Cardinal Burk Warns of Apostasy

His Eminence Raymond Cardinal Burke is yet again warning Catholics about the third secret of Fatima and its connection to the growing attacks on family life being perpetrated by politicians who consider themselves followers of Christ.

During a forceful sermon given at the National Blue Army Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima earlier this month, Burke remarked that there is a “practical apostasy” taking place in the Church. He also said that it’s a “scandal” for Catholic politicians who attack Church teachings to present themselves for Holy Communion.

“The Bishops rightly seek to safeguard the sanctity of the Holy Eucharist” in order to “prevent the faithful from committing sacrilege by the unworthy reception of the Holy Eucharist,” he said.

They want to “stop the scandal caused by Catholic politicians” who “obstinately persist in promoting legislation in violation of the most fundamental truths of the moral law.”
