Indoctrination: "Francis Treats Cardinals Like Freshmen" - Müller

en.news4 years ago

Cardinal Gerhard Müller, 74, criticised (IlMessaggero.it, September 1) the Vatican’s silence on Cardinal Zen, 90, “Next month there will be an unfair trial. No one has raised the very serious matter of our Brother Zen."

Zen could not attend the August consistory because his passport was confiscated in view of his September trial.

Müller hopes that Zen [whom the Vatican has abandoned] will not be abandoned. The consistory would have been an opportunity to show solidarity with him but “nothing” happened. Müller believes that the Holy See keeps quiet to please Beijing.

On the Curia Reform, Müller said “ironically and with a hint of bitterness” that the cardinals were confronted with a Constitution already in force and unchangeable,

"It is as if we were treated like freshmen, as if we had to be indoctrinated."

What a shocking human being Jorge is.

He's not shocking. His behavior is typical of what happened in the 1970s when lefties took over the seminaties and religious orders.
Those Catholics who rightly rejected leftist ideology were ostracized. There were priests and sisters who were pushed out in favor of homosexuals and non believers.

Treated like Freshmen

Does anyone else think it is possible that resentment is quietly building amongst the cardinals and that with the exception of new ideologues like McElroy en Steiner, the new cardinals from far off places, and will cause a backlash that will make them unlikely to vote fo Tagle, who is far too close to the Jesuits and Francis?

Just because the media loves Tagle doesn't mean that he'll be a serious candidate in the next conclave
