Three Francis Appointed Cardinals Offer Their Hats and Rings to Women. Fr. Z Responds.

'Blatteroon'! What a wonderfully descriptive word to describe these idiots. Remember, they're going to vote in electing the next Pope!

From Fr Z's Blog

Yesterday I received a copy of George Weigel’s new book
The Next Pope: The Office of Peter and a Church in Mission
US HERE – UK HERE
The College of Cardinals, as the official titular clergy of Rome, has the mandate to elect the Bishop of the See of Rome.
Traditionally the office of the Bishop of Rome and the Petrine Ministry go hand in hand, although it seems that Romanitas is not necessarily inextricably bound exclusively with the See of Rome.  I digress.
Were there to be a conclave in the near future, what might happen?  That depends on the make up of the College.
At Crux, I read a piece about something stupidly incoherent.
Spanish cardinals offer their red hats to women, calling the zucchetto an ‘illusion’
Three Spanish-born cardinals on Wednesday offered up their “red hats and cardinal rings” to any woman who wants to be a member of the Catholic Church’s most exclusive club.
[…]
Grandstanding.
Cardinal … Cristobal Lopez, Archbishop of Rabat, Morocco
Cardinal … Juan Jose Omella, Archbishop of Barcelona, Spain
Cardinal … Pedro Barreto, Archbishop of Huancayo, Peru
All three born in Spain. All three appointed by Francis.
The only response to these three blatteroons is:
RESIGN the College of Cardinals.
Just. Get. Out.

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.
