Greetings Parish orphans and retrogrades.

Today I'm going to be talking about an important question that has plagued the entire Francis

Pontificate.

Is he a rival?

Is there an adversarial relation between he, him, and the German radical schismatics in the

church? It comes up, it lurks in the background of so many of the

stories that I cover and that other trad Catholics on the interweb covers, but it's never quite clear.

And we shouldn't allow this insinuated note to go unplayed.

We have to delve into whether or not the German Catholics truly reject the Vatican's blank stance.

And recently, I'm going to be, today's entire show is going to be comprised of a report by the Germans.

And on d.w.com, it goes like this. German Catholics reject Vatican's abortion stance, report says.

That came out of yesterday's news. And the reason, of course, it's important is because of narrative. As the White

House and the FBI continue to stand by a raid at Mar-a-Lago, you folks out there ought to know

that narrative is very important.

It governs everything.

As the one so-called one-sixth SIOP commission rolled to a close late this summer,

you folks out there, parish orphans and retrogrades, ought to know that narrative is everything. The narrative vis-a-vis Pope Francis and the German schismatics,

who we know are his friends,

it goes like this.

They're sort of rivals in the sense that the Germans are even more radical than France's, and therefore

they're dissatisfied with his slow creeping leftism. That's how the story goes. And the narrative

also pitches then, just by relation to the right wing, him as a kind of relative middle.
