New World Order? Pope Benedict XVI is calling for the "construction of a world community, with a corresponding authority," to serve the "common good of the human family."
The pope made his call for a new world authority on Dec. 3, while speaking to a plenary session of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace. The Council is scheduled to meet for three days to discuss the theme of "political authority and global governance."
Hehehehe! Yeah, exactly. Yet that has been falsely claimed about him for ages! I remember how when Papa Ratzi came out after the vote and the "Habemus Papam!" and the Catholic liberals groaned with disappointment that such a "Staunch Traditionalist" was elected dashing all their hopes for reform. They are all liberals/modernists, actually.
Nothing new for the Vatican, though it does show how much of a "traditionalist" he really is.
Pope Benedict has admitted that he was a liberal. He certainly was during Vatican II. Is he now a "traditionalist?" I do not think that he has changed his stripes at all.
Demanding that the New Order (Novus Ordo) Mass be retained and that all clergy in Rome use the RFID shows how modernist he really is. If he were truly a traditionalist, then the Novus Ordo Liturgy would have been history within one year of his pontificate.
This call for a World Government Authority is at least the Pope's second call for such a collectivist-totalitarian society.
WHAT ?
Maria writes that all clergy in ROME must have that dreadful 'chip' - what, embedded in their hand - or ??
This is horrific.
Well there are pictures of Pope benedict XVI wearing a BUSINESS SUIT during his time at the actual Council -
one would never even see him as spiritual at all gazing at that image.
At least, there aren't pictures of him wearing shorts out on a picnic with women WHILE POPE, too -
like his predecssor, I don't even like to say his name, such a sellout to modernism and "celebrity glamor" was he.
