Oh Lord Of FrancisChurch, I’d Call Upon You If I Only Knew How!

Interfaith chapel. Please face the wall.

Did you know that God’s actual name is Mercy?  it’s not ‘God.’  It’s not Father, not Son, not Holy Spirit.  It’s definitely not Justice, no!  It’s Mercy.  Just ask the Francis.

Did you know that God’s name, Mercy, is verified on His I.D. card.  His I.D. card says Mercy on it too, so there you go.

Isn’t it a coincidence that the name verified on God’s I.D. card turns out to be Mercy during the Holy Year of FrancisMercy when there are over ten thousand Holy MercyDoors being opened by cowed bishops around the world?  Even Hindus come get the mercy from Francis, I mean, the god whom Francis named.

Did you know that God’s name is also Allah?  I guess it’s Allah and it’s Mercy both, yes?  Well, yes and no.

 

UPDATE:  Did you know that Francis is also merciful?  Beloved Italian comedian Robert Benigni said Francis was a “waterfall of mercy” who is “dragging the whole Church toward Christianity.”

I suppose he’s a waterfall of God, you might say.  Where was the Church before this ‘merciful one’ arrived to throw a rope around it?  Sliding into the pit of Hell?

 

 

 

Anti-Catholic NCR Nag: Francis Didn’t Really Want Any MercyJubilee Pilgrims Anyway.

by

From the moment he walked out on the balcony, the FrancisEffect has been an enormous barrage of airy hype, nothing like the solid reality of Christ and His universe.

NC Reporter’s Robert Mickens writes:

Pope Francis is no longer drawing the massive crowds that were so evident in the first two years of his pontificate.

Statistics suggest that many fewer Christian pilgrims are coming to Rome to pray at the tombs of the apostles — or those of the saintly and not-so-saintly dead popes — that are found in various churches, crypts and catacombs throughout the Eternal City.

But even more worrying is that these pilgrims, and all other types of tourists, are no longer flocking to St Peter’s in record numbers to see the reigning pope himself.

I don’t believe numbers have ever been good for Francis.  Right-thinking people smelled a rat with Benedict fled.  You have to live in your television to embrace FrancisChurch.

This has led some scribes to declare that the Holy Year of Mercy, which Francis opened last Dec. 8 and will bring to a close at the end of next November, is doomed to be a colossal flop.

No crowds, no party.

Catholics who have been resistant to the Jesuit pontiff’s “revolution of tenderness and mercy” must be smiling. They have been terrified that his intention is to use the Jubilee to unleash a tidal wave of God’s mercy and forgiveness, even to the point of allowing divorced and remarried members of the church to return to receiving the sacraments.

God forbid. This just will not do.

These peoples’ greatest nightmare is that this borderline heretic pope, who never even earned a doctorate in theology, might be tempted to conform the church’s doctrine to “the spirit of the world” and end up peddling “cheap grace.”

This is not an exaggeration.

Of course it isn’t.  Only an effeminate harpie would be shocked to find otherwise.

There are even bishops — some of whom are in the College of Cardinals — who use these exact terms. But their greatest fear is that the doctrinally impoverished Francis could be duped to actually usher in — hold on your rosary beads! — the “Protestantization” of the Catholic church.

It is in incredible that fifty years after the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), there are still Catholics who continue to look with such contempt at their brothers and sisters who belong to the Reform churches and communities. More horrifying is that not a small number of them are comfortably ensconced in the Vatican or employed in the Roman Curia.

But it does not matter.

Pope Francis’ “revolution” is well underway and gaining momentum. Even if many millions of pilgrims do not come to Rome during the Holy Year, this phenomenon cannot be slowed down.

With the world and all its money-power behind it the NewMercy isn’t going away, that’s true.   But it will never be real and it will never replace the real Church.

Mickens’ visible hatred reveals the Satanic heart behind FrancisChurch.

In fact, the pope does not want huge crowds of people to come to Rome for the jubilee. He wants them to celebrate the yearlong event in their home dioceses, by being the first pope ever to encourage every diocesan cathedral around the world to have its own holy door. And not just the cathedrals, but also all significant shrines and even chapels in every prison.

Oh I see.  Francis doesn’t want anyone in Rome.  This is all supposed to happen at home and in prisons.  Maybe I’ve walked through a MercyDoor already by accident.  It’s funny I didn’t feel anything.

Perhaps the other old souls still stepping anywhere near a local Catholic parish didn’t notice their silly MercyDoors either.  In their ‘bitter contempt’ they thought those were just doors, nothing magical, bewitching, or spellbinding.

 

 

 

Fast Cheap Annulments: All This FrancisMercy Sure Feels Like Hell

by
Annulments: Vatican Rank and File Monsignor delivers the FrancisMercy news to the suffering peoples

Streamline annulments: Vatican monsignor delivers the gentle FrancisMercy news to the suffering peoples

The AP tells the world’s version of the new streamlined FrancisChurch annulments – one-stop family destruction, death of the Faith, and generations of Hell in just 45 quick days!  (Catch this frightening photo of the Vatican announcement.)

The modern ‘catholic’ annulment charade was already a terrible scandal, but there are very few people in the world who do not understand that ‘catholic’ annulments are also a fraud.  That’s why they all call them ‘catholic divorces.’  Because they are, and people know the emasculated Church is just lying about them.

These sacred unions the AmChurch keeps declaring ‘null’ were not null.  They were marriages.  To the Children they produced, they were parents.  You’re not too immature when you’re thirty-five.  You weren’t such a complete idiot that you didn’t know what you were doing.

In the FrancisGospel broken marriages are just mercy for women and children, so why not increase the mercy by making annulments simple formalities.  But these cheap annulments don’t actually declare anything true.  Once again they’re just using Christ’s Church to look the other way at sin and call it ‘mercy.’  That’s FrancisMercy, not God’s.  FrancisMercy hurts, a lot.

Pope Francis radically reformed the process for annulling marriages Tuesday, overhauling 300 years of church practice by creating a new fast-track annulment and doing away with an automatic appeal that often slowed the process down.

Three hundred years?  Try thousands.  It’s only in the past 50 years that they started handing out mass-produced fraudulent annulments.  Do you think God thinks that all these Church-wrecked marriages were never valid?  A good friend of mine got an annulment after fifteen years and five kids.  His wife was a notorious cheat, but they were a family once – a sad one.  Now they’re three or four sadder ones.  Thank you newChurch!  Problem solved.

Oh, but it’s complicated, and what about the abuse, the conflict, and neglect?  Marriage IS abuse, conflict, and neglect. That’s the point.

The move, which came a week after he said he was letting all rank-and-file priests grant absolution to women who have had abortions, was further evidence of his desire to make the church more responsive to the needs of ordinary faithful.

What was it responding to before, the Dalai Lama?

The new law on annulments goes into effect Dec. 8, the start of Francis’s Holy Year of Mercy, a yearlong jubilee during which the pope hopes to emphasize the merciful side of the church. It will speed up and simplify the annulment process by placing the onus squarely on bishops around the world to determine when a fundamental flaw has made a marriage invalid.

A Catholic needs a church annulment to remarry in the church, and a divorced Catholic who remarries civilly without one is considered an adulterer living in sin and is forbidden from receiving Communion.

The Communion issue is at the center of debate at the upcoming synod of bishops, a three-week meeting that gets underway in October. Progressive bishops favor a process by which these Catholics could eventually have access to the sacrament if they repent; conservatives say there can be no such wiggle room and that church teaching is clear that a marriage is indissoluble.

Catholics have long complained that it can take years to get an annulment, if they can get one at all. Costs can reach into the hundreds or thousands of dollars for legal and tribunal fees, though some dioceses have waived their fees.

“With this fundamental law, Francis has now launched the true start of his reform,” said Monsignor Pio Vito Pinto, the head of the Roman Rota, the church’s marriage court. “He is putting the poor at the center — that is the divorced, remarried who have been held at arms’ length — and asking for bishops to have a true change of heart.”

Reasons for granting annulments vary, including that the couple never intended the marriage to last or that one spouse didn’t want children.

The new law also says that “lack of faith” can also be grounds for an annulment, conforming to the belief of Francis and Pope Benedict XVI before him that a sacramental marriage celebrated without the faith isn’t really a marriage at all.

Francis’ biggest reform involves the new fast-track procedure, which will be handled by the local bishop and can be used when both spouses request an annulment or don’t oppose it.

This is going to shred the procedure so that it’s now completely at the discretion of each bishop with a ‘wink wink’ from Rome.  Most bishops are weasels and the rest will be pressured to conform.  Goodbye marriage.  Thank you new Pope of the family.  He hasn’t even gotten to the October Synod yet.

Paul VI ruined the Church by suppressing the Ancient Mass and bending every Church law beyond recognition.  Now Francis has arrived to wreck what’s left and bulldozer the rubble.  Hey, it’s all for the people!
