Dutch Bishop Refuses to Take Part in the Youth Synod

Good on Bishop Mutsaerts! I'm surprised that a Dutch Bishop would make such a call, but spot on!

From Gloria.tv

Auxiliary Bishop Robert Mutsaerts of ‘s-Hertogenbosch, chosen by the Dutch bishops’ conference to represent them at the Youth Synod, will not attend.

Mutsaerts announced on RkKerk.nl (September 19) that he does not consider it “the right time to hold a Synod on Youth, considering the studies and the news about [homo]sexual abuse”.

Roermond Auxiliary Bishop Everardus de Jong will replace Mutsaerts.

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.
