In Appointing Bishops, the Pope Leans Toward Beijing - sells out Chinese Catholics to the devil

More than once, I have written on the issue of the recognition of Communist China's Catholic Patriotic Association and the Vatican's recognition of this schismatic government church at the expense of China's real Catholics. Chinese Catholic bishops and laity alike have suffered decades of harassment, persecution, imprisonment and death at the hands of the communists. The government set up an "approved" church that mimics the real Church. 

Now, Francis will go down in history as the Pope who made a deal with the devil.

In Appointing Bishops, the Pope Leans Toward Beijing

He is preparing, that is, to grant the communist authorities the privilege of selecting candidates. And he is exiling to an island in the Pacific the highest ranking Chinese archbishop in the curia, contrary to the agreement. But in China, Cardinal Zen has already taken the lead in the rebellion

ROME, August 14, 2016 – In China, among the one hundred and nine Catholic bishops there are eight who have been consecrated at the behest of the communist authorities and who have never received the pope's approval, thereby incurring excommunication, a couple of them with children and lovers.

But for none other than these eight, by the end of this summer or at the latest before the end of the jubilee Francis is ready to perform a spectacular gesture: a pardon.
