False Charity - The pope must die!

https://mundabor.wordpress.com/2023/03/31/45547/

I never cease to be amazed at how many people confuse charity with simply feeling good with themselves.

Francis is ill, and the rumour mill is, predictably, spinning. We hope he dies soon. Why do we do that? Because he has an extremely important function and public role, which he has abused in the most grievous way. He is a real and present danger to the faith of Catholic and to the reputation of the Church. Bar a miracle, he will remain so until the day he dies. It is perfectly legitimate – and I would add, the only decent thing to do – to hope that he dies today. Alas, it’s not happening, but here’s hoping.

What, I think, Christian charity commands that we owe Francis is: a) the wish for his painless death and b) the wish for his salvation. I have prayed for both on a number of occasions. Let’s hope I need to intensify my prayers soon.

However, on the second point one must soberly recognise that the man’s salvation is improbable. It is very rare that God allows someone who has been his enemy for many decades to repent and die at peace with Him. It must, realistically, be even rarer when the scoundrel in question has damaged the Church he had the duty to guide and protect.

This is why, in Catholic tradition, a lifetime of prayer has been traditionally seen as a sign of predestination, and a lifetime of enmity with the Church as a sign of reprobation. We can’t just say “we don’t know, God decides, we just need to shut up”. If this were the case, then a life spent in prayerful service to God would not be a better indicator of salvation than a life spent as a gang killer in Mexico.

I have just reposted an old post that dealt with another side of the same issue: if, to you, Francis’ continued destruction is more important to you than the welfare of the Church, do you really love the Church? What is more important, your emotional, feel-good false charity, or Holy Mother Church?

No. I hope he dies soon. I hope he dies today. I wish he were already dead as I am writing his. And yes, this guy looks like reprobation like no other person I know or knew of.

But I have prayed for his salvation anyway, because his soul has immeasurable value.

This clown in his "conservativism" fails to understand the most basic truth about Catholicism: it has never been a conservative faith. It is a radical one, because the message Jesus brought was radical to the core, and those who opposed him ideologically did so on the basis of conservatism and orthodoxy.

Jesus calls the faithful not to love those we agree with, or who are like us. He calls us to love those who hate us, and those we ourselves have grown to hate. He calls us to love the stranger, the outsider. He calls us to care for the poor and outcast with the same love we have for our own family. He refuses none of us. He taught us that loud, performative religion for clout is worthless to him; it gives its own reward on earth. He calls on us to do what is right, not what is easy. He taught us that God our Father loves us as his own children, and his mercy is without limit, if our repentance is sincere. He died so that we could be forgiven.

He did not teach us that only those who God has burdened the least, or burdened in a way that is "acceptable" to the congregation, can find their way to salvation. The tradcaths have absolutely no right to stand in the way of the repentant faithful, living as God calls us to do, no matter how they feel about the burdens some of us were given. That is not for them to decide, and it is not the teaching of the Church.

Catholics who do not believe that God's mercy and love are without limit do not believe in the faith which they profess.

I don't think the blog entries I posted have done justice to how much of a cunt this guy is. Here's one from another time the pope pissed him off(I think he said that guy civil unions weren't that bad or something) :

Just A Short One

I have been undecided all day whether I should completely ignore Francis’ latest stunt, or I should excoriate him in the way he deserves on this earth (before the excoriations in hell, which will be much worse. ..) I have, in the end, decided for a middle way. I will keep it short and sweet, and move on with my life. This little, very possibly perverted, Church-hating, Christ-hating, Catholic-hating bastard (with my apologies to bastards; who, in the end, have done nothing wrong themselves, in strong contrast to Francis) had to find another way to make headlines after all the rest failed and he discovered he is, in his old age, ignored by everyone but a handful of professional boot-lickers. So-called “civil partnerships”, he must have thought, would do admirably. Next on his plate, I suspect, bestiality, incest, and (you guessed it) coprophagia. I would really not be surprised. Die soon, Frankie boy. Satan is eagerly awaiting.
