Prevost and Co, anyone involved in sexual abuse should not be pope
It is disturbing to see among the names of possible candidates for the papacy those of cardinals involved in scandals of corruption or sexual abuse. Like Robert Prevost, former prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, who is facing serious charges. Or the many linked to the McCarrick case.
Malore, Becciu and China: the system closes ranks around Parolin
The power that controls the mainstream media is suppressing or denying news that could damage the former Vatican Secretary of State in the race for the papacy. The most serious of these is the appointment by the regime of two Chinese bishops while the Chair of St Peter is vacant.
Dubia, gays, China, corruption: 7 priorities for the new Pope
Urgent action is needed to repair the scandals against the faith. These include the revocation of Fiducia supplicans, a clear response to the dubia, the restoration of the Church's hierarchical order, starting with the synods, and the revision of the agreement with China.
Moral theology a priority for the new Pope
Over the past 12 years, a misguided pastoral approach has reduced objective moral norms to distant ideals to be aspired to (at best). The next pontificate must rediscover them, starting from the primacy of conversion.
Parolin, Silvestrini's heir and Bergoglio's continuator
Cardinal Parolin is against everything pre-conciliar, he is the man of diplomatic success at any cost, the great manoeuvrer. But above all, he is the heir of Bergoglism, without the limitations of Bergoglio's character, but a continuation of Cardinal Silvestrini's progressive Catholic agenda. And this copy-paste from Semeraro's writings...
Parolin, the great manipulator who wants to be Pope
The former Secretary of State is currently in the lead, personally hunting for the missing votes to secure the papacy. And there is a manipulative management of the Congregations that prevents discussion of the serious problems facing the Church, and thus prevents the weaknesses of Cardinal Parolin from coming to light, from the Becciu case to the failed agreement with China. And the presence of Cardinal Zen in Rome....

Respect the law to ensure justice and avoid absolutism
The last pontificate was a triumph of arbitrariness. The proper exercise of authority must be restored, anchoring it once more in divine and natural law and in the good and objective order of the Church.
The Church must combat liturgical apartheid and abuse
The quality of the liturgy, a formidable instrument of evangelisation, is an indicator of the "state of health" of the Church. The new Pope will have to resume the work of reconciliation between the ancient and post-conciliar rites.
Jesus is the only Saviour, hence the mission of the Church
The constant condemnation of proselytism in general has emptied evangelisation of its meaning and promoted religious relativism. We must recover Jesus' command to proclaim the Gospel to every creature.
Dramatic clash between cardinals: Becciu excluded from conclave
After a 'fiery' Congregation, Cardinal Becciu takes a step back and withdraws from the upcoming conclave. Two documents have been unearthed to sideline the Cardinal, but new details about the accusations are emerging, adding to the mystery. The conclave begins on 7 May.
Doctrine and pastoral care, there is no room for contradictions
The "pastoral shift" of the last pontificate has led to the theory that the development of dogma can be resolved in its opposite. The new Pope has the task of re-proposing the true and vital meaning of the truth.
Conclave: Charity never contradicts God's commandments
The new Pope will have the task of picking up the threads of the Church's moral teaching and clarifying the attempts at subversion that have gone so far as to theorise an alleged conflict between charity and divine law, which must instead be recovered as the foundation of a morally good life.
