Ploys & Perfidies Revisited

THE EDITOR

"A Jesuit education confused him,
and he spreads this confusion like a virus."

 

The context of the quote was a Pentecost sermon by Father Francis Gloudeman on the reign of falsehoods in Church and society; mendacity most clearly identified by hypocrisy.

Saying "one thing and doing something [that is] the opposite," he insisted, is "fake. Being fake." He pointed to the ultimate faker, Joe Biden, as "a good example of hypocrisy. He says he is a good Catholic, but he’s the opposite. He supports those things, which are against Catholicism. That is hypocrisy on a grand scale — in front of the whole world!"

Such brazen duplicity is to be expected from one who has capped a political career of epic self-serving and treachery (to put it politely) by finally accepting a fake presidency stolen "in front of the whole world." Compared to that whopper, lying to the world about one's faith is child's play.

But along with Beijing Joe, Fr. Gloudeman also directed his Californian flock to the current pontiff.

Falsehood, he explained, can also be identified by causing confusion. "A prime example of that would be Pope Francis," he said, who "spreads his confusion like a virus."

Fr. Gloudeman views this hallmark confusion of Jorge Bergoglio, S.J., as the product of his poor formation. True. But that is only part of it, since the 'confusion' itself is fake.

A Pope forever mouthing blasphemous absurdities (e.g., "Our Lady was human! And perhaps she even had the desire to say: ‘Lies! I was deceived!’") has clearly imbibed heretical views. However, once a Catholic persona has been malformed and supplanted by a Modernist one there is no longer any confusion. All that remains in the prideful heart, mind and soul of the propagandised ecclesiastic is contempt for Catholic dogma; now viewed as harmful obscurantism thwarting evolutionary "progress" towards Teilhard's Omega Point, or some such pantheistic endgame.

To counter the spread of papal 'confusion,' therefore, one must first acknowledge the deliberation involved, then discern the deceitful means by which subversive falsehoods are dressed up and propagated (all of which signifies rejection of grace).

This recent headline exemplifies the strategy:

"Pope laments Italy’s declining birth rates, fails to mention abortion, contraception."

Though unremarkable by Jorge's duplicitous standards, it encapsulates a routine ploy of his pontificate: the safe lamentation.

The ruse involves a righteous papal denunciation of a crippling effect (say, demographic collapse) that avoids its sinful cause.

Or, alternatively and safer still, denouncing moral abominations like the 'right' to abortion, which Francis has indeed condemned, but "never out loud at a moment when the dispute over an issue has become heated," as commentator Sandro Magister once noted.

Whenever his demagogic call to "make a mess" might actually make productive sense, in other words, he goes missing. Magister cites as one example Jorge's silence before a UN report that exalted him but "humiliates" the Church, calling on the Vatican to "correct" its teachings on abortion, the family, and sex.

Quietism that shouts!

These strategic retreats to the Quiet Zone came thick and fast in 2015: the Year of Sodom in which homo 'marriage' was formally recognised in Ireland and America.

A mockery of Divine and natural law consummated, as it were, by establishing moral equivalence between buggery and the marital act, Pope Bergoglio's refusal to enter the fray and denounce those two national abominations was at once satanically quietistic and a hellishly loud statement of intent.

More chilling still was the cold-blooded manner in which he all but ignored family and life issues in his historic 2015 address to the US Congress, despite the platform afforded him by media coverage of Planned Parenthood trafficking organs of the unborn babies they kill.

"Only 75 of the 3,400 words [of his Congressional address] had anything to do with anything even close" to life and marriage, sighed Albert Mohler, President of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Even the pro-abort New York Times was struck by the manner in which the Pope momentarily raised the life issue during his address, only to change tack: "Instead of continuing on to talk about the need to end abortion, he pivots to the death penalty." And again, after decrying "money that is drenched in blood, often innocent blood," which defined the Planned Parenthood aborted baby parts scandal then raging in the press, he framed that lament too within the safe parameters of the social gospel and its subversive 'seamless garment', connecting it only to the arms trade.

Said the sorely disillusioned Mohler:

"Abortion is now one of the most controversial frontline issues in America today, [yet] even though the sanctity of human life is a fundamental teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, it was virtually missing from the Pope’s statement. [Instead, it was] a very fuzzy and evasive approach that left many people wondering if he was actually talking about either abortion or marriage at all. [He spoke] of the future of marriage in such a way that virtually no one regardless of their position on the moral revolution can disagree with him. [H]e never defined it and he certainly didn’t draw attention to the fact that the Roman Catholic Church identifies marriage as and only as the union of a man and a woman."

Although I treated this shameful episode at the time, in the face of non-stop scandals before and since which threaten to banalise papal apostasy, blasphemy, sacrilege and heresy (see "The 'Bergoglian Synthesis'," CO, Aug-Sept 2016) we do well to pause occasionally and recollect: lest the horror personified by Pope Bergoglio gets lost in the blur of his daily betrayals. Especially when they are covered over by papal window dressing like that captured in the aforementioned headline, where even righteous protest hollows out the Faith by sly sins of omission.

In effect, the Papal Quietism shouts out against the following benchmarks of evangelical duty, obligation, and responsibility; now papally discarded, and in 2015 blown to smithereens before Congress:

Common purpose: Jorge & Hans

Many more such exhortations from scripture, the Church Fathers and Doctors, saints, Councils and previous pontiffs could be cited, all of which speak to the signal tragedy of this papacy: the wholesale abandonment of Catholic evangelism.

For decades we endured the vaunted "New Evangelisation." A quagmire of contradictions, it rested on the greatest contradiction of all: the liturgical quicksand of the New Mass. Nonetheless, its hapless proponents were generally motivated by goodwill and held no overt animus for the Faith. Today, however, the ineffectual and unlamented New Evangelisation has been resuscitated, inverted, weaponised and deployed against the Church by a Pope hell bent on Anti-Evangelisation.

His splenetic aversion to Catholic conversions and to Catholic Tradition in general, including egalitarian contempt for the pre-eminent office he holds, only makes sense when Pope Bergoglio is situated within the concentric circles of power undergirding the globalist pyramid. That is, when he is seen as a major strategic 'asset' whose allotted task is to accelerate the hitherto gradualistic deconstruction of the Church and bring it to globalist heel in toto by the end of this decade, to meet the UN's breathless Agenda 2030 (Great Reset/NWO) timetable — a schedule further hastened by the Covid criminality he eagerly promotes. (1)

Countless indicators point to the long and steady cultivation of Jorge Bergoglio to accomplish this task. Not least the jubilation of Lodge leaders upon the papal election of one so perfectly attuned to their principles and worldview. A poster boy for social masonry, through his honorary membership of Rotary, he was subsequently exposed as a formal member of the Lodge by the Vatican's Chief of Intelligence in Argentina, during an intercepted phone call broadcast on national TV (- see "Storm Jorge," CO, Aug-Sept 2020).

His character traits also met those set forth in Lodge guidelines issued in 1961 and re-reprinted in a 1974 issue of the Bulletin d’Information Indépendant Catholique (N° 112, Brussels). These state that:

"The Pope who we will elect shall possess the highest degree in the skill of ambivalence (work as a double agent). For example, disapproving of the Modernists with words, but with 'actions' will support them (abolishing, first of all, the anti-modernist oath)."

This perfectly depicts the character of the pontiff elected just two years later: Paul VI; a pope renowned for his vacillation and ambivalence, who did indeed abolish the Oath Against Modernism in 1967. But it also describes Francis to a tee. For, while he dares to laud Modernists rather than feign disapproval of them, as a self-professed deceiver and master of doublespeak (2)(condemned by Christ as "evil" - Matt. 5:37) he too meets the above masonic criteria to "the highest degree."

To complete the pseudo-religious centrepiece of the New World Oder is the essential mission of the dogma-detesting Jorge — a pontiff who does not seek "doctrinal 'security'" like a "Christian restorationist" (19/8/13) because, he falsely proclaims, "faith is not an inheritance we receive from others" but something "we build day by day" (7/6/14).

The late arch-heretic Hans Küng himself could not have put it better! Indeed, Jorge's "we" includes Hans and all the other gnostics and heretics who preceded him; who worked to "build day by day" a spiritual-ethical-philosophical Tower of Babel to replace the "rigid" faith Jorge forever bemoans and is now building over with his Abu Dhabi declaration, among other syncretic constructions.

Like Jorge, Hans was a talkative attention-seeker who despised doctrinal absolutes. Yet whereas Jorge finds theology boring, prefers pastoral scheming, and even prides himself on his Argentine craftiness ("Perhaps I can say that I am a bit astute, that I can adapt to circumstances" - 19/8/13), the intellectual Hans was a blunt Germanic instrument.

An out and proud apostate-cum-syncretist, he fully understood Catholic dogma and could explain Church teachings with rare clarity. Having done so, however, like all the prideful heretics since Adam he would then conclude that they were wrong, and had to be replaced. Yet whereas heretics of yore were mired in national interests, Hans sought a "global ethic" at the service of a One World Church (cf. "The Global Ethic: From Golden Rule to Common Ground," CO, Dec. 1997; and "The Global Ethic Analyzed," Jan. 1998.)

Also unlike Bergoglio, Küng does not appear to have been openly associated with or accused of membership of the Lodge. Nonetheless, as alluded in this telling extract from his lengthy, sympathetic obituary published in The Daily Telegraph of 8 April 2021, he was a case-study of how the Lodge co-opts like-minded humanists to its perennial, anti-Catholic cause:

In 1991 he [Küng] produced Global Responsibility: in search of a world ethic, and afterwards received a telephone call from an unknown German count who offered 5.5 million Deutschmarks to finance a foundation to pursue this subject. The foundation was established in 1995, with Küng as its president, and he wrote more books, as well as organising seminars and exhibitions holding consultations with international statesmen.

So, all that syncretistic subversion apparently funded by a front man for a fabulously wealthy 'interested party' that sought out a Catholic apostate pushing an elastic "global ethic" (—which inexorably stretched to include the 'ethical' suicide Hans began touting in 2013). Gosh, who might that sponsoring entity have been? The same one in raptures over its papal puppet, perhaps?

In fact, Jorge is simply piggy-backing Hans and all the other useful idiot-apostates and revolutionaries who have advanced in myriad ways the anarchic motto of the Lodge: Solve et Coagula — i.e.,Destroyand Rebuild. As in: annihilate the Church and Christian social order, and on the ruins 'build back [a] better' counter-church tailored to a world enslaved by technocracy.

The only difference is Küng's informal contribution as opposed to Bergoglio's formal one of setting an unprecedented pace of ecclesiastical "Solve." Among the dozens of Lodge grandees who laud his full-throttle approach, Gustavo Raffi, Grand Master of the Grand Orient of Italy, typically gushed in April 2014:

"Just look back inside those walls that separate Italy from the Vatican to understand that something is changing. We observe with care and respect as this Pope is accelerating the timing of an epochal change within the horizon of structures traditionally reluctant to welcome the innovative ferment. And the reflections of his influence echo far beyond the borders of the sacristy."

In this task, Pope Bergoglio aligns himself with and is aided and abetted by globalists high and low: from the atheistic celebrities he regularly sponsors at Vatican conferences, to the more pedestrian operatives exposed by Wikileaks and Vatileaks (—such as Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign manager, caught discussing the urgent need for revolution within the Church in a 2011 email exchange that also identified pseudo-Catholic groups ready to trigger a "Catholic Spring").

But over and above such workaday collusion, much closer control remains on tap. For, the same mechanisms of masonic power employed to take down the Vatican in early 2013 — which brutal financial attack against a sovereign state forced, or at very least accelerated Benedict's departure — can always be brought to bear to keep Brother Jorge on message. (Cf., "Money, Sex and Modernism," CO, March 2016; "Who Is Jorge Maria Bergoglio," Jan. 2017; "Francis Accepts His Prize," June-July 2016.)

Evil embraced

The Küng-Bergoglio continuum, which speaks to very dark designs, explains a lot. Including Rome's diabolic feting of notorious anti-life/anti-family advocates, and the otherwise incomprehensible 2015 Congressional dereliction recounted above, which remains one of the most vivid of all the myriad pointers to Pope Bergoglio's treacherous purpose and mission. For it is hard to imagine a more Luciferian reaction than the refusal to seize and maximise a papal teaching moment of such magnitude in circumstances so wholly favourable to the pro-life cause as to be manifestly Providential.

Not that it should have made the slightest difference, of course. Mother Teresa did not require the impetus of a massive Planned Parenthood scandal to forcefully promote the sanctity of life and Catholic truth to American lawmakers. Famously, she just did her duty and set them straight! Yet even with the Providential leg up so obviously extended to him, Pope Bergoglio could neither bring himself to preach the sanctity of life from conception, nor remind his captive audience of their need to ensure that all government policies serve to promote and protect both natural marriage and large families (if only to ensure national survival). Albert Mohler nailed the masonic essence of the underlying papal intention:

It represents an opportunity to avoid having to get to the hard edges of Christian truth. It is an intentional effort to avoid a direct confrontation with the secularising culture. It is an effort to try to get along in terms of this moral revolution, not so much at this point by changing the teachings of his Church, but by soft-pedalling them or in the case of his address to Congress not even mentioning them. Not even daring to define marriage which is so central to the Catholic Church that it is actually one of the sacraments recognised by the Church, but the Pope didn’t reference marriage and he didn’t define it and that is incredibly telling.

On the one hand, it was just another deliberate evasion of papal responsibility to teach the moral causes of devastating effects. But on the other, it was such a monumental and flagrant "Non serviam!" that it went beyond the diabolical disorientation of the modern-day hierarchy, as forewarned by Sister Lucy, to a calculated embrace of an evil inspiration.

In other words, Pope Bergoglio took an executive decision, as it were, to betray every natural, beautiful, wholesome thing in the flock entrusted to him: to feed the weak and vulnerable — the unborn, marriage, families — to the globalist wolves forever preying on them; such as those publicly exposed at that very moment for butchering the unborn then plundering and selling their organs.

As I pointed out at the time, the papal silence stood in stark contrast to the battle cry of Bishop Thomas Olmsted of Phoenix who, shortly after the Congressional non-event, did not calculate like a hireling but addressed his flock with the urgency of a true shepherd:

As I write this exhortation, videos are being released documenting the barbaric practice of selling baby body parts by Planned Parenthood. .... [N]o American citizen, and certainly no man, can remain silent about this travesty of our times. We need to get off the sidelines and stand up for life on the front lines. We need faith like that of our fathers who defended the children of previous generations and who gave up their own lives rather than abandon their faith in Christ. My sons and brothers, men of the Diocese of Phoenix, we need you to step into the breach!

Let us recall, too, that in the process of his silent complicity, per usual, Pope Bergoglio did not once mention Jesus Christ, as Albert Mohler also noted in utter disbelief.

The ongoing scandal of Jorge is far worse for upstanding Protestant leaders like Mr Mohler because they do not readily comprehend that FrancisChurch and the Catholic Church are not the same entity. On the contrary, in Protestant hearts and minds all the black legends about the Church and the Jesuits on which they were raised are realised in the sheer perversity of this deceitful pontificate. Sadly, they cannot make a distinction because they seldom hear the pristine Catholic voice of authentic shepherds after Our Lord's heart like Bishop Olmsted, or Bishop Antonio Suetta and Archbishop Viganò whose uplifting, unadulterated Catholicity is carried herein.

Sacrificial stumbling block

Meanwhile, credible reports have resurfaced of a draft document circulating in Rome which, if signed by the Pope, would limit availability of the Traditional Mass and cast us back into the pre-2007 liturgical catacombs, or worse.

In light of that particular storm cloud — always looming and threatening to unleash a TLM take down upon the death of Benedict XVI — we also revisit the original campaign waged against the Mass of Ages by Brother Annibale Bugnini (Lodge codename "BUAN"; initiated 23/4/63). For the masonic spirit that animated his liturgical revolution still prevails. It explains why sixty years later, as Phil Lawler of Catholic Culture recentlyobserved, "the one liturgical option liberal Catholics cannot abide is the option for the ancient liturgy."

This spiritual malignancy lives on in all masonic fellow travellers (aka "liberal Catholics"), whose contempt for a Mass that "earlier generations held as sacred," as Benedict XVI insisted, is visceral. Viewed as a sacrificial obstruction to the One World-congregationalism they crave, the secularising spirit that grips them will never rest until every last supernatural vestige of the Old Mass is effaced; destroying with it the convinced Catholicity it cultivates and radiates, while subverting papal authority in the process.

After all, notes Lawler, "If Pope Francis can contradict the teaching of Pope Benedict [in Summorum Pontificum], what is to prevent a future Pontiff from contradicting Pope Francis?"

The answer to which is: "Nothing at all," since that is the suicidal point of the whole subversive exercise facilitated by Annibale, Hans, Jorge and all the instruments united in common purpose to refashion the Church as a secular adjunct to the UN. 

Crowning perfidy

Beyond that goal, the Real Presence remains the major quarry; their ultimate target.

It is flagged by Pope Bergoglio's myriad degradations and deconstructions of the Holy Eucharist. Notably by his scandalous bearing before the Blessed Sacrament (CO passim), and his heretical insistence that the multiplication of loaves was just a symbol of sharing with others ("They didn’t multiply, no, that’s not true." - 16/5/13).

During Holy Week 2020, to help him rationalise the betrayal of Judas he even invented his own spurious title, "Bread of sinners," while failing to mention the one vital criteria for reception of Holy Communion: worthiness. Effectively declaring open season on the Blessed Sacrament, he stated: "the Eucharist is not the reward of saints, but the Bread of sinners. This is why he [Christ] exhorts us: ‘Do not be afraid! Take and eat’.” (8/4/20)

To fully comprehend the evil at play here, consider this declaration by the Council of Trent on the necessity of a worthy preparation for reception of the Eucharist:

If anyone says that faith alone is sufficient preparation for receiving the sacrament of the most Holy Eucharist: let him be anathema. And that so great a Sacrament may not be unworthily received, and therefore unto death and condemnation, this holy Council ordains and declares that sacramental confession must necessarily be made beforehand by those whose conscience is burdened by mortal sin, however contrite they may consider themselves. If anyone moreover teaches the contrary or preaches or obstinately asserts, or even publicly by disputation shall presume to defend the contrary, by that fact itself he is excommunicated. (Council of Trent, Session XIII, Canon 11; Denziger 893)

Is it any wonder Jorge detests dogma!

Or that he seeks to weed out "rigid" seminarians who prefer the "yes, yes: no, no" clarity of Trent to his deceitful "yes, no: no, yes" forked tongue!

The Bergoglian unbelief is also made manifest in the ongoing attempt to institutionalise sacrilegious Communions. Set in train by his Amoris Laetitae deception, the ensuing commentaries by George Neumayr address the associated ploy at the service of that satanic end: politicisation of the Eucharist.

The current feasts of Corpus Christi and the Precious Blood cry out against this crowning perfidy of the Dictator Pope! Let us console Our Saviour with prayers and acts of reparation.
