“Merciful discretion”?
Wow, one quickly realizes that this man could have an alternate career writing for the NYT, the WaPo or the DNC.
Allow the Latin Mass? Removal from office and left adrift and un supported. Too Pro Life and political about it? Laicized and kicked to the curb.
Mercy to my friends and my enemies not even justice.
Mercy to the wolves is cruelty to the sheep.
How’s that Rupnik investigation coming along?
Hearings scheduled?
Testimonies?
For the SJ’s to pull him said a lot.
For PF to reinstate him said more.
But what the heck
So-called victims are preparing for Christmas.
Probably not in a Catholic Church but preparing anyway.
Praying for the whole lot.
The good, the bad and the ugly.
“Merciful discretion” my foot. Theft is theft. Refer them to the police.
So, do these “merciful” discretions mean more cover-ups?
If we were to poll Catholics and trust in Pope, I wonder if he would get more than Biden?
He would know about comments that “serve more to fill the pages of the newspapers than correct behavior.”
That is precisely the currency of his regime.
This is the same Pope who accused whistleblowers (NOT the rapists they exposed) of causing scandal.
Truth in packaging. Truth in advertizing. Truth in all the news that is fit to print.
Abuse is being owned by another person. Rape is being violated in assault and battery.
A sodomite is an individual addicted to the vice of lust. Sodomy is assault and battery of another human being. The sodomite has chosen to forfeit his fully informed consent and indulge in hell right here on earth. The sodomite is a criminal and a scandal living in hell right here on earth.
“Merciful discretion.” Is that kind of like “mostly peaceful?”
