Abandoned and Betrayed by the Church By Peter West

     As a cradle Catholic, and now an ex-Catholic, I described myself as abandoned and betrayed by the Church. Almost every week the Third World Pope comes out with a new politically correct announcement to make the elite happy. But, I am not the only one feeling this way:

“Cardinal Gerhard Müller said this week that many bishops today are involved in “a blatant process of Protestantizing” the Catholic Church, leaving many of the faithful confused and disoriented. In a powerful interview published Tuesday in Catholic World Report, the former prefect of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith had particularly strong words for his fellow German bishops. A group of these bishops, led by the president of the German Bishops’ Conference, Cardinal Reinhard Marx, “see themselves as trendsetters of the Catholic Church on the march into modernity,” Müller warned. These German bishops “consider the secularization and de-Christianization of Europe as an irreversible development,” he said, and for this reason have abandoned the “New Evangelization,” since it is in their view “a battle against the objective course of history, resembling Don Quixote’s battle against the windmills.”

     Having succumbed to modernity and defeatism, these German bishops believe that “all the doctrines of the faith that are opposed to the ‘mainstream,’ the societal consensus, must be reformed,” he added. The doctrines requiring reform encompass blessing for homosexual couples, intercommunion with Protestants, relativizing the indissolubility of sacramental marriage, the abolition of priestly celibacy, and approval for sexual relations before and outside of marriage, he said. Meanwhile, “the faithful who take Catholic doctrine seriously are branded as conservative and pushed out of the Church, and exposed to the defamation campaign of the liberal and anti-Catholic media,” he said.

     The same crisis of faith is also felt in Australia, but we are a little behind the wave of history. But, it is inevitable that this process of de-Christianisation will continue as long as the toxic politically correct culture of the present regime continues. The answer, of course, is to end the rule of the decadent elites and their poisonous waste products. That is the real problem we face, which flows through almost everything today.
