Gee, one would think that ALL the bishops and cardinals of the world are opposed to Pope Francis' ideas in AL.  Well, they are not!  Nor are the millions of lay Catholics out in the world.  


Burke and his cronies haven't realized that there is  such a concept as "sensus fidelium'----the sense of the faithful.  The People of God, including many priests, theologians, arch/bishops, and cardinals----have been and ARE calling for a rethinking and a change in the church's official teaching about marriage/remarriage, homosexuality and same-sex marriage.  Informed and conscientious Catholics have and ARE dissenting from the official teachings, the restrictions and prohibitions that have been laid upon them. 
 

Pope Francis is not remaining silent about the Gnosticism of these dissenting hierarchs, who are strangers and hirelings in the pastures.  The sheep know and are listening to the voice of Peter.
