PHOTOS: Vatican Releases First Images of Francis’ Body

On April 22, the Vatican released the first images of ‘Pope’ Francis’ corpse as it was lying in state in the chapel of the Casa Santa Marta (Domus Sanctae Marthae) guest house at which the man whose real name was Jorge Bergoglio was residing for the last 12 years.

We have licensed the following two photographs for publication on this blog:

Although none of the photos available contain a close-up of Bergoglio’s face, one can zoom in enough to reveal a large disfigurement on the left side of his face:

The cause of this disfigurement is possibly a hematoma from the stroke the false pope reportedly suffered before falling into a coma and subsequently dying of a heart attack on Easter Monday.… READ MORE

The ‘Pope’ of Surprises: Francis Shows Up in Plain Clothes at St. Peter’s Basilica

Today, Apr. 10, 2025, the convalescing ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio), who according to his doctors is supposed to have as little contact as possible with others and is to stay confined to his apartment in the Casa Santa Marta until May, had himself wheeled into Saint Peter’s Basilica, reportedly to pray at the tomb of Pope St. Pius X (r. 1903-14).

The most unusual aspect of this was that Francis decided to appear without his usual papal attire — white cassock, skull cap, ring, ugly pectoral cross — instead preferring to be seen as just another old man in a wheelchair.… READ MORE

[UPDATE: Video of Charles and Camilla’s Visit added to post below]

Nine years ago, on Apr. 8, 2016, the Argentinian Modernist Jorge Bergoglio (aka ‘Pope’ Francis) issued the infernal apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia, which gave the green light to those in the Vatican II Church who are in an adulterous second ‘marriage’ — the so-called ‘divorced-and-remarried’ — to receive Holy Communion without first repenting of their adultery.… READ MORE

He’s Alive! First Public Appearance of ‘Pope’ Francis since Hospitalization

Today, Mar. 23, 2025, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) made his first live public appearance since Feb. 14, defying many people’s expectations.

Around noon local time, the false pope was wheeled onto the balcony of his hospital suite on the 10th floor of the Gemelli clinic in Rome. He greeted the crowd of people gathered and spoke a few words. The entire appearance lasted about 90 seconds.

Here is the video, cued up to the moment when Bergoglio appears (around 8:33 min):

Clear Answers on a Touchy Subject: Is It Ever Morally Permissible to Wish for Someone’s Death?

What does traditional Catholic moral theology say?

Clear Answers on a Touchy Subject: Is It Ever Morally Permissible to Wish for Someone’s Death?

The ongoing hospitalization of the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’), has brought a delicate moral question to the forefront that a lot of people may be wondering about but don’t quite know how to resolve and are perhaps reluctant to ask:

Is it ever morally permissible (that is, not sinful) to desire (wish, hope for, pray for) that a particular individual will die? Or is it always and necessarily sinful to do so?

The purpose of the present post is simply to help form consciences correctly regarding this matter by providing reliable, authentic Catholic information.… READ MORE

Disordered Charity:
‘Pope’ Francis, Deportations, and the Ordo Amoris

A few years back, the American author and journalist George Neumayr (1972-2023) published a book about Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) entitled The Political Pope (2017).

That the adjective fits, Francis demonstrated today by sending a missive to the ‘Catholic bishops’ of the United States regarding the current enforcement of federal immigration laws by the Trump administration. The Vatican released the text today:

The letter contains a total of ten numbered paragraphs, in which the ‘Pope’ criticizes the enforcement of U.S.… READ MORE

The daily news bulletin put out by the Holy See Press Office on Monday, Jan. 20, 2025, included a rather unexpected item: ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) had received in audience that morning the Most Rev. Athanasius Schneider, O.R.C., auxiliary bishop of the diocese of Maria Santissima in Astana, Kazakhstan.

This was a surprise insofar as Schneider has for years been one of Bergoglio’s most vocal critics.

Not much is known about the meeting. There has been no comment from the Vatican, but of course there are photographs (above and further down below, and a few more here), and there are a few words from Bishop Schneider himself to the National Catholic Register:

Bishop Athanasius Schneider said Pope Francis “showed great cordiality” toward him during a private audience on Monday and that they “spoke about some important themes on the life of the Church.”
