MELTDOWN OF THE HETERODOX WHO NOW DENIGRATE HIS HOLINESS POPE BENEDICT XVI FOR HIS SEARING CRITQUE OF CONCILIARDOLATRY AND THE LOSS OF CATHOLIC MORALITY BASED ON THE SPLENDOR OF TRUTH AND DISCOVERED BY ALL IN NATURAL LAW!

What must be done? Perhaps we should create another Church for things to work out? Well, that experiment has already been undertaken and has already failed. Only obedience and love for our Lord Jesus Christ can point the way. So let us first try to understand anew and from within [ourselves] what the Lord wants, and has wanted with us.—Pope Benedict

The National Chismatic Reporter calling the media’s that published Pope Benedict’s Encyclical “Right Wing” because they didn’t publish it first reports the heterodox theologian’s reaction to the Holy Father’s brilliant text that shreds heterodoxy before our very eyes with an eyewitness account of its 1968 to the very present history.

My comment: The following are the most important points from Pope Benedict and has implications for Pope Francis’ 1960’s “theology,” for synodality especially in Germany and the Amazon. Make no mistake, this encyclical is unprecedented in the history of the Church and clearly a critique of the backward trajectory of the current papacy and it trying very hard to erase the papacies of John Paul II and Benedict! It is a return to the idolatry of worshiping Vatican II as a breach with all that preceded this Council. It is a return to the worship of the processes of dialogue, discernment and prayer that lead to decisions no matter how wrong the decisions are. It is a view of Mercy without justice, without standards, without tradition simply based upon accompaniment and appeasement of sin and immorality. In a nutshell, it is the self-referential Church fabricated by heterodox forces.

These are Pope Benedict’s money quotes on all of this and it is stunning: (my observations in red)

Pope John Paul II, who knew very well the situation of moral theology and followed it closely, commissioned work on an encyclical that would set these things right again. It was published under the title Veritatis splendor on August 6, 1993, and it triggered vehement backlashes on the part of moral theologians. Before it, the "Catechism of the Catholic Church" already had persuasively presented, in a systematic fashion, morality as proclaimed by the Church. (Many orthodox Catholics have complained that under the current papal Magisterium, Veritatis Splendor is virtually ignored, as though it didn't happen. Thus this is important to note that Pope Benedict raises this marvelous document!)

I shall never forget how then-leading German moral theologian Franz Böckle, who, having returned to his native Switzerland after his
retirement, announced in view of the possible decisions of the encyclical Veritatis splendor that if the encyclical should determine that
there were actions which were always and under all circumstances to
be classified as evil, he would challenge it with all the resources at his disposal.

It was God, the Merciful, that spared him from having to put his resolution into practice; Böckle died on July 8, 1991. (Pope Benedict shows the justice side of mercy in God calling this character home before he did more damage!!!!) The encyclical was published on August 6, 1993 and did indeed include the determination that there were actions that can never become good.

As the criteria for the selection and appointment of bishops had also been changed after the Second Vatican Council, the relationship of bishops to their seminaries was very different, too. Above all, a criterion for the appointment of new bishops was now their "conciliarity," which of course could be understood to mean rather different things. (Pope Francis is naming cardinals and bishops who are synodal (i.e. conciliarity!) and Pope Benedict sees the history of this from the post-Vatican II spirit of Vatican II Church as very, very destructive!)

Indeed, in many parts of the Church, conciliar attitudes were understood to mean having a critical or negative attitude towards the hitherto existing tradition, which was now to be replaced by a new, radically open relationship with the world. One bishop, who had previously been seminary rector, had arranged for the seminarians to be shown pornographic films, allegedly with the intention of thus making them resistant to behavior contrary to the faith. (This goes to the heart of Pope Benedict's on-going papacy, the hermeneutic of continuity when it comes to interpreting the Council, that an interpretation of the Council as a breach of what preceded it is heterdox!)
