MUSINGS: Something Seems Off About the Synod on Synodality
Some thoughts on the state of the Church
Someone asked on Quora: “Why does this Synod process seem askew?”
Here’s what I answered: The Synod on Synodality is a scam designed to destroy the Catholic Church from within. It’s not just me saying this: Cardinal Gerhard Mueller from Germany and some other brave bishops and cardinals have asserted the same thing.
The Synod takes authority away from the bishops and intentionally involves non-Catholics, even non-Christians, in the decision-making to determine the future of the Church. Groups who specifically tried to speak up for traditional Church values got silenced.
In today’s atheist, woke cancel culture, there is only one way this can go:
toward “ecumenism” (read: a merging of the Catholic faith with other religious tenets and views; the Eucharist being given to anyone who wants it regardless of faith)
toward “equity” (read: female priests, homosexual and transgender priests, monks, and nuns…that means biological men in convents!)
toward “social justice” (priests being allowed to get married; parishes entirely without priests being run by laypeople, Gospels watered down to be more “inclusive”; liturgy being altered to suit a more “fair and modern worldview”; official pro-abortion stance; environmentalism more important than biblical teachings)
Many saints and Marian apparitions have prophesied that the Church will undergo the Passion of Christ, from suffering and death to ultimate resurrection, but there will be much, much smaller numbers of faithful in the end. Traditionalists will be forced underground, to hold Masses in secret.
We’re almost there; Pope Francis extended the Synod on Synodality until 2024; by then, the Church will be finished.
All we true Catholics can do is hold on by our fingernails—cling to the founder of our Church, Jesus Christ, and his true teachings, as well as the original traditions of the early Christians.
Pray the Rosary every day and don’t despair. Most of all, do not leave Mother Church in her hour of need.
Even if it looks like Satan is winning, he is not. Remember, we know how the story ends.
