Chapter One - The Pope They Have Been Waiting For  4-6

"Leonardo Boff, who has long gloried in his status as renegade theologian from Brazil, also enjoyed a stunning change of fortune after the election of Pope Francis. Owing to his open Marxism, Boff was silenced by Pope John Paul II's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith... Pope Francis recruited him to serve as an adviser for Laudato Si', his 2015 encyclical endorsing the political agenda of climate change activists....

"The Holy Father has given his benevolent assent that Father Miguel d"EscotoBrockman be absoved from the canonical censure inflicted upon him, and entrusts him to the superior general of the institute (Maryknoll) for the purpose of accompanying him in the process of reintegration into the ministerial priesthood," announced the Vatican.

D'Escoto, among his other Marxist activities, had served as an official at the aforementioned KGB-controlled World Council of Churches. No sooner had Pope Francis granted d"Escoto request than the recipient of the Lenin Peace Prize resumed his Marxist polemics, calling capitalism the "most un-Christian doctrine and practice ever devised by man to keep us separate and unequal in a kind of global apartheid."

He condemned Pope John Paul II for an "abuse of authority" and rhapsodized about Fidel Castro as an inspired figure whose murderous regime heralded the "the reign of God on this earth that is the alternative to the empire." Even now as priest in good standing under Pope Francis, d'Escoto lobbies for the Libyans, remains a member of the Sandinasta National Liberation Front, and continues to serve as an adviser to Daniel Ortega, whom the Soviets planted in the presidency of Nicaragua in the 1980s.

According to Boff, Pope Francis will eventually rehabilitate all of the liberation theologians from Latin America. Boff believes that Pope Francis is waiting until their old critic, Pope Benedict XVI, dies. " I believe that as long as the retired pope lives, he will neither reconcile nor redeem these theologians," according to Boff. "But, when he is himself, he will rescue THE 500 THEOLOGIANS whose heads were severed. I believe this pope is capable of dismantling this machine of punishment and control, and leave it to local churches...

At a time of widespread moral relativism and assault on marriage, his 2014-2015 Synod of Bishops on the Family served not to strengthen the Church's stances but to weaken them. For the first time in the history of the Church, a pope approved of Catholics in a state of adultery. He also AUTHORIZED  his aides to float unprecedented proposals in favor of blessing the "positive aspects" of gay relationships and couples living together outside of marriage.

Amidst this doctrinal confusion. many cardinals are beginning to feel buyer's remorse. "The more he talks, the worse he gets, says a Vatican official who asked to remain anonymous, in an interview for this book."Many bishops and cardinals are terrified to speak out' but they are in a state of apoplexy. The atmosphere is so politicized and skewed. The Church is becoming unrecognizable."...

"These are dark times," Bishop Anthanasius Schneider of Kazakhstan hassaid. The liberalism of this pontificate, he argues, is exposing the faithful to "spiritual danger" and creating he conditions for the "fast and easy spreading of heterodox doctrines." ...
