Bishops Unimpressed by "Synodality"

Well, I'm glad to see that Francis's plans to destroy the Church by aping the dying Anglican 'Communion' is being resisted. Even Nichols of Westminster, a flaming liberal, solidly onside with the Culture of Death, opposes it.

From Gloria.tv

Bishops at the Youth Synod took “umbrage over the new language” used in the final document's draft - Cardinal Gracias of Mumbai, India, told CruxNow.com (October 25).

Gracias said that there was “some resistance” against the document because it has so much on “synodality when we really haven’t discussed it” - a proof that the document on "synodality" was written without synodality.

Especially bishops from countries with Anglican presence remained unconvinced, CruxNow.com writes. They pointed out that “synodality” could be seen as the Church moving towards a vote system for settling [or creating] disputes similar to Anglicanism.

A strong opponent of “synodality” was liberal Westminster Cardinal Vincent Nichols. He argued that non-Catholic churches have sufficiently shown that "synodality" simply “doesn’t work”.

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.
