The Third Vatican Council concluded today with Pope Francis announcing that Catholicism is now a "modern and reasonable religion, which has undergone evolutionary changes. The time has come to abandon all intolerance. We must recognize that religious truth evolves and changes. Truth is not absolute or set in stone. Even atheists acknowledge the divine. Through acts of love and charity the atheist acknowledges God as well, and redeems his own soul, becoming an active participant in the redemption of humanity."

Oh My God (pardon pun), heresy, 'small h', means Love 'upper case L'The significance of the current Pope, now already general news amongst the religious world, has burst the bounds of any Catholic reality known in an unprecedented call to humanity. Politicised commentary would place the Pope as the leader of a split in the Catholic Church, and causing a public display of disunity by a splinter group of traditionalists in the resignations of two Cardinals. In an already heated cauldron of the socio-political hurricane, the Pope has gone further. Homosexuals, pro-life, as well as pro-abortionists and atheists are blessed as welcomed by the Pope. The Pope doesn't stop there. God, now decreed as an 'evolving God' not the 'changeless God' of sacrosanct traditionalist Christianity, no doubt to add mounds of salt to the already injured traditionalists. The Pope, in fact does not stop there. Women have been decreed as welcomed by the Church as the Pope foretells of the Ordination of the world's first female Pope. Does he stop there? Read on. There is immigration commentary, and the he speaks out, in a blast of Holy fire against prejudice. All religions are now sanctioned, welcomed and embraced by Rome, in a watershed moment in Catholicism. Whether that be God as through Jesus, Adunai, Mohammed, Allah and beyond, in a reinterpretation of 'Jesus the Body of Christ' to mean 'how you know Love of God and how you name God, for your evolving relationship with God'. And still, there is more. There are the 'Satans' (plural, sic) defined as an artefact of the fractured human mind of self-manufactured deviation from Love.
What he does steep in unfaltering fidelity of the Scriptures, whilst paradoxically putting a torch to parts of the Scriptures, is most akin to the Gnostic tradition. He is the rescuing a hermeneutical idea well developed in modern theological teachings: that there is a fundamental transcendent message in the Scriptures, beyond literalist exegeses. A much simpler way of putting that, perhaps, Love your fellow man and embrace diversity, but with the power or surrender of transcendent Spiritual Love, greater than all of Mankind. I ponder now, again the juxtaposition of the Romans and the Christians, on the one hand, and then, on the other, that splinter group of early Christians, decimated by Christians in a famous, early Crusade. It is the Gospel of Mary Magdalene that was torched, eradicated from the Bible, for she, not the prostitute, but closest Disciple of Christ and the Apostle to the Apostles. Hundreds of thousands of her followers were decimated in a genocide. Her message embraced femininity and its equivalence in spiritual ascension, but also her followers decree was the lack of necessity to know God through the religious 'institution' of the early Church.
Will, I wonder, our modern Pope suffer the fate of Mary's followers, or will she finally claim the mantle of her Calling through close Love of Jesus, and her message be saved, some 2000 years later. Again, I see the warning to mankind. Do not suppress Love of God in any other soul by devious or forceful means. Nothing calls the soul more to rebel against Humanity than to be told that God as they know God is not true or real. God, it seems, must be allowed to breathe and be known to each soul according to their--Wyrd--is the best word I can think to relay the message.

Where are the transgender references in his great calling. I suspect this was an oversight. Where is his naming of the Transgendered, Intersex, and other terms of reference for Susan's. I believe a letter from Susan's and a Petition from here are in order.
