Cardinal Brandmüller Criticises Communion on the Hand, Mercy Ideology
Good on His Eminence! The Cardinal was one of the four who signed the Dubia, asking for clarification of some points of Francis' theology that can, and are being, interpreted in an heretical sense, opposed to the Magisterium of Christ's Church. The Dictator Pope, of course, refused to answer.
When a Prelate like His Eminence speaks out in support of the Faith, in opposition to the swill that Rome is spewing forth, many people say, 'Yes, but he does x and y, so he's part of the problem!' My reaction is to pray for him and to support his efforts to defend Catholicism.

“It is evident that receiving Holy Communion on the tongue while kneeling expresses the faith in Christ's real presence better than Communion in the hand while standing”, according to Cardinal Walter Brandmüller.
Talking to LaFedeQuotidiana.it (July 22), Brandmüller, one of the two living Dubia cardinals, further criticises Pope Francis' mercy ideology,
“Mercy is only true if it does not contradict but is in harmony with the other Christian virtues: prudence, temperance, fortitude.”

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
