Reports from the extraordinary consistory on January 7-8 in Rome point to significant internal disagreements. TheCatholicHerald.com cites several cardinals, most speaking anonymously. Main quotes. Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, Jerusalem: “Reform is not a Church language. In the Church there are no reforms. We must reflect on our mission and vocation according to the times, but faithful to the roots and to the mission of the Church.” Cardinal Frank Leo, Toronto: “I don’t think the College of Cardinals is divided at all.” Anders Arborelius, Stockholm, on liturgy: “I hope we can find a compromise.” Another Cardinal: “Some of Pope Francis’ friends spoke about a new Church and absolute change.” Conservative cardinal, anonymous: “This whole synodal style doesn’t make sense to me. I don’t understand the intelligent men who write on and on about it.” Progressive cardinal, anonymous: “Sitting around tables rather than facing leaders at the front is a brilliant sign of collegiality.” …තව

12.01.2026 POPE LEO, FISCHELLA, SPADARO ARE ALIGNED WITH THE TRADTIONALISTS WHEN THE RATIONAL PREMISE IS USED TO INTERPRET VATICAN COUNCIL II EWTN has to interpret Vatican Council II only rationally and then they will be affirming the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, the Athanasius Creed and the Syllabus of Pope Pius IX. The Catholic National Reporter is aligned with the Society of St. Pius X when they both interpret Vatican Council II with only the rational premise I mentioned yesterday. There is no denial from Sean Winters and John Allen Jr. They agree with me. In the same Archbishop Rino Fisichella and Fr. Antonio Spadaro sj are in the same theological boat as the traditionalist St. Benedict Center in New Hampshire, USA when the premise and inference are rational. So we know more have a liberal Vatican Council II and so the liberal-traditionalist division has ended in the Church. All this is not mentioned in the catechesis on Vatican Council II by Pope Leo who still interprets …තව
Seeing God With the Eyes of Faith The Epiphany celebrates the manifestation of Christ’s divinity, first revealed to the Magi, then to John the Baptist, and finally at the wedding at Cana. This revelation requires faith, as Christ’s divinity was hidden, and it manifests through the fruits of our lives, such as spiritual growth and positive change. As believers, we become living epiphanies, reflecting God’s glory and grace to the world through our actions and faith. Fr. Altier’s Daily Homilies Fr.
