The Works Of Ignorance
The intrepid Pontiff has given us another example of his half-childish, half-socialist mentality.
Speaking about the works of mercy, the Pontiff has conveniently omitted to remind his audience of the fact that there are not only corporal, but also spiritual works of mercy; of which some, like “instruct the ignorant, “admonish the sinner” and “counsel the doubtful” are so accurately avoided in this pontificate that one wonders whether the old man is aware of their existence in the first place. Unless, of course, admonish the sinner would mean, for him, making the Traditionalist aware of the grave sin of loving Catholicism, and so on.
The problem, though, does not stop here. It seems that everything that does not reek of call for redistribution does not appear in Francis' radar. You will, for example, not see him embarking in a, erm, crusade in favour of that very endangered work of mercy: to bury the dead. You won't, because it smells of Catholicism, and Francis simply doesn't like Catholicism. But give him an excuse whatsoever to plead for more Socialism, and he will embrace it with enthusiasm whenever he is not writing he a stupid, anti-Catholic and anti-Capitalist apostolic exhortation.
A three years old who thinks himself wise has become Pope; or, alternatively, an evil man caring only for his own popularity.
One of the works so mercy is to bear injustice patiently. There's no doubt we are been trained strongly in that.

As a sociologist, let me remind that organization is not viable that does not have centralized leadership. The leadership has to be validated as legitimate, must be recognized by the membership as such and must have the power of sanction. This formula has been the success of the Church of Rome for two thousand years. but was mostly lost during the 20th Century. This man, Bergoglio, is completing the process. Now, you may argue that God will not let that happen. Maybe so, but maybe God does not calculate His faithfulness to His Church as the organization claims that He does.
I agree with you, and this is another reason why generation-long Sedevacantism makes no sense.
Also note that Bergoglio wants to reduce the power of the papacy only when it is convenient to him. His heavy-handed approach with the FFI shows he knows the issues around power and authority perfectly well.
God will not allow him or his successors to destroy the Church. But I am bracing myself for popes in jeans, singing commie songs, among the jubilations of the reds.
