Benedict XVI, Homily, September 29, 2007: “My thoughts also go to the Greek-Catholic Bishops… and to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine. May Heaven bless all their efforts to keep the healing and strengthening power of Christ’s Gospel active in their Land and to pass it on to future generations.

     “Those who cast God aside do not make man great but divest him of his dignity. Man then becomes a failed product of evolution. Those who accuse God also accuse man. Faith in God defends man in all his frailty and short-comings: God’s brightness shines on every individual.”[1]

Speaking about the Orthodox, Benedict XVI asks “Heaven bless all their efforts to keep the healing and strengthening power of Christ’s Gospel active in their land and to pass it on to future generations.” This is to basically say that the schismatic Church is the true Church. Notice that he also seems to promote the theory of evolution once again.

Benedict XVI, Address, September 20, 2007: “… I would like to tell you of my pleasure at noting that relations between Christians and Muslims take place on the whole in an atmosphere of mutual understanding. Therefore, to prevent seeing the development of some form of intolerance… it is right to encourage an ever truer reciprocal knowledge…

   “Such a dialogue also requires that competent people be trained to help spread knowledge and understanding of the religious values that we share and to respect loyally the differences.”[2]

Benedict XVI states the heresy that Catholics should “respect loyally the differences” between the Catholic religion and the false religion of Islam.

Pope Leo XIII, Custodi di Quella Fede (#15), Dec. 8, 1892: “Every familiarity should be avoided, not only with those impious libertines who openly promote the character of the sect, but also with those who hide under the mask of universal tolerance, respect for all religions...”

Benedict XVI, Message, September 12, 2007: “Finally, I take this opportunity to convey a fraternal greeting to the Orthodox and Catholic faithful of Greece, and in a truly special way to H.B. Christodoulos, Archbishop of Athens and All Greece, wishing him a complete recovery of health so that he may resume his pastoral service as soon as possible, and for this intention I assure him of my prayers.”[3]

Benedict XVI states that the schismatic bishop is the “Archbishop of Athens and All Greece” and asks for his recovery “so that he may resume his pastoral service as soon as possible.” Benedict XVI is therefore stating that the schismatic has a “pastoral service” and is encouraging the schismatic in that service. Benedict XVI is a total and undeniable schismatic.
