It was for the purposes of the media-backed FrancisProp machine.<\/p>\n<p>Some say the jubilee mercy letter brilliantly places Confession in a good light with a huge chunk of the apostate world, but that doesn&#8217;t matter because it won&#8217;t help.\u00a0 Those people don&#8217;t care.\u00a0 They&#8217;re not going to run down to Confession now, learn the Faith, or practice it.\u00a0 And as the Mahound said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If the Pope were truly interested in offering absolution to those who were a party to abortion, he would implore them to see a priest <i>today<\/i>, not wait until the start of <i>his own<\/i> Jubilee Year on December 8.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s all just politics.<\/p>\n<p>So what about the SSPX?\u00a0 It&#8217;s a coincidence that the very same issue recently raised by Madison Bp. Morlino and touted by Fr. Z, that of &#8216;jurisdiction for Confessions,&#8217; should come up as FrancisMercy just when it was being used as a cudgel.\u00a0 Since the FrancisEra was imposed, Michael Voris, former leader of the faithful obedient Catholic stalwarts, and his friend Fr. Paul Nicholson, have been ranting against the &#8216;evil group of disobedient SSPX traditionalists&#8217; and dividing Pope Benedict&#8217;s beloved movement.\u00a0 Mundabor sees this latest FrancisMercy as an opening to more of the same.\u00a0 According to him, it&#8217;s all about the Synod and neutralizing the opposition.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I do not trust this. I do not trust the time, I do not trust the motives, and most importantly I do not trust the person. I fear Francis even when he bears gifts, because a scheming and heretical pope cannot have in mind anything good for Catholicism.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A liberal is a liberal is a liberal.\u00a0 You can&#8217;t be part liberal.\u00a0 It just makes you liberal.\u00a0 Just the same you can&#8217;t be part heretic.\u00a0 There is nothing good or Catholic about liberalism. There are only faithful and unfaithful.\u00a0 You have to accept the whole package, not hem and haw over interpretations, social justice and sustainability, and play rhetorical Parcheesi.\u00a0 Everybody knows you&#8217;re a dishonest fraud and a cheat; a traitor to the cause.<\/p>\n<p>The faithful Catholic establishment loves to remind us of Pope Paul VI and his chaos, how in the end he pulled through with Humanae Vitae.\u00a0\u00a0 Wow.\u00a0 He did something Catholic.\u00a0 The man suppressed the Mass of the Apostles, quite possibly one of the most destructive things anyone has ever done.\u00a0 He gave us the notorious Cardinal Bernardin and the nasty bishops conferences.\u00a0 He handed his tiara to the UN because he didn&#8217;t want to look fancy or powerful.\u00a0 Nice.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think God appreciated those changes.\u00a0 Those castaways meant something to Him.\u00a0 But you don&#8217;t have to take my word for it. Just look around you, or are you unfamiliar with the appearance of death?\u00a0 This world is a lot more like Venus today than Earth.\u00a0 Do you know how hot it must be walking around Venus right now?\u00a0 Have you heard of the boiled frog?<\/p>\n<p>Francis is not both liberal <em>and<\/em> Catholic.\u00a0 That&#8217;s impossible.\u00a0 Doctrine is practice is application, and I&#8217;m not talking about recycling.\u00a0 The entire planet knows for which team the Pope plays.\u00a0 The only ones who don&#8217;t are we faithful foolish few.\u00a0 We are the ducks for the big dinner.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I do not trust the time and the motives, because it seems to me that Francis is opening the war on the sacraments with a manoeuvre aimed at disorienting his enemy. He is \u201cmerciful\u201d to the SSPX: how will the conservative Catholics, then, be angry at him when he is \u201cmerciful\u201d to adulterers? I smell a huge German rat here, and whilst many German bishops will feign mock opposition or even mock indignation, I am pretty sure they all know where this is going to end, and will play the game for all they&#8217;re worth. Adultery is well worth an SSPX confession, and they will now shout even louder that once Francis is \u201cmerciful\u201d to the \u201cschismatic\u201d SSPX ( I know, I know\u2026 slander and false accusations never get old) how can he refuse \u201cmercy\u201d to the oh so acutely suffering concubines and perverts?<\/p>\n<p>But most importantly, I do not trust the person. Not for one second will I think that Francis has suddenly become an orthodox Catholic. Please understand that Francis is not pursuing a less heretical agenda today than he was yesterday. He will not start today to like the rosary-counting Catholics he so much despises. The Evil Clown that went to bed yesterday evening is the same that woke up this morning. <em>Of course<\/em> he is throwing a bone to the conservative crowd <em>before he serves the sacrilegious entree to his heretical followers, <\/em>or at least tries to let them have as much of the dish as he can<em>.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Throwing a bone to the conservative crowd before he serves the sacrilegious entree.&#8221;\u00a0 Mundabor is right.\u00a0 That sounds like just what we should expect from our papal Obama-fan.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In his passionate, battling manner Mundabor has an excellent point about the double-edge sword of FrancisMercy laid upon the planet on September 1st.
