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 promotes apostasy with Hinduism

 

Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, President of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, sent a message on the occasion of the Hindu feast of �Diwali�, a three-day celebration:

�Dear Hindu Friends, As Diwali approaches, your religious feast, I am sure all of you in your respective families, neighborhoods and communities will be taking time to share your joy with one another.On behalf of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue I am happy to have this opportunity, for the first time since taking office, to send you my greetings.Sensitive to your religious feelings and respectful of your ancient religious tradition, I sincerely hope that your search for the Divine, symbolized through the celebration of Diwali, will help you to overcome darkness with light, untruth with truth and evil with goodness.The world around us is yearning for peace.Religions promise peace because they trace their origin to God who, according to Christian belief, is our peace.Can we, as believers of different religious traditions, not work together to receive God�s gift of peace and to spread it around us so that the world becomes for all people a better place to live?Our respective communities must pay urgent attention to the education of believers, who can so easily be misled by deceitful and false propaganda�

Forming believers first of all to discover the full dimensions and depth of their own religion, and then encouraging them to know other believers as well constitutes an important challenge for religious communities committed to building world peace� Like all human relationships, those between people of different religions need to be nourished by regular meetings, patient listening, collaborative action, and above all, by an attitude of mutual respect.Accordingly, we must work to build bonds of friendship, as indeed must the adherents of all religions�

�Only through dialogue, avoiding all forms of prejudice and stereotyped ideas about others and by faithful witness to our religious precepts and teaching, can we truly overcome conflicts.Dialogue between followers of different religions is the necessary path today; indeed, it is the only appropriate path for us as believers.Together, in collaboration, we can do much to build a society of harmony and a world of peace� Once again, I wish each one of you a happy Diwali.�[1]������

A few weeks ago Benedict XVI�s official newspaper promoted Islam by sending a message at the close of Ramadan (the Muslim month of fasting) to the Muslim community.This week we find Benedict XVI promoting the false and evil religion of Hinduism.

First, he says that he is respectful of the evil Hindu religion - heresy.Second, he states that Hinduism is a true search for the true God - heresy.Third, he says that through celebrating this false Hindu feast Hindus will overcome darkness with light, untruth with truth and evil with goodness.In other words, he is saying that by deepening their union with this false religion they will be able to overcome darkness, untruth and evil.Hinduism itself is darkness, untruth and evil, and by deepening their practice of this horrible religion created by the Devil they fall deeper into evil.Fourth, he states the blasphemy that different religions trace their origin to God.Every religion outside the Catholic religion traces its origin not to God, but to the Devil.Fifth, he states that religions can receive God�s peace and spread it around successfully �so that the world becomes for all people a better place to live� � heresy.��� Sixth, he encourages false religions to keep the followers of their false religions educated in their false religious belief-systems.�� His words are that different religions �must pay urgent attention to the education of believers� � heresy.Seventh, he promotes �forming believers first of all to discover the full dimensions and depth of their own religion� - heresy.Here he encourages people of all religions to discover the �full dimensions� and �depth� of their evil religions!Eighth, he promotes that �different religions need to be nourished by an attitude of mutual respect� � heresy. He therefore promotes that Catholics should �respect� false religions.Ninth, he states that members of false religions are �believers�- heresy.Tenth, he encourages members of false religions to have �faithful witness to� religious precepts and teaching�- heresy.

 

These heresies are found in L�Osservatore Romano, Benedict XVI�s official newspaper.Therefore all of these heresies in this short letter are fully approved of by the apostate Benedict XVI.

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)
