Pingback: 4 October 2019 – Demon idol Pachamama ceremony in the Vatican Gardens for the Amazon Synod | Fr. Z’s Blog – The Old Roman
1:03 – 1:07:30 especially 1:05:40-50 Absolutely horrifying.
It is no wonder that we have experienced a worldwide pestilence. This is the normal punishment for idolatry.
Mary Terror of Demons, Protect us.
Looking forward to your comments on the Economy of Francesco, Crisis article this morning 10/4…
I bet that’s one video the Pope would like to see disappear eh?
I think part of holding the Pope’s feet to the fire re the Pachamama episode is to examine the existing Amazonian tribes that worship the P-daemon. Check out the YouTube video entitled “Storyville Secrets Of The Tribe.” It’s a Sundance and Cannes award-winning movie about cultural anthropologists who investigated the primitive Amazonian Yanomani Indians who are a great favorite of the South American clergy, who often hold them up as ‘pure, natural communties.’ The main figure behind the Amazon Synod’s Instrumentum Laboris and its full-throated advocacy for native cultures, Bishop Erwin Kräutler boasted that in thirty-five years working in the Brazilian Xingu Amazon region (an area the size of Germany), he never baptized a single indigenous person, including any of the Yanomani.
This is the same culture where passive infanticide is practiced. If a Yanomani woman gives birth and the child is not ‘accepted’ by the tribe, the birth mother takes the baby into the jungle and buries it in a shallow hole. The infant, if it does not die by suffocation or eaten by animals eventually dies of dehydration / malnutrition and this act is considered a tribal offering to “Mother Earth” or the P daemon.
The demons have been released! Blessing sodomite unions in Germany, trying to shut down TLM. Now, top Cardinal says Biden should receive Holy Communion. What about being in a “STATE OF GRACE” to receive Holy Communion? He is publicly condoning abortion up to birth and other evils.Giving the Eucharist to him, would be sacrilege.
To correct the Cardinal, Holy Communion is our most important weapon, along with Confession, and the daily Rosary.
Revolting.
Pope Francis, through his actions and words, has done more than anyone else in the world to drive new Mass Catholics to the Traditional Latin Mass. Insofar as responsibility can be attributed to any individual, he more than anyone else is responsible for the growth of the Traditional Latin Mass over the last eight years.
You know, it takes a special kind of person to insult his own patron saint, by doing stuff like this on his own feast day. On purpose. After months of planning.
I watched only 1:03:00-1:07:30 – it didn’t seem particularly repulsive. Though it did remind me of a scene of what is in fact diabolism, in That Hideous Strength. Which is in every sense a fantastic book.
If a pope is a party to an act of idolatry, how can he be regarded as a legitimate and valid pope ? The silence from the cardinals & other bishops these last two years has been almost total. If the bishops cannot tell Christolatry from idolatry – what good can they possibly be as bishops ? They would be more use as roadsweepers.
I couldn’t help but notice that Georg Gänswein was there present the whole time, albeit in one of the rows to the back behind Francis. In fact, I couldn’t help but wonder who were the other prelates on the first row.
And then that monk with the long hair who was taking part of the pagan ritual. I suppose one day he will become a Monsignor thanks to this little episode alone.
I couldn’t help wondering how everything that happens in that video is a true “laugh in the Lord’s face”, to borrow the same expression Bergoglio used when referring to proclaiming the readings in the TLM in Latin.
Speaking of Bergoglio, I have noticed that the only few times he ever smiles are in occasions in which blasphemy and other sacrilegious events are taking place. I remember his smile during the synod on youth when he was watching some bizarre modern dancing in the Paul VI Hall….a show that was extremely secular in nature and might as well could have taken place as part of some fashion show in some random suburban mall. And don’t get me started on the “discotheque” at the Vatican with typical discotheque lights and smoke with prelates dancing in their full cassock suits together with the youth on site… talk about total cringe.
One more thing, as I was watching the above video, I couldn’t help but think that if a priest wishing to say the TLM has any concerns about breaking any of the rules stipulated in TC, all he has to do is watch the video and he will immediately feel justified in ignoring TC, and with a good conscience.
If anything, the above video made me realize that we need more TLMs now more than ever, especially in the age of pachapacha-Francis
Jim: “If a pope is a party to an act of idolatry, how can he be regarded as a legitimate and valid pope ?”
If a Pope commits adultery and hides it by lying under oath, how can he be regarded as a legitimate and valid pope? Some real popes go to Heaven, and other popes are not good persons…
An act of idolatry does preclude being pope.
@Jim If you watched that segment, then you did see something particularly repulsive — even if it did not seem so to you.
Through the rest of it, judging only from the video, we could imagine that Francis was an observer of this event. Drawn into it early by that weird quasi blessing by the priestess early on and faced with an obviously unwelcome necklace that he acquiesced in wearing…
But in that segment at the end, we see him shoveling the pile of dirt which has been ceremonially consecrated to the demon goddess onto the roots of the tree dedicated in her honor. The Vicar of Christ acting as the servant of the demoness.
Then after another little ceremony by the priestess a small part of that dirt is prepared with incantations and gestures and placed in one of those black bowls. Francis then sprinkles it with the hands consecrated to the service of Christ onto the feet of the demoness’ tree. I think of how the early Roman martyrs went to their deaths rather than take even a small pinch of incense to sprinkle on the demon altars….
The other parts cold possibly be explained away, but this segment shows that Our Holy Father made himself a willing participant ( and even , in a way, an officiant) in the terrible sacrilege.
Bergoglio, Jan. 10, 2020:
“In worship, we learn to reject what should not be worshiped: the god of money, the god of consumerism, the god of pleasure, the god of success, the god of self.”
This video is additional documentary evidence of the Bergoglio anti-Gospel. The papalotrous are silent on this matter, their political religion is based on allegiance to a Strong Man, an Ubermensch who must be blindly followed, even if over a Gadarene cliff.
pjm88: “An act of idolatry does preclude being pope.” It sure does, so does a disordered mafia installing a disordered individual.
The Astronomer: Good comment
donato2: “…through his actions and words, has done more than anyone else in the world to drive new Mass Catholics to the Traditional Latin Mass.”
The Lord brings good out of evil.
Suburbanbanshee: “You know, it takes a special kind of person to insult his own patron saint, by doing stuff like this on his own feast day.”
He has free will, and freely chooses to stay on the wrong path, encouraging and demanding others join him. One way or another, in God’s good time, there will be justice.
Fr. Kelly: “… he made himself a willing participant (and even, in a way, an officiant) in the terrible sacrilege.”
Good point. The Astronomer above: “…the birth mother takes the baby into the jungle and buries it in a shallow hole. The infant, if it does not die by suffocation or eaten by animals eventually dies of dehydration / malnutrition and this act is considered a tribal offering to “Mother Earth” or the P daemon.”
God will not be mocked.
kurtmasur: “…if a priest wishing to say the TLM has any concerns about breaking any of the rules stipulated in TC, all he has to do is watch the video and he will immediately feel justified in ignoring TC, and with a good conscience.”
Excellent point. Priests are Men of God, not men of Bergoglio.
