bergoglio's bimbo upsets neo-Catholic bimbos

bergoglio's bimbo upsets neo-Catholic bimbos

After all of the heresies and blasphemies that have come from the mouth of bergoglio and have been completely ignored by neo-Catholics... or even defended by so-called "conservative Catholics"...

Finally something has got them up in arms... at least the women...

Who would have thought that a video released by the Vatican featuring an Italian bimbo would cause so much fuss...

[See for example this article -- LINK]

If you ask me the Vatican got its target audience right and used a spokeswoman that portrayed the most essential quality of that audience... airheads...

... nothing between the ears... nothing going on inside there...

Oh but neo-Catholic women saw this and loudly complained... why?

Well its like looking at a picture of yourself and realizing that you look fat... and not just a little bit fat... must be something wrong with the camera... or the photographer... or the lighting... or the outfit... or the pose...

... it couldn't be that the picture is portraying an accurate view of reality... now could it... and not your slim sophisticated fantasy version of yourself...

... and if you think there really is something in that space between the ears of "conservative" neo-Catholic women then why is the next reaction after the shock of looking at your ugly self in the mirror the question... who is responsible for this unflattering portrayal of women in the Church...

Who indeed? Who do you think? It's not that hard?

Can you imagine such a video being released by the Vatican prior to bergoglio (AKA pope francis)?

See it wasn't such a tough question after all...

You can go back to telling each other what a wonderful pope we have in bergoglio... just ignore the blonde bimbo in the video... that doesn't prove anything... does it?

Conclusion... bergoglio can speak heresy all day long and neo-Catholic women won't bat an eye... as long as no one in the Vatican attacks the liberal feminist ideals that neo-Conservative Catholic women hold so dear then everything is A-OK... what was that commandment about false idols...

bergoglio joke of the day

bergoglio joke of the day

on the morning before Christmas kasper burst into bergoglio's bedroom in the Casa Santa Marta and started to open his mouth to speak, but bergolio quickly turned and pointed to his apple iFag phone and angrily began to rebuke him...

"can't you see i'm on the phone..." and then he realized who it was and continued meekly, "oh it's you my dear kasper... just one second..."

"hello," spoke bergoglio into his iFag, "... yes, can i call you back later?... yes... ok... happy holidays to you too raul... and say hello to your brother fidel... yes, i'll say hello to barack when i talk to him... bye, bye..."

"ah, kasper... you were saying..."

"my dear bergoglio, you have surpassed yourself... this Christmas message to the Curia was brilliant... 15 spiritual diseases... where did you come up with this... brilliant!... and all our friends in the press are talking about it... they love it..."

"ah, my dear kasper... i'm very sorry but i can't tell you where the inspiration for this speech came from..."

"why not..."

"it's a secret..."

"but, you always share everything with me... why is this different..."

"... because... it is a secret of the confessional..."

"i don't understand... are you saying some member of the Curia confessed these 15 spiritual diseases to you..."

"no, not exactly... i don't understand it myself..."

"so then... in this case -- for pastoral reasons shall we say -- i think the seal of the confessional can be broken..."

"you're sure it's ok..."

"of course... now tell me exactly what was the inspiration for this speech..."

"oh, ok... it was during my weekly confession..."

"you were confessing..."

"yes... i had just confessed that when i was in Turkey i was driven in a large car... but that it wasn't by my choice..."

"yes... yes... continue..." said kasper impatiently.

"... well... i don't have the slightest idea why... but my confessor started to speak to me about these 15 spiritual diseases..."

"... perhaps i should speak to this confessor... what happened next?"

"... well, i stopped him and went on to confess how i had sinned by not eating all my food on the plane ride back from the European Parliament... but i explained that it was a short plane trip and the plane attendants wouldn't let me finish my customary third cannoli for dessert because we were getting ready to land..."

"... ah, yes... and then what..." said kapser through gritted teeth.

"... well, that was it... and then the confessor handed me a piece of paper and asked me to read it later... he said it was about the 15 spiritual diseases he was trying to talk to me about earlier..."

"... oh, i see.. what did you say the name of that confessor is..."

bergoglio continued seemingly oblivious to kasper's comments, "... it wasn't until later when i read the paper that i realized that my confessor had given me the paper on the 15 spiritual diseases so that i could use this as the basis for my speech to the Curia..."

"... you really think so... " said kasper with a look of utter disbelief.

"... yes... but what i don't understand is why he didn't just say so... a strange priest this confessor... he gives me a "funeral face" look all the time when i'm confessing... similar to the look you just gave me... i wonder why... thankfully, God has bestowed on me a healthy dose of unawareness..."

"... so that's how it happened..."

"... yes..."

"... i should have guessed it would be something like this... what was the name of this priest again..."

"... i don't remember right now... i think his name was something like "old timer"... Father Alzheimer!... i think that was it..."

"... i see... let's just forget about it then..."

"... sure... forget about what..."

"... never mind... i'm leaving now..."

"... ok... nice boys those castro brothers... not like those Cardinals in the Curia... maybe i will visit them in Havana... i could stop there on the way back from the Philippines... we could take some selfies..."

Vatican consultant Enzo Bianchi said in reaction to bergoglio's speech to the Curia that he is a new Psalmist and a new Bernard of Clairvaux [LINK]... isn't that hilarious... don't you wish we would have thought of that...

... actually.. he was being serious...

... you're kidding...

... no...

... you're not kidding... oh my dear God... what's next...

... only God knows...

bergoglio's sodomite admirer at the New York Times

bergoglio's sodomite admirer at the New York Times

Frank Bruni has been described as an anti-Catholic bigot. A quick search of "Frank Bruni Catholic" reveals a long track record of savage and biased attacks against the Church.

I'm guessing that Bruni has never had a kind word to say about a pope... until bergoglio -- every anti-Catholic's favorite pope.

Bruni writes today in a featured New York Times article titled "The Pope, Beyoncé and Me -- Francis’ Gift to [pro-sodomite?] Catholics"...

[LINK]

"... almost two years into his papacy, it’s impossible to deny the revolutionary freshness of his posture: humble, receptive, even casual. The pomp is gone and, with it, the air of thundering judgment..."

Bruni adds the following very mild disqualifier...

"... things are different. Not different enough, not by a long shot. The church remains wrong on women and wrong on gays..."

Bruni fails to mention that he is a sodomite. How do we know this? The New York Times highlights this aspect of Bruni's life in a brief description about him. Who cares? I wouldn't care if Bruni would not allow his perverted lifestlye choices to taint his writing about the Catholic Church... but that seems to be the whole point of Bruni's article.

Does the New York Times make it a regular practice to employ radical marxists to write for their business section? And yet when it comes to the Times coverage of the Church the writers it employs are inevitably radically anti-Catholic.

=====

Below is a quote from a January 2013 article titled "NY Times’ Frank Bruni Again Uses Old Sex Abuse Stories For More Anti-Catholic Bigotry". What I find interesting is that Bruni uses the same tactic of latching on to "anti-Catholic Catholics" in order to attack the Church. In the quote below it is "Garry Wills", but if you substitute for "Garry Wills" the name "jorge bergoglio" the results are very interesting...

[LINK]

"In order to advance his spiteful attack on the Catholic priesthood, Bruni turns to a long-time Church basher, Garry Wills [jorge bergoglio], a writer who has long been known as an "anti-Catholic Catholic." Wills [bergoglio] proudly supports abortion on demand, artificial contraception, and women's ordination. He also rejects and/or denies papal infallibility, papal authority, and the Real Presence in the Eucharist. In other words, Wills [bergoglio] is not really a follower of the Catholic Church. He's a follower of the Church of Garry Wills [jorge bergoglio]. And his trendy views align nicely with those of the New York Times editorial board."

Coming soon.. bergoglio throws out an anti-communist line

Coming soon.. bergoglio throws out an anti-communist line

It's time for bergoglio to say something nominally anti-communist to appease the Cuban Catholics who are outraged over his pandering to the Castro brothers.

4... 3... 2... 1...

that's your cue bergoglio...

... trust me...  it's coming...

... this is his modus operandi... he blasts the pro-Life Catholics and then he makes some weak statement a few weeks later that can be interpreted as pro-Life... meanwhile the liberal media jumps on his initial attack on pro-Life Catholics and ignores everything after that... mission accomplished... and then some "conservative" 'c'atholic commentators blame it all on the media... it's called plausible deniability and manipulating the media... and bergoglio has got this tune down cold...

bergoglio is likes our jokes about him

bergoglio is likes our jokes about him

We at PublicVigil have been informed by our secret sources in the Vatican that bergoglio is an avid reader of "the bergoglio joke of the day" available here:

[LINK]

In his recent address to the Curia he...

"... invites people to be full of humour and self-irony; 'How beneficial a healthy dose of humour can be!' "

[LINK]

~~~

Wow! bergoglio really officially endorsed "the bergoglio joke of the day"!

Well, i wouldn't exactly say he "officially endorsed" it...

... but he said he likes it...

Well, i'm not so sure about that... the literal translation of what our secret source said is "bergoglio is likes your jokes"...

... so he likes our jokes, right?

... actually, I think our secret source was saying "bergoglio is like our jokes" or in another words "bergoglio is a joke"...

... oh... this translation stuff can be tricky...

... just ask Father Lombardi...

... so-o-o-o... does that mean we have to retract this article...

... no... we will just have our official spokesman explain the misunderstanding...

... but... we don't have an official spokesman...

... actually... we don't have a secret source in the Vatican either...

... but we do have "a healthy dose of humour"...

... got that right...

... so we've got an official papal endorsement for our "bergoglio joke of the day" apostolate!

... do i have to explain this all again...

... explain what?

... never mind...

... ok...

The gay lobby meets the Cuban lobby

The gay lobby meets the Cuban lobby

Now this could get interesting... the Cubans are a tough crowd.

Already, bergoglio has angered many pro-Life Catholics.

African Catholics aren't happy about his attacks on marriage and the family.

Some politically conservative Catholics are finally starting to get fed up with bergoglio's radical leftist politics.

Tradition minded Catholics have had enough of bergoglio's attacks on anything in the Church that pre-dates Vatican 2.

Middle Eastern Catholics have been abandoned by bergoglio.

Asian Catholics should be wary of bergoglio's intentions regarding China.

... but of all of these groups, the Cubans are the ones that bergoglio should fear the most. They are passionate and vocal but they don't just talk... they take action...

Cuban-Americans Denounce Pope Francis: ‘I Am a Catholic Without a Pope’

[LINK]

“I’m still Catholic till the day I die,” said Efrain Rivas, a 53-year-old maintenance man in Miami who was a political prisoner in Cuba for 16 years. “But I am a Catholic without a pope.”

Rivas said he cried when Obama surprisingly announced a reversal of a half-century’s efforts to isolate Cuba. Then, when he learned of Francis’ role, he got angry.

refurbishing the bergoglio brand

refurbishing the bergoglio brand

After all the bad press surrounding the synod on sex (and the family) the bergoglio brand was in bad need of refurbishing...

Yes, this is all about marketing and public relations... or haven't you noticed...

So... out of nowhere we have bergoglio getting full credit for brokering some sort of deal between Cuba and the U.S... whether you think this deal is a good idea or not doesn't matter... it's the fact that bergoglio is getting lots of favorable coverage in the liberal press... a P.R. bonanza...

Brand bergoglio is now fully restored and refurbished and ready to continue with its appointed satanic/masonic mission... the total destruction of the Catholic Church... as anti-Catholics of all stripes and colors cheer on their hero...

Well, I admit I was wrong in my prediction that bergoglio would get the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014... but there's always next year...

protect the papacy -- not bergoglio

protect the papacy -- not bergoglio

We should not have to decide between protecting the papacy and protecting the pope, but sadly that is the position that bergoglio puts us in...

... just as we should not have to choose between protecting the priesthood and protecting some particular priest who is a homosexual predator of adolescent boys.

Say No! to bergoglio

Say No! to bergoglio

Finally, leaders of the traditional movement within the Church are saying clearly and unapologetically what we have been saying here for some time... that bergoglio is hell-bent on destroying the Church.

Today on Remnant TV Christopher Ferrara said the following:

[LINK] (See ~21:30 mark)

"What we are seeing is an attack on the Church by the pope himself and we have to stand up and say, 'No! This is wrong!' "

I applaud Mr. Ferrara for speaking out forcefully. May the chorus of voices speaking out against bergoglio grow ever stronger until we finally see the day that the Church is rid of this heretical anti-Catholic pope once and for all.

Pray to God that it be sooner rather than later because the damage on the Church and on the world is greater than we can imagine. And we will be living with the consequences of actions and the statements of this heretical pope for many generations.

A post-Christian pope

A post-Christian pope

How is it that a conservative commentator in France that is not even a Catholic can see so clearly through the mask of bergoglio and yet "conservative" Catholics seem unable to grasp the simple truth that bergoglio is set on destroying the Church?

The commentator calls bergoglio a post-Christian pope. He could just as easily have said that bergoglio is an anti-Christian pope... but perhaps he thought this would be too shocking for people to hear.

But I have already said it and I will say it again that bergoglio is an anti-Christ... why else would all the enemies of the Church applaud him with such enthusiasm?

We have gone beyond living in a post-Christian world and are now entering into an anti-Christian world.

bergoglio says over and over again that the Church should not be turned into an NGO and at the same time he does everything humanly possible to do exactly that.

Is he not acting as a son of the father of lies?

=====

Excerpts below are from Rorate Caeli's article. Follow the link for the full article.

For the record: Top French Commentator in Radio-Editorial: "Francis, the Anti-Benedict XVI, is leading serious Christians to desperation."

[LINK]

Pope Francis speaks of the roots of Europe, but never makes clear that they are Christian.

He exalts spirituality, but he barely mentions the name of God, and never that of "Christ".

He mentions "human rights", "solidarity", "exploitation, "diversity", "the environment", "globalization", and "immigration", but does not say "abortion", "euthanasia" or "homosexual marriage".

He pronounces the words are are pleasing, not the words that annoy.

This pope is obsessed with dialogue between Christianity and Islam, but other than a conventional and protocolary dialogue, how can Christianity dialogue with an Islam that considers all Christians to be Muslims who don't yet know it or who deny who they are?

Francis tosses out dogma to please the age.

Vatican II had wrought havoc on the liturgical bearings of Christians. Francis seems set on giving away the cultural and religious bearings. Pope Francis is the idol of the media, of Members of the European Parliament, and of the Left in the West. He does not seem to mind that the most vengeful and sarcastic critics of the Church applaud him.

A post-Christian pope. An adherent of a Christianity without dogmas, who is adored by contemporary Progressives who have thrown away what is Sacred into the dustbins of history.

Pope Francis is in the process of transforming the Church into a simple NGO.

PublicVigil has an exclusive preview of bergoglio's latest interview which will appear on newstands everywhere tomorrow.

ATHEIST INTERVIEWER: Can you tell us some of your favorite things about being pope? For instance is it that you can eat like a pig? Or that you can say whatever stupid thing pops into your head? What are your thoughts? If you have any?

ATHEIST INTERVIEWER: Thank you jorge for this candid and enlightening interview. Do you have any closing thoughts? I mean if you have any thoughts at all.

ATHEIST INTERVIEWER: ...uh, yes. You said that at least ten times during the interview. I guess there are no closing thoughts.

bERGOGLIO: Did I tell you that i don't want to proselytize you...

ATHEIST INTERVIEWER: ...uh, yes... you did...

bERGOGLIO: OK... cause I wouldn't want to forget that... it's very important... eh? no? yes?

bergoglio joke of the day

bergoglio joke of the day

From "The adventures of bergoglio the talking mule"

Chapter 10 -- How bergoglio the talking mule became the pope

One day bergoglio the talking mule was in Buenos Aires pulling a cart full of tourists dressed in red.

bergoglio said to the tourists, "Why are all of you dressed in red?"

The first man named Murphy-O'Connor said, "It is because we are cardinals of the Catholic Church."

"Oh", said bergoglio, "We don't get many such big red birds here in Buenos Aires."

"Wait!" said a surprised Murphy-O'Connor. "You're a mule but you can talk."

"Yes," replied bergoglio matter-of-factly.

"How would you like to be pope of the Catholic Church! We need somebody different to shake things up."

"Oh, I like shaking things up," said bergoglio and he shook the cart so hard that all the cardinals fell out.

The next thing bergoglio the talking mule knew he was dressed in red and at the pre-conclave to elect a new pope.

"What will you do if you become pope?" asked all the other cardinals.

"I will shake things up!" replied bergoglio and he began to shake his big mule behind so hard that all the cardinal were so shaken up that they were thrown to the floor.

"That's exactly what we've been looking for," said a large group of cardinals and they immediately formed "team bergoglio" to back bergoglio the talking mule to be the next pope.

bergoglio the talking mule was very pleased by this. Murphy-O'Connor had promised him that as pope he would have his own kitchen staff and be able to eat anything he wanted all day long. bergoglio loved to eat and so this pleased him very much.

And Murphy-O'Connor said that once he was pope everyone would have to listen to him and that he could say anything he wanted. If there was anything that bergoglio the talking mule liked more than eating it was talking so he was especially pleased by this.

Then the actual conclave began. Murphy-O'Connor said that he would not be able to accompany bergoglio, but not to worry because the other members of team bergoglio would be there to help him.

At first it did not go well for bergoglio the talking mule. He only got a small number of votes in the first round, but then members of team bergoglio would approach those who had voted for another candidate and pull out a file folder with pictures and documents.

Gradually bergoglio the talking mule got more and more votes as team bergoglio spoke to many of the cardinals individually -- always showing them a personalized file folder with pictures and documents.

bergoglio the talking mule didn't know what was in the file folders but once he overheard some of team bergoglio saying something about a "gay lobby".

Finally, after a few days bergoglio was voted by the cardinals to be the pope.

As he was on his way out to the balcony to greet the crowds he saw Murphy-O'Connor and said jokingly, "This is all your fault!"

A few minutes later bergoglio the talking mule was standing awkardly on the balcony dressed in white and asking the crowd to pray for him.

"Finally," he thought, "now I can eat whatever I want and no one will dare call me a fat-ass mule because I am the pope!"

"And what's even better than that," he thought, "now I can say and do whatever I want and no one can call me a dumb-ass mule because I am the pope!"

And that is the true story of how bergoglio the talking mule became the pope. In the next chapters we will learn about bergoglio's many adventures as the pope -- or bishop of rome as he preferred to be called.

Time to tell bergoglio to SHUT UP!

Time to tell bergoglio to SHUT UP!

Bergoglio has ANOTHER interview.

[LINK]    [Original in Spanish]

I have not read the whole thing, but it would take days to respond to the little bit that I have read so far.

This has gone beyond ridiculous. When will Catholics finally tell this pope to "SHUT UP!"

bergoglio thinks that he can say and do whatever he wants and that no is ever going to tell him to "shut up!"

Where did he get that crazy idea from?

... from Catholic media
... from Catholic bishops
... from cardinals
... from the vast majority of the laity

bergoglio has taken on the role of a dictator... or as I have stated previously a mafia godfather... the godfather of the gay mafia...

he sees that he is unchallenged and therefore he assumes that he is un-challengeable.

Each day he becomes more drunk with his papal power...

What he needs is a bolt of lightning to hit him on the head... but even then -- assuming he survived -- he would not get the message... he would just take this as proof that he is invincible and untouchable...

The man's criminal insanity reaches new depths each day... and why not?

Who is going to stop him? Who is going to tell him to "Shut up!"

mr. humility now openly boasts of destroying his enemies... he mocks them.. and why not?

It is true that he is the most powerful agent of satan in the world today... have we ever seen any like him before?

Future generations will wonder what sort of hypnotic power he had over the Catholic faithful which caused them to remain silent before such evil...

The proper Catholic response to this latest interview is not to carefully analyze it and refute the rantings of this criminal maniac point by point... NO!

The proper Catholic response is to tell bergoglio to "Shut up!"

bergoglio's odd Christmas card

bergoglio's odd Christmas card

See the image of the card here signed only "Francis"... no "pope"... at least he didn't sign as "jorge"...

As with everything else, bergoglio never misses an opportunity to send an anti-Catholic and anti-Christian message.

The art work is -- as you would expect from bergoglio -- non-traditional.

The artist is Victor Delhez. Taking a look at some of the other work from this same artist one is left with the impression that this is a person obsessed with the occult. See results of a google search here:

[LINK]

For more of this artists interpretation of biblical scenes see this webpage which has high resolution images that supposedly depict scenes from the Gospel of St. Matthew.

[LINK]

Again, the feel of these pictures is very occult even though the theme is supposedly the Gospel. Also, I suspect that the the artist imaged Christ after himself.

I have noticed bergoglio's perverse taste in arts before. If you go back to some of his early interviews you can find where he mentions some of his favorite writers, artists and musicians. I found that many of them were homosexuals. This seemed to be his way of sending a signal early in his papacy that he was friendly to the homosexuals in the Church heirarchy.

=====

BTW. the quote in Latin is from Luke 2:30 "Because my eyes have seen thy salvation", and comes from the canticle of Simeon when he sees the Christ child as St. Mary and St. Joseph  present him in the temple. I leave it to others to decide whether this is the most appropriate verse from the Bible at Christmas time. It is a beautiful verse full of meaning and worthy of contemplation which I can see how it would lend itself to the nativity... but with bergoglio one always wonders.

bergoglio joke of the day

bergoglio joke of the day

how to dance the bergoglio

The basic step is one step forward and two steps backward.

The weight is shifted from left to right, but always maintaining more weight on the left.

The music is usually tango, although the latest trend is to use punk rock sung by old washed up former "stars" or new covers of tired old 80s disco classics sung by new wannabee "stars" dressed as nuns.

The dance starts by one of the partners bowing his head on the chest of the other who kisses him on top of his head. This opening move is referred to as "the dialogue".

The dance is performed by two males. Traditionally one of the partners is referred to as "jorge" and the other as "bart".

In theory the lead partner is "jorge" but in practice bart and jorge are co-leaders, although this can cause some confusion for the dancers... and also the audience.

After the opening "dialogue" the rest of the dance troupe dressed in red forms a circle around the lead dancers. Their task is to try to imitate the moves of the lead dancers which can be quite difficult since the dance is so unpredictable.

If one of the members of the troupe is unable (or unwilling) to imitate the moves of the two lead dancers then they are escorted to the "maltese room". This is a separate isolated area.  There is no admittance back into the dance from the maltese room.

Eventually all the dancers become exhausted and dizzy from all the hopping and contortions and spinning and fall on the floor in a pile of bodies.

.... this is when the real fun begins...

~ ~ ~
~ ~ ~

I'm getting dizzy just watching all of that spinning...

... and the contortions required to follow the lead dancer dressed in white...

... call him "jorge"... that's what he likes...

... right, "jorge"... he's a very accomplished dancer....

... yes, he learned those intricate tango moves in argentina...

... in the whore houses...

... oh no, they dance tango in the cathedral these days...

... that's good... i guess... i still can't get used to two men tangling their legs up that way...

... oh, but it's very trendy and popular...

... i know... but i am having a hard time appreciating this new fashion... it must just be me...

... no, it's not just you...

Sorry, but I can't stomach putting the more relevant quotes here. I don't want such filth on my blog. You will have to read it yourself.

Also, take a look at the pictures of this priest. Normally, I do not judge a man by his looks, but in this case the man has pervert written all over him. I would be shocked and surprised if he isn't a sexual predator of young boys. And yet this "priest" is brought by the Church specifically to speak to young people...

... meanwhile faithful priests such as Father Michael Rodriguez are being persecuted by the Church....

The bergoglio effect? Yes, to some extent,  but Radcliffe did not become a priest just yesterday. In fact he was the "Master of the Dominican Order from 1992 to 2001"....

Watch this video!

Watch this video!

The Manning Report reacts to bergoglio saying that agnostics and atheists can go to heaven.

[Video LINK]

Dear Catholics,

What the hell is wrong with you? Why don't you get it? Watch this video!

This should be the Catholic reaction to the BLASPHEMIES spewing from the mouth of bergoglio on a daily basis -- often times more than once per day.

And the reaction from Catholics is a stunning silence or a denial.

Yes, it is very un-Catholic to criticize a pope, but then we have a very un-Catholic pope in bergoglio. So get over it!

Dear Michael Voris, please watch this video!

And then do your best white boy Catholic cover of this soul tune. Please! Get over the whole papal  idolatry thing!

The two best video reactions to bergoglio's papacy are this one and the "hippy pope" video...

[Video LINK]

... both by non-Catholics. Why is that?

Oh sure we can have our intellectual/academic/theological discussions about heresy vs. blasphemy.... bla, bla, bla...

But it's really about very simple and basic Christianity... bergoglio doesn't even get the simplest, most basic things right...

The guy is a joke and an embarassment to Catholics. The king has no clothes! Let's stop pretending that he does.

He is a clown and a bozo at best. And an anti-Christ at worse. In fact he is all of those things and much more. He is a great destroyer of the Catholic Church.

And yet it is "liberal catholics" who love him. And yes, those "liberal catholics" seem to make up most of the Church these days... and that includes priests, bishops and cardinals.

So that brings me back to another question... Is the Church dead or alive?

The reaction to bergoglio and his rampant blasphemies indicates to me that the Church is either dead or at the very least in a comatose state. Just hanging limp from the crucifix... at the point of breathing its last breath... all of the vital organs are on the verge of shutting down.

And as I stated before the Church at this point needs much more than a restoration... it needs a resurrection... a miracle which only God can grant.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us...

Schism is exactly what the enemies of the Church want

Schism is exactly what the enemies of the Church want

The enemies of the Church are pushing all the buttons to cause the Church to break up into many small and dysfunctional pieces.

Yes, we already have a defacto "schism" which is the result of Vatican II. Yes, it is not the traditionalist that have caused the current defacto "schism" but rather the radical revolutionaries who were put into power at VII by John XXIII.

Yes, the "schism" was deepened by Paul VI and his liturgical "reforms".

But in the eyes of the world and even in the official eyes of the Church, the ones who are in defacto "schism" are the traditionalists that reject in part or in total VII.

Yes, given the current situation of the Church it is clear that there is no turning back on VII by the official hierarchy -- the Cardinals elected schismatic bergoglio and when the time comes they will elect another schismatic to take his place.

So is schism inevitable?

Yes, I think it is.

But, if traditionalists are going to finally abandon the official Church it must be under their own terms and NOT those imposed by the revolutionaries in the Church and their allies in the media.

If you want to know what the agenda of John Allen and Austen Ivereigh is, it is IMO to promote divisions in the Church that will lead to schism. IMO these men are paid agents of the enemies of the Church.

And bergoglio? Yes, it seems clear that his election was influenced by those same enemies of the Church that are seeking to destroy her by breaking her into a thousand little pieces.

Now what about the sedevacantists? I believe that most of them are sincere, but it can be assumed that some of them are also paid agents.

And then again some of them may be very sincere and still be effectively doing the work of the enemies of the Church -- the useful idiots category.

No one should desire schism. I do not.

But as I said before, if it is inevitable and unavoidable then we should work to make it happen on our own terms.

Of course any formal schism will be painted by the media in the ugliest way no matter how skillfully and clearly we make our arguments.

But gentleman, the time has come.

And I say "gentleman" deliberately because this is a job for men and not squeamish women.

We will either move swifly, trusting in Christ to guide our actions and Our Lady to offer us her protection, or we will be crushed mercilessly...

These are our choices. These are our only choices.

A man  who thinks clearly can come to no other conclusion. Squeamish women and men who share their way of thinking will not come to this conclusion.

So be it.

Let us give our fiat as Mary gave hers to the message from God delivered by the Archangel Gabriel...

And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

-- The Gospel according to St. Luke 1:38

ZENIT: Could you shed some light on the increasing number of Evangelicals converting to Catholicism under (the pontificate of) Pope Francis?

Cardinal Koch: I don’t think that’s the goal of the meetings, to convert the others. It was a conviction of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI and similarly thought by Pope Francis that proselytism is not a way of the Catholic Church and of ecumenism. However, when a person wants to convert to the Catholic Church this is a human right of religious freedom. But the goal of the meetings is to deepen the relationship of brotherhood, of friendship, between the Pope and Evangelicals, and to give common witness about Christ, about the presence of God in the world, and to deepen the missionary dimension of the Church.

bergoglio's criminal mind at work

bergoglio's criminal mind at work

"If everything looks good, I have nothing to reproach myself about: I have a good family, people do not gossip about me, I have everything I need, I married in church …I am ‘in the grace of God’, I am alright. Appearances! Christians of appearance … they are dead!"

This is what bergoglio thinks of Catholics who follow the teachings of the Catholic Church... "they are dead!"

Mundabor writes about this crazy quote from bergoglio and remarks, "Now It’s official: Francis Hates You." [LINK]

I would have put an exclamation point at the end as in "bergoglio hates you!"... but lets not quibble over details.

This is the criminal mind of bergoglio at work. Here we have caught the criminal in the very act of committing his crimes against God.

If you blink you will miss it... like a pickpocket or a scam artist or a con man... bergoglio is skilled at covering up his crimes by way of a slight of hand... he distracts us for a moment... then slips his hand into our pocket and lifts our spiritual wallet... full of Catholic treasures... and off he goes...

... only later do we realize that something is missing... we have been robbed...

... the knife in the back so skillfully inserted that we scarcely feel a warm sensation at the moment...

... later we notice a trickle of something warm and then when we touch the spot and see the red stain on our hands come to the horrifying reality that we have been stabbed...

... the bullet that pierces the body... enters in one side and out the other... deliberately missing the vital organs... but causing tremendous internal bleeding... but only a slight sensation of pain at the moment of impact... but a few steps later... we faint from the loss of blood and the shock...

... and by then the culprit is gone... disappeared... there is only a kindly looking priest... smiling...

... and then he too is gone...

... bergoglio the meta-criminal moves on to his next victim...

Who is the one maintaining the false appearance of being a Christian?

Who is the one "who is dead"?

John Rao has a great quote about bergoglio from an Argentine friend, "If you try to understand him, you will lose your Reason". [LINK]

In one sense Rao's friend is right, but there *IS* a way to understand bergoglio.

Rao hints at this... he suggests that bergoglio models himself as a fascist leader like Peron. And then he says that fascism has no ideology, but is built on a cult of personality.

Rao is always extremely academic, although in this case less so.

But I take a more direct approach and say that bergoglio is like a mafia godfather, and in fact I have called him the godfather of the gay mafia.. and this is the reason I refer to him as don bergoglio.

And if you think about it there is not much difference between a fascist government leader and a mafia godfather.

Rao also makes an interesting observation about bergoglio wanting to be loved by everyone... and so he will make a pro-life statement when speaking in front of a pro-life crowd and the that same evening heap tribute on a pro-abortion celebrity.

OK. We are familiar with this aspect of bergoglio by now. Mundabor speaks of bergoglio "feeding the pigeons" and I think he is on to something.

My take on this is very simple. Bergoglio thinks like a criminal. He knows what he is doing is wrong and he knows that in order not to get caught he must give the appearance of not being a criminal.

Every criminal leads a double life and this becomes part of their way of thinking. It is a way in which they become possessed by their own demons.

bergoglio instinctively acts in this criminal way -- because I don't believe anyone can actually "think" or "reason" this way because it is highly un-"reasonable".

When he instinctively feels that "the heat is on" from the authorities, he temporarily cleans up his criminal act and pretends to be the faithful 'c'atholic. He knows how to "act" 'c'atholic because he has observed how 'c'atholics act and when needed he can switch into that mode.

But in his criminal mind, all the time he is plotting how to continue with his criminal campaign.

And what is his criminal campaign?

His particular form of crime is not so much "normal" crime which is against society...

bergoglio is a meta-criminal... he does not attack society per se...

... instead he attacks the basis upon which society is built... and he has a particular type of society which he wishes to undermine... he attacks Catholic Society...

... which is to say that bergoglio's criminal activity consists of crimes against the Church...

... which is to say that bergoglio's criminal activity consists of crimes against God...

... which is to say that bergoglio is completely possessed by the devil...

... so now is not the time to enter into academic arguements about whether a pope can be a heretic...

... we have a pope that is a heretic in every sense... except that he does not declare himself to be a heretic...

... but then again how many criminals voluntarily confess to their crimes...

... pray to God to put an end to this plague on the Church...

Cardinal O'Malley denies Christ

Cardinal O'Malley denies Christ

Cardinal O'Malley says [LINK]:

"If I were founding a church, you know, I’d love to have women priests,” he said. “But Christ founded it and it — what he has given us is — is something different.”

What's wrong with this statement? This statement is wrong in an infinite number of ways...

... by what it says.
... by what it does not say.
... by what it implies.
... by it's tone.
... by it's incertittude regarding the faith.
... by being blasphemous.
... by being heretical.
... by being incredibly shallow.
... by denying the divinity of Christ.
... by denying the divine nature of the Church.
... by being relativist.
... by being modernist.
... by kowtowing to a constituency -- radical feminists -- who are atheist and therefore have no interest in the Church except for finding ways to destroy it.
... by undermining the Catholic priesthood.
... by raising false expectations.
... by doing the work of Satan.

This statement alone should be enough to have Cardinal O'Malley excommunicated... but don't hold your breath because this will never happen as long as any of us are alive.

And you wonder why I say that the Church is dead?

Should I attend Mass in one of this Cardinal's parishes and give my offering so that it can be used to support him in his anti-Catholic and anti-Christ campaign in full harmony with the anti-Catholic and anti-Christ campaign of don bergoglio?

Should I pray for this man under the title of archbishop? NO!

I will pray for the man that he may be converted and saved from the fires of hell, but as archbishop, NO!

Nor will I pay or pray for bergoglio as pope. NO!

Pray for the man that he may be converted and saved from eternal damnation, YES!

... but as pope? NO!

These men with their small demon infested brains are killing the Church. They are anti-Catholic muggers and rapists. They are murderers.

If they want to "found a church" then go for it and take all of your demonic followers with you, but leave the Catholic Church alone. For God's sake!

bergoglio as the successor of Caiphas

bergoglio as the successor of Caiphas

[49] But one of them, named Caiphas, being the high priest that year, said to them: You know nothing. [50] Neither do you consider that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

[51] And this he spoke not of himself: but being the high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation. [52] And not only for the nation, but to gather together in one the children of God, that were dispersed. [53] From that day therefore they devised to put him to death.

-- Gospel According to Saint John 11:49-53

Even though it has become clear to serious observers that bergoglio is on a mission to destroy the Church, there is still some confusion as to "why" he is doing this... what are his motives?

Is it because he is a modernist?

Is it because he is a Jesuit?

Is it because he is a Latin American?

Is it because he is losing his marbles?

Isn't the simplest explanation that he hates the Church?

And if he hates the Church, can't this only be because he hates Christ?

Of course bergoglio is not going to say, "I hate Christ." Instead he tells us how much he loves Christ... except that bergoglio's "christ" has no resemblance to the Christ of the Gospel...

And bergoglio doesn't go around saying that he hates the Church, even though his every act gives that indication. Instead he says that he loves the Church... except the "church" bergoglio loves looks nothing like the Catholic Church.

The "church" that bergoglio loves is the One World Church where all men gather together to worship a false god in full harmony with a secular One World Government.

And in order to create that One World Church the One Church of Christ must be destroyed.

The Catholic Encyclopedia makes the following remark regarding Caiphas. [LINK]

"At a time when high-priests were made and unmade by officials of Rome, and when the principal quality required seems to have been subserviency, it is no credit to the character of Caiphas to have enjoyed their favour so long."

Well, the secular authorities certainly have shown their great love for bergoglio and he has certainly been subservient to them.

Caiphas declared that Jesus must die "for the people" so that the whole nation would not perish.

St. John explains that this was prophetic and that Jesus had to die "not only for the nation, but to gather together in one the children of God, that were dispersed."

Now bergoglio tells us that he wants to "gather together in one the children of God", but bergoglio's "god" is not the Catholic God.

If his "god" is not the One Catholic God, then it must be an anti-god which can be none other than satan.

We know that the Crucifixion of Christ was required in order to redeem our souls... and now it seems that God is prepared to sacrifice the Mystical Body of Christ...

... for what reason and purpose, we do not know...

... and bergoglio is the high priest who unwittingly and unknowingly is executing God's plan...

... the Church is dead as I stated in my previous post... now is the time to go to the desert... to pray... and wait...

"Come, Lord Jesus."

Welcome to the desert

Welcome to the desert

"I know thy works, that thou hast the name of being alive: and thou art dead."

-- The Apocalypse Of Saint John 3:1

I was going to title this post "The Church is dead", but thought that this might turn away potential readers...

... but I will say it anyway, "the Church is dead."

I am not talking about a "sick" Church... no, the Church is dead. It is a rotting corpse.

This is not a time to speak of "restoration".. what the Church needs is a resurrection, but this is beyond our human capacity.

For some time it has seemed as if we were reliving the Passion, now the lifeless body of the Church has hanging on the Cross.

The October synod was the final piercing by the spear to see if there was any life left in the body... there was none...

In a curious way this means that everyone is right in their conflicting interpretations of the present times.

... even the fool bergoglio is right when he says that it doesn't matter whether someone receives the sacraments to be saved...

How can a dead Church offer valid sacraments?

So it doesn't really matter if the divorced and remarried receive the eucharist... from a dead Church.

The sedevacantists are right in saying the Chair of Peter is vacant... because if the Church is dead then what does it matter who is sitting in the chair?

I have been thinking often of the biblical account of two mothers going before Solomon and arguing over a child. Solomon offers to cut the child in half... what does it matter if the child -- the Church -- is already dead.

What does it matter if the traditionalists are right... or if the neo-conservatives are right.. or if the liberals are right... or if the radicals are right?

What does it matter if a dead Church falls into schism? A dead Church split into a thousand different pieces is still dead.

The SSPX can offer masses where they pray for the pope, but what does it matter if the is a pope of a dead Church?

The Church is as dead as Lazarus... dead and entombed... while Martha and Mary wept...

Now can Christ perform a miracle of bringing the dead back to life? ... yes, most certainly...

... but for now this is a time of mourning.

What should we do? Should we even attend Mass?

I propose that we should go into self-imposed exile in the desert... and work and pray and contemplate... and wait.

"Come, Lord Jesus."

-- The Apocalypse Of Saint John 22:20

anti-God auto-immune reaction

anti-God auto-immune reaction

The media is an organ of the anti-God society and whenever the media detects that the God "virus" is attacking the societal body it mounts an immune reaction to kill the "virus".

The problem for society is that God is an integral part of the society and by attacking God the media causes damage to the societal body.

The obvious analogy is to AIDS. The body ends up attacking itself. The organs that are supposed to protect society from sickness and infection instead act to destroy society.

And this is because our "modern" society is lost. We have come to the absurd conclusion that God is not only unnecessary for a healthy society, but that God is actually detrimental to society.

We have created the myth of the "god-virus" which must be eradicated from society. Ever more aggressive "treatments" are used to achieve this purpose.

With each "treatment" society gets weaker and weaker.

And now we are at the point where our "modern" society is actually dying from the "cures" promoted by the liberal-atheist cabal that is manipulating society in service to their satanical master.

A God-free society is a dead society.

The empirical evidence of this fact is all around us. And yet we continue to ignore it.

Instead we seem to be hell-bent to rid society of the "god-virus"...

How much further will we go... will we ever realize the Truth that is before our eyes...

No wonder that the world applauds a pope      that also views God as a "virus". The one organ of society that can bring the body of society back to health is the Catholic Church by leading us back to Christ.

And yet this most essential organ -- the very heart of society -- has become infected by this auto-immune disorder and has joined the lethal and diabolical campaign against the "god-virus".

God have mercy on us all.

"It is the Mass that Matters"
MICHAEL DAVIES

LINK

By insisting that it was the Mass that mattered, and that it mattered more than anything else, the humble peasants of Devon and Cornwall displayed a profoundly Catholic instinct, a true sensus Catholicus. Their conviction that if
the Mass could be destroyed the faith itself would be destroyed was one that they shared with the arch-heretic Martin Luther, who once said: "Once the Mass has been overthrown, I say we'll have overthrown the whole of Popedom." 2 The Protestant heresy was directed not primarily against the papacy but against the Mass.

The Catholics of the west had demanded that those who would not accept their demands should "dye lyke heretykes against the holy Catholyque fayth." In the event, it was the rebels who died when the rebellion was eventually crushed, principally due to the presence of foreign mercenaries. The Catholic army fought in battle after battle with a courage that even their opponents acknowledged, but only one outcome was possible. The final battle took place at Kings Weston in Somerset on August 29. Exhausted by forced marches, the rebels were in no condition to withstand the royal army. After "great slaughter and execution" they were overwhelmed, leaving 104 men prisoners. Singly or in pairs they were hanged in Bath, Frome, Wells, Glastonbury, Ilminster, Dunster, Milverton, Wiveliscombe and other Somerset towns. At least 4,000 West country men died for the traditional Mass at the hands of the royal army, an enormous number at that time. The new Mass in English had received its baptism of blood. In their deaths as in their lives the peasants of the west had shown that for them it was truly the Mass that mattered. Some words from the Book of Wisdom seem to have been written specifically for these Martyrs for the Mass:

In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure was taken for misery. And their going away
from us for utter destruction: but they are in peace. And though in the sight of men they suffered torments, their hope is full of immortality. Afflicted in few things, in many they shall be well rewarded: because God has tried them, and found them worthy of himself. As gold in the furnace he hath proved them, and as a victim of a holocaust he hath received them, and in time there shall be respect had to them (3:2-6).

Pro-life and anti-bergoglio

Pro-life and anti-bergoglio

The one good thing that has come out of the synod (on sex) is that more Catholics have begun to realize the truth about bergoglio's plan to destroy the Church.

This is particularly true of the Catholic pro-Life movement -- especially at LifeSiteNews.

I have been following LIfeSiteNews for years and know that they are very faithful to the Catholic Church.

LifeSiteNews is a powerful force in the pro-Life movement and in the Catholic Church. So for them to openly criticize bergoglio marks a major turning point in this papacy.

This essentially means that criticism of bergoglio for his anti-Catholic statements and actions has gone mainstream. (Despite the retreat by Michael Voris.)

It is clear that LIfeSiteNews had a very tough choice to make -- either they could support Life or they could support bergoglio... but they could not support both.

They could support the truth or they could support the lies being spread by bergoglio... but they could not support both.

The truth matters. Upholding the teachings of the Catholic Church matters. It matters to the young girl facing the "choice" of having an abortion -- the "choice" of destroying the life of her unborn child. It matters to young boys who are confused and mis-guided by the pro-sodomite propaganda in movies, TV and music. It matters to Catholic families and all families trying to hold together and fight off the pressures from secular society.

"Pope Francis revealing his take on Synod controversies in his private homilies?"

LINK

While Pope Francis has been silent about many of the controversial matters being debated at the Synod, both in the lead-up to the Synod and in the Synod Hall, veteran Vatican watchers say he has been obliquely making his views known through other avenues, including through some of his close advisors, as well his homilies at his private morning masses.

When it comes to advisors, none have sparked more speculation than Cardinal Walter Kasper, with debate swirling for months about whether Pope Francis himself personally supports Cardinal Kasper’s controversial proposal to allow divorced and remarried Catholics to receive communion in some circumstances. 

While the cardinal himself has repeatedly claimed the pope’s support, and Francis has repeatedly praised the cardinal on a personal level and his writing in general, no explicit confirmation of the pope’s position on the specific issue has been forthcoming. But in an explosive interview yesterday Kasper was arguably more explicit than ever before, bluntly telling Edward Pentin of Zenit that the pontiff “wants” the change. "Of course, the pope wants it and the world needs it," he said.

If so, it is hard to interpret a homily from Pope Francis on the morning of October 13, 2014, the day the controversial “mid-term” report was released, creating a firestorm inside and outside the Synod, as anything other than the pope strongly hinting at his views on this, and possibly other controversies at the ongoing Synod.

Chaput is confused

Chaput is confused

Now Archbishop Chaput tells us that he was not criticizing the synod and saying that it was confusing... and of the devil...

CNA says, "Archbishop Chaput rejects 'false' media reports on synod comments"

LINK

The problem is that Chaput is just getting around to this confusing rejection on  October 24...

On October 21 the headline from Religion News Service (RNS) was “Archbishop Chaput Blasts Vatican Debate on Family, says ‘Confusion is of the Devil’.”

Apparently the Archdiocese of Philadelphia didn't like the tone of that headline so Religion News Service changed it to “Archbishop Chaput ‘disturbed’ by Synod Debate, Says ‘Confusion is of the Devil’.”

LINK

Chaput is confused... which way are the Vatican winds blowing...?

What is a spineless "conservative" bishop to do when confronted by bergoglio's "god of surprises"?

... back in the day when Ratzinger was pope it was cool to be conservative... all the cool bishops were conservative...

Now it is so confusing for spineless bishops... twisting and flapping in the wind... crawling on their spineless bellies...

Is it cool to be like Burke...?

What is going to get me the most airtime on EWTN?

... apparently Chaput has come to the conclusion that the short-lived palace coup by the ratzingerians has failed... and he no longer wants to be associated with the "conservative" crowd... like Pell and Burke...

... IMO Chaput is vying for a red hat and he will do and say whatever is needed in order to continue his ecclesial career climb...

It's all very confusing, I know... and confusion is of...?

So let me be very clear... my take on all of this is that Chaput wanted to send a message that he is still a "conservative" in spite of the obvious "liberal" shift in the
Church being orchestrated by don bergoglio. And so he had his people contact the RNS people and the story was  written with the first headline with his approval. And then Chaput decided that the first headline was a little too controversial and so his people contacted the RNS people and the headline was changed. A few days later Chaput decided that he wanted nothing to do with criticizing the synod and now he wants the story retracted... but it's too late. So Chaput denies that he intended to criticize the synod and tries to spin the story in a way that makes it sound like he was really criticizing the media protrayal of the synod and not the synod itself...

... it's called "plausible deniability" baby and it's the way the game is played in the always confusing world of politics...

... but the Church is supposed to be above politics... very confusing... and confusion is of... yes, that's right... confusion is of the devil...

... this confusing message brought to you by bergoglio and his demonic friends...

Ratzinger vs. bergoglio?

Ratzinger vs. bergoglio?

"Retired pope says interreligious dialogue no substitute for mission" [See news story below.]

This is what happens when you have "two popes"... thanks to Herr Ratzinger and his surprise "retirement" to "prayer"... more confusion... as if we don't have enough already...

And confusion is of... the devil... even Cardinal Chaput agrees on this [LINK]...

Oops, I meant to say Archbishop Chaput... somehow, I think it is going to be a while before Chaput becomes a cardinal... if ever...

We´ll see a Cardinal Cupich before a Cardinal Chaput... I would be willing to bet bergoglio's pectoral "cross" on that...

So now does this indicate that there is an all out power struggle going on behind the scenes at the Vatican between the two modernist camps -- the ratzingerians and the bergoglians...?

We saw some signs of this power struggle come out in the open during the debates in the synod (on sex)...

What's next a rumble between the Jets (bergoglians) and the Sharks (ratzingerians)?

"Retired pope says interreligious dialogue no substitute for mission"

BY  FRANCIS X. ROCCA, CATHOLIC NEWS SERVICE -- October 23, 2014

LINK

VATICAN CITY - Retired Pope Benedict XVI said dialogue with other religions is no substitute for spreading the Gospel to non-Christian cultures, and warned against relativistic ideas of religious truth as "lethal to faith." He also said the true motivation for missionary work is not to increase the church's size but to share the joy of knowing Christ.

The retired pope's words appeared in written remarks to faculty members and students at Rome's Pontifical Urbanian University, which belongs to the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. Archbishop Georg Ganswein, prefect of the papal household and personal secretary to retired Pope Benedict, read the 1,800-word message aloud Oct. 21, at a ceremony dedicating the university's renovated main lecture hall to the retired pope.

The speech is one of a handful of public statements, including an interview and a published letter to a journalist, that Pope Benedict has made since he retired in February 2013.

"The risen Lord instructed his apostles, and through them his disciples in all ages, to take his word to the ends of the earth and to make disciples of all people," retired Pope Benedict wrote. "'But does that still apply?' many inside and outside the church ask themselves today. 'Is mission still something for today? Would it not be more appropriate to meet in dialogue among religions and serve together the cause of world peace?' The counter-question is: 'Can dialogue substitute for mission?'

"In fact, many today think religions should respect each other and, in their dialogue, become a common force for peace. According to this way of thinking, it is usually taken for granted that different religions are variants of one and the same reality," the retired pope wrote. "The question of truth, that which originally motivated Christians more than any other, is here put inside parentheses. It is assumed that the authentic truth about God is in the last analysis unreachable and that at best one can represent the ineffable with a variety of symbols. This renunciation of truth seems realistic and useful for peace among religions in the world.

"It is nevertheless lethal to faith. In fact, faith loses its binding character and its seriousness, everything is reduced to interchangeable symbols, capable of referring only distantly to the inaccessible mystery of the divine," he wrote.
Pope Benedict wrote that some religions, particularly "tribal religions," are "waiting for the encounter with Jesus Christ," but that this "encounter is always reciprocal. Christ is waiting for their history, their wisdom, their vision of the things." This encounter can also give new life to Christianity, which has grown tired in its historical heartlands, he wrote.

"We proclaim Jesus Christ not to procure as many members as possible for our community, and still less in order to gain power," the retired pope wrote. "We speak of him because we feel the duty to transmit that joy which has been given to us."

The synod from hell

The synod from hell

... brought to you by the pope from... Argentina... which as far as we can tell is as close to hell as you can get without leaving the surface of the planet...

The Remnant has posted two new videos which review the synod and the impact it has had and where the Church is headed under the leadership of bergoglio.

Video 1: Remnant Underground, Episode 22: The Synod from Hell -- LINK

Video 2: The Remnant Forum: The Pope's Synod: ROUND 1 -- LINK

=====

Here is a previous video from July 2014 from the Remnant that discusses the synod.

Occupy Vatican: Bracing for the Synod on the Family -- LINK

"The Remnant Forum's Michael Matt and Christopher Ferrara break down Instrumentum Laboris—the working document for the coming Synod on the Family in Rome.  Question: Are the revolutionaries who broke the Church in the first place really in any position to fix it now?"

=====

And this is what I wrote at the time regarding this video.

"Radical synod: Oktober 2014 revolution!"

LINK

Christopher Ferrara repeatedly makes the point that the next phase in the revolution is an assault on Church teachings on morality. This is the one area that was considered more or less out of bounds as the Vatican heirarchy officially  implemented changes in the Church "in the spirit of Vatican II".  And now that final fortress wall is about to be breached and the demonic army will come rushing through to attack the inner sanctum of the Church. The Holy of Holies.

So that is why I refer to the upcoming Oktober revolution as the "synod on sex" rather than the "synod on the family". The theme of the "modern crisis" of the family is simply a propaganda ploy to bring the sexual revolution into the Church.

The popular media likes to portray the Church as being "obsessed with sex", but actually they are the ones obsessed with sex and only cover the Church when it relates to how Church teachings impede the progress of the sexual revolution.

And of course bergoglio infamously chimed in and said that the Church was "obsessed" with issues of morality such as abortion and "homosexual marriage".

bergoglio and "friends" have chosen the issue of "communion for the divorced and re-married" as their perfect propaganda tool in which they can put into practice the world's largest "situational ethics" therapy session.

"How do YOU feel about that?"
"How does that make you FEEL?"
"What would YOU do when faced with this situation?"

God? Commandments? Dogma? Tradition? Even the teachings of Christ are thrown out in this phony excercise of mass "group therapy" where the unwitting guinea pigs are the Catholic faithful worldwide.

Kyrie eleison!
Holy Mother Mary, pray for us!

The end of the Catholic World?

The end of the Catholic World?

Take it away Louie Verricchio with the Catholic version of "the end of the world as we know it"...

Hey Louie, where are the lyrics?

bergoglio's god of surprises

bergoglio's god of surprises

The following quotes are from bergoglio's homily inaugurating his papacy on 19 March 2013.

LINK

Surprise!

"... but we also see the core of the Christian vocation, which is Christ! Let us protect Christ in our lives, so that we can protect others, so that we can protect creation!"

What does it mean to be a Catholic according to bergoglio? What is at the "core"?

"To protect others"... in other words "peace and justice"... "anti-poverty" programs... in other words a man-centric religion... and even a marxist/socialist/masonic religion...

"To protect creation"... in other words "environmentalism"... which is really a code word for "population control"... which is really a code word for sterilization and abortion...

All very mundane... nothing about protecting souls and leading them to heaven... this is what a shepherd of Christ's flock is tasked to do... this is the job of the bishops and the pope... not "anti-poverty" programs and saving the whales... it is the duty of our shepherds to save souls... this is the "core"...

Surprise!

bergoglio goes on to stress the importance of "respecting the environment"... (see above)

He says we must "care for creation and for our brothers and sisters"... what's missing here? Love of God and love of souls. It is not enough to provide "bread"... man does not live on bread alone. And by "creation" bergoglio really means "the environment"... again...

Surprise!

"let us be 'protectors' of creation, protectors of God’s plan inscribed in nature, protectors of one another and of the environment."

There's "the environment" again...

Surprise!

"We must not be afraid of goodness or even tenderness!"

As we have since learned, this translates from "bergoglian" into English as... "who are we to judge" sodomites?

Surprise!

"we need to see the light of hope and to be men and women who bring hope to others. To protect creation, to protect every man and every woman, to look upon them with tenderness and love, is to open up a horizon of hope; it is to let a shaft of light break through the heavy clouds; it is to bring the warmth of hope! For believers, for us Christians, like Abraham, like Saint Joseph, the hope that we bring is set against the horizon of God, which has opened up before us in Christ. It is a hope built on the rock which is God."

Hope is used 5 times. Hope. Change. Hope. Change. Who does that remind you of?

And along with "hope" is "light". Is a picture forming in your mind of a lady with a light... the masonic Statue of Liberty of course.

Surprise!

bergoglio's god of surprises is none other than the masonic goddess of liberty... egalite, liberte, fraternite...

Surprise!

"to protect the whole of creation, to protect each person, especially the poorest, to protect ourselves: this is a service that the Bishop of Rome is called to carry out"

"give me your poor... your masses yearning to breath free... " or whatever. Sound familiar? It should. It is the usual liberal/masonic/marxist/atheist mantra.

— In trying to accommodate the needs of the age, as Pope Francis suggests, the Church risks the danger of losing its courageous, counter-cultural, prophetic voice, a voice that the world needs to hear.

— The concept of having a representative body of the Church voting on doctrinal applications and pastoral solutions strikes me as being rather Protestant.

— Wherever he serves, Cardinal Burke will be a principled, articulate and fearless spokesman for the teachings of the Church.

— Pope Francis is fond of “creating a mess.” Mission accomplished.

What did Burke really say... Part IV

What did Burke really say... Part IV

This is the concluding chapter of the IV part tragic mini-series...

"Never has there been a tale of such woe then this of Michael Voris... and his bergoglio... "

"Michael Voris... Michael Voris... wherefore art thou Michael Voris?"

And now we come to the conclusion of our tragedy as our main character, Michael Voris, who at one point in this story seemed on the verge of greatness, plunges again into the depths of the bergoglian cesspool...

Scene 1 -- Wherein AngelQueen reports that the much heralded Voris report on how the "Pope [is] harming the Church" simply disappears in an apparent act of magic by some mysterious wicked sorcerer... [LINK]

Scene 2 -- Wherein our fallen hero Michael Voris releases a new video claiming that all is well in Rome... Alas! Et tu Michael Voris? [LINK to CMTV video]

Scene 3 -- Wherein Louie Verrecchio declares that there is something rotten at ChurchMilitant TV... and reveals the presence of a "quasi-internal menace” lurking behind the scenes... [LINK]

The fall of our hero Michael Voris is complete... "all are punished."

How now Michael Voris? How do you now answer AngelQueen's prophetic question?

"Michael Voris says ['Pope Harming the Church'] because he is reporting what Cardinal Burke said. Is Michael now ready to say the same on his own authority?" [LINK]

Dear Michael, are you perhaps in the grip of the cruel fates? Awake! Arise from your slumber Michael Voris!

Reject this bergoglian poison so that this story may have a happy and holy ending... all is well that ends well.

Too bad for Kasper that true Catholic reporters still exist

Too bad for Kasper that true Catholic reporters still exist

I concluded my latest "bergoglio joke of the day" [LINK] with the following "dialogue"...

~~~

poor kasper...

yes, his comments about the African bishops did not go over very well...

if only it had not been recorded... he could have denied the comments...

well, he did try to deny them anyway...

but what kind of reporter would make such a recording public...?

a Catholic one?

yes, I suppose... they still exist?

apparently so... glory be to God...

~~~

And now Michael Voris has released a video where he interviews said Catholic reporter -- Edward Pentin.

Well done Edward Pentin!

Well done Michael Voris!

Yours in Christ,
Michael @ Public Vigil

“I am shocked.  I never said such a thing about Africans and would never say such a thing either.  I declare: no one from Zenit contacted me in recent days and weeks and no one asked me for an interview.  No one from Zenit got an interview from me.”  Kasper also announced that he would take the Zenit news agency to task.

Patheos blogger Deacon Greg Kandra takes the poisonous bait from Kasper and runs with it... "In the Kasper-Pentin fiasco, they’re both wrong". [No link provided because I do not want to feed the hungry wolves at Patheos...]

Of course, this is par for the course for Patheos... I wonder if Deacon Greg consulted on this story with his fellow Patheos blogger -- potty-mouth Mark Shea...

Word is that Patheos bloggers get paid by the number of page hits... so it is not surprising that they come up with the most provocative titles for their stories possible... as anyone associated with the media knows... controversy and sensationalism is good for business...

So please don't feed the wolves at Patheos... don't link to their stories and don't visit their website. Let them die of starvation!

Below is the statement by Edward Pentin that accompanies the recording of the Kasper interview. (He also includes a full transcript of the interview at the bottom of the page.)

I highly recommend listening to the full recording of the interview and reading the transcript. It gives you a feel for how a Modernist thinks and talks...

In the interview Kasper speaks quite candidly about his heretical views -- including how he has NO respect at all for Christ or Holy Scripture... the man is an ATHEIST! That's all there is to it. I call him little Judas, while bergoglio is big Judas.

... and both bergoglio and Kasper were made cardinals of the Church by ("saint"?) John Paul II (on the same day!)... knowing full well that they were both heretics...

http://edwardpentin.co.uk/statement-on-cardinal-kasper-interview/

His Eminence Cardinal Walter Kasper spoke to me and two other journalists, one British, the other French, around 7.15pm on Tuesday as he left the Synod hall.

I transcribed the recording of our conversation, and my iPhone on which I recorded the exchange was visible. I introduced myself as a journalist with the [National Catholic] Register, and the others also introduced themselves as journalists. I therefore figured the interview was on the record and His Eminence appeared happy to talk with us. In the end, I posted the full interview in ZENIT rather than the Register. ZENIT removed the article on Thursday in response to Cardinal Kasper’s denial.

His Eminence made no comment about not wanting his remarks published. It depends on the context, but normally in such a situation, comments are considered on the record unless otherwise requested.

The recording can be downloaded below. A couple of the questions came from the other two journalists and I included them as part of the interview. Some of the quality of the English has also been improved for publication.

If there was a misunderstanding, I apologise, but I stand by the interview that was published as a correct account of the exchange.
