An important reality check…

Are Novus Ordos Rediscovering Belief in the Real Presence, as a Recent Poll Claims? Not So Fast…

Every now and then, a new poll or research study gets published showing that only a certain (low) percentage of people in the United States who identify as Roman Catholics (and even attend Mass the ‘Eucharistic celebration’ frequently) actually believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist; that is, only so many self-proclaimed Catholics actually adhere to the Church’s dogmatic teaching of Transubstantiation.

For example, in the summer of 2019, the Pew Research Center reported that, based on a scientific survey it had conducted, only one-third of “self-described Catholics” in the U.S.… READ MORE

Hell in Church: ‘Holy Hydra’ Events Profane the Sacred in Austria

Hell in Church:
‘Holy Hydra’ Events Profane the Sacred in Austria

We have had countless posts exposing all kinds of blasphemy, desecration, profanation, and sacrilege in Catholic churches over the last few decades, but the event known as Holy Hydra is deserving of yet another such post.

It was in 2018 that the ‘Hydra Culture Club’ of Linz, Austria, began performing in churches once a year. The latest such event took place on June 14, 2024, in the ‘Catholic’ Church of the Risen Christ in the small town of Gmunden, part of the diocese of Linz.… READ MORE

Vatican Issues Ecumenical ‘Study Document’ Downgrading the Papacy to Appeal to Non-Catholics

The Vatican’s next salvo against Roman Catholicism has been fired, this time in the name of ecumenism and synodality.

Today the Vatican’s so-called Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity released a 146-page ‘study’ document entitled The Bishop of Rome: Primacy and Synodality in the Ecumenical Dialogues and in the Responses to the Encyclical Ut Unum Sint. It contains a preface by the Swiss ‘Cardinal’ Kurt Koch, who is the prefect of the Dicastery, meaning he is the Vatican’s top ecumenist.… READ MORE

Lucía Caram Padilla (b. 1966) is an Argentine Dominican nun living in Barcelona, Spain. She has a history of making heretical, blasphemous, or otherwise scandalous remarks and is a living reminder to the world that simply wearing a religious habit does not make one Catholic, holy, or even just basically decent.

For example, in 2017 Sister Lucia said on Spanish television: “I think Mary was in love with Joseph and that they were a normal couple – and having sex is a normal thing.… READ MORE

Undignified: Novus Ordo Chapel Sign Depicts Precious Blood of Jesus as Blood Spatter

Image source: Facebook (fair use)

On Wednesday, May 29, 2024, the Novus Ordo parish of St. Michael the Archangel in Miescisko, Poland (diocese of Gniezno), held a dedication ceremony for its chapel of the Precious Blood. It was presided over by the local ordinary, ‘Archbishop’ Wojciech Polak, who is also the Primate of Poland.

A 12-minute video with highlights of the ceremony is available on YouTube.

The title image shows the entrance to the chapel. The red ink blotches that look like blood spatter are apparently supposed to depict the Most Precious Blood spilled by Our Savior.… READ MORE

Francis to Seminarian Dismissed for Homosexuality: ‘Go Ahead With Your Vocation’

When it comes to advancing and strengthening the sodomite influence in his counterfeit church, ‘Pope’ Francis moves quickly and with determination.

Barely had the controversy over his ‘anti-gay slur’ during a closed-door meeting with Italian Novus Ordo bishops erupted — he had reportedly said that there were too many sodomites already in the church and therefore such people should not be admitted to seminary — when the Vatican quickly communicated an apology of sorts (which, of course, was not enough for some).

This demonstrates that Club Francis knows fully well about the importance of clarifying what could be misunderstood and making reparation for harm done.… READ MORE

Vatican World Children’s Day Features Drag Artist for Kids

What? You don’t want some effeminate creep with lipstick entertaining your little ones?

This past weekend, the Vatican put on the first World Children’s Day festival.

The event was first announced by ‘Pope’ Francis on Dec. 8, 2023. It is an initiative of the Vatican Dicastery for Culture and Education under the headship of its prefect, ‘Cardinal’ José Tolentino Calaça de Mendonça.

The main event for this inaugural edition took place at Rome’s Olympic Stadium on Saturday, May 25. An almost 4-hour video has been made available by Vatican News:

Outside the stadium, a ‘Children’s Village’ was set up in the Foro Italico park, where various shows and activities for children were available between 10 am and 2 pm on Saturday.… READ MORE

Australian Novus Ordo bishops approve ‘Mass of the Land of the Holy Spirit’…

‘Pope’ Francis’ interview with CBS’ 60 Minutes: A classic exercise in Modernist deception. Plus: George Weigel put together some questions the interviewer should have asked.

Consider yourself warned: Francis asks laity to prepare for Synod’s ‘prophetic’ stage. And if that doesn’t give him what he wants, why he may just overrule it!

Nothing to see here, just a Jesuit-run church in Georgia promoting a transgender movie and a pro-LGBT retreat in its parish bulletin.… READ MORE

[UPDATE 21-MAY-2024 19:06 UTC: Diocese of Lexington issues Communiqué on ‘Brother Christian’ Matson]

Crazy news out of the ‘Catholic’ diocese of Lexington, Kentucky: A hermit thought to be a male has informed the world he is ‘transgender’. In other words, he is actually a woman who roughly two decades ago had her externals altered so that she now looks and sounds like a man. What is more, this woman-pretending-to-be-a-man made her announcement with the full support of the local Novus Ordo bishop.… READ MORE

Bergoglio Doubles Down: All Religions Look at the One God in Different Ways!

It is often difficult to keep up with ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio), but here at Novus Ordo Watch, we do try. Even though he is 87 years old, when it comes to advancing the Great Apostasy, there is simply no slowing down for him.

On May 18, 2024, the false pope made a trip to the city of Verona in northern Italy. One of his stops there was Montorio Prison, where he addressed the inmates.

Vatican News has released the video footage of the event:

When Bergoglio visits prisons, he often points out that God forgives always, although he never mentions the conditions necessary to receive that forgiveness; and it was no different this time around.… READ MORE

Norms for Proceeding in the Discernment
of Alleged Supernatural Phenomena

May 17, 2024

The Vatican’s text factory has just released another official document: Jorge Bergoglio (a.k.a. ‘Pope Francis’) has approved the publication of an instruction issued by the so-called Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) establishing ‘Norms for Proceeding in the Discernment of Alleged Supernatural Phenomena’. The document does not appear to have an official title besides this descriptive one. The new guidelines are replacing those issued in 1978 under ‘Pope’ Paul VI.

So far, the Vatican has made the text of the Norms available in the following languages:

The key changes made by the new Norms appear to be that the local bishop no longer has authority to declare an alleged apparition to be of supernatural origin, and the Vatican will ordinarily not rule regarding its supernatural authenticity either.… 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:

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

Bergoglio, The Remnant, and the Gates of Hell

Abandon the false pope, not Catholicism!

Bergoglio, The Remnant, and the Gates of Hell

On May 7, 2024, The Remnant published a brief article by Robert Lazu Kmita in which the author candidly struggles with answering a challenge by an Eastern Orthodox acquaintance of his regarding the indefectibility of the Catholic Church under the supposition that Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) is in fact the Roman Pontiff:

Kmita puts the following challenge on the lips of his Eastern Orthodox interlocutor:

“Well? What about the statement of the Savior Jesus ‘That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it’?
