Chaput is confused
Now Archbishop Chaput tells us that he was not criticizing the synod and saying that it was confusing... and of the devil...
CNA says, "Archbishop Chaput rejects 'false' media reports on synod comments"
The problem is that Chaput is just getting around to this confusing rejection on October 24...
On October 21 the headline from Religion News Service (RNS) was “Archbishop Chaput Blasts Vatican Debate on Family, says ‘Confusion is of the Devil’.”
Apparently the Archdiocese of Philadelphia didn't like the tone of that headline so Religion News Service changed it to “Archbishop Chaput ‘disturbed’ by Synod Debate, Says ‘Confusion is of the Devil’.”
Chaput is confused... which way are the Vatican winds blowing...?
What is a spineless "conservative" bishop to do when confronted by bergoglio's "god of surprises"?
... back in the day when Ratzinger was pope it was cool to be conservative... all the cool bishops were conservative...
Now it is so confusing for spineless bishops... twisting and flapping in the wind... crawling on their spineless bellies...
Is it cool to be like Burke...?
What is going to get me the most airtime on EWTN?
... apparently Chaput has come to the conclusion that the short-lived palace coup by the ratzingerians has failed... and he no longer wants to be associated with the "conservative" crowd... like Pell and Burke...
... IMO Chaput is vying for a red hat and he will do and say whatever is needed in order to continue his ecclesial career climb...
It's all very confusing, I know... and confusion is of...?
So let me be very clear... my take on all of this is that Chaput wanted to send a message that he is still a "conservative" in spite of the obvious "liberal" shift in the
Church being orchestrated by don bergoglio. And so he had his people contact the RNS people and the story was written with the first headline with his approval. And then Chaput decided that the first headline was a little too controversial and so his people contacted the RNS people and the headline was changed. A few days later Chaput decided that he wanted nothing to do with criticizing the synod and now he wants the story retracted... but it's too late. So Chaput denies that he intended to criticize the synod and tries to spin the story in a way that makes it sound like he was really criticizing the media protrayal of the synod and not the synod itself...
... it's called "plausible deniability" baby and it's the way the game is played in the always confusing world of politics...
... but the Church is supposed to be above politics... very confusing... and confusion is of... yes, that's right... confusion is of the devil...
... this confusing message brought to you by bergoglio and his demonic friends...
