Francis calls Gospel Passage “demonic” — What did he mean?

Bergoglio causes confusion and bewilderment…

Francis calls Gospel Passage “demonic”
— What did he mean?


His Unholiness on Dec. 1, 2021, at the Paul VI Audience Hall

At his weekly general audiences, the Argentinian pseudo-pope Jorge Bergoglio (“Francis”) currently preaches a catechetical series on St. Joseph, the Foster Father of Christ. Yesterday, Dec. 1, he presented his third installment, under the title “Saint Joseph: Just Man and Husband of Mary”.

The Vatican has made available the full text of the catechesis, both in the original Italian and in various translations, of which we’ll only link the English version here:

God’s Mercy and the Eternity of Hell: Reply to a genuine Heretic

A refutation of Carol Meyer…

God’s Mercy and the Eternity of Hell:
Reply to a genuine Heretic


Question: Would a good God condemn anyone to hell? Short answer: Yes, He would.

On Feb. 3, 2011, a writer by the name of Carol Meyer published a blog post on the “EarthBeat” section of the grossly misnamed National Catholic Reporter. It is a 570-word screed entitled “Debunking the Myth of Hell”.

Needless to say, in her brief post attacking the Catholic dogma of eternal punishment for those who die in mortal sin, Mrs. Meyer does no actual debunking whatsoever, she merely affirms vociferously that she does not believe what God has revealed because she doesn’t see how it could be true.… READ MORE

Sacrilege: “Climate Crucifix” in Salford Cathedral

They’re mocking Our Lord all over again…

Sacrilege:
“Climate Crucifix” in Salford Cathedral

The Novus Ordo Modernists occupying our beautiful Roman Catholic churches never run out of ideas for profaning the sacred. We need but recall the sickening, blasphemous “Jesus Clock” perpetrated by “Bishop” Hermann Glettler of Innsbruck, or the no-less-blasphemous “crucifix” in the seminary chapel in Graz. Both examples are from Austria, one of the hotbeds of sacrilegious “art” and architecture in Europe.

Today’s example of ridiculing and humiliating Our Beloved Savior Jesus Christ comes from the diocese of Salford, England (click image for larger version):

This abomination is found in not just any church within the diocese, however.… READ MORE

Francis drops another Heresy Bomb: “Friendship with Jesus cannot be broken”

Martin Luther would be proud!

Francis drops another Heresy Bomb:
“Friendship with Jesus cannot be broken”

Every year on Dec. 3 the United Nations observes an “International Day of Persons with Disabilities”. Not surprisingly, the secularist organization’s garrulous de facto chaplain, Jorge Bergoglio (“Pope Francis”), has released a message for the occasion:

There is nothing wrong, of course, with a Catholic Pope — which is what Bergoglio pretends to be — releasing a message for disabled people. In fact, it is perhaps a particularly opportune time to reach souls.… READ MORE

Is there a “Problem” with Transubstantiation? Response to Hendro Munsterman

On expressing and explaining Divine Revelation…

Is there a “Problem” with Transubstantiation?
Response to Hendro Munsterman

The beautiful Catholic dogma of Transubstantiation has long been a thorn in the side of Modernists and other heretical innovators. Not surprisingly, therefore, it is also under attack in the Novus Ordo Church, which, although teaching the dogma in its official universal catechism, denies or attacks it in various other ways.

For instance, the Vatican II Church undermines belief in the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist by the way it offers “Mass”, in the way “Holy Communion” is distributed, and in the fact that it authorizes even heretics and now also public adulterers to receive the ostensible Blessed Sacrament under certain circumstances.… READ MORE

Prayer Request: “Mary’s Troublemaker” imprisoned in Ireland

Andy Heasman arrested…

Prayer Request:
“Mary’s Troublemaker” imprisoned in Ireland


Dubliner Andy Heasman, 42

In this brief post we would like to ask for prayers for Mr. Andy Heasman, a vociferous Catholic activist in Ireland who was recently arrested, reportedly for a “public order offense”.

The details of the charges are not clear (to us), but Heasman has been given a two-month prison sentence and is currently in “isolation” at Castlerea. The following links help shed more light on the matter:

Built on Rock or on Sand? “Pope” Francis and the Divine Foundation of the Roman Catholic Church

Response to Robert Morrison of ‘The Remnant’…

Built on Rock or on Sand? “Pope” Francis and the Divine Foundation of the Roman Catholic Church

On Nov. 16, 2021, the web site of the American semi-traditionalist newspaper The Remnant published an article by Robert Morrison entitled, “How the Modernists and Francis Turn Catholic Foundations into Sand”.

It is a justified critique of the Modernist concept of “faith” and Antipope Francis‘ synodal process, which is obviously aimed at changing the Catholic religion even further than the last 60 years have done. “But if everything is open to debate”, Morrison writes, “then we believe based on the consensus of men” and not on the authority of God revealing.… READ MORE

President of ‘Catholic Answers’ is featured Speaker at SSPX Conference

Uniting the clans?

President of Catholic Answers is featured Speaker at SSPX Angelus Press Conference

How times change!

Catholic Answers is a lay-run Novus Ordo apologetics organization founded by Karl Keating in 1979. It is located in El Cajon, California, and its current president is Christopher Check, who was appointed in 2015 with the endorsement of Keating. Catholic Answers is as mainstream Novus Ordo as it gets and, at least until “Pope” Francis came along, it was considered a conservative organization. When Jorge Bergoglio (Francis) moved into the Vatican in 2013, it became more and more difficult to keep up the facade of being conservative and Catholic while still being perfectly obedient to the Jesuit apostate.… READ MORE

Pre-Vatican II Theologian: Catholicity of Church “Very Restricted” during Great Apostasy

Earlier this month we published a post on St. Augustine of Hippo writing to one Bp. Hesychius regarding the Church’s visibility during the Great Apostasy before Christ returns:

The question of the visibility of the Church is a crucial one, for the Church founded by Christ is visible by her very nature and she must ever remain in her essential constitution exactly the way Christ founded her: “But since the Church is such [having both visible and invisible elements] by divine will and constitution, such it must uniformly remain to the end of time.… READ MORE

In case you missed our initial announcement on Nov. 10: We have published another full-length episode of our popular TRADCAST podcast program. As always, it is loaded with real traditional Catholicism, insightful commentary, hard-hitting refutations of various errors, and razor-sharp analysis. Our content is typically challenging but is always delivered with a relieving touch of humor, so necessary in our chaotic and bizarre times.

TRADCAST 031 features a diversity of topics: We begin the first segment by contrasting Francis’ insistence that no one be marginalized, excluded, or discriminated against for being different, with his new Vatican City ordinance that excludes from entry all those who do not present a so-called “Green Pass”.… READ MORE

Hot Air Alert: Francis warns Mankind of God’s Judgment!

Can you guess in what context?!

Hot Air Alert:
Francis warns Mankind of God’s Judgment!

Breaking news: The Jesuit apostate Jorge Bergoglio, better known by his stage name, “Pope Francis”, has suddenly warned mankind of “God’s judgment” if it should not finally amend its ways!

What brought this on? Did the false pope accidentally open an accurate translation of the New Testament? Did memory of his childhood catechism classes suddenly return? Did he have a long-overdue conversion a few weeks before his 85th birthday? Is he becoming remorseful concerning all the Modernist piffle he has been spouting for so many years?… READ MORE

Thirteen Inconvenient Questions for the Society of St. Pius X

Just asking…

Thirteen Inconvenient Questions
for the Society of St. Pius X

It has now been over three years that the priestly fraternity established in 1970 by Abp. Marcel Lefebvre, the so-called Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), has had a new superior general. On July 11, 2018, the SSPX general chapter convened in Econe, Switzerland, and elected Fr. Davide Pagliarani for a twelve-year term to succeed Bp. Bernard Fellay as head of the group, who had been in office since 1994.

Considering how antithetical to all the SSPX stands for, the last eight-and-a-half years under “Pope” Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) have been, one would think that the Lefebvrists are up in arms against the brazen apostasy being constantly perpetrated by the man they insist is the Vicar of Christ on earth.… READ MORE

Indelible Signs: Free Tattoos offered in Novus Ordo church in Frankfurt, Germany

“Impressive”, eh?!

Indelible Signs:
Free Tattoos offered in Novus Ordo church in Frankfurt

If you thought the “Show-Your-Tattoo Mass” we reported on in 2014 was bad, wait till you read this story.

On Saturday, Oct. 23, 2021 in Frankfurt, Germany, the historic 16th-century Liebfrauenkirche (Church of Our Lady), currently used as a monastic church and occuppied by clerics of the Vatican II Sect, was defiled by an absurd spectacle: For a total of roughly five hours, the church was open for people to enter and get a calligraphical tattoo imprinted on their skin, free of charge. Participants had to choose from one of eight pre-selected words or phrases.… READ MORE

Saint Augustine: “The Church Will Not Appear” during Great Tribulation before Christ’s Return

Doctor of the Church speaks on the End Times…

Saint Augustine: “The Church Will Not Appear” during Great Tribulation before Christ’s Return

When people debate the issue of Sedevacantism, sooner or later someone who does not agree with the position will object that Sedevacantism is not reconcilable with the Catholic doctrine of the Church’s visibility.

While it is certainly true that our current situation presents some difficulties in that regard, the objection is by no means as powerful as it is often thought to be. The following articles provide some good information on the visibility issue:

If Sedevacantism were understood to mean that the Church does not, per se and by unalterable divine institution, have a visible hierarchy, then such a position would indeed be unacceptable because it would be heretical.… READ MORE

Roughly two weeks after welcoming Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi at the Vatican, “Pope” Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) today received U.S. resident Joe Biden. The two had an “unprecedentedly long” meeting (see link below) and, judging from photos and some video clips, clearly enjoyed each other’s company.… READ MORE
