MIT BEGINN DES "JAHRES DER BARMHERZIGKEIT" DROHEN PAPSTKRITISCHEN STIMMEN EXKOMMUNIKATION

7. Dezember 2015

Erzbischof Fisichella, Präsident des Päpstlichen Rates zur Förderung der Neuevangelisierung, hat durch seinen Vorschlag, dass einige Kritiken an Papst Franziskus automatisch zur Exkommunikation führen könnten, eine Kontroverse entfacht.

Erzbischof Fisichella machte diese Bemerkungen, während er ausführte, wie die neuen "Missionare der Barmherzigkeit" von Papst Franziskus arbeiten würden. Die 800 "Missionare" würden die Macht haben, von Sanktionen zu entbinden, was zuvor nur dem Heiligen Stuhl vorbehalten war.

In Bezug auf den Canon 1370, welches die automatische Exkommunikation für "physische Gewalt" gegen den römischen Papst verhängt, sagte Erzbischof Fisichella:

"Wir müssen den Begriff „physische Gewalt“ richtig verstehen, denn zuweilen sind Worte wie Felsen und Steine und einige dieser Sünden sind auch weitaus verbreiteter, als wir denken, würde ich meinen. "

Die Kommentare von Erzbischof Fisichella werden von vielen als Versuch interpretiert, gläubige Katholiken, die sich über die Richtung, die derzeit von den kirchlichen Amtsträgern in den höchsten Ebenen der Kirche eingeschlagen wird, zutiefst besorgt äußern, zum Schweigen zu bringen. Ernsthafte Bedenken wurden in den letzten zweieinhalb Jahren gegen folgende Punkte erhoben:

Angesichts dieser und anderer Skandale haben Katholiken nicht nur das Recht, sondern auch die Pflicht, respektvoll, aber gewichtige Kritik zu üben. Der Leitfaden zu dieser schwerwiegenden Pflicht findet sich im Canon 211 und 212 des kanonischen Rechtskodex:

Can. 211 — Alle Gläubigen haben die Pflicht und das Recht, dazu beizutragen, daß die göttliche Heilsbotschaft immer mehr zu allen Menschen aller Zeiten auf der ganzen Welt gelangt.

Can. 212 — § 1. Was die geistlichen Hirten in Stellvertretung Christi als Lehrer des Glaubens erklären oder als Leiter der Kirche bestimmen, haben die Gläubigen im Bewußtsein ihrer eigenen Verantwortung in christlichem Gehorsam zu befolgen.

Can. 212 — § 2. Den Gläubigen ist es unbenommen, ihre Anliegen, insbesondere die geistlichen, und ihre Wünsche den Hirten der Kirche zu eröffnen.

§ 3. Entsprechend ihrem Wissen, ihrer Zuständigkeit und ihrer hervorragenden Stellung haben sie das Recht und bisweilen sogar die Pflicht, ihre Meinung in dem, was das Wohl der Kirche angeht, den geistlichen Hirten mitzuteilen und sie unter Wahrung der Unversehrtheit des Glaubens und der Sitten und der Ehrfurcht gegenüber den Hirten und unter Beachtung des allgemeinen Nutzens und der Würde der Personen den übrigen Gläubigen kundzutun.

 

Voice of the Family (Stimme der Familie) vertraut darauf, dass Katholiken auf allen Ebenen der Kirche ihren Pflichten zur Verteidigung des katholischen Glaubens im „Jahr der Barmherzigkeit" und auch in den kommenden Jahren auch weiterhin nachkommen werden.

Papal critics threatened with excommunication as “Year of Mercy” begins

December 7, 2015December 7, 2015

Archbishop Fisichella, President of the Pontifical Council for Promoting the New Evangelization, has stirred controversy by suggesting that some criticisms of Pope Francis might result in automatic excommunication.

Archbishop Fisichella made his remarks while explaining how Pope Francis’s new “Missionaries of Mercy” will operate. The 800 “missionaries” will have the power to absolve from penalties previously reserved to the Holy See.

In reference to Canon 1370, which imposes automatic excommunication for “physical violence” against the Roman Pontiff, Archbishop Fisichella said:

“I would say that we need to understand well ‘physical violence,’ because sometimes words, too, are rocks and stones, and therefore I believe some of these sins, too, are far more widespread than we might think.”

Archbishop Fisichella’s comments will be interpreted by many as an attempt to silence faithful Catholics who are deeply concerned by the direction currently being taken by those who hold offices at the highest levels of the Church. Serious concerns have been raised over the last two and half years concerning:

·        The alleged manipulation of the 2014 Extraordinary Synod and the 2015 Ordinary Synod

·        The endorsement, by official bodies of the Holy See, of pro-abortion, pro-contraception UN Sustainable Development Goals

·        The endorsement of the environmental agenda in the encyclical letter Laudato Si, without sufficient recognition of the profound connection between environmentalism and the population control movement

In the face of these and other scandals Catholics have not only the right but also the duty to offer respectful, but forceful, criticism. This grave duty is outlined in Canons 211 and 212 of the Code of Canon Law:

Can. 211 All the Christian faithful have the duty and right to work so that the divine message of salvation more and more reaches all people in every age and in every land.

Can. 212 §1. Conscious of their own responsibility, the Christian faithful are bound to follow with Christian obedience those things which the sacred pastors, inasmuch as they represent Christ, declare as teachers of the faith or establish as rulers of the Church.

§2. The Christian faithful are free to make known to the pastors of the Church their needs, especially spiritual ones, and their desires.

§3. According to the knowledge, competence, and prestige which they possess, they have the right and even at times the duty to manifest to the sacred pastors their opinion on matters which pertain to the good of the Church and to make their opinion known to the rest of the Christian faithful, without prejudice to the integrity of faith and morals, with reverence toward their pastors, and attentive to common advantage and the dignity of persons.

Voice of the Family is confident that Catholics at every level of the Church will continue to fulfil their duty of defending the Catholic faith throughout the “Year of Mercy” and during the years ahead.
