#Religion: The issue here is not about the ability to change doctrine- doctrine cannot be changed.

The issue here is that if certain teachings about marriage and the family are taught as though they have changed (when in reality they cannot), then it would amount to a massive apostasy within the leadership of the Church. In the words of Pope Pius XII:

I am worried by the Blessed Virgin’s messages to Lucy of Fatima. This persistence of Mary about the dangers which menace the Church is a divine warning against the suicide of altering the Faith, in Her liturgy, Her theology and Her soul … A day will come when the civilized world will deny its God, when the Church will doubt as Peter doubted. She will be tempted to believe that man has become God.

Pope Pius XII

How is the situation of Islam an the state of the Church related? Because the two depend on each other.

Pope John Paul II famously said that “As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.” In the case of Europe, these are among the ancient lands of Christendom alongside those of the Middle East. What happens there will not just affect Europe, but the entire world. We know for a fact and we have reported that Muslims are chomping at the proverbial bit to conquer Europe and specifically, Rome because they see the fall of Rome, Italy and specifically, the Vatican as the destruction of Christianity and an eschatalogical sign of the global triumph of Islam.

They are waiting…

Yet Islam cannot conquer without the apostasy of the Europeans. For centuries, it was the Catholic Faith that enabled Europe to defend itself from the Muslims. Yet today, that same apostasy has rendered Europe unable to help and even willing to participate in its own suicide at the hands of the Muslims.

Right now Europe is on the edge of a major and terrible war. That same war is being mirrored in the Church herself. As the Church goes, so goes the world, and right now the world is running headfast towards paganism and, if the situation does not improve, there is the possibility for an equally great war in the Church through a level of apostasy that has not been seen in centuries.

Jesus came into the world to rescue us from the darkness of paganism, and He will likely return again once the world has rejected Him and is plunged back into the darkness it once came from like a dog returning to its own vomit.

As I have said before and I will say again, keep your lamps full and an extra flask or two of oil on hand. We will all need it in the days to come…
