We live in a time of deception: Lies, illusions, absurdities abound. We live in a world in which a girl can be a Boy Scout, a man can be Woman of the Year, a white person can be black, and someone can (supposedly) be head of the Catholic religion who is not even a member of it.

In this insane world, we found earlier this year that a woman who had herself surgically altered to look like a man is living as a ‘Catholic’ religious brother (hermit) in the diocese of Lexington, Kentucky.… READ MORE

Anime Kitsch for the Masses:
Vatican Presents Mascot for Jubilee Year 2025

The year of Our Lord 2025 is a Holy Year of Jubilee, something that ordinarily takes place every 25 years.

For the Vatican under Novus Ordo occupation, this means, first of all, a logo for the occasion is needed. Back in 2022, we reported on the cringeworthy ‘artwork’ the Vatican had chosen for its Jubilee ’25 logo, which supposedly depicts the Holy Year motto, “Pilgrims of Hope”:

If that is what ‘pilgrims of hope’ look like, one would hate to see pilgrims of despair.… READ MORE

Bizarre Penitential Vigil in St. Peter’s: The ‘Synodal Church’ Confesses Its Sins

Bizarre penitential vigil in St. Peter’s Basilica…

The ‘Synodal Church’ Confesses Its Sins

This month, the ultimate Novus Ordo blather circus returns to Vatican City for its second round: the much-touted ‘Synod on Synodality’!

From Oct. 2-27, hundreds of synod participants will spend three-and-a-half weeks taking part in the final act of this ‘mother of all synods’. Originally meant to run only from 2021-2023, Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) saw fit to extend it by a year to help ensure the ultimate ‘walking together’ experience.

For those don’t remember how this went last year, here’s a refresher:

Like last year, a pre-synod retreat was held, from Sep.… READ MORE

Synod Spiritual Adviser in Vatican Newspaper: Same-Sex Desire was Created by God!

L’Osservatore Romano (‘The Roman Observer’) is the Vatican’s own in-house newspaper, currently under the editorship of Andrea Monda, who was appointed by ‘Pope’ Francis in 2018. The paper is published daily in Italian and less frequently in other languages. A weekly English edition has been issued since 1968.

The Italian edition of Sep. 19, 2024, contains a brief article by the Rev. Timothy Radcliffe, O.P. (pictured above). It is entitled “Portatori del Vangelo gli uni per gli altri” (‘Bearers of the Gospel for one another’) and printed on page 6 under the Zona Franca rubric.… READ MORE

Vatican Newspaper Publishes Bishop’s Foreword to ‘Way of the Cross of a Gay Boy’

Shamefully shameless…

Vatican Newspaper Publishes
Bishop’s Foreword to Way of the Cross of a Gay Boy

‘Bp.’ Francesco Savino and the Vatican newspaper endorse the Way of the Cross of a Gay Boy…

L’Osservatore Romano, Italian for The Roman Observer, is the official newspaper of the Vatican. It used to be, of course, a journal of pristine orthodoxy long time ago, but now it has been a Modernist rag for decades. Its current editor-in-chief, appointed by ‘Pope’ Francis in 2018, is Andrea Monda of ‘mercy-for-Judas’ infamy.

On Mar. 25 of this year, the daily Italian edition of the paper printed a scandalous piece written by an Italian Novus Ordo bishop that didn’t get much attention at the time, perhaps because it was Holy Week.… READ MORE

Talkative Bergoglio Shamefully SILENT on Olympic Blasphemy

All of a sudden, he’s got nothing to say!

Talkative Bergoglio Shamefully SILENT on Olympic Blasphemy

By now, everyone has heard about the incredibly vile and utterly Satanic mockery of the Last Supper that took place on July 26, 2024, as part of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games currently underway in Paris, France.

It was surely no accident that about 24 hours later, Paris suffered an electric blackout which only left the Basilica of the Sacred Heart (Sacré-Cœur) illuminated.

A number of Novus Ordo prelates and personalities quickly weighed in on the matter, although in different ways.… READ MORE

Contents

  • Segment 1 — The Vatican’s new guidelines for discerning alleged apparitions and mystical phenomena. Eric Sammons and that pesky question of whether Francis professes the Catholic Faith. The Remnant promotes Pope Pius IX’s encyclical Qui Pluribus but rejects its teaching on the Papacy.

A ‘Garden of Encounter’: Vatican Releases Idiotic ‘Children’s Declaration on Fraternity’

A ‘Garden of Encounter’: Vatican Releases Idiotic Children’s Declaration on Fraternity

Children wearing laurels alternate reading a declaration on human fraternity…

The second annual so-called World Meeting on Human Fraternity ended today in Vatican City.

The two-day event, sponsored by the Fratelli Tutti Foundation, was a follow-up to last year’s single-day event by that name, which was a complete bust as practically no one showed up and pictures of St. Peter’s Square showed lots of empty chairs (ha!):

Whereas last year’s meeting bore the title ‘Not Alone’, this year’s edition was labeled ‘Be Human’.… READ MORE

‘Cardinal’ Cantalamessa: Even if Christ Really Said What John’s Gospel Claims He Said, That Doesn’t Mean It’s True!

Blasphemy and heresy from preacher of ‘papal’ household…

‘Cardinal’ Cantalamessa: Even if Christ Really Said What John’s Gospel Claims He Said, That Doesn’t Mean It’s True!

Ordained a priest in 1958, the Franciscan Capuchin ‘Cardinal’ Raniero Cantalamessa (b. 1934) has been the Novus Ordo Vatican’s ‘Preacher of the Papal Household’ since 1980. Every year the Italian preacher is tasked with giving sermons to the ‘Pope’ and the Roman Curia during Lent and Advent, usually on Fridays, and the current year is no different.

A news report released by Catholic Culture‘s ‘Catholic World News’ summarizes Cantalamessa’s latest Lenten sermon series as follows:

The overarching theme of Cardinal Cantalamessa’s 2024 Lenten sermons was “But who do you say that I am?”

Prominent Sodomites in Uruguay Receive Vatican-Approved ‘Blessing’ after ‘Wedding’

“I will … curse your blessings, yea I will curse them…” (Mal 2:2)

Homo-Church: Prominent Sodomites in Uruguay Receive Vatican-Approved ‘Blessing’ after ‘Wedding’

In Uruguay, Mr. Carlos Perciavalle, 82, and Mr. Jimmy Castilhos, 47, are a famous flamboyant sodomite couple — or, as ‘Pope’ Francis would say, they are “two people who love each other”.

Perciavalle is “a well-known actor, comedian and director” and Castilhos “a theater producer, presenter and communicator”, according to a report by Jules Gomes of Church Militant.

On Monday, Feb. 19, 2024, the two men pretended to marry each other in a civil ceremony which the Uruguayan secular authority recognizes as a valid marriage.… READ MORE

‘Popesplaining’ Gone Wrong: ‘Pope’ Francis Rains on Michael Lofton’s Parade

‘Popesplaining’ Gone Wrong:
‘Pope’ Francis Rains on Michael Lofton’s Parade


Right: Mr. Michael Lofton, Th.D. candidate and owner of expensive books

As we duly reported on this blog on Jan. 25, 2024, the Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby — himself a mere layman on account of the general invalidity of Anglican orders — offered an invalid Mass (‘Eucharistic liturgy’) at the Catholic Basilica of St. Bartholomew in Rome, and he did so with the permission of ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio):

The nullity (invalidity) of Anglican orders was declared by Pope Leo XIII in his 1896 bull Apostolicae Curae.… READ MORE

Vatican Announces St. Peter’s Basilica Is Open for Blessing Gay Couples

‘Fiducia Supplicans’ in action!

Vatican Announces St. Peter’s Basilica
Is Open for Blessing Gay Couples

A tip of the hat for this story goes to the Secretum Meum Mihi blog.

This morning, the ‘Holy See’ held a press conference regarding restoration work to be done on the Baldacchino over the high altar at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City.

Since ‘Cardinal’ Mauro Gambetti, the Archpriest of St. Peter’s, was among the panelists, journalist Franca Giansoldati of Il Messaggero used the opportunity to ask him whether, in light of the authorization given by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith in the declaration Fiducia Supplicans, couples in perverted sexual unions ‘irregular unions’ could receive a blessing also in the famous papal basilica.… READ MORE

Another Scandalous Fernández Book Unearthed: DDF Prefect Published Blasphemous Porn in 1998

‘Mystical Passion: Spirituality and Sensuality’…

Another Scandalous Fernández Book Unearthed:
DDF Prefect Published Blasphemous Porn in 1998

There are news stories so sordid that no decent person wants to cover them. Then there are news stories so significant that there’s no way one can ignore them.

This current one is a mix of both, so please be forewarned:

The remainder of the post, including any links, may include explicit words or ideas that pertain to human sexuality and/or involve blasphemy.

In 1998, then-‘Fr.’ Victor Manuel Fernandez, today the prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, published a book on spirituality and erotic love that is so sexually explicit/pornographic that it makes his 1995 book Heal Me With Your Mouth look like a chastity manual by comparison.… READ MORE

‘Love Is Never Wrong’: Vatican Scrambles to Defend Homo Couple Blessings


Rocco Buttiglione defends Fiducia Supplicans for Vatican News

The release of the declaration Fiducia Supplicans on Dec. 18, 2023, has turned into a fiasco or, as we would say in the United States, into a dumpster fire. In multiple subsequent interviews, the DDF prefect ‘Cardinal’ Victor Manuel Fernandez has attempted to stop the bleeding while continuing to engage in the impossible balancing act of affirming both the novelty of Fiducia Supplicans and yet also its supposed fidelity to Tradition.

The recognize-and-resist traditionalists are celebrating that so many Novus Ordo bishops are apparently rejecting the doctrinal declaration that permits the blessing of adulterous and sodomitical couples, thinking the ‘resistance’ has scored a great victory thereby.… READ MORE
