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 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.

PHOTOS: ‘Bishop’ Athanasius Schneider in Audience with ‘Pope’ Francis

(image ©Vatican Media)

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.”

German Novus Ordo Bishop:
No Need to Evangelize the Whole World!

There’s nothing Catholic left in him: ‘Bp.’ Franz-Josef Overbeck of Essen

The state of post-Vatican II ‘Catholicism’ in Germany has never been worse than today. This is confirmed by a recent sermon delivered by Franz-Josef Overbeck (b. 1964), the ‘Catholic bishop’ of the diocese of Essen.

Some quick background: In 2021, ‘Bp.’ Overbeck, made headlines by claiming that God is present in sodomitical relationships. His auxiliary, ‘Bp.’ Ludger Schepers (b. 1953), was recently appointed commissioner for queer pastoral care by the German bishops’ conference. … READ MORE

Novus Ordo Writer Claims Christ’s Incarnation Makes All People Children of God

Popular ‘Catholic’ writer with dangerous theology: Simcha Fisher

On Dec. 18, 2024, the Modernist Jesuit rag America published an article by Simcha Fisher that is, to put it mildly, theologically problematic.

Fisher’s name may seem familiar to long-time visitors of Novus Ordo Watch. Years ago she was a blogger for the conservative-leaning National Catholic Register. She, along with her colleagues Mark Shea and John-Paul Shimek, ended up getting fired from the Register for their online behavior and some not-so-conservative views.

In 2023, Fisher received our attention when she claimed that sins of sacrilege do not hurt Jesus Christ, only ourselves: “When we treat a consecrated Host, which is Jesus, with disrespect, we are only hurting ourselves”, she opined.… READ MORE

Pope Gregory XVI Condemns Innovators Claiming to ‘Renew’ the Church

The ideas behind the theological revolution of the Second Vatican Council weren’t new in the 1960s. In the post-Reformation period, various errors along the lines of Liberalism and Modernism had already infected sundry innovators who were trying to introduce these novelties into the Church. The errors manifested themselves in revolutionary movements to bring the Church ‘up to date’ (aggiornamento!), introducing vernacular tongues into the sacred liturgy, changing the Mass to correspond more to the demands of modern man, adapting Church discipline to modernity, etc.… READ MORE

Francis Wants ‘Renewed’ Study of Church History that Accepts Church’s ‘Spots and Wrinkles’

You know there’s trouble on the horizon when Modernists are calling for ‘renewal’. This is true even more so if they feel the need to throw the word ‘courageous’ into the mix.

On Nov. 21, 2024, the apostate Jesuit Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) published a Letter on the Renewal of the Study of Church History, in which he calls for a “sincere and courageous study of history”, especially on the part of seminarians. While this may at first seem like a pretty good and harmless idea, what Francis has in mind bears within itself the seeds of revolution.… 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!

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

Latest theological claptrap from the ‘Pope’…

Francis: Church Wasn’t Sure Holy Spirit Is God Until ‘Experience’ Confirmed It!

It’s Wednesday, and therefore time for another General Audience in Vatican City.

In his role as ‘Pope Francis’, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Mario Bergoglio did not fail to dump more theological piffle on his adoring fans as part of his audience ‘catechesis’. The topic of today’s reflection was the Holy Ghost in the life of the Church, and the false pope used the opportunity to teach a blasphemous idea to his listeners:

In the first three centuries, the Church did not feel the need to give an explicit formulation of her faith in the Holy Spirit.

Heresy at Synod Opening: Francis Slams ‘Atheists Dressed as Christians’

For the opening of the second part of the Vatican’s beloved Synod on Synodality — treated by some as if it were practically the greatest event since Pentecost — the Argentinian apostate running the Vatican under the pseudonym ‘Pope Francis’ (real name: Jorge Bergoglio) gave an ideological opening speech in the serpentine Paul VI audience hall on Oct. 2.

The full 3-hr-40-min video of the so-called First General Congregation of the Synod on Synodality ’24 can be watched here:

One of the many things Francis said in his tedious and at times convoluted address is the following:

We are making [this synodal journey], convinced of the “relational” nature of the Church and seeking to ensure that the relationships given to us and entrusted to our responsible creativity will always be a sign of the gratuitousness of mercy.

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’!

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:

This past Friday, Sep. 13, 2024, the Argentinian apostate and pseudo-pope Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) told an interreligious group of young people in Singapore that all religions are paths to God and that we should not fight over which religion is true because this leads to ‘destruction’:

Quite obviously, what Francis said is heresy, but even more so, it is apostasy because it implies that Catholicism, Christianity, is altogether false and not from God.… READ MORE

The Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio’s latest and longest, and perhaps last, ‘apostolic journey’ has mercifully come to an end, but not without a bang.

From Sep. 2-13, operating under his stage name ‘Francis’, the false pope traveled from Italy to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Timor Leste, and Singapore.… READ MORE
