But Francis banalized divine mercy, stripping it from the dimension of judgment and transforming it in "mercinism." It's true that the Christian God is a welcoming father that never tires of forgiving, but a grasp of conscience, a conversion, is required from the son. But from Francis' preaching, it's almost as if God has the duty to forgive when faced with the right to forgiveness demanded by the creature. This is why secularists and unbelievers like Pope Francis so much: he confirms them in their choices. But in this way, he confuses those who don't feel confirmed in the Faith and see the entire operation as a concession to the world. www.churchmilitant.com/…/italian-vatican…

All the seminaries weren't like that. It depends on the rector and the profs he hires.

That notwithstanding, seminary profs are usually a reflection of the time and place of their studies.

Do you remember good seminaries?

Before Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger ascended the papal throne in 2005 as Pope Benedict XVI, he had been investigating the disturbing case of a wayward priest named Father Marcial Maciel. When Benedict XVI started his papacy, he promised to cleanse the Church of the “filth”—likely a direct reference to Maciel.

 

Own comment: 

There is no greater condemnation of Bergoglio than that all the people who worked against poor Pope Benedict XVI in his modest attempts to re-vitalise the Church and re-orient it towards something reminiscent of Catholicism seem to be in love with Bergoglio.

It says all abouut the difference between the two pontificates and the two men.
