Pope Francis failed to reform what was originally intended by his election. Indeed he changed some people, mostly retired. Merged some offices. is
that the big reform everyone expected?
He entered into multiple scandals with interviews where his words were not quoted exactly. The last one of the gay people. Others included the
existence of hell, etc. That is intentional jesuit trap. Why didn't he elaborate of the green martians, if the jesuits in Arizona detect multiple
flying objects?
Where is the Fatima secret? Where is the consecration of Russia if such was ever asked by Our Lady? Instead, he consecrated personally in Fatima. That
wasn't required.
He reached the limits for himself. At the age of 81 it is the right time for him to resign with dignity.
The next consistory is on June 29. The right time for him to tell the cardinals they have to elect someone else.
There is still time to avoid the predicament of Malachi and Fatima-official. Because, if it happens, that could mean the end of the Roman church. Not
the end of the Catholic church though.
Before he resigns, he could still do some useful things. His resignation is inevitable, unless he wants to follow the death-watch of John Paul II. I
guess no one wants that.
For example, he could appoint many more cardinals, not just archbishops. To break the status quo. The number of 120 was invented by John Paul II. The
pope can override that number without any special new rulling, since he is not bound by his rulings or those of his predecessor.
In the past there were laity cardinals. Even women are not formally forbidden, since the cardinalate is not a sacrament of priesthood. He could
appoint much younger people, zealous not corrupt ones, who will change the Catholic church in time. For now, it seems he stops where he intended to
stop in advance.
Let not forget that the pope is also a sovereign monarch. In a time of political and economic crisis, there are many things that he could do. If he
wants it.
