Pope Francis is not ending the division in the Franciscans of the Immaculate (FI).

 

Pope Francis is not ending the division in the Franciscans of the Immaculate (FI). There are two groups of the FI. There is one led by Father Affonso Bruno and the other those faithful to Fr. Stefano Manelli fi, the founder of the community. They are sadly identified by the Mass, the former offers Mass in Italian here and the latter in Latin. But the division is over the Vatican Council II.

The Franciscans Sisters of the Immaculate attend Mass in Italian , but they reject Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally.

The community of Fr. Affonso, the community which Pope Francis supports, accepts Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally.

So Fr. Bruno Affonso rejects Tradition and the Franciscan Friars and Sisters of the Immaculate accept Tradition it.He does not choose to interpret Vatican Council II, rationally, for then he would have to affirm the Council of Florence 1442. There would be no exceptions mentioned in Vatican Council II for the past ecclesiocentrism.

Both of the Franciscan groups are being forced by Pope Francis to interpret Vatican Council II irrationally and produce a rupture with the ecclesiology of the 1962 Missal. This is official division supported by the Vatican. It is schism with the Magisterium over the centuries. It is heresy when the Creeds are changed and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) rejected.

With the Latin Mass and the 1962 Missal the Franciscans of the Immaculate are saying they respect Catholic Tradition.With the Italian Mass and the New Missal based upon  Vatican Council II ( irrational) the Franciscans of the Immaculate are saying they reject the Fourth Council of Lateran ( 1215) and the Council of Florence (1442) and the rest of Tradition.

This is division in the Church created by a new irrational theology and its new doctrines, new ecumenism, new ecclesiology, new evangelisation, new canon law etc.It is the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Vatican, which is suppporting first class heresy and schism, for political-left reasons.

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith( Holy Office) in 1949 also suppported heresy and schism. The CDF( Holy Office) in the 1949 Letter to the Archbishop of Boston interpreted invisible cases of the baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance, as being physically visible exceptions for the Fourth Lateran Council on EENS.With an irrationality the CDF did away with a dogma of the Church defined by three Church Councils.

The CDF supported the heresy and Pope Pius XII and the Cardinal-Archbishop of Boston, Richard Cushing. It contradicts the ecclesiology of St. Maximmilian Kolbe and the popes and saints over the centuries. So Father Bruno Affonso interprets Vatican Council II as  a break with the exclusivist ecclesiology of the Franciscan Conventuals of the 1930s, when St. Maximillian Kolbe was alive and active at his Niepokalanov (Cities of Mary). - Lionel Andrades
