?
Making elementary observations that 'gatekeepers exist' and 'processes can get annoying' does not, to me, show that there is much of an understanding of what his Petrine office is.
He is father of princes and kings, the ruler of the world on earth, the vicar of our Savior Jesus Christ. Yet, I do see an appreciation, even a basic one, of a) the Four Last Things, b) there is a hell c) that is populated and d) given the state of affairs, the Church is in shambles.
If one is actually devoted to Fatima (really devoted I mean, not just superficially or in a dabbling sense, but actually makes real life choices taking it into account), I don't see such a man spouting statements that seem to be about nothing (though have a residue of rejecting 'stuffy rules and trappings.')
I don't mean disrespect to the Pope or to undermine him. Indeed, these homilies really bother me and meanwhile the Church is shedding more and more souls.
