'Infiltration'

The Catholic Church released a Synod report on homosexuality this week, further driving a wedge between those in the Church who support moderation and more traditional Catholics who believe the Church has gone off course since the Second Vatican Council. One such traditionalist group is the Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer, also known as the Transalpine Redemptorists. On the feast of St. Athanasius last week, the Redemptorists issued a public declaration stating that they reject every pope since the Second Vatican Council. The first reason listed in their declaration was: “The Church has been infiltrated by enemies from at least the time of Pope Gregory XVI.” Although they issued this declaration prior to the recent Synod report on homosexuality, the report only reinforced their concerns. What challenges is Pope Leo facing as he begins the second year of his pontificate, and how are those challenges threatening unity within the Church?
