Blessed are Recyclers and Ecumenists! Francis has Six New Beatitudes

What’s one more novelty…

Blessed are Recyclers and Ecumenists!
Francis has Six New Beatitudes

Offering the Novus Ordo worship service for his adherents in Malmö, Sweden, on November 1, Francis preached a sermon in which he introduced six new quasi-beatitudes for the “modern Christian.” No, he didn’t officially introduce new beatitudes — and Jimmy Akin will no doubt take great pleasure in pointing it out — but that’s not even the main concern here, because the effect will be similar.

Here is the relevant excerpt from the homily, straight from the Vatican web site:

The Beatitudes are in some sense the Christian’s identity card.
