The Synod seeks to replace believers with unbelievers. Bertolt Brecht suggested, tongue in cheek, a similar strategy to the East German government after anti-government riots in 1953:
After the uprising of the 17th of June
The Secretary of the Writers’ Union
Had leaflets distributed on the Stalinallee
Which stated that the people
Had squandered the confidence of the government
And could only win it back
By redoubled work [quotas]. Would it not in that case
Be simpler for the government
To dissolve the people
And elect another?
Speaking of replacing believers with nonbelievers, I once attended a Church meeting with an order of “liberal” Franciscans (not all are like those people) who placed a placard on our tables which read. “We accept all those rejected by the church.” They left in a huff after I asked if it had been written by Satan. We quickly became associated with a more traditional order of Franciscans.
We’ve had the experimental Church of post Vatican 2 and I’m tired of it.
They pretend to listen but it’s only to certain things.
If the next Pope starts taking disciplinary actions he will be marked as worse than Hitler. Always happens in undisciplined children who are narcissists at heart.
It doesn’t surprise me or even bother me that “some” within the Church are trying to undermine IT.
What does bother me is the deafening silence from bishops, priests, and deacons.
If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.

Pretty sure the Synodapalians have taken this as their mantra.
Conversing in the Holy Spirit.
Jesus always goes out to rescue the one who wandered away from the 99. Dialog with welcoming spirit in union with Church teaching is mercy.
Love is Love, [?] and activities that are unnatural before God and man is not love. Counterfeit love at best. Lust is lust. Whether its heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual, the act outside of marriage as ordained by nature and nature’s God, is sinful.
If the Synod on Synodailty produces anything other than truth, which has guided her Holy Catholic Church through 2,000 years, of which the occasional storm of heresies lashes aginist her hull, then we will sail through this storm as well. Jesus Christ. The same yesterday, today and forever. Viva Christo Rey.

But Philip, these Synodapalians** aren’t saying “conversing in the Holy Spirit “. Notice they’re just saying “in the Spirit”. There are of course other spirits out there, ones no human in his right mind wants anything to do with.
** ‘Synodapalians’. Thanks, WK Aiken, I’m absolutely stealing that.
While I’m critical of the wayBp. Strickland criticized the pope on Twitter (but not THAT he did so), what he calls the pope’s “program of undermining the Deposit of Faith”certainly applies to every synod of this pontificate. There is this Catholic You Tuber Michael Lofton, who is affiliated with Catholic Answers and other mainstream Catholic apostolates accusing Strickland of slandering the pope.

“slandering the pope.” Slander is a lie about an individual. An untruth.
There at no way criticizing another bishop is slander. Maybe detraction but if one did it publicly, and the other responds publicly (admonishing them) you can’t just call it a sin to do that. Well, in upside down world you can but it’s not accurate
