What Is the Future for Chalcedonian Orthodoxy?

This week: A priest we highly respect predicted a schism. His Eminence Metropolitan Ambrosios (of Greece) published a scathing indictment of the state of the Church. The Orthodox Church census confirmed large membership changes. Our world is shifting.https://t.co/Nk1sINeX44

Cardinal Kasper on the EF

"I know many people are scandalized when they come to St. Peter’s in Rome early in the morning and see that on many altars priests celebrating the 'old Mass' without any altar boy and no participation of the faithful" — Cardinal Kasper https://t.co/Sx4jUWf9pM

— Edward Pentin (@EdwardPentin) July 23, 2021

The problem is not the EF but Latin liturgial praxis, justified by Latin sacramental theology (and Latin canon law). How has Kasper been the change he wants to see?

Theosis

The spiritual reality is that we become like what we worship. God detests idols and false gods because we were not made to be as lifeless as they are. So the Lord became like us, the Lover like His beloved, so we may become like Him, the lovers like the Beloved.

German Bishops Seeking Justification for Their Own Behavior?

#German bishops are 'shamed' of #Catholic #sexual teaching, want to affirm that sex outside marriage is 'not always wrong'. A friend estimated that half of them have affairs on the side - 20yrs ago I could not have believed it - today I am convinced. #SynodalWay https://t.co/6MaTb5Er83
