Vatican Proposal to SSPX:
Call Off the Bishops’ Consecrations and We’ll Talk!

In the words of the American baseball player Yogi Berra, “It’s déjà vu all over again.”

This morning, the Superior General of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX), Father Davide Pagliarani, together with the two remaining bishops of the Society, Alfonso de Galarreta and Bernard Fellay, had a formal meeting with the Vatican’s Prefect of the so-called Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, ‘His Eminence’ Victor Manuel Fernandez.

The meeting had been announced last week after the SSPX Superior announced the Society would consecrate more bishops on July 1, regardless of whether Robert Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) grants them a mandate to do so or not:

After the Superior General of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX), Fr. Davide Pagliarani, publicly made known on Feb. 2, 2026, that new bishops would be consecrated on July 1, although the Vatican had refused the requisite permission (mandate), the anticipated drama began to unfold.

The news spread like wildfire, and the SSPX’s official web sites crashed, apparently overwhelmed by the volume of people trying to access them to see the news for themselves.… READ MORE

Vatican II Revisited:
Louie Verrecchio Dismantles the Conciliar Documents

This past December 8 marked the 60th anniversary of the closing of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65), that ominous assembly that is the magisterial ground zero for ‘modern Catholicism’ — an attempt to do the impossible and reconcile Catholicism to the secular modern world by means of an aggiornamento (“updating”) of the Catholic religion.

The result was a diabolical counterfeit Catholicism that embraces, in one way or another, many of the errors the Catholic Church sternly condemned until the death of Pope Pius XII in 1958: ecumenism, religious liberty, Sillonism, collegiality, subjectivism, liberalism, Modernism — the list is long and the errors are deadly.… READ MORE

A Very Different Church:
Leo XIV and the ‘Week of Prayer for Christian Unity’

It’s that time of the year again: The annual so-called “Week of Prayer for Christian Unity” is right around the corner (Jan. 18-25), which is an ecumenicized version of the traditional Catholic “Chair of Unity Octave”, which was approved by Pope St. Pius X in 1909 and extended to the Universal Church by Pope Benedict XV in 1916. An octave is an observance of eight days, and it is called “Chair of Unity” in reference to the Chair of St.… READ MORE

Our latest podcast episode, TRADCAST EXPRESS 219, has been published. Its main topic is the dethronement of Christ the King by the Vatican II Church, but the 23-minute program also includes discussion of other topics:

  • As expected, the Vatican fails to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the encyclical Quas Primas of Pope Pius XI, which is a thorn in the side of the Neo-Modernists
  • The Social Kingship of Christ explained and contrasted with the Vatican II Church’s idea of Christ the King
  • Vatican celebrates 60 years of ecumenical dialogue with Methodists
  • What did Leo XIV just say?

No Unity, No Faith:
Leo XIV Introduces His Ecumenical Super-Church

In our prior post on ‘Pope’ Leo XIV’s newly-released ‘apostolic letter’ on the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, In Unitate Fidei, we provided a critical examination of much of its content:

In the last article of this pseudo-magisterial document, n. 12, the false pope speaks of the “ecumenical value” of Nicea. It is this we will now take a closer look at:

Finally, the Council of Nicaea is relevant today because of its great ecumenical value.

No Unity of Faith: Leo XIV Releases ‘Apostolic Letter’ Filled with Ecumenical Bilge and Other Errors

This past Sunday, Nov. 23, 2025, on the occasion of the Novus Ordo feast of ‘Jesus Christ, King of the Universe’, the current false pope in Rome, Bob Prevost from Chicago (‘His Holiness Leo XIV’), released a new ‘apostolic letter’ regarding the 1700th anniversary of the First Council of Nicea, in which the Catholic dogma of the Most Holy Trinity was defined:

Ironically entitled In Unitate Fidei (“In the Unity of Faith”), it claims the Council of Nicaea of 325 as the joint heritage of all ‘Christians’, by whom he means all the baptized who believe in the Trinity, regardless of what their religious affiliation is (Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, etc.).… READ MORE

Sixty Years of Vatican II:
Church and Synagogue After Nostra Aetate

On Oct. 28, 2025, the Novus Ordo Sect celebrated the 60th anniversary of its apostatical document Nostra Aetate, issued by ‘Pope’ (and now, naturally, even ‘Saint’) Paul VI as part of the so-called Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). The document styles itself a “Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions”. We already critiqued some of its contents a few days ago:

For over 1,900 years the Roman Catholic Church had spoken of other religions quite simply as false, pernicious, and diabolical instruments of damnation.… READ MORE

These days the Novus Ordo Sect is celebrating 60 years of the Second Vatican Council‘s declaration Nostra Aetate on the Church’s relationship to non-Christian religions. It was solemnly promulgated by the false pope Paul VI on Oct. 28, 1965, with these words:

Each and all these items which are set forth in this Declaration have met with the approval of the Council Fathers.

What Has Happened to the Catholic Church?
An Updated Guide for Confused Catholics

Novus Ordo Watch is not receiving any kind of compensation for promoting this book (with the exception of one free copy).

Many people who sincerely desire to be good and loyal Roman Catholics are seriously troubled and confused today. Although the Second Vatican Council occurred more than 60 years ago, it has left a lasting impact. Vatican II, as the council is called for short, took place from 1962-65 and radically changed Catholic liturgy, the sacraments, and essential beliefs that have come down to us from Christ and the Apostles.… READ MORE
