This just in from The Catholic World Report in an article entitled "The hyperbolic and exhausting pontificate of Francis," by Carol E. Olson: "My impression is that many Catholics are weary of the seemingly constant addresses, homilies, interviews, texts—many of which read like lectures—that come from the Holy Father
"Popes, as important as they are, come and go; the Word of God endures forever." READ ARTICLE HERE
REMNANT COMMENT: If the Synod on the Family goes as we fear it well might, the one silver lining will be a massive unification of sincere Catholics all over the world. The Remnant is not interested in told-ya-so polemics. The souls (and perhaps even the lives) of all of our children are at stake now.
If we're to survive the coming purge of all things Catholic and if we're to keep the Faith, we need numbers, NOT vindication. The Remnant longs for the day when we can all say, without the slightest whiff of bitterness or animosity: We're all traditional Catholics now!
