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

The World NEEDS Hindu Temples?
More on ‘Bp.’ Martinelli’s Effusive Praise of Hinduism

On Feb. 4, 2025, we reported on a blasphemous speech given almost a year ago by the Vicar Apostolic of Southern Arabia, ‘Bp.’ Paolo Martinelli, OFM Cap., in Abu Dhabi, UAE, for the opening of a Hindu temple:

For the text of the speech, we relied on the official script published at the web site of the Vicariate of Southern Arabia. We have since come to find out, however, that during his actual delivery of the address, Martinelli spontaneously added further remarks, and they made the matter even worse.… READ MORE

Novus Ordo Bishop Says Catholic Church Rejoices at Inauguration of Hindu Temple

“For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.” (Psalm 95:5)

The following news item is almost a year old, but it really doesn’t matter when this absurdity took place, whether last year or last week — the evil and the scandal are the same. This story did not receive a lot of coverage when it came out, so it’s time we exposed it.

‘Bishop’ Paolo Martinelli, O.F.M. Cap. (b. 1958), is the Novus Ordo Sect’s Vicar Apostolic of Southern Arabia.… READ MORE

Blasphemous Art in Linz Cathedral:
Adoration of ‘The New Family’

For at least the third time this year, Immaculate Conception Cathedral in the diocese of Linz, Austria, has been the site of revolting blasphemy, legitimized and promoted under cover of its status as ‘art’.

Frequent visitors of this blog will recall the disgusting ‘Virgin Mary Giving Birth’ statue that was displayed in a side chapel of the cathedral in late June, followed by an absurd installation of pink hoses hanging from the ceiling that were draped over a balcony and the staircase leading up to the pulpit, under the title ‘They Call Me Mama’.… READ MORE

Panama Diocese Participates in Interreligious ‘Afternoon of Open Temples’

The ‘Interreligious Committee of Panama’ recently organized a so-called ‘Afternoon of Open Temples’ (Tarde de Templos Abiertos) in the nation’s capital of Panama City. It was the second of its kind, the first one having been celebrated last year.

From 2:00 pm to 7:00 pm on Aug. 15, 2024, as many as 12 different religions “communities of faith” opened the doors of their houses of worship to people from other religions or no religion at all, to offer them the opportunity to learn more about what they believe and do.… READ MORE

Francis Calls Virgin Mary the ‘Maternal Face of God’

The Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio — aka ‘Pope’ Francis — loves to introduce heresy, error, blasphemy, idolatry, tension, and confusion, no matter from what direction, or even from opposite directions at more or less the same time. As long as something is wrong or confusing, he has no problem with it!

We see this again today, when the Vatican released a ‘papal’ message dated June 29, 2024, for the 1,500th anniversary of the image of Saint Mary in Portico to the rector general of the Order of Clerics Regular of the Mother of God, the false pontiff remarked:

I urge you to look to Mary as a sign of consolation and sure hope, the maternal face of God and a dwelling place of refuge: indeed, she continually gives Her Son as the sole source of concord, hope of salvation, way for peace, absolute imperative of the human quest.

Francis Allows 100 Buddhist Monks to Pray Over Him at Vatican

On May 27, 2024, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) received a delegation of Buddhist monks from the Temple of the Reclining Buddha (officially named the Wat Phra Chetuphon Wimon Mangkhalaram Rajwaramahawihan) in Bangkok, Thailand.

As is customary, Francis gave them a short address. After expressing his delight regarding the “Seventh Buddhist-Christian Colloquium held in Thailand last November … on the theme ‘Karuna and Agape in Dialogue for the Healing of a Wounded Humanity and the Earth'”, he reiterated the importance of working together “to promote a friendship that sustains peace and fraternity and builds a more inclusive world” since “no one is saved alone” — an ambiguous slogan that he has been repeating a lot since his 2020 encyclical Fratelli Tutti (see n.… READ MORE

Over a Dozen ‘Prominent Catholics’ Warn Francis:
Resign or Be Deposed!

On May 2, 2024, the feast of Saint Athanasius, the semi-traditionalist blog Rorate Caeli published a ‘major statement’ against Jorge Bergoglio (aka ‘Pope Francis’). It is entitled “Call for the Resignation of Pope Francis” and bears the signatures of 16 people Life Site describes as “prominent Catholics”.

Just how prominent the signatories are, is another question, but it doesn’t really matter. Their names, along with their respective credentials, are listed by Rorate Caeli as follows:

Austrian Diocese Promotes Prayer to ‘God of Diversities’

(not an actual image used or promoted by the diocese of Graz-Seckau)

Exploring Lent in the Vatican II Church is always an adventure with much to discover. It’s also a bit dangerous because you just don’t know what you’re going to come across.

Whether it’s an Italian diocese urging Catholics to pray and eat with Muslims for Ramadan, an uplifting swing installed in church, a ‘retreat’ on a luxury cruise liner, a gigantic sweater draped in the cathedral sanctuary, an archdiocesan ‘retreat’ teaching ‘fidelity’ to sodomite couples, a despicable ‘art’ installation in church, or a set of horror ‘Stations of the Cross’ — the Lenten season in Novus Ordo Land never fails to surprise.… READ MORE

Idolatry, the Poor, and the God of Surprises: A Critical Look at Francis’ Sermon Ending the Synod 2023

The 2023 edition of the Synod on Synodality is over, and ‘Pope’ Francis did not fail to give an ideology-laden sermon for the closing ‘Mass’ in St. Peter’s Basilica last Sunday:

The theme of the sermon, based on the day’s Gospel (Mt 22:34-40), was the love of God and neighbor. It is one of Bergoglio’s favorite topics because it is so easy to manipulate and hijack in favor of his apostate agenda.… READ MORE

Do Pagans worship the True God without knowing it?
A Look at St. Paul’s Discourse to the Athenians

In Chapter 17 of the Acts of the Apostles, we find St. Paul discoursing with the pagan inhabitants of Athens, Greece. The city is immersed in idolatry, and the holy Apostle notices an altar dedicated “to the unknown god”. He uses this as a cue to preach to the Athenians the true God, whom indeed they do not yet know but are apparently disposed, however confusedly, to worship.

This incident is sometimes used by Novus Ordo apologists to support the positive view of paganism that the Vatican II religion has been fostering, and none more than Jorge Bergoglio, the man otherwise known as “Pope Francis”. … READ MORE

Three Novus Ordo Cardinals attend Syncretistic Pagan Worship Ceremony in Panama

On Oct. 29, 2022, the Italian web site La Nuova Bussola Quotidiana, which is the Italian edition of Daily Compass, reported on an interesting incident that took place in Panama in connection with the seventh Continental Symposium on Indian Theology, which had been held from Oct. 3-8.

But first, some background regarding the conference itself. Vatican News explains:

About 50 pastoral agents, bishops responsible for indigenous pastoral care, religious, lay people and indigenous theologians and delegates from their communities will reflect on the “Holy Spirit and the native peoples”, theme of the meeting, which aims to continue the path of deepening the doctrinal contents of Indian theology, to advance in its clarification in the light of the Word of God and the Magisterium of the Church.

Ever since Francis’ trip to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, in February of 2019, the false pope has left absolutely no doubt that he believes that the existence of many different religions is a positive thing, an asset for humanity, indeed willed by God Himself no less than He wills the existence of various races, languages, and the two sexes.

This issue came up again at the recent Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions held in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, in which His Phoniness took active part.… READ MORE

For ‘Access to the Sacred Circle of Spirits’: Francis participates in Native American Smudge Ceremony


His hand on his heart: Antipope Francis follows the instructions of the Native American “sage” Raymond Gros-Louis

Under his pseudonym “Pope Francis”, the Jesuit apostate Jorge Bergoglio is currently on an extended “apology tour” for Native Americans in Canada.

On his first full day in the land first evangelized by Jesuit missionaries in the 17th century, this past Monday, July 25, Bergoglio attended an indigenous “healing dance” performed for “Mother Earth”, the nature goddess which the false pope himself also adores or venerates. … READ MORE
