I can’t get no…

Louie,

Francis BlessingAs my friend Fr. José Miguel Marqués Campo said of Pope Francis and his visit to the United States, he’s certainly outdoing himself!

I must admit that I’ve been a little detached from the coverage as I’ve been busy preparing for this weekend’s Catholic Identity Conference, but I’ve seen enough to concur with his opinion.

Here are just a few of the “highlights” that caught my eye:

Yesterday afternoon, Pope Francis gave a… umm…. I’m not entirely sure what to call it, but a quasi-blessing sorta thing to those gathered outside of the Capitol building.

With John Boehner by his side (presumably having a stroke), the “People’s Pope” (unless you happen to be a “traditionalist” – aka Catholic) looked out upon those who were present asking them to pray for him, adding:

“If there any among you who do not believe, or cannot pray, I ask you to send good wishes my way.”

Why someone would be “unable” to pray is beyond me, but at least he didn’t ask them to send out positive energy from the Universal Intelligence.

In any case, missing once again was the sign of the Cross or any mention of the Blessed Trinity, but this is nothing new for Francis. Every time I see him among the masses, he’s typically waving in the manner of a celebrity as opposed to imparting an actual blessing in the manner of a pope.

It seems that very often when the media reports “Pope Francis blessing” this person or that, the video footage shows him doing nothing of the sort; rather, what I usually see is a gathering of the faithful being given stones instead of bread. (For example, HERE.)

In any case, you can watch the papal performance from the Capitol balcony for yourself in the video below.

Of course, the sign of the Cross wasn’t the only thing missing from Francis’ “blessing” at the Capitol, so too was the name of Jesus Christ, which was also conspicuously absent from the speech that he delivered to Congress earlier in the day.

Once again, this is just more of the same from Pope Francis. (For example HERE.)

And then there was the Mass that Pope Francis celebrated on Wednesday, where once again… Oh well, just take a look:

OK folks… I know this topic has been broached by others before, but what the hell is going on with this pope who can’t seem to bend his knee before the Most Holy Eucharist at Mass?

Somehow he can manage to kneel when the humblecam is rolling, and yet even with his Master of Ceremonies standing by his side at the altar ready to assist, he can’t manage to genuflect at Holy Mass?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a nod to the heretics who don’t believe in the Real Presence of Christ. I suspect, however, that the company lie is that he’s physically unable.

Of course, a lie such as this concerning the pope’s physical incapacities isn’t limited to the current pontificate, as Benedict the Abdicator aptly demonstrated.

In any event, if one is interested in looking for evidence that this pope, objectively speaking, holds the Catholic faith, I wish them luck in finding it. In fact, I might suggest that their search begin with a prayer to St. Anthony, because let’s be honest – all appearances are that it’s woefully lost.

As for evidence that Pope Francis – again, objectively speaking – is a modernist?

This is the topic of the presentation that I’ll be delivering at the Catholic Identity Conference tomorrow, and let me just say that my greatest challenge in preparing it is figuring out how to stay within the one hour I’ve been allotted.

I hope to see you there.

  1. The comment on Boehner (presumably having a stroke) was hilarious. These “Catholic” politicians fawning over Mr Bergoglio are enough to make a person sick to their stomach.

  2. The blasphemies and sacrileges against our Lord, Jesus Christ continue. The unholy trinity of Modernism/Masonry, Communism and Socialism, leaders were on display these last few days.

  3. “I can’t get no…….no no no!”
    –
    Bless my iPhone ( I don’t have one), bless my faith in vibrations, (earthquakes mainly) and the god of surprises bless the nation of flipping the bird to God. “Hey, hey hey, that’s what jorge say.”
    –
    Anyone remember Princess Diana? The self styled destroyer of the British monarchy. Well, Tony Blair’s publicist coined her the ‘people’s princess’. How fab folks now to have a ‘peoples pope’.

  5. “With John Boehner by his side (presumably having a stroke)….”
    ——-
    That comment was hysterically funny!!!! Watching Boehner “cry” while still having time to give the (Napoleon-hand-in-front-vest) Freemasonic sign TWICE while reaching for his handkerchief (which he knew was in his back pocket— isn’t it always there?) would not have been as enjoyable without your commentary, Mr. Verrecchio.

    May God reward you in this life and the next for what you are doing here on this blog and this weekend at the Catholic Identity Conference……..
    …….. and for all that you do to advance the Social Reign of Jesus Christ Our King.

  7. My husband is going to be at that conference. I would have killed to go with, but couldn’t make it happen. Anyway, speak well, Louie. I told my hubby he better at least get a snap of you and him for me. 🙂 God bless!

  9. “Through prayer and not through attacks! I Myself will be his judge, NO ONE BUT I!…..Our Lord’s revelations to Mutter Vogel.

    ….from the Holy Hour, by Fr. Mateo…..
    CONSIDERATION: O prodigy of humility! the God of heaven, the Sovereign Lord of earth has made Himself the slave of men; He Who gives life annihilates Himself; He Who has broken our chains binds Himself, and He remains, by an incomprehensible love, always a prisoner ever since the first Holy Thursday!…..He descends from the hill of Sion and plunges into the solitude of Gethsemane….There, falling on His knees, He prays….His agony commences….At this moment a weight of sorrow presses upon His Heart and crushes It. In the midst of all this anguish, He cries out sobbing, “O Father, strike Me, but save men…..pardon them for I love them.”…..
    + His anguish increases. He sees passing before His Eyes His executioners, blasphemers, insulters of His Cross, the deniers of His Gospel and of His love….and He repeats: “I Love them, O My Father, pardon them!”…..
    + He sees passing in review the apostates, the renegades, who cast at His Feet the things they adore;…..then the multitude of lukewarm souls – men who fear to confess Christ, those who are ashamed of their King and Savior, and He cries out with grief: “I love them, O My Father……pardon them!”
    + Then are presented to His Mind the army of wicked men, without conscience;…..an innumerable crowd of revilers who profane their souls in the shameful misuse of their passions…….then the persecutors of the Church, those who have enriched themselves by lying,….the seducers of the people, the hypocrites, the proud:….all these pass by, and the Divine One in agony repeats: “I love them, O My Father, I beseech pardon for them!”…..
    + Then come the mediocre and unfaithful priests, worldly parents, responsible for the loss of their children’s souls,…..families with all their sins,….societies with all their orgies,…..peoples and rulers with their insulting rebellions. Before His Eyes pass by all those who insult the Pontiff, His Vicar,……and Jesus immersed in this profound sea of filth, dishonor and agony, His voice quivering with grief utters again; “Yes, O My Father, I love them, I love them. Pardon all these guilty ones!”
    + And finally, like thousands of arrows, sacrilegiously striking His Face and transpiercing His Heart, the names of the damned have come, that innumerable legion of reprobates, who, marked with His Blood and redeemed by His death, nevertheless choose for themselves eternal death and malediction!……O! then this Divine Heart breaks under the oppression of an infinite sorrow, His veins burst open with violent grief. Jesus staggers….an instant after, His Features livid, His Hair disheveled, His whole Body trembling and covered with blood, He falls on His Face to the ground and utters a cry: “FATHER, I have come into this world to accomplish Thy Will!…..If it be possible let this chalice pass from Me, but not My Will but Thine be done!”……
    + Let us keep silence and let the beatings of this adorable Heart speak to us of Its secret sorrows, Its requests for love, and Its desires to triumph over all!

    +Sacred Heart of Jesus Thy Kingdom come!
    +Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us!
    +Saint Joseph, pray for us!

    Let us thank God, that He founded the Roman Catholic Apostolic Church. Let us pray for the supreme head of the Church, the Pope at Rome. That he may be given the grace to follow St. Peter in zeal for religion and the salvation of souls. Amen.

  10. Louie, God bless you and all other Catholic Crusaders at the Conference this weekend. Many of us who visit your blog would love to be there, I’m sure. However, unavoidable circumstances very often prevent us from doing what we truly want. Just a thought, it was announced that Bergoglio made an unexpected visit to the Sisters of Charity who have commenced a law suit re Obamacare (a conflict in terms, to be sure!) Let’s see if that suit mysteriously disappears. Maybe, Louie could keep an eye on that.

  11. P.S. A question for anyone who can enlighten me: “Who is the prelate almost always standing next to Bergoglio who behaves like his shadow?” If I’m not mistaken, I seem to remember this same person next to Benedict and possibly JP2. Does anyone know?
    Thank you.

  13. my2cents,
    guy who was always by BXVI, etc. & still around w/now undyed hair is master of ceremonies, Guido Marini.

  14. Seriously, here in new york city we are “up to here” with the word “encounter” & if we never hear it again it will be too soon, thanks to apostate Bergoglio

  15. rich, you’re not kidding. Worse, Jorge fawning all over those such as new york state baby killer Governor Cuomo’s live in girlfriend by blessing her, she with veiled head!! You cannot make this stuff up.

  16. “Ave Maria, gee it’s good to see ya….”

    Excellent, Louie, “I can’t get no, genuflection” God help us!!!

    THE
    KNEELERS

    We are St. Joan,
    Philomena, Campion
    The Faith in its whole
    Is what we do champion.

    We are St. Margaret,
    Pearl of York
    Where the bowels of the Faith
    They tried to torque.

    We are Sir More,
    That’s Thomas the Saint
    Whose reputation
    They could not taint.

    We are vocations
    Large families and kneeling
    Adoring His presence
    It’s not just a feeling.

    We are descendents
    Of Tradition and beggin’
    To stop all the men
    Who are turning us pagan!

    We are the poor,
    Uneducated ones
    But in faith well-informed
    The heretic shuns.

    And when Synod says,
    “God’s Word, just ignore.”
    Since we are true Catholics
    We kneel and ADORE!!

  17. Thank you, de Maria
    He is the one in Louie’s second video on the right side of Bergoglio and who is waiting for Bergoglio after he makes a public display of his confession for the camera—definitely a “kodak moment”. I wonder what Guido’s real job is. Perhaps he is a puppeteer.
    Thank you again.

  19. “A reminder of how a papal visit might have played out a hundred or more years ago:
    –
    “[S]ince We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty, Who will have all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the Truth, … We direct Our first thoughts to those most unfortunate of all nations who have never received the light of the Gospel, or who, after having possessed it, have lost it through neglect or the vicissitudes of time: Hence do they ignore God, and live in the depths of error. Now, as all salvation comes from Jesus Christ–for there is no other Name under Heaven given to men whereby we must be saved–Our ardent desire is that the most Holy Name of Jesus should rapidly pervade and fill every land.
    –
    “And here, indeed, is a duty which the Church, faithful to the Divine Mission entrusted to her, has never neglected. What has been the object of her labors for more than nineteen centuries? Is there any other work she has undertaken with greater zeal and constancy than that of bringing the nations of the earth to the Truth and Principles of Christianity?”
    –
    Pope Leo XIII, Praeclara Gratulationis Publicae (1894)”

  20. Bergoglio says: “If there [are] any among you who do not believe, or cannot pray, I ask you to send good wishes my way.”

    Why does Bergoglio think he is more capable of receiving good wishes than God is prayers?

  22. It’s absolutely odd how this man fails to genuflect after the consecration. Since the beginning of his tenure (fka “reign”) he has done this and folks (even trads) have always brushed it off. Yet, I think this is the interpretive key to his papacy. The man his unable to bend his knee before the Lord. Period. He’ll bend the knee before a Muslim girl, but not the creator of the Universe. Isn’t this the very definition of the Modern religion? It’s such a grotesque tell – there for all to see – but he knows he can get away with it. Demonic. (Yes, I know in some rites there is no genuflection at the consecration. But this man is of the Roman rite, where kneeling is not only normative but exquisitely expressive of worship of God. That he fails to kneel appropriately is an offense to both the faithful and God.). Let him do a million scandalous things with canon law and pastoral practice, the most scandalous thing he could ever do he does every time he says mass: rebuke the Lord. In the end our Lord will mete out His justice. Till then I pray for this man’s conversion – and mine, Lord help me.

  23. Thank you, dear Longkirts! Kneeling is an essential part of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Can one imagine Francis attempting to offer the Holy Sacrifice as offered in the unadulterated Holy Mass of all Ages?a

  24. Some background on this:
    –
    http://www.newliturgicalmovement.org/2010/02/latin-gesture-of-benediction-history-in.html#.VgcOUrQwe6E
    –
    When the Pope gives the “thumbs up” sign what he is doing is NOT imparting a blessing on those in close proximity to him. “Thumbs up” is a sign of personal approval (the Pope is signaling HIS OWN personal approval). If one thinks about it, it is really a denial and an insult. If the Pope is a priest and Our Lord’s Vicar on Earth he can impart God’s blessing on those in close proximity to him. But he chooses not to! Rather than imparting God’s blessing, he signals his own personal approval. Who does this guy think he is that we want his personal approval, and not God’s blessing?
    Really! Then factor in that he often asks for blessings from the crowd, rather than blessing the crowd. He seems terribly narcissistic; he is so self-concerned he couldn’t be bothered to impart Our Lord’s blessing on Our Lord’s flock.

  25. More to consider. The thumb’s up sign with the wide-eyed open smile seems to me to intentionally call to mind a blasphemous representation of Our Lord – so called “Buddy Christ”:
    –
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddy_Christ
    –
    Is the Pope using the “thumb’s up” sign to reference this blasphemous depiction of Our Lord and thus to mock Our Lord? Don’t deny this out of hand – this is the same man that sponsored a “tango mass” featuring a tango performed in the sanctuary, and places profane objects on holy altars.

  26. One last item. Look at this painting of the Pope:
    –
    http://www.patheos.com/blogs/thecrescat/2015/08/this-isnt-going-to-help-against-those-pope-worshiping-rumors.html
    –
    The people in the painting seem to be worshipping him. And what is with one of Our Lotd’s hands (on the pectoral crucifix) tucked into the Pope’s cassock? And why are their three doves and a parrot(!) in the painting? Is this meant to imply that these are merely natural birds and NOT the Holy Spirit? The general feeling I get from this painting is the Pope has forgotten exactly Whose Church it is, and is the habit of “forgetting” about Our Lord.

  27. Wonder if Bawl Baby’s having a melt down because frannie & uncle ted just promised him a papal knighthood for screwing the U.S. voter and the babies in the womb. Last time Bawl Baby met w/mccarrick on immigration a few days later announced he bought a $800k condo in florida.

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2014/02/06/cardinal-mccarrick-meets-with-boehner-on-immigration/

    News that Boehner bought the condo was first reported by the conservative Breitbart News.
