«Pope Francis Blessed»?
An assessment one year after the death of J. M. Bergoglio
The debate on holiness in the contemporary Church has become an ideological farce. Canonizing Pope Francis, who made ambiguity his banner, is an outrage. Holiness is not sympathy or populism, but absolute fidelity to Christ's mandate. Elevating "kindness" to the altars empties Paradise. A Pope who endorses sin is not holy; he is a shepherd who abdicates his duty. The Church needs a Pope of God, not a "Pope of the people". Holiness is not a democratic award, but a steep summit. Before invoking halos, let us tremble at the thought of Judgment.
