Cardinal Expressed Careful Criticism: Now They Go After Him

The former German oligarch-journalist Kurt Gerhardt launched an online-petition against Cologne Cardinal Rainer Maria Woelki.

The reason: Woelki dared to criticise the German Synod.

With the words “I am a convinced democrat” (Rundschau-Online.de, February 14), Gerhardt wants to forbid Woelki to express his views.

Gerhardt believes that Protestantising the Church according to proposals made at the German Synod, will stop people from leaving the Church.

He doesn’t explain why the same measures had no beneficial effect on the Protestants who introduced them long ago.

Gerhardt knows that he is not a “lone fighter.” He has the oligarch media behind him which now uncritically publicise his initiative which aims at suppressing the “discussion” that the Synod presented as its alleged goal.

"The truth of the matter is that Pope Benedict has not fully resigned the office of pope."
That's a lie, @Thors Catholic Hammer . This is why I accuse you of telling them, btw. This, right here. He even SAID he resigned, no longer bears the power of office, and so on. Benedict isn't pope, either. That's another lie, but at this point who's counting?
"Benedict is in substantiall error [canon 188…More

"Benedict is in substantiall error [canon 188] concerning the object of his attempted resignation."

This is you making up a claim.

"Therefore the cardinals in the conclave acted unlawfully..."

This is you proceeding from an unproven claim as though it were true. Same day, same crazy parrot.

You either resign the papacy fully or not at all.
Benedict is in substantiall error [canon 188] concerning the object of his attempted resignation.
Therefore the cardinals in the conclave acted unlawfully [canon 359] in electing a pope [Bergoglio] whilst a valid pope[Benedict] still occupied the See of St. Peter

The German Synod can move forward: the Antichrist is pushing it.

These useless and mostly fat cardinals continue to prop up a manifest formal heretic like francis 1st as a “pope”.
Why?
