UPDATE 15-JAN-20 19:25 UTC:

The latest Vatican chaos is complete.

As first reported on Sunday, Jan. 12, 2020, a new book defending priestly celibacy and opposing women’s ordination authored by “Pope Emeritus” Benedict XVI (Joseph Ratzinger) and head of the Congregation for Divine Worship “Cardinal” Robert Sarah will be released in French on Jan.… READ MORE

If only he’d stuck with the Lutherans…

When the Pastor couldn’t make it:
Francis reveals he once led a Lutheran Service

On Friday, Jan. 10, 2020, “Pope” Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) received the Rev. Michael Jonas in a private audience. Although his nationality is German, Jonas is the pastor of the Evangelical-Lutheran community in Rome, a post he’s held since 2018. Most of the roughly 500 members there are or speak German, the language of Martin Luther.

The main reason for the meeting between the two non-Catholics was to discuss the difficulties encountered by the churches in a secularized Europe, according to the Novus Ordo site domradio.deREAD MORE

Why offend people when you can offend God?!

Italian Novus Ordo Bishop silences Creed for Epiphany because it might offend Non-Catholics in Attendance

When Francis appointed Mr. Derio Olivero (b. 1961) “bishop” of the diocese of Pinerolo in 2017, he knew what he was doing. Olivero is clearly cut from the same faithless cloth as his boss.

This he demonstrated on Monday, Jan. 6, during a solemn Novus Ordo worship service for the Feast of the Epiphany held at the cathedral of Pinerolo. At the end of his sermon, after which the rubrics prescribe the praying of the Creed, Olivero instructed his hapless congregation to remain silent rather than profess aloud what they believe in. … READ MORE

Speaking of blasphemy…

Francis: “Every Form of Violence inflicted upon a Woman is a Blasphemy against God”

In the past we have seen many examples of where Jorge Bergoglio — “Pope” Francis — speaks of man as if he were God, and sometimes he treats him that way too. As of Jan. 1, 2020, however, we know that he not only believes that man is God but that woman is, too.

In his New Year’s Day sermon for the Novus Ordo Feast of Mary the Mother of God — in the traditional Roman calendar, it is the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ — the Argentinian squatter occupying the Vatican’s Casa Santa Marta declared:

The rebirth of humanity began from a woman.

How Holy Mother Church teaches her children…

What are Catholics Bound to Believe?

These days it is very fashionable — among those who acknowledge Jorge Bergoglio as a valid Pope, yet try to adhere to the immemorial Catholic Faith — to minimize what Catholics are required and permitted to believe by restricting it to those things that were taught by the Church prior to the death of Pope Pius XII in 1958, plus a few select doctrines and ideas that they have privately judged to be “in conformity with Tradition”, as their jargon usually goes. As for the rest, that is declared to be either impermissible or at least “utterly non-binding”, to stay with the typical recognize-and-resist lingo, in defiance of the official teaching of the people they claim are the present-day Catholic authorities.… READ MORE

“Merry Christmas” from Belgium…

Noël des Cathédrales: Belgian Cathedrals profaned with Flamboyant Theater for Christmas

“Lift up thy hands against their pride unto the end;
see what things the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.” (Ps 73:3)

Belgium is one of the world’s greatest victims of the “New Springtime” of Vatican II.

By 2018, “Mass” attendance among those claiming to be Catholics there had dropped below 10%; and the youth, that much-touted “future of the Church”, aren’t helping: “Weekly Mass attendance ranged from 2-6 percent among young Catholics in Belgium, Hungary, Austria, Lithuania and Germany”, a 2018 report by Catholic News Agency states.… READ MORE

Commotion in St. Peter’s Square

Culture of Encounter: Francis angrily slaps Woman pulling his Arm to get his Attention

No “contemplative gaze” here: Bergoglio upset after woman forcibly pulls his arm to get his attention on Dec. 31

[UPDATE 01-JAN-2020: At Angelus, Francis apologizes for how he reacted towards the woman]

For the false pope Francis, the year 2019 ended a bit differently than he had presumably expected.

At the Vatican, the last day of the year typically concludes with a celebration of Vespers and the chanting of the Te Deum in St. Peter’s Basilica, followed by a “papal” visit to the Nativity scene in St.… READ MORE

Getting in Touch with “Mother Earth” at Vatican Christmas Concert

A young indigenous woman demonstrates how to feel the spirit of “Mother Earth” at the Vatican, Dec. 14, 2019

If you thought that the whole Mother Earth/Pachamama/Gaia worship at the Vatican was simply an excess of the turbulent Amazon Synod and therefore a thing of an inglorious past, you are sorely mistaken. Far from it being a one-time aberration, it is now becoming a recurring theme that is popping up again and again in Novus Ordo Land.

Not only was the idol worshipped before and during the Amazon Synod in and around the Vatican, even at the closing “Mass” in St.… READ MORE

Chaos Frank lets it rip…

Bergoglian Poppycock by the Truckload:

Francis’ Christmas Address to the Roman Curia

The Jesuit apostate from Buenos Aires currently occupying Vatican City, Jorge Bergoglio, has once again outdone himself. In a 3500-word “Christmas address” to the Roman Curia, the 83-year-old man who presents himself to the world under the pseudonym “Pope Francis” delivered yet another Modernist manifesto, with the clear aim of getting his sheeple in line to accept the next tidal wave of doctrinal and disciplinary change.

The Vatican has provided a full transcript and English translation of the talk, as well as the video footage:

An interesting backstory to this speech was supposed to remain secret but has been revealed by Sandro Magister.… READ MORE

Bah! Humbug!

A Pachamama Christmas with the Franciscans International

The Novus Ordo organization Franciscans International, headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, has emailed out a virtual Christmas card to its supporters.

Or rather, they sent out what is supposed to be a Christmas card. You can see it displayed above and find it linked here. Who would have thought that good ol’ Pachamama of Amazon Synod infamy — also known as Gaia — would make an appearance in it?

The card bears the title Visitatio Mariae, which means “Visitation of Mary”. Taken at face value, this would mean that the hideous-looking and nude pregnant Pagan woman squatting in front of the Blessed Mother is St.… READ MORE

A necessary retraction

Regarding a Post that Disappeared:
The New Study on Man by the Vatican Biblical Commission

Well, folks, sometimes it’s just too “good” to be true: We had to quickly remove a post a few minutes after publication earlier today after it became known that all the sources we had relied on to write it — from multiple sites and in different languages — were incorrect, that is, they had misunderstood an essential part of the story.

In a nutshell: The so-called Pontifical Biblical Commission, of which the current head is the Jesuit “Cardinal” Luis Ladaria Ferrer in his capacity as head of the Congregation for the Destruction of the Faith, just recently published a study commissioned by Francis entitled Che cosa è l’uomo?READ MORE

Bergoglio claims calling Mary “Co-Redemptrix” is “foolishness”…

Francis denies the Co-Redemption of the Blessed Virgin Mary — but is it Catholic Doctrine?

“At the Cross her station keeping…”

Although he loves to feign a great devotion to the Most Holy Mother of God, in actual fact Jorge Bergoglio (“Pope” Francis) has as much hatred and contempt for her as he does for her Divine Son, our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Just last week, on Dec. 9, we published a blog post giving several concrete examples of how the apostate from Buenos Aires blasphemes the Blessed Virgin Mary.… READ MORE

Was Pope John XII “Deposed”?
A Refutation of Prof. Roberto de Mattei

The Italian historian Professor Roberto de Mattei enjoys immense popularity among conservative Novus Ordos and semi-traditionalists because he comes with the pedigree of a being an academic who has taught and written books on ecclesiastical history, and because he continually reassures them through his writings and lectures that their convenient “recognize-and-resist” (R&R) position is the correct alternative to submitting to Circus Bergoglio or rejecting Francis as a false pope.

The Catholic doctrine on the Papacy, however, admits of no such thing as recognizing a Pope as legitimate while refusing submission to him.… READ MORE
