Abp Vigano says that the silence of bishops on the heretical teachings of Pope Francis is a big scandal. Indeed it is. The bishops are the successors of the apostles. They are supposed to safeguard the authentic faith and the Church herself.
Jesus himself rebuked Peter and even called him Satan when he tried to dissuade Jesus from going through his passion. Peter was the first Pope. There have been bad popes in the history of the Church. Today when the heretic is the highest official of the Church, then the bishops need to speak out.
There are some good bishops who do speak out. A case in particular are the African bishops with regard to the blessing of same-sex couples. But most are silent. These bishops will be held accountable.
