Updated. “Heretical voices within the Catholic Church clamor for change. Their radical agenda at the Synod on Synodality is clear: Distort doctrine, subvert tradition, and dismantle the hierarchical nature of the Church.

With refreshing clarity, authors Jose Antonio Ureta and Julio Loredo de Izcue explain the present crisis in their new book, The Synodal Process Is A Pandora’s Box: 100 Questions & Answers. Every page offers wisdom, insight, and truth. Every answer unmasks the sophistry, deliberate confusion, and heresy behind the Synod.

Cardinal Raymond Burke notes in his foreword, “Synodality and its adjective, synodal, have become slogans behind which a revolution is at work to change radically the Church’s self-understanding, in accord with a contemporary ideology which denies much of what the Church has always taught and practiced.”

The Synodal Process Is A Pandora’s Box is a cry of alarm. Find out why faithful Catholics have a moral duty to stand fast and resist the normalization of unnatural sin, women’s ordination, the reception of Holy Communion by adulterous “remarried” divorcees, and the egalitarian democratic leveling within the Catholic Church.”

The Synodal Process Is a Pandora’s Box: 100 Questions & Answers

— No more traditional priesthood a goal for some?

Pope Francis responds? Not Progressive ghostwriters?

But a neo-modernist need not deny any Catholic dogma. He need only empty out the contents (whether of scripture or tradition) and infuse it with new meanings. So that when a traditional Catholic is concerned over what he or she hears, the neo-modernist (whether a layperson, priest, bishop) feigns shock that his or her orthodoxy could be questioned by a student, parent…anyone.

After all, doesn’t he or she worship the same “God” and emulate the same “Jesus” as the rest of us? they insist. Don’t they preside over or attend the same liturgy and recite the same Creeds as all other Catholics? Hasn’t the pope approved them? In this way they deceitfully affirm and deny at the same time. Their ‘yes’ is almost always also a ‘no,’ and their ‘no’ almost always masks a ‘yes’.

When neo-modernists use theologically familiar language 

“God”…”Jesus”…”Mass”…”faith”… “Resurrection”…”Salvation,” etc., etc.

they mean something very different from what Catholics have traditionally meant by these revelational truths / realities. Scriptural and traditional Catholic teachings are transvalued.

And that is their method. It is how they confuse parents,students, sometimes even themselves. SH
