WHERE DO I STAND? IS BERGOGLIO THE POPE?
WHERE DO I STAND? IS BERGOGLIO THE POPE?
(Who really cares?)
After having just finished listening to Michael Matt's latest Underground Video: "WHERE DO WE STAND: is Bergoglio the Pope?" some comments are in order. In his video, Michael Matt says that all the usual suspects: Archbishop Vigano, Bishop Schneider, and Bishop Strickland, along with a newcomer, Cardinal Brandon Muller, are rallying the troops on the eve of the Synod on Synodality, which will have its premiere meeting this October. Cardinal Muller, in particular, is going to participate with the "opposition" at the gates of the Vatican and shake his fists at the Synod.
Michael Matt is in full party-hat mode, invoking the memory of The Bearded One (Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, once primate of all French-Speaking Central Africa, for the uninitiated in the nomenclature of this blog) and calling on all Catholics to stay in Holy Mother Church by declaring Francis to be the Roman Pontiff seated on the Chair of Peter (A proposition this wolf never held after than complete Vatican Clown Show Benedict XVI staged in February 2013- the month Clown Church emerged on Clown Planet).
Quite frankly, I do not really care whether Francis be pope or not. Who is currently reigning has never been a dogma of the church. That really boils down to good old fashioned horse sense. Michael tells us that billions of people believe Francis is the pope, so we do not want to alienate them. Well, billions of people also believe that Lee Harvey Oswald fired the Magic Bullet from an Antiquated Rifle through a foliated Live Oak Tree that killed John F Kennedy while all the while standing in the crowd of onlookers in front of the building he was shooting from, and we sure do not want to alienate those also by telling them the truth. So, you can go on believing Francis is pope. That does not make you any less Catholic but it does demonstrate you do not have much horse sense, just as adhering to the Warren Commission Report concerning the JFK Assassination does not make you any less a citizen of the United States.
But what you are setting yourself up for, Michael Matt, is the October Surprise. The Synod is going to Introduce the Rite of Sodomy, and the Seat of the Antichrist will take another giant step towards Armageddon. You would do much better to "unite the clans" on their knees and have them say some extra rosaries invoking Our Lady of Fatima for the speedy triumph of the Immaculate Heart.
And as for all the usual suspects: WOuld they like to start talking about the 600 Pound Gorillas in the room before the Apostolic Succession COMPLETELY disappears, before we will really get what is coming to us.
Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us. You are our only hope!

WW - Yes Sir! I concur that the treachery and apostasy was well underway prior to 1900. For Our Holy Mother to come in 1917 to tell of the current and future trouble, obviously means that there were deep issues preceding Our Lady of Fatima's first appearance on 13 May 1917. As for SSPX and Lefebvrists, all I can say is I go to mass there when I can, not close at all. There is not really any option and Novus Ordo is not Catholic to me. So, I do have to deal with 1962 missal and rubric and calendar and with some priests who think V2 is the only bright line and everyone prior to John XXIII is auto-canonizable. Out Lady of Fatima, pray for us.
Thank you WW! Read all your posts on substack. Great analysis! Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us! Lord, have mercy. Christus Vincit!
