The tyranny “Pope” Francis has unleashed upon the vigorous and growing order of the Franciscans of the Immaculate (who adopt the so-called “indult” position of trying to be traditional Catholics yet only with the “permission” of the Modernist hierarchy, to which they submit), whose only “crime” has been to prefer the pre-Vatican II liturgical books to those of the Novus Ordo, is coming to a head.… READ MORE

Finally, for the first time, the “Apostolic Commissioner” Fidenzio Volpi, OFM Cap., de facto now the head of the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate, has officially admitted to the real reason for the far-reaching interference with the order when “Pope” Francis issued a blanket prohibition against their use of the 1962 Missal (“Traditional Latin Mass”) on July 11, 2013: They were “crypto-Lefebvrian” or at least “traditionalist.”… READ MORE
SSPX Update
The Superior General of the Society of St. Pius X, Bishop Bernard Fellay, has given an interview in which he discusses “Pope” Francis, the state of the Novus Ordo Church, and how the SSPX is currently engaging in its “resistance” against both. Conducted in French, the interview is available with English subtitles in the video above, but you can also read a full English transcript here:
Here are some highlights of what Bp. Fellay says in the interview:
Update on “Fr.” Kramer’s Rejection of Francis
On November 29, 2013, we had happily reported that the well-known resistance traditionalist Rev. Paul Kramer, editor of The Devil’s Final Battle, had rejected Jorge Bergoglio’s claim to be the Pope of the Catholic Church and declared that the Holy See was vacant. Shortly thereafter, however, Kramer began claiming that Benedict XVI — officially the “Pope Emeritus” — was still reigning despite his resignation effective February 28 of this year. Here is what he posted on his Facebook page the day after announcing “sede vacante”:
The reason Kramer gives for his new position is that he believes Ratzinger’s resignation to have been invalid because it was obtained, so he is convinced, through coercion (acc.… READ MORE
World’s Most Famous Apostate speaks…
One infallibly certain way to find out if something is good or bad is to see what Hans Kung thinks about it — and then take the opposite stance.
Not surprisingly, the 85-year-old Swiss über-apostate blasphemer is excited at the direction in which Francis is taking the Vatican II Church, specifically as most recently manifested in the lengthy “Apostolic Exhortation” Evangelii Gaudium which “Pope” Francis promulgated on Nov. 24, 2013.
Writing for the Passauer Neue Presse but published in English in The Tablet, Kung opines:
Church reform is forging ahead.

Update 12/3/13: Rev. Kramer: “Benedict is still Pope!” (click here)
Thank Almighty God for His goodness!
On November 28, 2013, the Feast of St. Catherine Laboure, the Rev. Paul Leonard Kramer announced on his Facebook page that he rejects Francis’ claim to the papacy due to manifest heresy found in his newly-published “Apostolic Exhortation” Evangelii Gaudium. The Rev. Kramer is not unknown among traditionalists in the Vatican II Church. He is editor of the immensely popular book The Devil’s Final Battle and has written for publications such as The Fatima Crusader and appeared at various conferences.… READ MORE
Like most of his five predecessors of unhappy memory, it takes Francis a lot of words to express what he wants to say: At 65 printed pages, 288 paragraphs, 217 footnotes, and over 50,000 English words in total, this Post-Synodal “Apostolic Exhortation” is John Paul II on Steroids. The word “Pius” appears as often as the word “sourpusses” (par. 85) — exactly once: a brief and obscure reference to a speech by Pope Pius XI in 1927, in a footnote (n.
More “Catholic” Youth Outreach…
Hell on Earth: The “Christotheque” is Part of the “New Evangelization”
[from Tradition In Action; with minor edits by Novus Ordo Watch]
The ‘Christotheque’ arrives in Italy: an image of Hell
Producing mixed sentiments of torment, fear and elation, the “Christotheque” – the “Catholic” version of the discotheque – has arrived in Italy. To the hypnotic beat of heavy metal, set with the lyrics of Psalms, thousands of youths deliver themselves to the frenetic spell of rock ‘n roll.
They dance-jive in an atmosphere of orgy in the darkened auditorium, machine-gunned by lights that change by the second, flashing in different colors and producing illusory impressions such as the hellish fire shown above.
“No Rupture with the Past” Update
The following is a collage of fourteen pitiful table-like constructs that are used in Novus Ordo churches as “altars” on which “Catholic” pseudo-clerics perform the Protestant-Masonic Novus Ordo Worship Service (which they sometimes still call “Mass” but usually refer to as their “Eucharistic celebration”).

Some Background
On May 13, 1917, the very day when Pope Benedict XV consecrated the future Pope Pius XII a bishop, the Mother of God first appeared to three shepherd children at a place called Cova da Iria at Fatima, Portugal. The eldest of the three was Lucia de Jesus dos Santos, who later widely came to be known simply as “Sister Lucy” of Fatima. The Blessed Virgin appeared a total of six times to the children, always on the 13th day of the month, from May to October of the same year.
When the Body is more important than the Soul…
The Vatican is now officially and openly “gay-friendly.” On Saturday, November 16, 2013, an openly homosexual Maryland high school student by the name of Jack Andraka received an award at the Vatican for his work in cancer research, having discovered a way to test for pancreatic cancer in its early stages.
While his scientific contribution is no doubt very laudable, the idea of the Vatican, which is supposed to be the highest moral authority on earth, granting an award to an open sodomite is beyond appalling.… READ MORE
You can’t make this stuff up…
If only two weeks ago Novus Ordo Watch had stated that Jorge Bergoglio, aka “Pope Francis”, deserves to be honored as one of the most important Jews of 2013, we would have immediately been accused of “anti-semitism”, “spreading hate”, and all the other (by now) meaningless terms typically used by the whiny, brainless, oh-so-tolerant left of various disguises (Mark Shea comes to mind). These people are incapable of taking a real and objective look at issues and analyze them in the light of traditional Catholic teaching, especially when it comes to the topic of Judaism, a veritable Golden Calf (pun fully intended) in the Novus Ordo religion and Western society at large.… READ MORE
