On this 17th day of the Season of Creation, shouldn’t I refuse mercy to LGBTQ and women at the Synod who would propose changes to that which cannot be changed in order to commandeer Christ’s Church; are they not indeed true sinners…
Responsorial Psalm

.. and mustn’t I remain unabashedly and truly Catholic regardless of what Pope Francis may bring forth, and make it clear that it will have to be him and those LGBTQ/ women sinners, not me, who leaves the Church…
Alleluia
Gospel
…therefore I will obey this new MAGA commandment Bishop Strickland has given me and be wary of any attempts to present an alternative to the Gospel of Jesus Christ; after all, in this modern age of confusion, if I simply forgave the debt of those who trespass against me while I’m on the true path illuminated by the light of Jesus Christ, what will my heavenly Father do to me❓😉
From September 1 – October 4, the Christian family unites worldwide in prayer and action for creation during the Season of Creation. The 2023 theme is “Let Justice and Peace Flow.”
“in this Season of Creation, as followers of Christ on our shared synodal journey, we may live, work, and pray so that our common home will teem with life once again.”
Pope Francis

Laudato si, paragraph 117
