What was Francis doing on the USA’s election day?


...meeting with pro-abortion, pro-divorce, and George Soros lackey — Emma Bonino to further plot the Islamization of Europe!




Emma with her patron György Schwartz (aka George Soros) in 2015


George Soros, “When I first met Emma Bonino, she wanted me to join the Transnational Radical Party. I refused to join thinking it was too utopian. But two years ago I joined the TRP. It goes to show she is a visionary thinker who is often ahead of her time.”

more friends of Francis

Francis meeting with Guillermo Moreno and Amelia Marta Cascales.  Guillermo Moreno is divorced and has been in a long-term cohabitation with Amelia Marta Cascales.  From 2005 to 2013 Moreno was the Secretary of Domestic Trade for Argentina and was in charge of the economic policies of the country.  He resigned from that office in 2013 after being tried in the Argentinian courts for dereliction of duty and abuse of authority. The result of Guillermo's policies were the ruin of the Argentinian economy and the fattening of his wallet as well as the bottom lines of the international bankers. He is currently the economic attaché at the Argentinian embassy in Rome.  Cascales is on the board of several Kirchner companies and has assisted in making pro-Kirchner  propaganda movies for television.  This was the last private audience Moreno and Cascales was to have with Francis as economic attaché.  The reason for this is Moreno's political party lost the elections and someone else is soon to be appointed to his office.  

Francis greets Moreno and Cascales at the 50th Anniversary of the Declaration 
of Nostra Aetate.  Earlier that day at the general audience in St. Peter's Square, 
the Argentinians in attendance voraciously booed Moreno and Cascales.

Boff interviewed on the telephone by BBC Mundo


Leonardo Boff is an oft in trouble priest due to his support for Liberation Theology, communist regimes, and his revolutionary writings.  Boff finally left the Franciscan order in 1992 and is now the Professor Emeritus of Ethics, Philosophy of Religion, and Ecology at Rio de Janeiro State University.  The two questions and answers below are excerpted from the BBC Mundo interview, Leonardo Boff, teólogo de la liberación, sobre el Papa y el aborto: "Una vez abierta la puerta, ya no se cierra" by Gerardo Lissardy.



Do you think this (Francis' announcement of allowing priests to forgive the sin of abortion without the permission of their bishop during reconciliation) anticipates a doctrinal change within the Church?
I think the Pope will not discuss the doctrines. He always says that reality is above doctrines. If the reality is that today there are many divorces, the concept of family is changing more and more, and for him the important thing is that there is love. Where there is love, whether in the first or second marriage, there is something of God.


The Pope referred to your (Boff's) writings to prepare the encyclical (Laudato si') that was launched this year on ecology?
It is not good to talk about this. But three times I was asked to send materials by the Argentine ambassador to the Holy See. With great joy I have found (in the encyclical) that many things were used. But the it is the Pope's encyclical, not mine. What's new in the encyclical is that it goes beyond the vision of ecology as a environmentalism. It is not a green encyclical, it is a comprehensive encyclical of ecological, political, economic, spiritual, and not only of the relationship with nature. The Pope is now part of the new paradigm. 


Is Jorge Mario Bergoglio out of his mind?  Or is he evil?  Francis used Boff's writings as a foundation for his envirocyclical, Laudatio si', and believes reality is above the doctrines of the Church!  Guess this is what is meant by taking the church to the peripheries...the  peripheries of insanity!  May God help us!

Francis must be talking about his sister

...Maria Elena Bergoglio





When did the Church ever say divorced people were excommunicated?



for some clarity:

"Let special care be taken that the people be well instructed in the precepts of Christian wisdom, so that they may always remember that marriage was not instituted by the will of man, but, from the very beginning, by the authority and command of God; that it does not admit of plurality of wives or husbands; that Christ, the Author of the New Covenant, raised it from a rite of nature to be a sacrament, and gave to His Church legislative and judicial power with regard to the bond of union. On this point the very greatest care must be taken to instruct them, lest their minds should be led into error by the unsound conclusions of adversaries who desire that the Church should be deprived of that power."
His Holiness Pope Leo XIII
On Christian Marriage
February 10, 1880





Q. 1023. Can the bond of Christian marriage be dissolved by any human power?
A. The bond of Christian marriage cannot be dissolved by any human power.

Q. 1024. Does not a divorce granted by courts of justice break the bond of marriage?
A. Divorce granted by courts of justice or by any human power does not break the bond of marriage, and one who makes use of such a divorce to marry again while the former husband or wife lives commits a sacrilege and lives in the sin of adultery. A civil divorce may give a sufficient reason for the persons to live apart and it may determine their rights with regard to support, the control of the children and other temporal things, but it has no effect whatever upon the bond and spiritual nature of the Sacrament.

Q. 1025. Does not the Church sometimes allow husband and wife to separate and live apart?
A. The Church sometimes, for very good reasons, does allow husband and wife to separate and live apart; but that is not dissolving the bond of marriage, or divorce as it is called, for though separated they are still husband and wife, and neither can marry again till the other dies.

Q. 1026. Has not the Church sometimes allowed Catholics once married to separate and marry again?
A. The Church has never allowed Catholics once really married to separate and marry again, but it has sometimes declared persons apparently married free to marry again, because their first marriage was null; that is, no marriage on account of some impediment not discovered till after the ceremony.

Q. 1027. What evils follow divorce so commonly claimed by those outside the true Church and granted by civil authority?
A. The evils that follow divorce so commonly claimed by those outside the true Church and granted by civil authority are very many; but chiefly:
  1. A disregard for the sacred character of the Sacrament and for the spiritual welfare of the children;
  2. The loss of the true idea of home and family followed by bad morals and sinful living.

Q. 1042. Why should Catholics avoid mixed marriages?
A. Catholics should avoid mixed marriages:
  1. Because they are displeasing to the Church and cannot bring with them the full measure of God's grace and blessing;
  2. Because the children should have the good example of both parents in the practice of their religion;
  3. Because such marriages give rise to frequent disputes on religious questions between husband and wife and between their relatives;
  4. Because the one not a Catholic, disregarding the sacred character of the Sacrament, may claim a divorce and marry again, leaving the Catholic married and abandoned.

Everything you need to know about the Synod

Don't expect anything more than suggestions from this year's Synod.  The official document on the family will not be written until after the 2015 Synod.

from Vatican News with annoying music



Excerpt from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' website:

Other Questions

What is the relationship between the III Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops and the XIV Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops?
The Instrumentum Laboris for the III Extraordinary General Assembly notes that the work of the Synod of Bishops "is to take place in two stages, forming a single organic unity." The Extraordinary General Assembly could be understood in a certain sense as a preparatory step for the Ordinary General Assembly. At the Extraordinary General Assembly, the bishops will define the current state of the family and challenges that face it; at the Ordinary General Assembly, the bishops will formulate pastoral guidelines to respond to those challenges.
Will there be a document issued after the two Synods of Bishops?
After an Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops, it is common for the Holy Father to issue a substantive document, called a post-synodal apostolic exhortation, which takes up the themes of the Synod and deepens them further. It is also expected that after the Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops, one or more documents will be issued in preparation for the Ordinary General Assembly.


Fall synod to review state of family;
2015 synod to draw up proposals

By Cindy Wooden

Representatives of the world's Catholic bishops, meeting together in a synod, are not expected to make any formal proposals about the church's pastoral care of families until after a second, larger gathering in 2015.

The extraordinary Synod of Bishops on the family will meet at the Vatican Oct. 5-19, bringing together the presidents of national bishops' conferences, the heads of Eastern Catholic churches and Vatican officials. The world Synod of Bishops, which will include more bishops -- many elected by their peers -- will meet at the Vatican Oct. 4-25, 2015.


Introducing the working document for the first synod assembly -- formally an "extraordinary" synod -- Cardinal Lorenzo Baldisseri, general secretary of the Synod of Bishops, said participants "will thoroughly examine and analyze the information, testimonies and recommendations received" from around the world in response to a questionnaire sent out in November.

The responses to the questionnaire, submitted by about 90 percent of the world's bishops' conferences and about 800 Catholic organizations or individuals, formed the basis for the working document for the extraordinary assembly.

The results of the extraordinary assembly will form the basis for the working document for the 2015 meeting, he said.

The general assembly in 2015, "representing a great part of the episcopate and continuing the work of the previous synod, will reflect further on the points discussed so as to formulate appropriate pastoral guidelines," the cardinal said.

Only the suggestions of the 2015 synod will be forwarded to the pope as formal proposals for church action, he said.

The theme of the extraordinary synod is: "The pastoral challenges of the family in the context of evangelization." Cardinal Baldisseri said there would be about 190 voting members, plus "fraternal delegates" from other Christian churches as well as observers and experts appointed by Pope Francis.

At a news conference June 26, Cardinal Baldisseri announced that the theme of the 2015 synod would be: "Jesus Christ reveals the mystery and vocation of the family." That gathering, he said, was expected to include about 250 voting members.

In a letter to families in February, Pope Francis explained that the "extraordinary synodal assembly will be followed a year later by the ordinary assembly, which will also have the family as its theme."

The pope also noted that the World Meeting of Families would take place in Philadelphia in September 2015; "may we all, then, pray together so that through these events the church will undertake a true journey of discernment and adopt the necessary pastoral means to help families face their present challenges with the light and strength that comes from the Gospel."

Cardinal Baldisseri announced that Catholics around the world will be asked to observe a day of prayer for the synod and its deliberations Sept. 28.

Italian Archbishop Bruno Forte of Chieti-Vasto, chosen by Pope Francis to be the special secretary of the extraordinary synod, told reporters June 26, "the doctrine of the church is not up for discussion," but the synod members will be called upon to find ways to improve the "pastoral application" of church teachings, ways to explain it and to help Catholics live it.

Francis does it again!


Who does Francis think he is, Sun Myung MoonThis past Sunday, Francis married twenty couples in one giant wedding ceremony at St. Peter's Basilica.  What made it different was the touch Francis put on it.  See dear reader, Francis had his people at the Vatican seek out those on the fringes of society.  You know those living publicly in open sin!  Next, he didn't even enforce the dress code which a tourist must follow when visiting St. Peter's!  There were many sleeveless wedding gowns and more than a few which were low cut to show off their owner's cleavage.  Have no fear though, Michael Voris of the Vortex will either ignore this or tell his listeners, it was all part of a conspiracy cooked up by the evil bishops.  We fear this was a trial balloon to test the reaction of Catholics in order to gauge how far they should push the line at of the upcoming Synod on the Family.  Time we tell if we are correct in our assessment.  Francis must be happy because he got this revolutionary change in his church in the headlines of the news:
