False pope again preaches mercy without repentance…

Francis to Women Prisoners: Christ Forgave Judas!

While Novus Ordo apologists like Jimmy Akin and Steve Kellmeyer try to persuade people that one can ‘hope’ for Judas Iscariot’s salvation, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio — otherwise known as ‘Pope Francis’ — has already moved beyond that idea and has now indicated that Judas was in fact forgiven by Jesus Christ.

He made this claim during a mini homily he gave during the ‘Mass of the Lord’s Supper’ (video here) at the Women’s Prison in Rebibbia, Italy. As the Vatican has not yet released an official English translation, we will use DeepL to translate directly from the Italian:

At this moment of the supper, two episodes attract our attention.

PROOF: Painting of Nude Jesus Caressing Judas Iscariot Hangs on Wall in ‘Pope’ Francis’ Study

(click image for larger version)

Three years ago, the Holy Thursday edition of the Vatican’s in-house newspaper Osservatore Romano dedicated much space on its first three pages to Judas Iscariot, the Apostle “who was the traitor” (Lk 6:16).

On the edition’s front page was displayed the picture of a bizarre-looking painting (see below), together with the headline of the editorial, “Judas and the Scandal of Mercy” (Giuda e lo scandalo della misericordia). It was written by Andrea Monda, the paper’s editor:

It was the latest Vatican attempt at trying to garner sympathy for the man whom Jesus Christ called the “Son of Perdition” (Jn 17:12).… READ MORE

Jorge Bergoglio and the Blasphemous ‘Hope’ of an Empty Hell


He always has something to say: papal pretender Jorge Mario Bergoglio, S.J.

The Italian late-night talk show Che Tempo Che Fa had a special guest on its Jan. 14, 2024 episode: the apostate Argentinian Jesuit Jorge Mario Bergoglio, marketed under his stage name ‘Pope Francis’.

For the second time in two years, the false pope was being interviewed live by the show’s host, Fabio Fazio.

Approximately 45 minutes into the show (full video here), Francis was asked about hell, that pesky dogma of eternal damnation for the wicked.… READ MORE

Judas Church: Vatican again evokes Sympathy for the Son of Perdition

We gave Giotto di Bondone’s Arrest of Christ painting a little aggiornamento (update)…

Article updated on April 12, 2023

Last week was Holy Week, and for the official newspaper of the Vatican that meant yet another opportunity to drum up emotional support for Judas Iscariot, the Apostle who killed himself in despair after he had betrayed his Lord and Redeemer.

The paper had already done the same thing two years ago, and of course ‘Pope’ Francis does his own cheerleading for Judas now and again:

Bergoglio and that pesky dogma of hell…

Hell is an Attitude? ‘Pope’ Francis shows he does not believe in Eternal Damnation for the Wicked

Not surprisingly, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (“Pope Francis”) doesn’t talk much about hell. When he does, it’s usually to deny its existence, or to deny that anyone is in it; or to downplay it in other ways, or simply to joke about it.

Bergoglio’s latest remarks on hell come from one of the half-dozen interviews released in just the last week or so, on the occasion of his 10-year anniversary as ‘Pope’. … READ MORE

Refuting a Novus Ordo apologist…

Yes, Judas is in Hell:
Response to Steve Kellmeyer

Steve Kellmeyer is a “conservative” Novus Ordo apologist who runs a blog appropriately named The Fifth Column. Its tagline, however, is misleading: “Orthodox Catholic commentary on current events.”

Just how orthodox that Fifth Column is, we have had occasion to demonstrate in the past:

This past Sunday, Apr.… READ MORE

How NOT to speak about the Holy Eucharist…

“The Greatness of God in a Piece of Bread”:

A Commentary on Francis’ Corpus Christi Sermon and Angelus Address

Always has a profound insight, or thinks he does: The Modernist antipope Jorge Bergoglio

This past Sunday, June 6, 2021, the Vatican observed the Solemnity of Corpus Christi or Corpus Domini, the Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist.

The false pope Jorge Bergoglio (“Francis”) has long had a very strained relationship with this feast. Not only does he habitually refuse to kneel before the “Blessed Sacrament” exposed for adoration (unlike for other occasions), he also refuses to participate in the processions (the only time he did was in 2013, his first year), and he repudiates the dogma of Transubstantiation, usually opting for the Lutheran heresy of Consubstantiation instead:

In a separate post, we already reported on the latest bout of Eucharistic Knee Failure that predictably attacked him; in this post, we shall focus on the words he spoke during his sermon, delivered in the evening, and what he said during the Angelus address he had given earlier in the day.… READ MORE

Sympathy for the Devil: Vatican Newspaper tries to elicit Compassion for Judas Iscariot on Holy Thursday

It is not a secret that “Pope” Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) has a soft spot for Judas Iscariot, the traitor whom our Blessed Lord called the “son of perdition” (Jn 17:12).

The false pope said as much in a television broadcast in 2017 on the Italian Novus Ordo channel TV2000. The program featured an in-depth conversation with Francis about the Lord’s Prayer, which has since been released as a book in English translation: Our Father: Reflections on the Lord’s Prayer (New York, NY: Image Books, 2018).… READ MORE

A quick Refutation of Austen Ivereigh’s outrageous Tweet defending Francis

It does not happen too often that we publish an entire blog post criticizing a single tweet, but this is one of those times.

Austen Ivereigh is a British writer who has been one of Francis’ admirers and cheerleaders from the very beginning. In 2014, he published a comprehensive biography of the man otherwise known as Jorge Bergoglio entitled, The Great Reformer: Francis and the Making of a Radical Pope.

In late 2016, Ivereigh attempted to vindicate Francis’ apostatic execration Amoris Laetitia by looking at “concrete cases.”… READ MORE

No kidding!

Francis: “Someone might think, ‘This Pope is a Heretic’…” for saying Judas Iscariot might be saved!

We all know that “Pope” Francis says the darndest things when he gives a scripted speech, but he is absolutely priceless when speaking off the cuff because it is then that his anti-Catholic mind is revealed most candidly.

The Italian Novus Ordo television station TV2000 has been running a broadcast program called Padre Nostro (“Our Father”), featuring in-depth conversations about the Lord’s Prayer with none other than “His Holiness”, Mr. Jorge Bergoglio. These have now been released as a book, Quando Pregate Dite Padre Nostro (“When you Pray, say Our Father”), and the Italian Corriere della Sera has just published an excerpt of it. READ MORE

JUDAS CHURCH:
Austrian Novus Ordos Seek Rehabilitation of Judas Iscariot

judas-requiem.jpg
This says a lot about the spiritual state of souls in the Novus Ordo Church: They want to rehabilitate the “Son of Perdition”, Judas Iscariot. Have a look:

Yes, in Austria, the country that gave the world Adolf Hitler, some Novus Ordos, with the blessing of their diocesan “bishop”, seek the rehabilitation of Judas, who betrayed our Lord Jesus Christ and died in despair by committing suicide, thus ensuring his own damnation. Our Lord called him a “devil” (Jn 6:71) and said of him, “Those whom thou gavest me have I kept; and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled” (Jn 17:12).… READ MORE
