Meet the new “Archbishop” of Santa Fe: John Wester

As Catholic as the Dalai Lama…

Meet the New “Archbishop” of Santa Fe:
John Charles Wester

As of late, Jorge Bergoglio (“Pope Francis”) has been appointing “bishops” faster than Chris Ferrrara can say “diabolical disorientation”. On Monday, April 27, 2015, Mr. Bergoglio appointed the “bishop” of Salt Lake City, John Charles Wester, as the new “Archbishop” of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Here are some of the news stories covering the appointment, as well as an interview:

Francis and the Gay Penguins:
The Latest Kerfuffle in FrancisChurch

Just ahead of “Pope” Francis’ visit to the United States after the Supreme Court’s (invalid) ruling that homosexual unions are to be considered “marriage”, and about 6 weeks ahead of the much-anticipated October Synod on Marriage and the Family, once again there is chaos in Novus Ordo Land about what the “Pope” has — or has not — said to a lesbian activist who put together a children’s book in which gentle souls are groomed to be accepting of the idea of unnatural “families”, in which both “parents” share the same sex (often incorrectly termed “gender”, which is actually a grammatical term).… READ MORE

Francis “Explains” Bread of Life Discourse in John 6 – without mentioning the Real Presence!

“This saying is hard, who can accept it?” (Jn 6:60)

Francis “Explains” Bread of Life Discourse in John 6 — without mentioning the Real Presence!

From the man who likes to emphasize that we must “preach the Gospel always”, comes yet another blatant refusal to do precisely that. In a short “catechesis” on our Lord Jesus Christ’s “I am the Bread of Life” discourse in John 6:27-70, “Pope” Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) in his Sunday Angelus Address of Aug. 23, 2015 managed to preach on the classic scriptural prooftext for the Catholic dogma of Transubstantiation while conspicuously avoiding any reference to the Real Presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist.

Bad news for Michael Voris: Although he’s been carrying the water for “Pope” Francis from day one, systematically covering up the latter’s missteps, gaffes, errors, and heresies (what Voris would call Francis’ “nakedness”, cf. Gen 9:23), the Argentinian apostate is not showing himself very appreciative.

Today, July 21, 2015, the Vatican announced that Francis had appointed three new auxiliary “bishops” to the ultra-leftist Modernist archdiocese of Los Angeles — the devastated vineyard of the infamous quasi-Communist “Cardinal” Roger Mahony (served 1985-2011), currently under the “care” of “Archbishop” Jose Gomez.… READ MORE

Surprise! Francis “Not Offended” by Blasphemous Crucifix Gift

Surprise! Francis Downplays Blasphemy, says “Not Offended” by Hammer-and-Sickle Crucifix

This is hopefully the last post we have to write on the Communist hammer-and-sickle “crucifix” abomination that Bolivian President Evo Morales gave to “Pope” Francis on July 9. If you haven’t seen our prior three posts on what transpired in the last few days, please make sure you read them first so you understand the context. Here they are, in chronological order (though if you suffer from high blood pressure, you may not want to click):

Aside from the large Communist blasphemy of the Hammer-and-Sickle Crucifix, Francis also received a medallion of it (in the picture above, he can be seen wearing it around his neck). He has now dedicated it to the Virgin of Copacabana, Patroness of Bolivia.

Less than 12 hours after the news broke in the English-speaking world that the Bolivian president Evo Morales had given Francis a blasphemous crucifix depicting the Lord Jesus Christ nailed to a hammer and sickle, and that Francis had accepted it without any sign of protest, disgust, anger, or resentment, the Novus Ordo news site Rome Reports published a story claiming that during this infamous exchange of gifts, Francis had actually rebuked the Socialist president with the words, “That’s not right” (“No está bien eso”).… READ MORE

UPDATE 10-JUL-2015 07:45 UTC: The fallout from Francis’ acceptance of the blasphemous Communist “crucifix” has been tremendous. Various claims that Francis rebuked the Bolivian President, telling him “That’s not right”, are FALSE. For the full story, see our FOLLOW-UP POST:

Freemasons Delighted with Francis

Sales Rep for Gmail?
No, Co-President of “Christian Masonic World Alliance”

This is a bit dated, but interesting nonetheless. For the Feast of Easter this year, the Romanian Co-President of the so-called “Christian Masonic World Alliance”, one Bartolomeu Constantin Savoiu, sent a letter full of greetings and best wishes to “Pope” Francis, thanking him for his service to humanity and assuring him of his ideological agreement.

People in our day may not think this strange, but this shows how far we’ve come in the last 60 years. Ever since its inception in the 18th century, the doctrines, practices, and goals of organized Freemasonry have always been condemned by the Catholic Church in the severest terms.… READ MORE

In Laudato Si’, “Pope” Omits Passage on Mortal Sin from St. Francis’ Canticle of the Sun

“Scratch that”…

In Laudato Sii, “Pope” Omits Passage from St. Francis’ Canticle of the Sun that warns of Mortal Sin

Francis Phillips is a writer for the UK-based Novus Ordo publication Catholic Herald. In a July 2 post on “Pope” Francis’ new eco-encyclical Laudato Si, Phillips points out a curiosity that everyone else seems to have missed so far. Although the encyclical claims St. Francis of Assisi’s famous and beautiful Canticle of the Sun for itself — from which the title “Laudato Si” (“Praise Be”) is taken — when it comes to actually quoting the entire text of the Canticle, Jorge Bergoglio (“Pope Francis”) must have decided to improvise a little.… READ MORE

No Joke: Francis denounces ‘Pseudo-Pastors’ who ‘Talk Too Much’!

You can’t make this stuff up…

Francis denounces ‘Pseudo-Pastors’ who ‘Talk Too Much’!

This is sure to blow up your hypocrisy detector. From the man who has drowned the world in an unending stream of sermons, speeches, interviews, documents, and off-the-cuff remarks since he stepped onto the world stage as “Pope Francis” on March 13, 2013, now comes a denunciation of false shepherds who “talk too much.” Vatican Radio reports on Bergoglio’s morning rambling of June 25:

[Francis:] “When Jesus warns people to beware of ‘false prophets’, he says: ‘By their fruits ye shall know them’. And here, by their attitude: so many words, they speak, they do wonders, do great things but they do not have an open heart to hear the Word of God; they are afraid of the silence of the word of God and these are the ‘pseudo Christians’, the ‘pseudo pastors ‘.

Francis condemns Weapons Manufacturers

caution-francis-tape.jpg

On Sunday, June 21, 2015, while speaking off-the-cuff to youths in the Italian city of Turin, Francis condemned those who manufacture weapons as unchristian, thereby demonstrating his own intellectual brilliance once more:

It makes me think one thing: people, leaders, entrepreneurs that call themselves Christians, and produce arms! This gives some mistrust: they call themselves Christians! “No, no, Father, I don’t produce them, no, no …. I only have my savings, my investments in arms factories.” Ah! And why? “Because the interest is somewhat higher …” And a double face is also a current coin today: to say something and do another.

Antipope Francis

Encyclical Letter Laudato Si’
on Care for our Common Home

May 24, 2015

After what seems like an eternity of anticipation by the adherents of the global warming / climate change religion, Mr. Jorge Bergoglio of the Modernist Pseudo-Catholic Vatican II Sect (aka “Pope Francis”) has finally released his second encyclical letter, entitled Laudato Sii (Italian for “Be Praised”), bearing the subtitle “On Care for our Common Home”. Due to its length and comprehensiveness, we have dubbed it his Summa Ecologica.

The text is available in eight languages:

The Vatican press office’s 2-hour presentation of the encyclical is available to watch here:
