Yves Congar, O.P. is “of blessed memory” only to Bergoglio and his fellow liberal and anti-Catholic clerics of the 60’s for whom unbridled ecumenism — nothing less than a universal religion replete with competing, contradictory, and logically conflicting gods and doctrines — was the ultimate schema, design, and objective: the synthesis of all religions through a fraudulent and logically irreconcilable conflation of deities. The resulting “Ecumenical Deity” bears no resemblance to the Catholic conception of God articulated through Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, the Church Fathers, and 2000 years of Church Dogma and Teaching. To be fair, we must say that it would bear no resemblance to any other religion that understands itself and its own identity as both unique and discrete from every “other religion”. In other words, this attempt to fuse, or commingle the deities of several thousand religions worldwide such that to worship one particular deity, or god, is understood as equally and simultaneously worshiping every other god is unprecedented. It clearly is not compatible with monotheistic religions which worship one deity only, to the exclusion of every other deity, such as Christianity, Judaism, and Islam — each of which (until Francis) repudiates the other two.
In easily understandable terms, for
a Muslim to claim that in prayer he is also worshiping
Jesus Christ at the same time — will literally cost him his head.
Doing so in Islam is considered
Logic 101: True or False — but not bothIt does not take an educated Catholic, or even a well-educated Catholic, let alone the Catholic intellectual, to understand the logical breach that such a pan-ecumenical endeavor entails. It simply stands to reason: two (or many more) mutually exclusive and absolutely antagonistic religions cannot be reconciled in a rational world, that is to say, in a world inseparable from the most basic logical canons: there are are only two possible truth-values a statement can have: “It is True or It is False” — and every statement is either true or false — but not both. Let us state this even more simply: one cannot both be and not be a Catholic (or Muslim, or Jew, or Hindu, etc.). The most basic tenets and concepts of each religion — by which it is defined — are exclusive of other religions — whether we, or Jorge, like it or not. Let us be absolutely clear about this: Ecumenism is an abhorrent concept to both Islam or Judaism — it is a novel and spurious concept unique to the “Post-Conciliar catholicism” that emerged from — and was anathema prior to — that counter-Catholic Council called Vatican II.
What Congar eagerly sought— and what
Bergoglio ruthlessly implemented — as we see above, was a “different
church” other than
the
Roman Catholic Church of 2000 years — while retaining the name as
a misnomer necessary to fostering its illegitimate credibility.
Francis may yet get it — but at the cost of schism. His (and his predecessors’) counterfeit “Post-Conciliar-catholic-church” has long since ceased to resemble the authentic Roman Catholic Church prior to Vatican II. When the charade utterly fails — and it would appear imminent — and the pews empty (together with heterosexual seminaries), the “Post-Conciliar-catholic-church” will be unsustainable: it will be bereft of the eagerly sought contributions of the Faithful with which it is swollen, and which it has much abused on projects having nothing to do with either God or the Faith, and most especially with the propagation of the Faith. Awoken from the illusion of a spurious continuity with the 2000 year old Church of their forefathers — now preempted and dispossessed — the truly Faithful will recognize that Catholicism and Paganism — that Christ and Pachamama — are absolutely distinct and irreconcilable, and totally inimical to each other — that they must choose Christ and His One, True, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, of which He alone is the Head and we the members, to the exclusion of all else (and every imposter), especially the World and its “friendship”1 for which Bergoglio and the Modernist Episcopacy lusts ... together with the increasingly distinct possibility of Schism.
Understanding this clearly, the prospect of Schism increasingly appears likely. Indeed, Saint Paul warns us:
The hour
soon approaches when sides must be chosen — and at great cost.
