LEO WATCH with Bishop Donald Sanborn – Episode 3

Bp. Sanborn tears down Prevost’s facade…

LEO WATCH, Episode 3

“Perhaps he chose not to speak anymore because he did not feel understood”

.
For almost four months now, the Vatican II Church has been under new management. Since May 8, Robert Francis Prevost has been running the show as ‘Pope Leo XIV’.

The popular FRANCIS WATCH podcast program has thus become LEO WATCH, and it had its debut on June 3.

LEO WATCH is produced by Roman Catholic Media on a monthly basis. A third episode was broadcast live on Aug. 27 on YouTube.

As with its predecessor FRANCIS WATCH, in the new LEO WATCH, host Stephen Heiner is joined by sedevacantist Bishop Donald J.… READ MORE

Leo XIV Spews Ecumenical Bilge in Message Commemorating 1925 Stockholm Ecumenical Conference

New ‘Pope’, same old Vatican II garbage…

Leo XIV Spews Ecumenical Bilge in Message Commemorating 1925 Stockholm Ecumenical Conference

A so-called ‘Ecumenical Week’ recently ended in Stockholm, Sweden, celebrating the centenary of an interreligious conference in the Swedish capital in 1925. Not surprisingly, Robert Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) sent the participants a congratulatory message and joined the festivities in spirit.

The official name of the gathering 100 years ago was “Universal Christian Conference on Life and Work”, having been set up by Nathan Söderblom (1866-1931), who was then an archbishop of the so-called Lutheran Church of Sweden. It ran from Aug.… READ MORE

Vatican II Ecclesiology Refuted Before Vatican II

A battle of doctrine: Pope Pius XII (left) vs. Antipope Paul VI (right)

Part of the core mission of Novus Ordo Watch is to demonstrate how the teachings, laws, and worship of the modern ‘Catholic Church’ reflect a faith that is essentially different from, and therefore wholly incompatible with, the Roman Catholic Faith as it was known until the death of Pope Pius XII in 1958.

One of the most glaring deviations from the prior doctrine is visible in the theology of the Church (ecclesiology), that is, in the Catholic Church’s understanding of her own nature, function, and necessity.… READ MORE

Vatican II Star Theologian Boasted of Having Urinated on Holy Office Building – Not Once But Twice!

On Sep. 26, 2012, former-Jesuit-turned-journalist Robert Blair Kaiser (1931-2015) published a blog post in which he related a colorful story concerning the French Dominican Fr. Yves Congar (1904-1995), one of the Neo-Modernist star theologians at the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) whom ‘Pope’ John Paul II made a ‘cardinal’ in 1994.

Kaiser began: “I often wondered whether the story was true. Did Congar really pee on the wall of the Holy Office? I’d heard the story from one of my theologian friends at the Council, but I’d never been able to confirm it”; and then happily informed the reader: “Yesterday, on the tenth day of my 3-week lecture tour in India, I got the kind of independent second source that makes a story reportable.”… READ MORE

Leo XIV to Eastern Orthodox: ‘Rome, Constantinople, and All Other Sees Not Called to Vie for Primacy’

Nothing to see here, just a little HERESY…

Leo XIV to Ecumenical Group with Orthodox: ‘Rome, Constantinople, and All Other Sees Not Called to Vie for Primacy’

‘Pope’ Leo XIV in Castel Gandolfo on July 13, 2025

Today at Castel Gandolfo, the ‘Holy Father’ Robert Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) received in audience participants in a so-called Orthodox-Catholic ecumenical pilgrimage from the United States. The Vatican has published some photos here.

Aside from the usual ecumenical blather about “restoring full unity among all Christ’s disciples” — as if one could be a disciple of Christ without belonging to His flock, which is the Roman Catholic Church exclusively — ‘Pope’ Leo dropped a bombshell regarding papal primacy.… READ MORE

Our latest podcast episode, TRADCAST EXPRESS 212, was published on July 12, 2025, and it covers a number of crazy news stories that document the insanity of the Vatican II Church, now under new management with Leo XIV.

Specifically, we look at Leo XIV’s expressed desire to make converts — for the environment, of course; the Vatican’s interest in World Kiswahili Language Day; the German diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart’s publication of prayers for the blessing of perverted relationships; the ‘papal’ nuncio to the United Kingdom’s celebration of a Novus Ordo Mass at the Anglican Cathedral of Canterbury; and the Society of St.… READ MORE

A terrible tragedy occurred in Austria ten days ago: “A former pupil killed 10 people and himself at a secondary school in Austria’s second [largest] city, Graz, on Tuesday in the worst school shooting in Austria’s modern history”, Reuters reported on June 10, 2025.

Graz is the capital of the Austrian state of Styria. The official state memorial service was of the interreligious kind, of course, and was held at the local Roman Catholic cathedral on June 17.… READ MORE

Who Came Up with the Idea that Christ’s Church ‘Subsists in’ the Catholic Church, as Vatican II Teaches?

Chances are you haven’t heard that name before…

Who Came Up with the Idea that Christ’s Church ‘Subsists in’ the Catholic Church, as Vatican II Teaches?

Many readers of this blog will be familiar with the controversy concerning the teaching of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) that the Church founded by Jesus Christ “subsists in” (Latin: subsistit in) the Roman Catholic Church, as taught in its 1964 dogmatic constitution on the Church, as follows:

This Church constituted and organized in the world as a society, subsists in the Catholic Church, which is governed by the successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him, although many elements of sanctification and of truth are found outside of its visible structure.

Ecumenical Carnival Liturgy with Mock Communion Service in Swiss Catholic Church

Absurdity on stilts…

Ecumenical Carnival Liturgy with Mock Communion Service in Swiss Catholic Church

Willisau is a tiny town in Switzerland, and we wouldn’t be talking about it were it not for the annual so-called “Fools’ Mass” that takes place at the ‘Catholic’ Church of Saints Peter and Paul there during the carnival season. (To see our report on last year’s shenanigans, click here.)

Although called a Mass, it was actually an ecumenical ‘Liturgy of the Word’ plus a grotesque ‘communion’ service that makes the average Novus Ordo Liturgy look like a Solemn Pontifical High Mass offered by Pope St.… READ MORE

Because Ecumenism: Francis Adds Non-Catholic ‘Saint’ to Roman Martyrology

As time passes, the theological revolution begun at the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) is producing increasingly absurd fruits. This is particularly evident with regard to ecumenism, one of the conciliar ‘sacred cows’ that aims to procure ‘Christian unity’ outside of a conversion of all non-Catholics to Roman Catholicism — a doctrinal impossibility.

Years ago, ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio), the current head of the Vatican II Church, began emphasizing that there can be ecumenical martyrs (his so-called “ecumenism of blood”, a heresy introduced by ‘Saint’ John Paul II).… READ MORE

‘Archbishop’ of Sydney: To Say the Jews Are No Longer God’s Chosen People is HERESY!

Heretic denounces orthodoxy as heresy!

‘Archbishop’ of Sydney: To Say the Jews Are No Longer God’s Chosen People is HERESY!

The ‘Catholic archbishop’ of Sydney, Australia: Anthony Fisher, O.P.

In June of this year, the Great Synagogue of Sydney, Australia, hosted a memorial lecture in honor of its erstwhile chief rabbi, Dr. Raymond Apple (1935-2024), who had passed away on Jan. 19.

It is not clear whether this speech was given on June 25 or June 27, as there is conflicting information about it online. However, it is really of no great concern; the real problem is that this Rabbi Apple Memorial Lecture was delivered by a man who thinks himself to be, and whom the world recognizes as, the Roman Catholic archbishop of Sydney.… READ MORE

A Serious Accusation: Is Novus Ordo Watch Being Deceptive? Response to Matt Gaspers

Response to Matt Gaspers of ‘Inside the Vatican’…

A Serious Accusation:
Is Novus Ordo Watch Being Deceptive?

Here is the Evidence – YOU Decide!

[UPDATE: On Oct. 5, 2024, Mr. Matt Gaspers graciously apologized on Twitter and conceded that his interpretation of the New Commentary is likely incorrect. Of course we accept the apology.]

Sometimes sparks fly when people discuss matters of theology on social media, and that is not necessarily a bad thing. What ought not to happen during such skirmishes, however, is that one party rashly accuse the other of being dishonest about the issue under discussion.

Unfortunately, Mr.… READ MORE

Podcast: Bergoglio’s Apostate Anti-Gospel and the Many Paths to Hell (TRADCAST EXPRESS 197)

Our latest podcast episode, TRADCAST EXPRESS 197, was published on Sep. 20, 2024, and it covers exclusively the latest mess ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) made with his comments to young people in Singapore on Sep. 13 and his video message to the Med24 conference on Sep. 16:

In this podcast episode we offer extensive analysis and commentary on Bergoglio’s scandalous remarks and demonstrate that this heresy of divinely-willed religious diversity the false pope is proclaiming is by no means new — he has been saying more or less the same thing since at least 2019.… READ MORE

Bergoglio Doubles Down: ‘The Diversity of Our Religious Identities is a Gift from God’

The apostate once again confirms his apostasy…

Bergoglio Doubles Down: ‘The Diversity of Our Religious Identities is a Gift from God’!

Today ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) gave a one-word message to all ‘popesplainers’: checkmate!

Of course he didn’t quite say it like that, but he did make absolutely clear, with no plausible deniability, that the existence of many different religions is a positive good that is actively willed by God because it enriches humanity. You can’t make this stuff up!

In a video message published by the Vatican on the occasion of the “Med24” meeting in Tirana, Albania, the false pope states:
