@MaryMmmc1 @inesanma I'm a little surprised that Francis, who reportedly has a pulmonary infection, is the only adult without a mask.
Remember when the people (male AND female) were supposed to listen to the Church, instead of the other way around?
"You can't listen to all of the people of God if you don't listen to women and sisters."
Thanks to @ChrisHerlinger for this fine report on an excellent evening with the @CRCfordham and a hopeful indication of the way forward... https://twitter.com/NCRonline/status/1641849850244534272
@OldArmyNurse4 That's fair, although I think in the case of people in such high public office (well, putatively) that affects so many people, I'm not sure one can legitimately insist on total privacy.
@seek_old_paths No, it's just based on my experience reading the Novus Ordo news every day. It seems to me that we hear about more and more such.
@ReneePa41886994 @FredSimonTLM "And the eye cannot say to the hand: I need not thy help; nor again the head to the feet: I have no need of you" (1 Cor 12:21).
Absolutely brilliant theology. If only the Popes, theologians, and doctors of the first 1900 years had thought of that!

Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa, the papal preacher, noted how #PopeFrancis' titles, including "Vicar of Jesus Christ" are listed as "historical" in the Holy See's directory.
"Vicar is one who acts in the absence of the leader, but Jesus is never absent from his church."
Read the latest update on Pope Francis' condition, including details of his visit to the paediatric oncology ward at Rome's Gemelli hospital:

Through her heart, His sorrow sharing,
All His bitter anguish bearing,
Lo! the piercing sword had passed.
Virgin most sorrowful, pray for us!
O most Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa warned officials of the Roman Curia against being overly nostalgic of the era after WW2 when "seminaries had abundant vocations."
"If those seminaries were filled with holy pastors...we wouldn't have to mourn so many scandals today."
Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!

@FrDesposito @MichaeliArchang @R0BINS0NCRUS0E5 @matthew__theo If I could, Father, please allow me to remark that the "lack of objective intention to will the good of the Church" isn't exactly a slam-dunk alternative either. But I agree that arguing from personal heresy is not all that effective - nor is it necessary.

@irishmirage I prefer "more Catholic than the Antipope".
@irishmirage Please tell me what was "quite the illuminating surprise" you got from dialogue with Jains. There is nothing affectionate about a relationship with unbelievers that does not seek their true good.
Have you noticed how many 'Eucharistic miracles' have suddenly been popping up all over the place? "For there shall arise false Christs & false prophets, and shall shew great signs & wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect" (Mt 24:24).

@mattpb88 Oh, sorry, I didn't see it. Well, what's there to respond to? We know Muslims are not pagans. They acknowledge one only God, Creator, whose existence can be known from reason alone. But they repudiate the Trinity. Their Allah is not the Father of Jesus Christ.

@RobM777 These false analogies really frustrate me. Nothing wrong with drawing analogies - but they must be consistent with Church teaching, not try to circumvent of replace it. As in: Forget what the Church teaches about the Papacy, just consider this analogy instead.
@irishmirage A mistake? It would be a blasphemous act making him at least suspect of heresy.
Funny how every time the semi-trads try to make a 'Passion of the Church' analogy fit, they always forget that in such an analogy, the Pope would be Christ, not St. Peter! When the Church is persecuted, the Pope is the VICTIM, not the perpetrator! #fsspx

Kennedy Hall custom-manufactures a flawed 'Passion of the Church' analogy to fit the semi-trad #SSPX position - A false analogy to circumvent #Catholic teaching on the Papacy. Convenient! And by the way: Francis isn't St. Peter - he's Judas. #catholic

@irishmirage <<< from those who have successfully evangelized Muslims in the past. You will also need to have a pretty good grasp of what he believes, what kind of Muslim he is, etc. Then you need to be well instructed in how to answer objections from Muslims.
@irishmirage The first thing you should do is recognize that he is a soul dwelling in darkness and in need of the light and grace of Christ, wherefore you ought to seek his conversion. Then you will want to prepare for this with prayer and fasting. Then I would suggest you get some advice >>>
