A Hegelian Papacy? Catholics rush to memorize the Faith of their Fathers.
A Hegelian Papacy?
“Thus I make it known to you that from the end of the 19th century and shortly after the middle of the 20th century…the passions will erupt and there will be a total corruption of morals… As for the Sacrament of Matrimony, which symbolizes the union of Christ with His Church, it will be attacked and deeply profaned.

It is the duty of any pope to speak plainly on matters of grave importance, particularly in faith and morals. A failure to do so when silence means the growth of discord and confusion among the faithful is a terrifying thing to contemplate.
We cannot speak for Peter. We need him to speak for us. Pray that he finds his voice.
