Communism And Freemasonry Controlling The Vatican

Tonight's Anchor Team focused on Lepanto Institute's expose of some Vatican organizations that are directly and unabashedly promoting communism, witchcraft and baby-slaughter.  That expose was published two days ago and is linked here.  Please note that there is more commentary beneath the video.

Please watch the whole thing for there are mentioned websites with additional information.  In their discussion of communism and freemasonry, Hichborn and Maughan mentioned that Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels were greatly assisted by a British masonic lodge that took them under their wings, so to speak.

Also, please pay special attention to Hichborn's observations regarding so many of the "Catholic social justice" groups.  Many if not most of them are focused solely on temporal concerns without nary a thought towards eternal salvation.  It is the latter that is the Church's primary mission, for one day this earth will fade and their will only be heaven and hell.  A sole focus only on earthly concerns is a surefire way of careening straight towards hell.  That is one key reason why the Vatican's push for the covid cootie-jab is so nefarious, in addition to the fact that usage of these concoctions constitutes cooperation with the sin of baby-murder.

They have much to say about the socialistic bent of the United Nations, certainly as manifested through its presidents throughout the decades.  Recall that two years ago Pope Francis erroneously said that we have a duty to obey the United Nations.  I won't say that the pope has been duped by the communists in the UN.  No, he is in fact a fully-knowledgeable collaborator with them.  His shilling for the Sustainable Development goals and his constant hosting of Jeffrey Sachs and Ban-Ki Moon in preparation for Laudato Si certainly is proof of that.

Yesterday was the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.  This is a good time to commit - or recommit - to praying it daily, as she requested at Fatima.  While prayer is essential, it is not sufficient.  Please take the time to inform yourselves of the ills of our Church and world.  Plan to speak against the evils that you see, even if the sources of those evils wear miters.  Use your rights as US citizens to take a stand for decency; we've seen plenty of parents do precisely that at various school board meetings lately.  Emulate their examples.  The time is short.

Vatican Has Been Profiting From Medical Abortions

For over 25 years I have been in front of abortuaries with other good Catholics, praying and trying to dissuade women from destroying their own children.  We have found that more and more of these women are subjecting themselves to medical abortions versus surgical abortions.  That is, they are ingesting various chemical compounds in attempts to cause the deaths and expulsions of their children.  These compounds, though varied, are collectively called abortifacients.

Over these past decades we have found ourselves baffled by the lack of support that we have received from the official structures of the church.  Yes, individual priests have been very helpful as they too have come out to the mills.  But by and large, they are few and far between, and these priests often suffer at the hands of their bishops and fellow clergy on account of their witnesses to life.

For a long time, we've simply chalked up the bishops' tepid support to us as clerical cowardice, stemming from their fears of having governmental grants reduced and eliminated or from receiving bad media attention.  With all the scandals coming to light recently, I now fear the reasons for the bishops' lack of pro-life conviction is far more sinister than I thought 25 years ago.

Understanding that many of these clerics simply sought ordination for the express purpose of undermining Holy Mother Church, and knowing that many of these wolves in shepherds' clothing are corrupt perverts, I think it reasonable to believe that they themselves favor the slaughter of unborn children.  We've seen over the past year or so how many of them have acted positively to spiritually kill their flocks by depriving them of the Sacraments under the guise of "safety from the pandemic".

Comes now the news from Gloria.TV that the Vatican held investments in companies that are largely geared towards the production of abortifacients.  That is, they derive financial profit from each and every death wrought by these demonic concoctions.  We Catholics have spent many hours trying to dissuade women from taking these poisons.  Do we now know yet another reason why the hierarchy in many cases acts to undermine our efforts?

The gloria link informs us that this scandal was discovered by Libero Milone in 2016 during an audit of the Vatican's books.  He reported it to senior Vatican officials and only then were the shares sold.  However, Milone was subsequently fired.  Aren't we surprised?  For his sake I hope he is in hiding.  His firing causes me to think that the Vatican plans to resume what is most likely a lucrative investment.

If nothing else, we have yet another reason (among many) to curtail any donations to the weekly collection basket, or online donation arrangement.  Approximately 12% of your donations will be funneled to your diocese, and they in turn will pay over a portion of that to the Vatican, where it too can be used to capitalize baby slaughter, along with the contraception and socialism of which we are already aware.

Vatican Arm-Twisting Session For The Covid Vaccines To Occur In May

An international conference will occur between May 6-8, entitled "Exploring The Mind, Body And Soul: Unite To Prevent And Unite To Cure".  Frankly, it has a New Age ring to it.  These days, that is what we can expect from the Vatican, for that is who is sponsoring this gab-fest.  Take a look at the description of the thing in that "about the conference" section.  How many times do you see the words, "God", "Jesus", "faith", "eternal salvation".  Zero-zip-nada!  Ladies and gentlemen, the mission of the Church is to save souls from hell and help them towards heaven.  Similarly, that is the mission of the various Vatican offices.  Any other temporal concerns, good though they may be, are ancillary to eternal salvation and the worship of the One True God.

The verbosity of the mission statement is quite obvious, pompous verbal diarrhea notwithstanding.  This bunch is seeking ways to cajole people into accepting the so-called corona viruses and any other medical intrusions into our bodies, preparing us for the Great Reset.  Along with that, we see thinly-disguised plugs for an "equitable health system for all", that is, socialized medicine  

The choice of speakers bears this out:

• Dr. Falsey Fauci, the covid guru himself
• Chelsea Clinton, who once lamented that Planned Parenthood's "services" weren't available to her grandmother (let that sink in a moment)
• Jane Goodall, studied chimpanzees, founding board member of Nonhuman Rights Project , advocate of "population control" 
• Kerry Kennedy, President of Robert F Kennedy Human Rights.  Why was her brother, Bob Kennedy Jr,  not invited?  He has been outspoken against the Covid vaccines.  Maybe I just answered my own question.
• Joe Perry, lead guitarist for Aerosmith.  Pray tell, just what are his qualifications to speak on medical matters?
• Cindy Crawford, model.  What are her medical qualifications?
• Deepak Chopra - promoter of New Age practices.  The wise Catholic will understand that many of these practices are gateways to the occult and to demonic influences
• Stephane Bancel, CEO of Moderna, one of the main producers-distributers of the morally-tainted covid vaccines.  Moderna is listed as a sponsor of this event.
• Albert Bourla, CEO Pfizer, another producer-distributer of an abortion-tainted covid vaccine

Over the years, an unfortunate pattern has evolved.  When the attendees and speakers of these gabfests are progressives who spew forth crap that is diametrically opposed to Tradition, the nonsense produced often finds its way into "apostolic exhortations" or other official-sounding prattlings.  The objective of that is to manipulate unsuspecting Catholics into believing that these are magisterial teachings binding on a Catholic conscience, and must be obeyed.   We've seen how all those environmentally-oriented sessions featuring Jeffrey Sachs resulted in Laudato Si.  The Synods on the Family resulted in Amoris Laetitia.  Wanna bet that a soon-to-be encyclical will be named Vaccinius Obligatorium (or some such thing)?

We will keep our eyes on this.  Suffice it to say for now that any bloviations these people make about vaccines are not magisterial teaching.

Run! Run! It's The Attack Of The Giant Mutant Lego Creatures!

Yes, this hideous monstrosity is what the Vatican is using for a Nativity set this Christmas.  It makes a horrible, mocking caricature of Our Lord's birth.  See here for an analysis of the occultic symbolisms in the various creatures displayed in this scene.

The only positive thing I can say about it is that at least it doesn't smack of homosexual pornography, as did the artistic slop from 2017.

The Scandal Of Katy Perry At The Vatican

Why I Trust The White House More Than The Vatican

Five years ago, the Messiah Most Miserable was polluting the White House while Pope Benedict XVI was the pontiff.  If anyone had told me then that there would come a time when I'd trust the White House more than the Vatican, I would have thought that they had taken leave of their senses.  Well, lo and behold, that day is upon us.

Michael Matt of the Remnant posted an article in which he remarks how some in the Trump Cabinet are engaging in Bible studies and being none too demure about it.  Meanwhile the US Catholic establishment gives mere token lip service to serious moral concerns while they eagerly pursue their socialistic agenda at the bidding of their progressive puppet-masters.

These puppet-masters include Vatican officials, who themselves are engaged in the same pursuits.  From LifeSiteNews we read that there will be another progressive gab-fest at the Vatican this coming November, called "Health of People, Health of Planet and Our Responsibility: Climate Change, Air Pollution and Health".  Isn't that a mouthful?

If it sounds familiar, it should.  This sort of schmooze session has occurred multiple times at the Vatican, particularly as Laudato Si was being formulated.  The LifeSiteNews piece gives a detailed description on the "usual gang of suspects" who will be giving presentations, etc.  I've written about many of these before; you need only to put their names in the search box at the top left.  All of them openly advocate for "population control" (including contraception, sterilization, abortion), one-world government (socialistic of course), climate-change junk science.

Remember when the pope criticized the president for being "not Christian"?  Perhaps it was an attempt to minimize Trump's attention to the Christian heritage of this country since his own leftist agenda showed reckless disregard for the Deposit of Faith.

Pray your Rosaries and stay informed.

Who's Not Speaking For Baby #CharlieGard ?

Earlier today we heard that a Vatican-owned hospital (Bambino Gesu) offered to care for Baby Charlie Gard and that President Trump also offered assistance to him.  We pray that the hard hearts in England's National Health Service will turn from their murderous intents and at least let this baby go from their clutches.

From whom have we not heard yet?  Quite a few.

• This so-called "Convocation of Catholic Leaders" in Orlando has not uttered one peep although they are ostensibly interested in the "challenges" facing the Church today.  If a hardened murderer was soon to be executed, you could bet your bottom dollar that the wailing and gnashing of teeth from that hotel could be heard the world over.  But when an innocent infant is being murdered by socialized medicine (one of their darling causes), they utter not one peep.
• Speaking of "executions", death-penalty opponent Sr. Helen Prejean is another progressive who has been abysmally silent regarding a truly unjust execution.  I've searched both her Facebook and Twitter pages and cannot find not even the mention of #CharlieGard 's name.
• Similarly the "Catholic Mobilizing Network To End the Use of the Death Penalty" (isn't that a mouthful?) also has nothing to say about this tiny, innocent victim of execution imposed by socialists.

We will continue to pray that #CharlieGard 's life will be spared.  In the meantime, the entities listed in the bulleted points have forfeited all moral credibility.  Truth be told, they accomplished that quite some time ago, but now such lack of credibility is one again made manifest.

George Soros: Puppet Master For Hillary And The Vatican?

When I wrote my post this past Sunday (two days ago) about the anti-life motives of the climate-change crowd, I asked the question "how much Soros money is in this Catholic climate movement thing".  Some news today gives the answer to that question: billions of dollars.

Elizabeth Yore, an attorney affiliated with the Heartland Institute, wrote an article that was occasioned by some proceeds of the wikileaks data dump.  In the information was also details of plans to leverage Pope Francis' influence to sway the presidential election to Hillary Clinton.  Through his Open Society Institute, Soros planned to grant $650 billion to PICO and Faith in Public Life to engage the bishops regarding "income inequality": that is, apologetics for socialism.  Yore's article appears in the Remnant and on LifeSiteNews we see more details.

Yore mentioned that in 2015 both Vatican officials (Cardinal Maradiaga key among them) and Soros personnel collaborated on an Apostolic Exhortation on Climate Change and backing for the Paris Climate Treaty.  I wrote a bit about that at the time, noting the progressives that were wined and dined at the Vatican; see this anthology of posts.  In that first post I wrote, "I would like to think that the Vatican is just being naive and easily led when it comes to climate change.  However, I now believe there are powerful forces within the Vatican - the same ones controlling the USCCB - that are pulling puppet strings and doing their utmost to promote progressive agendas upon the whole world."  Now we know, and it makes perfect sense.  In USANews, we find remarks that Soros made about himself, remarks that seem to be quite candid to say the least.  He apparently holds himself to be some sort of "god" who controls Hillary and most likely the Vatican.  Obviously he's got the "god" part wrong, but he does wield massive influence over the leftwing in this country and in the Vatican.

The realization of Soros' influence at the Vatican seems to put many things in a new light:

• The bizarre resignation of Pope Benedict XVI
• The personnel shake-ups at the Vatican: Burke out, the formation of this "gang of nine", with Soros ally Maradiaga at the helm
• The none-too-disguised manipulation of the two family sin-nods

Of course they may all just be coincidences.  But there's so many of them - like so many dots out there just begging to be connected.

We must pray for our Church, and we must understand just what is happening to her in order to do so.

Vatican Swallows The Spiritual And Intellectual Poisoned Koolaid Called Environmentalism

LifesiteNews did an expose of the Vatican's embrace of environmentalism this past Wednesday called "Why Is The Vatican Stumbling Into Climate Controversy?"  He points out the Vatican luminaries (including Cardinal Maradiaga, the leader of the "gang of 8").  He also points out a statement by the Vatican that "the scientific consensus is rather consistent..."  No it isn't.  There is a wide divergence of conclusions in the scientific community (see here and here) - the sort that the progressive media tries to keep silent.

The most important Jalsevak pointed out is that this matter of "climate change" is way beyond the bishops' realm of competence.  They have no knowledge by which to make scientific conclusions, let alone decide and declare which of widely varying theories is correct.

I would like to think that the Vatican is just being naive and easily led when it comes to climate change.  However, I now believe there are powerful forces within the Vatican - the same ones controlling the USCCB - that are pulling puppet strings and doing their utmost to promote progressive agendas upon the whole world.  Last week Cardinal Dolan was simply taking marching orders from those holding his puppet strings; the behaviors cited in Jalsevak's reports are at the behest of the same masterminds.

Four years ago I posted commentary on an expose of environmentalism done by Michael Voris.  Here is the link to my commentary; embedded in that post is the video that he produced and another link to supporting documentation.  Note the three principles to environmentalism: population control, world governance, earth worship.   Here I believe we see a rather stark example of earth worship.  If you clicked on the "Dolan" link in the preceding paragraph and were able to endure RFK Jr.'s diatribe in the video, you noticed his none-too-subtle hints at socialism.

In this video from Sunday's parade/charade (ht Reason Magazine) you'll notice even less subtle calls for socialism.  Warning!  As the video proceeds, your eardrums will be assaulted by hideous music performed (using words "performed" and "music" loosely) by aging hippies.  You might want to offer up any earaches as penances.

Environmentalism is just another ploy to replace western civilization with atheism and socialism.  Now they are leading the Vatican by the nose.  This is yet another reason why we cannot blindly follow and obey every statement issued by the Vatican - especially when they violate the Magisterium and step outside their realms of competence.  Now the Right Reason video..

Pope Francis, The Boy In His Chair, And Resultant Silly Blather

Last weekend Pope Francis was giving a talk in Vatican City when a little boy climbed onto the stage and hugged the Holy Father's legs.  The Holy Father sat him in his chair and continued his talk.

And all the teeny-boppers went bananas! Google the words "Pope Francis boy chair" and you'll see no less than three pages of links, all waxing giggly over this incident.  Not one of these, to my recollection, had the text of the address that the Holy Father gave at the time.  It was on Facebook too; I link to this very telling page, calling your attention to the comments.

Only two of us were so mundane and boring as to ask where the boy's parents were during this incident.  I can tell you if my little boy had scampered away from me at that instant, I would have immediately and rather unceremoniously removed him from the stage.  There would then have followed some "teaching moments" about proper respect and, more importantly, never leaving the side of your parents in a crowd situation.  But I suppose I hoped for too much - not from the boy but from what I'd hope would be the "responsible" adult supposedly watching over the boy.

But there's an even more troubling mindset to be found within the comments.  One of the comments sums it up with "FINALLY a people's pope."  (Yes, the caps are in the original comment.)  Pardon my french, but what the hell does that mean????  Does this individual understand the supreme insult she lobbed in the direction of the still-living Pope Benedict XVI or towards Blessed Pope John Paul II?  Regrettably I suspect she did, as did some of the others.

You can see my own reply, right above that.  I wonder out loud what qualifies Pope Francis, in the eyes of these folks, to be a "people's pope".  I truly believe those qualities are, at best, silly and superficial.  I say that not in criticism of Pope Francis at all, but of those who are spouting such brainless pronouncements about him.  I truly believe Pope Francis would be mortified to hear himself being lauded at the obvious expense of Pope Benedict XVI.  I suspect he'd be more interested in being "God's pope" first.
