‘The Synod Process Is a Pandora’s Box’: A Cry of Alarm That Raises Hope
https://www.returntoorder.org/2023/09/the-synod-process-is-a-pandoras-box-a-cry-of-alarm-that-raises-hopes/
Moreover, a significant part of Catholic public opinion is beginning to show disquiet at the excessive invocation of the Holy Spirit as a propeller of the synodal process. This invocation, made as it were in a definitive and final decree, seems to belie the excessive haste of progressive minorities to impose some largely debatable issues and other issues that the Church’s Magisterium has already closed definitively.
Suppose we add to this the synodal documents’ often hermetic language, understandable only to insiders. In that case, we understand how the real People of God feel “lost, confused, perplexed and even disappointed,” to paraphrase John Paul II.11
TFP’s The Synodal Process Is a Pandora’s Box has come out precisely in this confusing and seemingly inexplicable situation.
By explaining what is at stake simply and directly, the book has put together the pieces of a puzzle. Based on statements by its leading advocates, the work made it clear that the synodal process is neither transparent nor spontaneous but yet another attempt to revolutionize the Church. Many of the faithful have felt mocked and have begun to raise their voices so that “[people] began to make explicit [their] fears about what might happen in the Church after the assembly.”12
The future is in God’s hands through the universal mediation of Mary Most Holy. However, one thing is certain: any attempt to change the Church’s divine constitution or infallible doctrine is hopeless, as Our Lord Jesus Christ founded the Church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against her.
