‘Eternal Rome’:
Pope Pius XII Against Recognize-and-Resist

In a Novus Ordo Watch tweet of Oct. 23, 2025, reacting to this article headline by The Remnant, we stated: “Just a quick reminder to The Remnant that there is no such thing as ‘Eternal Rome’. That term was invented by Abp. Marcel Lefebvre to accommodate his position of recognizing Modernists as true Catholic Popes while resisting their heretical magisterium.”

It turns out that is not entirely correct. A reader made us aware that in 1949 the phrase “Eternal Rome” was actually used by Pope Pius XII (r.… 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

Knowing When to Swallow: Leo XIV Omits Controversial Line in Common Recitation of ‘Ecumenical’ Creed

The Rev. Robert Prevost engaging in strategic swallowing on Sep. 14, 2025

On Sunday, Sep. 14, 2025, Robert F. Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) presided over an ecumenical liturgical celebration officially entitled “Commemoration of the Martyrs and Witnesses of the Faith of the 21st century”.

Leo was joined by representatives of various heretical and schismatic sects, and ‘Cardinal’ Kurt Koch, the head of the Vatican’s so-called Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, also happily participated. “The prayer service [of] Sept.… READ MORE

Leo XIV on Whether He Will Change Church Teaching:
‘Not at the Moment’!

The Rev. Robert F. Prevost, aka ‘Pope Leo XIV’, is a clever fellow. He knows how to demolish Church teaching by giving the impression that he will hold the line on it. In this he faithfully follows his master, ‘Pope’ Francis.

U.S. journalist Elise Ann Allen of the Novus Ordo news site Crux has conducted a lengthy interview with Prevost that will be issued in early 2026 in English under the title Pope Leo XIV: Global Citizen, Missionary of the 21st Century.… READ MORE

Leo XIV Backs 1986 Assisi Prayer Meeting, Abu Dhabi Declaration in Message to Interreligious Conference

Currently the head of the post-Catholic Vatican: Rev. Robert Prevost

In case anyone was still wondering what to think of Robert Francis Prevost, better known by his stage name ‘Pope Leo XIV’, today he made it absolutely clear that he fully endorses and seeks to advance the same apostate agenda that was launched with the Vatican II declaration Nostra Aetate, was boosted with ‘Pope’ John Paul II‘s 1986 interreligious prayer meeting in Assisi (which spawned a whole series of such frightful events), and that was kicked into high gear with ‘Pope’ Francis’ 2019 Abu Dhabi declaration on human fraternity.… READ MORE

Leo XIV Denies Another Miracle, Says Christ Invited the Deaf-Mute to Choose to Speak Again!

Exactly one month has passed since Robert Francis Prevost — stage name: ‘Pope Leo XIV’ — denied Christ’s Miracle of the Multiplication of the Loaves. He did so by reinterpreting it in typical Modernist fashion as a ‘miracle’ of sharing: “…the real miracle performed by Christ was to show that the key to overcoming hunger lies in sharing rather than in greedily hoarding”, the false pope declared in a message to the FAO Conference in Rome on June 30, 2025.… READ MORE

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

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

LEO WATCH, Episode 2

“What is commonly called the multiplication of the loaves”

For over two 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 second episode was broadcast live on July 10 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

While certain ‘traditional Catholic’ bloggers, journalists, and YouTubers are focusing on things like how beautifully Leo XIV chants the Our Father in Latin, the new false pope of the Vatican II Church is busy harming souls.

In an official ‘papal’ message released today for the 44th session of the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization Conference currently taking place in Rome, the man formerly known only as Robert Francis Prevost states:

The Church encourages all initiatives to put an end to the outrage of hunger in the world, making her own the sentiments of her Lord, Jesus, who, as the Gospels narrate, when he saw a great multitude coming to him to hear his word, was concerned first of all to feed them, and for this purpose asked the disciples to take charge of the problem, abundantly blessing the efforts they made (cf.

Robert Prevost’s First Few Weeks as ‘Pope’ Leo XIV

For almost a month now, the Vatican II Church has been under new management. After the death of Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) on Apr. 21, the conclave to choose his successor ended on May 8 after only four ballots, and Robert F. Prevost stepped onto the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica as ‘Pope Leo XIV’.

With Francis’ demise, the long-running FRANCIS WATCH program produced by True Restoration has now also come to an end, although all 48 audio episodes naturally remain available for free listening and downloading at FrancisWatch.org… READ MORE

‘Catholic Answers’: God Can Choose to Save Atheists!

Never mind that “without faith, it is impossible to please God” (Heb 11:6)…

Catholic Answers: God Can Choose to Save Atheists!

The California-based non-profit organization Catholic Answers, which aims to explain and defend the Vatican II religion in full communion with ‘Pope’ Francis, is becoming a parody of itself.

One of the many things published on the Catholic Answers web site is a brief post with the intriguing title, “Can atheists be saved just by acting charitably?” The truly Catholic answer would have been fairly simple — something along the lines of, “Of course not; for ‘without faith it is impossible to please God’ (Heb 11:6).” … READ MORE

‘Cardinal’ Dolan: Christ’s New Covenant Exists Side-By-Side with Jewish Old Covenant!

‘Cardinal’ Dolan of New York: Christ’s New Covenant Exists Side-By-Side with Jewish Old Covenant!

The ‘Archbishop’ of New York, Timothy Dolan, thinks the Jews have their own valid covenant with  God

‘Cardinal’ Timothy Dolan (b. 1950) is a funny character. Not only has he been playing Roman Catholic archbishop of New York since 2009, he has also gone on record claiming that there are two covenants in existence between God and mankind: one between God and the Jews, and one between God and Christians.

In an article published two weeks ago in The Free Press, ‘Cardinal’ Dolan stated in all seriousness:

The Church’s stance on antisemitism is unequivocal.
