Francis rumored to be preparing new Decree against Traditional Latin Mass

It behooves bloggers to be careful with rumors. It is too easy for a story to make the rounds that ends up being false — “fake news”, as it is called in our day.

At the same time, not all rumors are equal. Some are more credible than others, and in the case of the one before us right now, we think it worth reporting on, considering the source: the German ‘indult’ blog Motu-proprio: Summorum-Pontificum, which is run by Michael Charlier. It is a kind of German equivalent to the English-speaking Rorate Caeli blog, although the two are not connected.… READ MORE

Bergoglio: Proselytism is Pagan!

No compromises with paganism, see?

Bergoglio: Proselytism is Pagan!


Doesn’t want you to succumb to paganism: Jorge Mario Bergoglio as ‘Pope Francis’

This past Wednesday, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio — “Pope Francis” — began a new cycle of catechetical lectures for his weekly general audience. The topic of this new series is the passion for evangelization, the believer’s zeal for mission. And who better to preach on this than the Jesuit from Buenos Aires, who considers false religions an “enrichment” for humanity and asserts that God wants there to be a diversity of religions?

Of course the false pope wasted no time making clear that he is not talking about that detested proselytism, which would mean trying to convert others to Catholicism by means of arguments, that is, by trying to convince others of the truth of the Catholic Faith.… READ MORE

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

Explanation of Acts 17:22-23

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

Podcast Interview: Who was Joseph Ratzinger / Benedict XVI?

Destroyer of the Faith with traditional façade…

Podcast Interview:
Who was Joseph Ratzinger / Benedict XVI?

While countless commentators are currently singing the praises of the late, oh-so conservative ‘Pope Emeritus’ Benedict XVI up and down the internet, Kevin Davis of the Catholic Family Podcast invited yours truly to discuss the real Joseph Ratzinger, that is, the theologian Ratzinger from the perspective of pre-Vatican II Catholicism.

There is so much to say about the deceased Benedict XVI, but of course only comparatively little can be included in a one-hour podcast interview.

Here are some source links to document the items discussed in the broadcast:

Kneeling not allowed?
Man refused ‘Communion’ at Ratzinger Funeral (Video)

Today the funeral for ‘Pope Emeritus’ Benedict XVI took place in St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican, with Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) presiding. When it came time for the distribution of the invalid communion hosts, a curious incident occurred — and was caught on video.

A man wearing a hoodie walks up to the rail to receive the ‘Eucharist’, kneels down, and removes the hood from his head, as is proper. He opens his mouth to receive, but the Novus Ordo priest signals his unwillingness to give him the host in that way.… READ MORE

The Funeral of ‘Pope Emeritus’ Benedict XVI

UPDATED 05-JAN-2022 15:51 UTC

At approximately 8:50 am local Rome time today, pallbearers processed into St. Peter’s Square, Vatican City, carrying a coffin containing the body of Joseph Ratzinger, the man known from 2005 to 2013 as ‘Pope Benedict XVI’.

The five sorrowful decades of the Rosary were then prayed publicly in the square for the deceased, and subsequently the solemn funeral liturgy began, presided over in part by Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) and ‘Cardinal’ Giovanni Battista Re, the Dean of the College of Novus Ordo Cardinals.… READ MORE

Diocese of Essen, Germany, features new Diocesan Logo

Just stunning…

Diocese of Essen, Germany, features new Diocesan Logo

In 2022, the Novus Ordo diocese of Essen, Germany, decided to give itself a visual makeover by rebranding with a new logo to reflect its contemporary attitude of renewal, dialogue, and togetherness.

The result of this diocesan facelift can be seen in the edifying result above.

No, the diocese is not embarrassed about its new logo. On the contrary, it is celebrating it as “modern, lively, different”. An article on its official web site introducing the artistic mishap — called the “Dialogue Cross” — explains:

With the Dialogue Cross as the new logo and central element, the diocese picks up a symbol that has accompanied and shaped the renewal processes in the Catholic Church between the Rhine, Ruhr and Lenne rivers for eleven years.

Interview with Jesuit ‘America’ journalists…

Francis: ‘If I see the Gospel in a Sociological Way only, Yes, I am Communist, and so too is Jesus’

Sometimes ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) says outrageous things that go under, simply because he says and does so many other outrageous things that one cannot read or process everything in due time.

Thus it is that we must turn once again to the interview Francis gave to journalists affiliated with the Jesuit rag America, which was published Nov. 28:

America‘s departing editor-in-chief, ‘Fr.’… READ MORE

On Christmas Day, Dec. 25, 2022, the Sant’Egidio Community of Rome celebrated its 40th annual Christmas luncheon inside the Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere.

Vatican News reports excitedly:

Approximately 300 of Rome’s poor, homeless, and elderly people, as well as several Ukrainian refugees, attended the traditional Christmas luncheon organized by the Community of St. Egidio in Rome’s St. Mary in Trastevere Church.

After a countdown and Christmas greetings, guests were treated to generous portions of lasagna, meatloaf, lentils, and typical Christmas desserts.

Francis claims Virgin Mary had Labor Pains, undermines Catholic Dogma

Year after year, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (“Pope Francis”) gives his annual Christmas address to the Roman Curia, just a few days before the great feast of the Nativity of our Lord. On the same day, he also delivers Christmas greetings to the employees of Vatican City. It is in that address that he dropped a quasi-heretical and blasphemous bombshell today.

The main focus of his brief remarks to Vatican workers was that he wished them serenity for Christmas, a serenity as that experienced by the Holy Family.… READ MORE

Year-End Giving 2022 and THANK YOU!

Wrapping up 2022…

Year-End Giving 2022 and THANK YOU!

It is hard to believe, but yet another year has passed, a year in which Jorge Bergoglio has shifted the apostasy of the Vatican II religion further into overdrive.

In 2022, we published (so far) 140 blog posts, 20 express podcasts, and 3 full-length podcasts. Countless hours were spent reading, researching, writing, recording, arguing — simply creating content. On top of that, we also corresponded with countless individuals who had contacted Novus Ordo Watch for help or further information, although, unfortunately, not always in a timely fashion.

You helped make it all possible.… READ MORE

Podcast: The Rev. Frank Pavone Defrocking Drama

The news that broke this past Saturday, Dec. 17, regarding the Rev. Frank Pavone having been removed from the [Novus Ordo] priesthood by ‘Pope’ Francis, has developed into a drama that will probably be with us for a while.

Our initial blog post, since revised with countless updates, can be accessed here:

Although one’s gut reaction upon first hearing this news may be to assume that the usual suspects in the Vatican are simply trying to delegitimize an outspoken opponent of abortion, it quickly becomes apparent that there is more to this story than meets the eye at first.… READ MORE
