The tagline above Francis’ picture reads, “Collapse of the faithful, scandals, ethics, gay, immigrants and ISIS-Islam How many errors. Now the purges. The popularity of Francis of collapses”.  The headline is, “Il Papocchio”, which is a play on words in Italian.  In 1980 a blasphemous film was released with the title ‘Il pap'occhio’ (literally - in the pope’s eye), this headline is an allusion to the film and the fact that even though Francis is popular with the mainstream medias he isn’t very popular among Italians.  The word ‘papocchio’ also translates into English as ‘mess’ being a regional colloquialism of the verb ‘impapocchiare’.  This is fitting as Francis has repeatedly told the youth to “make a mess” with their lives especially in their home dioceses.  After all, the chemist needs chaos in the Novus Ordo church so that he can reprocess it.  In the final stages of this alchemical transformation, chaos will be introduced several times, further refining the Novus Ordo into the Noahide church until the transformation is complete.  In this process, Francis is repeating the same behaviors he exhibited in Buenos Aires, Argentina where he alienated his flock and fellow countrymen with his reign of mistrust and lies.  As we wrote of in his time in Argentina and the people of Italy are coming to realize, Francis “is a man sick with power.”

Rabbi Fernando Szlajen on the 49th Anniversary of Yom Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day), commemorating the re-unification of Jerusalem as the eternal capital of the Jewish people and on the eve of Shavuot 5776.

Two rabbis, one from Israel and one from Argentina, were appointed by Pope Francis to the Pontifical Academy of Life, the first time rabbis have been invited to be members of the academy.

Pope Francis appointed 45 new ordinary members and five honorary members to the academy’s advisory body, the Vatican announced last week.

Israeli rabbi Avraham Steinberg, who won the Israel Prize in 1999 for original rabbinic literature, and Argentinean rabbi Fernando Szlajen were designated on June 13 as members of the institution that “exists for the promotion and defense of human life, especially regarding bioethics as it regards Christian morality.”

Rabbi Steinberg is the author of “The Encyclopedia of Jewish Medical Ethics,” for which he was awarded the Israel Prize in 1999. He is the director of the Medical Ethics Unit of the Shaare Tzedek Medical Center in Jerusalem, and director of the Editorial Committee of the Talmudic Encyclopedia.

Rabbi Szlajen, who is from Argentina, the birth country of Pope Francis, is the director of the Department of Culture for the AMIA Jewish community center in Buenos Aires and a professor in the Department of Philosophy and Letters at the University of Buenos Aires.
