At the end of the Amazon Synod (“walking together”) in October 2019, a black ritual bowl with markings associated with Pachamama, with demonic idol worship, was placed at Francis’ behest directly on the main altar of St. Peter’s Basilica, above the tomb of the Apostle Peter. It had red flowers associated with that demon cult. HERE
Today I caught a video clip from Francis’ celebration of the Easter Vigil in St. Peter’s Basilica (which really ought to have been at the Lateran since, I dunno, it’s the Cathedral – but okay).
Note well. This is not the main altar of the basilica. It is in the apse, where various Masses are held and celebrated upon a portable altar. The true altar, that unified the Mass and Eucharist with the theological message of Bernini’s colossal bronze sculpture of the Chair of Peter was torn out years ago by Virgilio Card. Noè. I was there that morning. I saw them doing it. It was horrifying.
But it wasn’t as horrifying as the sight of that damned black demon bowl on the main altar of St. Peter’s Basilica over the bones of the first Vicar of Christ.
So, black demon bowl on main altar…. Easter Vigil Mass not on main altar in an empty (other than angels) basilica….
Not even half a year after that damned bowl was put on the sacred altar over the holy relics of the head of the Apostles personally chosen by Christ while on Earth.
And I read that in the Holy See’s official yearbook, the Annuario Pontificio for 2020, the title of Vicar of Christ has been dropped from the list of titles for the Pontiff.
This is what the page for Francis looks like in the 2013 Annuario.
And in this year’s Annuario we find “historial titles” as a postscript to the biographical stuff.
The Annuario is the official book that tells everybody who everyone is and what they do.
To recap… black demon bowl on main altar over the bones of the first Vicar of Christ … Easter Vigil Mass not on main altar over the bones of the first Vicar of Christ in an empty (other than angels) basilica… “Vicar of Jesus Christ” relegated to “historical title” in the Holy See’s official book that tells everybody who everyone is and what they do.
Sometimes things that line up just line up by coincidence.

One thing all priests learn in the seminary–and all of us need to learn as well– is this: “It’s not about you.” Many forget this directive, and it is clear when they do.
Pope Francis has chosen to make it “all about him,” his titles being subordinate to his person.
No bueno.
If the ‘actions’ of senior clergy to seemingly elevate demonic idol worship in the Catholic Holy-of-Holies are de facto telling Our Blessed Lord to ‘shake the dust of this place from your sandals…'(cf Matthew 10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words: going forth out of that house or city shake off the dust from your feet.), is it any wonder that the Lord Jesus has seemingly withdrawn sanctifying grace from large measures of the Church Universal?
And don’t forget the forming of the Thirty Pieces of Silver Committee that was announced right on Spy Wednesday, Father.
In fact, a long list of strange and weird acts could be written up about this pontificate.
-The kissing of the feet of them African political leaders.
-The strange borderline obscene nativity scene of a few years back in St. Peter’s Square.
-Many of the right people being replaced by the wrong people in key Vatican positions.
-Pretty much all of the synods that have taken place.
Whatever happened to that same Francis who immediately tackled the problem of the devil during his homily at his very first mass as pope? Back then he said: “he who doesn’t pray to the Lord prays to the devil”. He even went on to warn that the Church risked being merely a charitable NGO.

In (much) older editions, was that page in Latin?
I stopped believing in coincidences about the same time I stopped believing in the Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, and Santa…
One of the commenters here said last autumn that after the black bowl, there would be no Easter Mass at the main altar. Sure enough. And now we have titoli storici. What else will become storico during this year? Things are proceeding at warp speed.
For decades now it’s been hard to avoid stumbling over that old advice from Maya Angelou that when somebody shows you what they are you should believe them the first time. Or, I guess, you can just ignore the regular recycling of the messages (drip, drip, drip) until they seem quite unremarkable.
And also the very bizarre sight Friday night of the Pope sitting illuminated while looking down at the Crucified Christ in the dark. God is rightfully angry at us for our manifest sins. We have the pope we deserve and now are deprived of assisting at Holy Mass and receiving the Sacraments. Lord, have mercy on us and convert us from our perversions and all that offends thee. +JMJ+
@Clinton R. So very true, so very true.
Christ is Risen!
We need to pray like we have never done so before.
I still can’t fathom why anyone who had the option to celebrate the Easter Vigil above the crypt of St. Peter on Bernini’s altar would choose an alternative. Unless it were the a Holy Sepulcher itself.
The purpose of such bowls in American indigenous worship is to offer sacrifice to demons. The fact that such an item was allowed to be brought inside a Christian temple is disturbing. The entire place and whomever allowed this to happen needs spiritual cleansing, urgently.
“Eligentur, et dealbabuntur, et quasi ignis probabuntur multi : et impie agent impii, neque intelligent omnes impii : porro docti intelligent.
Et a tempore cum ablatum fuerit juge sacrificium, et posita fuerit abominatio in desolationem, dies mille ducenti nonaginta.”
(Daniel 12,10-11)
We watched the Vatican Mass and sermon this morning starting at 3am. Something bothered me hours afterwards. The Prayers of the Faithful appeared to me to be generic, right out of the “Cliff Notes” (for Millennials that was a cheat book in old college days). The sermon appeared to be secular centric, that is, comments about the EU, geopolitical and geographic areas of conflict, and an apparent jab at US sanctions. Not much about the Corona 19 virus, the sick, suffering, and the dead.
It almost appears (with Fr. Z’s exception) that the power and belief in prayer, resulting in Divine Intervention is absent. Not only in the Vatican but locally as well. It’s like we lay are suppose to know, without guidance, education, and examples what and how we are to pray specifically for this world crisis. Like this never happened before, historically, and everything will be OK after the quarantine is over. We have received, however, televised Masses and online giving. Makes one wonder if that is our future and the pews will remain empty when this world crisis recedes. Foreshadowing of events to come?
It’s a contradiction, meant to intrigue. Communism seeks to present itself as egalitarian, I believe, so honorary titles would be perhaps rejected in that spirit, I am just a humble bishop of Rome, certainly not, Vicar of Christ. The office of the pope must be brought down. But he has an uncanny way of always ending up the focus of attention, in dramatic photographs, as the center pin of issues. You can’t make sense of him, but just as long as you’re thinking about him, is the point. Even if he worries you. Fine. Even better.
There is also some characteristic in which Satan cannot claim what is not his and will tell you who he is. Many Catholics are simply not paying attention. They don’t believe their own eyes and ears.
Of all the things seen and heard in the last 7 years, the Pachamama bowl brought up to the altar by the pope coupled with the blatant demon worship in the Vatican garden is easily the most horrifying, seconded by the mostly silent response by our Cardinals and bishops. One truly wonders what could take place at the altar of God that these men would find objectionable or anti-Catholic enough to overcome their fear and loosen their tongues. Perhaps nothing.
Notre Dame. Pachamama. Pandemic. The world suffers while the church whistles.
“Tomorrow, as morning spreads around the planet, we’ll celebrate the triumph of life over death, the Resurrection of Jesus. Both observances tell of sacrifice and pain but also of hope and triumph.
“As we look around us today, we still find human pain and suffering, but we also see it answered with individual courage and spirit, strengthened by faith. For example, the brave Polish people, despite the oppression of a godless tyranny, still cling to their faith and their belief in freedom. Shortly after Palm Sunday Mass this week, Lech Walesa faced a cheering crowd of workers outside a Gdansk church. He held his hand up in a sign of victory and predicted, “The time will come when we will win.”
…
“We saw this during Pope John Paul II’s recent visit there. As he conducted a Mass in Nicaragua, state police jeered and led organized heckling by Sandinista supporters. But the Pope lifted a crucifix above his head and waved it at the crowd before him, then turned and symbolically held it up before the massive painting of Sandinista soldiers that loomed behind. The symbol of good prevailed. In contrast, everywhere else the Holy Father went in the region, spreading a message that only love can build, he was met by throngs of enthusiastic believers, eager for Papal guidance and blessing.
…
“And if we live our lives and dedicate our country to truth, to love, and to God, we will be a part of something much stronger and much more enduring than any negative power here on Earth. That’s why this weekend is a celebration and why there is hope for us all.
“Thanks for listening, and God bless you.”
-Ronald Reagan, Easter 1983
“Though we will not be able to gather together with one another as we normally would on Easter, we can use this sacred time to focus on prayer, reflection, and growing in our personal relationship with God.
“I ask all Americans to pray that God will heal our nation; to bring comfort to those who are grieving; to give strength to the doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers; to restore health to the sick; and to renew hope in every person who is suffering.”
-Donald Trump, Easter 2020
God bless faithful priests and bishops doing the Lord’s work. May the plots of certain governors and mayors, certain clergy, religious and laity meet with utter ruin.
“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence among my people, if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
-2 Chronicles 7

Perhaps he does not claim to be the Vicar of Christ, or any other papal title. Perhaps he does not even claim to be the pope or bishop of Rome. Aside from the footnotes you’d think he was just some guy.
I think the “attention” thing Kathleen10 posted is correct.
I also think that Pope Francis has a hard time climbing steps without help, and that a lot of stuff is being arranged so that he doesn’t have to admit that or make it obvious. St. John Lateran has steps. The big altar at St. Peter’s has steps. (And if that’s the case, the Pope should just swallow his pride and admit that coronavirus worries don’t go well with assistants holding his arms, so he’s using altars with flat approaches.)
But I agree that the Pachamama filth still needs to be dealt with. Maybe the next pope will do a nice cleansing and rededication of St. Peter’s. Even if it is required, strictly speaking, I think it would be popular with the faithful. And aside from expense and big ladders, it couldn’t hurt.
Dear Mariana, Glad Påsk på dig med!
Now that you mention it, I also seem to remember that post about no Mass at the High Altar. Could you by any chance find it for us?

Prayers for Pope Francis, ALL Catholic Clergy and Consecrated Religious, Seminarians that God will give them the grace needed to do His will and to bring as many souls to Heaven as possible.
To call something “historical titles” does not by itself suggest that the titles are no longer active. If these were being officially dropped, why would they exclude others that had recently been dropped from this list? I’m thinking specifically “Patriarch of the West.” It would have caused no harm to reintroduce it as a mere “historical title” of the office of Pope if these other titles have been similarly set aside.
Seems like much ado about not very much.
I wonder who made the decision to relocate the title. I don’t know whether Pope Francis had anything to do with it.
But he’s still the pope, right? Still Christ’s vicar on earth?
At Akita, Japan(1973) Our Lady told Sr. Sasagawa:
” Churches and altars will be desecrated. The Church will be filled with those who accept compromise.”
Sometimes, instead of “desecrated ” it has been translated as “vandalized ” or “sacked”. It would be interesting to know what connotations the original verb used in Japanese has. After the events involving Pachamama, I stumbled upon a translation using “desecrated ” and it really stood out to me.
Also, it has been reported that on the eve of October 6th, 2019,( the opening day of the Amazonian Synod) Sr. Sasagawa received a new message. This time the message was apparently from her guardian angel, telling her ” Put on ashes and pray a penitential rosary “.
There are some good documentaries on YouTube covering the original apparitions that also include footage of Sr. Sasagawa retelling the events of 1973.

Dear Vexilla Regis,
Tack!
I did a quick search, but couldn’t find the comment. Also, I am only about 165km to the east from you : ) .
According to Conchita Gonzales that Our Lady in Garabandal sent a message:
“Many priests, bishops and cardinals are on the road to perdition and taking many souls with them.”

Not the vicar.
Never was.

Suppose a US president were to refer to the title “Commander in Chief” (Art. II Section 2) as an “historical title,” but later called for military strikes, wouldn’t his opponents point to this, saying that by his own words “Commander in Chief” is a mere historical title, and consequently affords him no rights or duties today?
Likewise, is it unreasonable to say that this indicates that Francis no longer claims and no longer considers himself the “Vicar of Christ” &c. and that he has, de facto, abdicated the papacy?
To please our Lord and to bring sanity to our church, the Spirit of Vatican II must be pulled out by its roots. We are floundering around like lost sheep, our leadership is delusional. After all, these men were ordained to save souls, since the 1960s they have unwittingly worked in a concerted effort to lose them. Good intentions are not a valid excuse, just a cursory look at the fruit of VII should call forth a Nuremburg like trial, to emphasize the many errors that have caused the faithful to be so bewildered.
Pachamama and women deacons are only the beginning of a new disorder, we must return to what made us One, Holy, and Apostolic. It should all begin with the reestablishment of Latin as the only language permitted to praise our Lord.
Well, either Pope Francis is the Vicar of Christ or he isn’t. Both ways are problematic, to say the least. When did he lay off the title??
Sadly this just excites the sedevacantists.
I’m glad Pope Benedict is still with us.
Dear Mariana,
thanks! I think I know where you live from a post some years ago. Alas, we are further apart than 165 km – it’s more like 800, since I live in the South.
