What's more, he's doing this with the Lutheran World Federation, which includes all the gay marriage and female ordination churches, like Sweden and Denmark. The American representation there, for instance, is the ELCA, the gay-marriage, female-ordination one; none of the based, conservative American denominations are represented.

Orthodox here: wtf guys?

still a catholic

still believe a man can run some water out of the tap and talk to it and it becomes holy water.

wake up.

When Francis got in, I was so happy, he seemed like the best Pope, but now he's just turned out to be some weirdo you doesn't give a flying fuck about Catholicism, and says Muslims are great and shit.

and he's in it for life.

Thanks for your input token fedora.

NWO Jew Shill.

>Depose Antipope CB

Benedict literally did more to anyone else to fight the child predators since he was Ratzinger. John Paul blocked him, the same John Paul who kissed the Koran. Benedict, in his recent autobiography, said there was a powerful gay, leftist lobby in the Vatican that tried to force his hand on a bunch of things. I wonder if they forced him to resign (his butler leaked all of his private letters, and he resigned in the wake of that).

6. In addition, [by this Our Constitution, which is to remain valid in perpetuity We enact, determine, decree and define:-] that if ever at any time it shall appear that any Bishop, even if he be acting as an Archbishop, Patriarch or Primate; or any Cardinal of the aforesaid Roman Church, or, as has already been mentioned, any legate, or even the Roman Pontiff, prior to his promotion or his elevation as Cardinal or Roman Pontiff, has deviated from the Catholic Faith or fallen into some heresy:

(i) the promotion or elevation, even if it shall have been uncontested and by the unanimous assent of all the Cardinals, shall be null, void and worthless;

(ii) it shall not be possible for it to acquire validity (nor for it to be said that it has thus acquired validity) through the acceptance of the office, of consecration, of subsequent authority, nor through possession of administration, nor through the putative enthronement of a Roman Pontiff, or Veneration, or obedience accorded to such by all, nor through the lapse of any period of time in the foregoing situation;

(iii) it shall not be held as partially legitimate in any way;

(iv) to any so promoted to be Bishops, or Archbishops, or Patriarchs, or Primates or elevated as Cardinals, or as Roman Pontiff, no authority shall have been granted, nor shall it be considered to have been so granted either in the spiritual or the temporal domain;

(v) each and all of their words, deeds, actions and enactments, howsoever made, and anything whatsoever to which these may give rise, shall be without force and shall grant no stability whatsoever nor any right to anyone;

(vi) those thus promoted or elevated shall be deprived automatically, and without need for any further declaration, of all dignity, position, honour, title, authority, office and power.

Pope Paul IV,
“Cum ex Apostolatus Officio”

>shall be deprived of position, office, power, etc automatically

Francis is not the pope.

>Francis is not the pope.
Then who is?

>prior to his promotion
Key phrase here. RCC doesn't believe Popes can deviate. So for them, it is "prior to his promotion".

Absolutely wrong though, RCC never taught that popes cannot deviate. Go look at the definition of infallibility and what it means. A pope can fall into heresy and if he does he is no longer the pope because heresy incurs an automatic excommunication. A person who is excommunicated cannot be the leader of that which he isn't even a member of.

Who is the pope when there's an interregnum?

(hint: nobody)

Thank God I am an Orthodox Serb

So the Rock is out of order?

Still a lutheran. I don't base my faith on people's actions, heretic

Looks like he won lads

Church of Sweden?

> Christian acting in a Christian manner is terrible.
OP leave.

>Thou Shalt Celebrate the Reformation
What?

Yes

THROW AWAY THE KEY

If he's trying to work on reuniting the church on reformation day, this is good. If he's joining for literally any other reason then this is fucking horrid.

The catholic church is gone, it has been taken over by the marxist establishment, there is no catholic church right now.

The event's been a planned since before Francis. The point is to move forward in some reconciliation with Lutherans, and that involves engaging the largest Lutheran organization, the LWF. Female ordination and gay marriage are still considered new obstacles that these liberal churches have created to unity, but the only point is to not throw away the entire decades of effort.
The conservative churches in ILC just recently (within the last couple years) began a dialogue with the Catholic Church. That dialogue was opened with the public understanding that it might go a bit better than the RC-LWF dialogue since the ILC doesn't ordain women or marry gays, but the larger stumbling block there is that ILC doctrine explicitly holds the Pope to be the Antichrist. They're also further removed from the belief in the apostolic succession the Orthodox and Catholics share.

We had a fucking based Pope Benedict XVI but look what everyone did, they backlashed him using muh pedophilla ruckus because the (((establishment))) doesnt like him. Hell even protestcucks doesnt like him and if they dont like him, that is a sign that he is doing a good job.

Its not the first time. Secular power is failing. The Church will either hold up or not. Let's not let 2,000 years of history crumble over trivial shit like talking to heretics.
