Benedict XVI�s Recent Heresies
By Bro. Michael Dimond, O.S.B.
Introductory Note: * A Heretic is a baptized person
who rejects an authoritative teaching of the Roman Catholic Church.� A schismatic is a person who refuses
communion with a true Pope or refuses communion with true Catholics.� An apostate is a person who rejects the
Christian faith completely.� All
heretics, schismatics and apostates sever themselves
from the Catholic Church automatically (Pius XII, Mystici Corporis, June 29, 1943).� Therefore, if one is a heretic he is not a
Catholic (Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum June
29, 1896).� And most heretics convince
themselves that they are not denying any dogma when they actually are.� This page will be updated periodically.� (All emphasis, such as bolding, underlining,
and italicization is not necessarily that of the quoted author.)� * Heresies from Benedict XVI used in past
Heresy of the Week columns are usually found in Benedict XVI's recent heresies file.� His worst heresies are found in
our section on: The Heresies of Benedict XVI file.� Other past Heresies of the Week
are probably found in either the Heresy of the Week Archive or the Some of the Recent Feature Articles page or The Heresy of the Week
Archive for those from years back.
Benedict XVI Says
That False Religions
Benedict XVI�s June 11, 2012 �Lectio Divina,� in which he spoke about the sacrament of Baptism:
�Let us now
take a look at the sacramental rite, so that we may understand even more
precisely what Baptism is� Moreover
with this material element � water � not only does a basic element of the
cosmos enter, a fundamental matter created by God, but also the entire symbolism of religions,
because in all religions water has something to say.� The
journey of religions, this quest for God in different ways � even if they
are mistaken, but always seeking God � is
assumed in the sacrament.� The other religions, with their journey
to God, are present and are assumed,
and thus the world is summed up; the whole search for God that is expressed in
the symbols of religions...�[1]
Here Benedict XVI utters outrageous heresies against
the Sacrament of Baptism.� He says
Baptism represents the entire symbolism of religions, and that false religions
are assumed in the sacrament.� Benedict
XVI then says that the false religions of the world are present in baptism.� What a heretic.�
Benedict XVI�s April 7, 2012 Congratulatory Letter on the occasion of
the 50th anniversary of the consecration of �His Holiness� Mar Dinkha, Patriarch of the Assyrian �Church� of the East IV:
�I thank the Lord for the many blessings he
has bestowed on the Assyrian Church of the East through your ministry, and
I am grateful for your commitment to promoting constructive dialogue, fruitful
cooperation and growing friendship between our Churches� Your Holiness, on this significant anniversary, I pray that the
love of God the Father may enfold you, the wisdom of the Son enlighten you and the fire of the Holy Spirit continue to
inspire you.� With sentiments of
respect, I extend to Your Holiness a
fraternal embrace in Jesus Christ our Savior.�[2]
Benedict XVI states the heresy that Jesus has poured
down �blessings� upon the schismatic Assyrian �Church� of the East through this
schismatic�s �ministry.�� He therefore says that the schismatic has a
true ministry in the true Church.�
Benedict XVI calls the schismatic leader �Your Holiness,� and heretically
prays that �the fire of the Holy Spirit continue to inspire you.�� Benedict XVI prays that the Holy Spirit (the
Spirit of Truth) will continue to inspire �His Holiness� to lead the schismatic
Church.
Benedict XVI�s March 23, 2012 In Flight Interview:
��Today it is obvious that the Marxist ideology as it was conceived no longer corresponds to reality; it
is no longer possible to respond to
or to build up a society in this way... It is obvious that the Church is
always on the side of freedom: freedom of conscience, freedom of religion.�[3]
Benedict XVI states that the Marxist ideology �no
longer� corresponds to reality.� He says
that it is no longer able to build up a society.� To say that Marxism �no longer� works is to
say Marxism worked at one time.� Marxism
is an evil and totally godless system.� Benedict
XVI�s statement is evil and heretical.
Benedict XVI�s June 21, 2012 Discourse:
��The East, the motherland of ancient
Christian traditions, is especially affected by this process, which
engenders uncertainty and instability that also has an impact on the Church and
in the ecumenical and interreligious fields� the right to personal and community religious freedom.� This
right should be guaranteed in its public profession��[4]
There is only one true Christian tradition � the Catholic
tradition.� The other so-called Christian
traditions that Benedict XVI is talking about in this quote are the schismatic
�Christian traditions.�� He also promotes
the frequently condemned heresy that false religions should have a guaranteed
civil right to promote and profess their false religions in public.
Benedict XVI�s April 7, 2012 Homily:
��The creation account calls them lights, set by God in the firmament of
heaven.� In this way he deliberately
takes away the divine character that the great
religions had assigned to them.� [5]
Benedict XVI calls the largest false religions of the
world the �great religions.�

A HERETIC
CANNOT BE A VALID POPE
���������� �
It is a proven fact that Ratzinger (now Benedict XVI) is a non-Catholic
heretic.� The Catholic Church teaches
that a heretic cannot be validly elected Pope, since a heretic is not a member
of the Catholic Church.� Ratzinger, who
is now Benedict XVI, is a non-Catholic Antipope whose election was utterly null
and void.
Pope Paul IV, Bull Cum ex Apostolatus Officio, Feb. 15, 1559: �6. In addition, [by this Our Constitution,
which is to remain valid in perpetuity We enact, determine, decree and
define:-] that if ever at any time it shall appear that any Bishop, even if
he be acting as an Archbishop, Patriarch or Primate; or any Cardinal of the
aforesaid Roman Church, or, as has already been mentioned, any legate, or even
the Roman Pontiff, prior to his promotion or his elevation as Cardinal or Roman
Pontiff, has deviated from the Catholic Faith or fallen into some heresy:
(i) the promotion or elevation, even if it shall
have been uncontested and by the unanimous assent of all the Cardinals, shall
be null, void and worthless;
(ii) it shall not be possible for it to
acquire validity (nor for it to be said that it has thus acquired validity)
through the acceptance of the office, of consecration, of subsequent authority,
nor through possession of administration, nor through the putative enthronement
of a Roman Pontiff, or Veneration, or obedience accorded to such by all, nor
through the lapse of any period of time in the foregoing situation;
(iii) it shall not be held as partially
legitimate in any way�
�(vi) those thus promoted or elevated shall be deprived automatically, and
without need for any further declaration, of all dignity, position, honour, title, authority, office and power�.
10. No one at all, therefore, may infringe this document of our
approbation, re-introduction, sanction, statute and derogation of wills and
decrees, or by rash presumption contradict it. If anyone, however, should presume to attempt this, let him know that
he is destined to incur the wrath of Almighty God and of the blessed Apostles,
Peter and Paul.
Given in Rome at Saint Peter's in the year of the Incarnation
of the Lord 1559, 15th February, in the fourth year of our Pontificate.
+ I, Paul, Bishop of the Catholic Church��
St. Robert Bellarmine:
�A pope who is a manifest heretic
automatically (per se) ceases to be
pope and head, just as he ceases
automatically to be a Christian and a member of the Church.� Wherefore, he can be judged and punished by
the Church.� This is the teaching of all the ancient Fathers who teach that
manifest heretics immediately lose all jurisdiction.�
(De Romano Pontifice,
II, 30)
