The Vatican, Epstein and Maxwell

Published on by Kathy Clubb4 Comments

In 2021, Pope Francis launched a joint venture between the Vatican and some wealthy technocrats known as the Council for Inclusive Capitalism. Heading up this synarchists’ dream is the uber-globalist, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, wife of Sir Evelyn de Rothschild of, well, Rothschild fame.

Forester de Rothschild’s Coalition for Inclusive Capital is funded by, among others, the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations – two influential proponents of population control and other nefarious agendas. (An interesting side note for Australian readers: one of the so-called “Guardians” of the Coalition is Sharan Burrow – a WEF associate and General Secretary of the International Trade Union Conference.)

De Rothschild also has links with the Clintons – and with Jeffrey Epstein. Prior to her marriage, Ms Forester had close ties with the Democrat party, and was a major fundraiser for Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign. Forester also worked for President Bill Clinton, on his National Information Infrastructure Advisory Committee and on his Secretary of Energy Advisory Board. In 1995, she wrote to the former president, mentioning Epstein.

‘Dear Mr. President: It was a pleasure to see you recently at Senator Kennedy’s house.

‘There was too much to discuss and too little time. Using my fifteen seconds of access to discuss Jeffrey Epstein and currency stabilization, I neglected to talk to you about a topic near and dear to my heart. Namely, affirmative action and the future’.

Lynn Forester to Bill Clinton, 1995

But that isn’t the end of Forester’s ties to Epstein: in 2000, Forester sold her Manhattan apartment to an anonymous corporation (this turned out to be the Terra Mar Project – *see below ) which was housed at the same address as Epstein’s New York office. It was quite the bargain at more than USD $8 million below market value and became the home of Ghislaine Maxwell until 2016.

Forester is said to have been close friends with Epstein, and is often credited with having introduced him to Bill Clinton. She was once a member of the McCain Institute (like many similarly incriminating records, the offending page has been scrubbed). One goal of the McCain Institute is to combat human sex-trafficking, but the organisation perversely, has many ties to Epstein and has apparently never exposed his crimes, even though its founder publicly acknowledged his guilt.

*Terra Mar was founded by Maxwell in 2012, and closed abruptly in 2019, just weeks after the arrest of Jeffrey Epstein. For more about Terra Mar and its potential links with child-trafficking, see here. And check out this video in which a UN spokesman says of Maxwell, “She controls the oceans…”. Incidentally, the TerraMar Project Youtube channel features a couple of videos lauding Pope Francis and his commitment to caring for our natural home, eg here and here.

There’s much, much more to learn about this highly-connected globalist, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, including the number of times her name pops up on the flight logs with or related to Epstein. Looks like Pope Francis didn’t do his homework on this one – or more likely – he just doesn’t care, protected, as he seems to be, by the most powerful technocrats of the day.

Anyway, all those rabbit holes make the “reptile people” seem like a welcome diversion.

So I’ll end on a slightly different note: Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein visiting the Vatican in 2003. They apparently met with Pope John Paul II, having flown in by private jet for a blessing. Video footage from a 2005 police raid of Epstein’s home shows the photograph among a group, arranged, most likely, to impress Epstein’s unsuspecting victims.

I can imagine the conversation:

“Buy the rights to this picture pronto, Ghislaine – I’ve got a feeling it will come in useful one day.”

“Er, Jeff, where you’re going to end up, not even the Pope can save you.”

Gotta love those watermarks – looks like The Sun wants full credit for the image. Sorry Jeff.

JPII and his Christ-less Decalogue

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

My previous article looked at a few secularists who have taken it upon themselves to create a new code of ethics for mankind, meant to replace the Ten Commandments given to Moses on Mount Sinai more than three thousand years ago. It also mentioned one of the current Pontiff’s flights into fantasy when he rewrote the Commandments for a group of adoring fans in Rome.

The Ten Commandments, also known as the Decalogue, were of course, intended by God to be binding for all time. They are engraved into our hearts and are the guide by which we are meant to “know, love and serve God in this life” in order to one day be happy with Him in heaven.

While “Decalogue” literally means “ten words” – without any reference to their divine origin – the dictionary meaning always specifies The Ten Commandments as recorded in the book of Exodus. No dictionary I consulted listed any meaning other than that used by Christians. Thus, the name doesn’t apply to any old list of ten principles.

So it was with some surprise that I came across yet another novel “Decalogue” created with input from modern-day Pope: none other than John Paul II, who co-authored a “Decalogue of Assisi for Peace” in 2002. (This link will take you to the Vatican website, so you know it’s legit.)

Seeing the word “Assisi” always raises a red flag for traditionally-minded Catholics. That series of meetings with leaders from other faiths, held first by JPII then Benedict, was notorious for its open-slather ecumania and for the utter disdain shown by the reigning pope for his distinguished predecessors who warned of the dangers inherent in such an approach.

There were many incidents during the Assisi meetings that caused great scandal among believers, but perhaps nothing was worse than seeing a statue of Buddha being placed atop the tabernacle in St Peter Church at Assisi. (Images courtesy TFP except where otherwise cited.)

A small Buddha was placed on the Tabernacle at Assisi in 1986.

Benedict continued the craze. This is from 2011.

The Assisi “Decalogue”, like the secular versions already mentioned on this site, focuses on achieving peace on earth. However, as Christians we know that an earthly Utopia is impossible without the entire world acknowledging the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ as Lord and King. In JPII’s ecumenical “decalogue”, references to Jesus Christ are not just thin on the ground, they are entirely absent.

So while the sentiments sound nice, (what sane person doesn’t want peace on earth, for crying out loud?) the entire project was obviously a complete waste of time. How is that “culture of dialogue” working out for you, Vatican II?

Perhaps the entire Modernist project will be abandoned when our prelates realise that the directives laid down by God are the best ones: the best for our souls and the best for the world.

But then, that assumes that the men who are driving the demolition of the Church are acting in good faith. And, given the Church’s widespread capitulation to the State, the attacks on the traditional liturgy, and a Pachamama-worshipping Pontiff, that is something one very much doubts.

Commandments for the Age of Aquarius

Published on by Kathy Clubb1 Comment

“New Commandments for a New Age” – it’s a craze that is sweeping the post-tradition landscape and everyone from the Technocrats to the Pope is coming up with their own novel rules for life.

In this article, I reported on the Pope’s “Nine Commandments” as presented to the World Movement of Populist Movements; they are suspiciously reminiscent of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals:

  • Pharmaceutical companies should make patents for COVID “vaccines” freely available (SDG #3)
  • International credit institutions should cancel debt. (SDG #1 and #10)
  • Big resource corporations should stop polluting and stop destroying habitats. (SDG #7, 9, 13)
  • Food corporations should end monopolies and provide inexpensive food. (SDG #2)
  • Powerful nations should rely on global entities such as the UN for mediating conflict. (SDG #17)
  • Big tech corporations should censor “hate speech, fake news and conspiracy theories.” (SDG #11)
  • Arms manufacturers and dealers should completely stop arms production. (SDG #16)
  • Media corporations should provide digital education for the poor. (SDG #4)
  • The media should report in a moral fashion and protect those who are “most damaged.” (SDG #5)

But isn’t only Pope Francis who feels compelled to create a new set of Commandments to suit his Modernist agenda; the idea has been around in globalist circles for decades. Take the Earth Charter group for example. This was the brainchild of, among others, former Soviet chief Mikhail Gorbachev: a text of sixteen “commandments” was released in 1997 after years of discussion about how the world was to “develop sustainably.” Some influential names among the creators of the charter will no doubt be familiar to readers of this site, eg Steven Rockefeller and the Jesuit Liberation theologian Leonardo Boff.

Incidentally, the 1992 Rio Summit, which laid the groundwork for the Earth Charter “commandments”, led to the development of another set of modern-day “commandments” – the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. As mentioned above, Pope Francis’ new “commandments’ bear an uncanny resemblance to the SDG’s.

In 2001, the creators of the Earth Charter “commandments” went a step further and commissioned a sacrilegious version of the Ark of the Covenant, called the Ark of Hope. This humanist Ark was designed to hold the Earth Charter as well as something called the Temenos books, which are “a collection of prayers and affirmations for Earth.” Presumedly, the Temenos books are the equivalent of Sacred Scripture for the adherents of Gaia worship.

The Ark of Hope arriving in New York City in 2002.

Of special interest to those of us in Australia is the 2005 endorsement of the Earth Charter by the Federal government. At the time, the Senate stated that it:

  • Recognizes and supports the Earth Charter as an important civil society contribution to our understanding of sustainable development and the ethics and principles needed to promote a more just, sustainable and peaceful world;
  • Encourages the use of the Earth Charter by Federal and state educational authorities during the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development.

There has been no such endorsement of the Decalogue, however, with the government still struggling to present legislation that would provide consistent protections for religious freedom.

One of the most worrying aspects of all of these new codes of “ethics” is their focus on depopulation. The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals may not specifically mention a population target but their focus on “universal access to sexual and reproductive health” is a well-known code for “kill all the babies.”

One wonders how seriously the Australian government intends to take the Earth Charter’s commitment to zero population growth and by what means that would be achieved.

The idea of rewriting God’s Commandments seems to have been a popular one around the turn of last century. In 1999, Klaus Schwab told Forbes magazine that he wanted to educate the world with a new set of ten commandments – “ethical guidelines that would guide everyone in getting along.”

Researchers at the World Economic Forum revisited the topic in 2017, when, ignoring the fact that the Decalogue came straight from the hands of God, they remarked that man has always attempted to create his own code of ethics. The writers opine that these “man-made” codes always have internal inconsistencies and suggest that the world needs a “new code of ethics for a Brave New World.”

Of course, their dream is to see an internationally binding set of rules: it seems lost on them that you can’t get more global than the Commandments set down by the Creator of all mankind.

No survey of secular Commandments would be complete without a look at the intriguing and highly disturbing Georgia Guidestones. These were erected in Georgia, USA, in 1979 and echo the environmentally-friendly sentiments of the globalists.

1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely – improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion – faith – tradition – and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth – beauty – love – seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth – Leave room for nature – Leave room for nature.

The site where they stand has become a popular haunt (pun intended) of occultists; the Stones’ commandments were even given a hearty endorsement by Yoko Ono, wife of the late John Lennon, of Imagine fame.

So what are we to make of all these attempts at rewriting God’s Commandments? Not much, except to say that it is a sign of the times; references to the Imago Dei are notably absent in all of the Modern “commandments.”

According to the globalist doctrine, man is reduced to a mere economic factor in the totalitarian formula of stakeholder capitalism. And it should come as no surprise to faithful Catholics to see the current Vicar of Globalism at the forefront of those efforts to concoct New Commandments for the New World Order.

A Pachamama nativity scene in St Peter’s?

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

This article is republished from Libero Quatidiano (Google Translate has come to the rescue again!) It is a very interesting take on this year’s Vatican nativity scene.

Nostalgia. Once it was more fun: it was necessary to dig, carry out an exciting research, consult large books and experts … As in the days of the adventure of “Mary who unties knots”, HERE the cult spread by Bergoglio all over the world that we discovered has a worrying and unexpected magical-esoteric-Masonic background.

Also comes to mind the subtle alchemical connection of his “San José dormido”, HERE , or the engaging and laborious research on his pectoral cross with the Good Shepherd of the Rosicrucian Freemasons HERE

which His Excellency replaced, just a week later, with an Orthodox cross. Let alone a Catholic. As well as – always to the Rosicrucians – we discovered that the dew inexplicably inserted in the new missal belonged HERE .

Now, however, everything is becoming too easy, too obvious. There is no more taste. In 15 seconds flat we found, without fail, the new anti – Catholic catch of the Vatican “crib” whose inauguration is scheduled for this afternoon in St. Peter’s Square. Vatican News explains: “ The Nativity that will be set up for Christmas comes from the village of Chopcca in the Andes. It will be made up of more than 30 pieces and created by five famous artists from Huancavelica … ”.

Immediate Google search: “Chopcca-Pachamama”. Tàc . Here, read with us HERE on page. 198 the volume “ Los Chopcca de Huancavelica” , published by the Ministry of Culture of Peru: “In spite of the intense pastoral work of both Christian doctrines – Catholic and Evangelical – THE PRECRISTIAN CHOPUCHE RITUAL PRACTICES HAVE NOT BEEN UNRADICATED. Dependent on the forces of nature, it REMAINS among the villagers the conception of the world presided over by Apus or Wamanis, SPIRITS who live on the hills, and by the PACHAMAMA , entities which are EXPLICITLY MENTIONED IN THEIR RITUALS.The Apus major in the area, Qaparina and Cobremina, are the highest hills in the region, to which homage is paid with ceremonies and rites during the feasts of the production cycle. In herranza or Santiago, pagapu is performed, a ritual in which offerings are made to the god Apu or to PACHAMAMA for the protection of their animals. Similar rituals are performed during planting, harvesting and other activities that require the help and protection of the Andean deities. It is remarkable that the PRINCIPAL CULTURAL VICTIM of evangelical preaching (Protestant ed) were not the celebrations of the production cycle, where much of the Andean worldview is persecuted by Catholicism since the colonial era, BUT PRECISELY CATHOLIC RELIGIOUS FESTIVALS “.

So, while last year you enjoyed the horrifying esoteric-Masonic conciliar ceramic nativity scene of Castelli HERE (what an injustice for the Abruzzo town HERE ) with the horned warrior with a skull on his forehead HERE (typical Christmas character, right?) year touches the PACHAMAMIC CRIB , a tribute to the last population in the world that holds with tooth and nail this bloody pagan cult to which baby llamas are sacrificed and, it is said, once upon a time, also human sacrifices. In fact, out of about 20 animals present, there are at least EIGHT LAMAS in procession.

With all the villages in the world from which a nativity scene could be borrowed, it was necessary to choose Chopcca, where, moreover, Catholic feasts were defeated by Protestantism, leaving room for pagan divinities. Nothing else?

To find out more, read our interview with anthropologist Antonino Colajanni and Bolivian historian Damiàn Galeron HERE

Now, in spite of the Jesuit smokes on “inculturation”, know that the Pachamama is, in terms of form and religious content, the PERFECT ANTI-MADONNA . Nothing justifies continuing to promote its ancient cult, given that in South America, it has been largely supplanted, and for centuries, by the venerable Virgin of Guadalupe.

Now, if Mary is considered by believers to be the Queen of Heaven, the Virgin, the “all-beautiful”, the Woman clothed with the sun, wrapped in a starry mantle, She who welcomes the Word into her womb and who spreads spiritual graces to men of good will, if Our Lady gave birth to the Savior who sacrificed himself for men, Pachamama is, on the contrary, the pagan goddess of the Earth, naked, angular, gaunt, hungry, who demands cruel animal sacrifices (and perhaps once human) to provide material goods in exchange: crops and crops. Some say she would also be pregnant with the Antichrist, but we don’t go that far even though, after all, religious syncretism is a “technically” antichristic process. The definition is in fact given by St. John: it is Anti-Christ who does not recognize Jesus as the son of God. And if in syncretism all religions must be equal, obviously, goodnight to the divinity of Jesus, with all the annexes and connected. Do you understand? Elementary logic.

With all respect for the Andean religions, the iconography of Pachamama and his cult therefore constitute, in fact, a macroscopic reversal of the figure of Mary , to whom on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, on 8 December, Bergoglio has just dedicated a basket of white roses (perhaps costing 50 euros?) left there, on the balustrade of the monument in Piazza di Spagna, in the dark of a gloomy and lonely dawn. The excuse was “to avoid the gatherings”, which nevertheless did not seem to worry Bergoglio a couple of days earlier in Cyprus and Greece, given the swarms of crowds. An alternating current Covid, therefore.

In short, a distressing repetitiveness. They are letting go, they no longer even try to disguise a behavior perfectly consistent with the well-known program: the Marian cult, together with Transubstantiation, being primarily identities of Catholicism, must be removed, given that, as Bergoglio declared in La Stampa on March 13, 2021 HERE   ” We must not waste the crisis, but use it to build a New World Order” . If he says so, we can believe him.

In fact, for this Masonic project we need a new syncretistic religion that sends all the Catholic paraphernalia into the attic. A fascinating operation, but very risky given that, at least according to the “forecasts of the specialists”, from the prophet Daniel to Padre Pio, it should not end very well. In fact, as we have shown in 44 chapters of investigation (never denied) that you will find HERE at the bottom, there is already an unsolvable problem: Bergoglio is not the pope as Benedict XVI has never abdicated, so nothing he did. in eight years it is valid. We are therefore talking about hot air.

By the way, if you want to hear the real pope on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, feast your ears and – for those who are believers – your soul, with this luminous intervention by the Holy Father Benedict on December 8, 2012. HERE

“The voice of God – the Pope teaches – is not perceived by remaining on the surface, but by descending to a deeper level where the forces that act are not the economic and political ones, but the moral and spiritual ones. It is there that Mary invites us to go down to be in tune with God’s action ”.

(Other than sacrifices of baby llamas). This appeal by Benedict XVI is striking, just over two months after his retirement in the impeded seat, remaining pope hidden under the non-existent papacy emeritus.

And in fact, to understand his ” Plan B”, one must exactly renounce (at least inwardly) one’s material interests , position income, Bergoglian flattery, 8 x 1000 … One must descend into silence, where pure and disinterested intelligence acts logic, that of the Logos , the Incarnate Word. Only with concentration, the spirit of truth and reason will it be possible to understand the question by attuning to the action of the Vicar of Christ.

And we do not consider it accidental that, as the reader Anna Maria Conti tells us, the true Holy Father, just yesterday, wanted to appear in a photo holding a REAL CRIB.

Why did the bishop buy the Lodge?

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

It sounds like a joke, does it not? But this is deadly serious. A Catholic Archbishop, in need of new premises for his admin offices, concluded that a Freemason’s Lodge would be the best location from which to preach, teach and sanctify his unwary flock.

This story might be a few years old now, but it’s still worth taking a closer look.

Timothy Costelloe was installed as Archbishop of Perth in 2012, and in August 2015 purchased a $7 million property in Perth’s CBD from which to run the Archdiocese. The property, 249 Adelaide Terrace was owned by the Grand Lodge WA and had been used as their headquarters. Who knows what kind of deal was struck, but the bishop got quite a bargain as he paid half a million less than the amount paid by the Masons when they bought the property six years earlier.

Before and after shots of 249 Adelaide Terrace, Perth. Pictures with Archdiocesan signage are pretty thin on the ground, so if any reader can supply, I’d be most grateful.

Now it is somewhat strange for a Catholic institution to take over a Masonic temple – especially in these days when our bishops seem only too willing to “dialogue and accompany” the Masons. In fact, there could be one of only three reasons why a bishop would make this decision:

1. Extreme piety: despite exorcists claiming that it is sometimes impossible to cleanse a geographical site from demonic influence, the bishop is confident that he can enlist all the powers of the Church (exorcism, prayers of liberation, sacramentals, Masses) to free the site and use it to further the mission of the Church.

2. Ignorance: the bishop’s formation was so dumbed-down that he sees Masonry as no threat to Catholicism; he thinks it’s nothing more than a social club for men intent on growing their virtues.

3. He is a Mason and wants to access the power that comes from the dual processes of mocking God (by moving Church offices into a former temple) and of tapping into the rituals that have been performed there.

Hopefully it’s number 2, although that doesn’t minimise the risk to the Archdiocese. (Number One is out of the question – this is Australia, remember?) So what is known about Archbishop Costelloe? Does he have any form as a Mason or Masonic sympathiser?

Well, he says he is against child abuse (don’t they all?) but followed his predecessors’ footsteps by covering it up (ditto) – even though he has “seen the anguish” first hand. He says enforced celibacy causes priests to abuse children but then sacked a priest for breaking his vow of celibacy. (Obviously, the action taken by His Grace was appropriate, however, it does seem a tad inconsistent with his stance on celibacy….) The Archbishop is also involved with a few legal battles with his priests, not to mention whispers of his utter contempt for the more orthodox ones.

But at least he honours the ancestors, right?

He has even opted not to stick up for a Catholic school principal who is against the state government’s vaccine mandates. Instead of lauding that man, Archbishop Costelloe distanced himself from the principal, saying that he was “deeply disappointed.”

Yes, your Grace, it is always disappointing when a layman shows up the clergy’s lack of conviction by demonstrating his own.

So now, having looked briefly at some poignant items from the bishop’s CV, let us return to the title of this piece: why DID the bishop buy the Lodge?

All things considered, could the answer possibly be: to get to the Other Side?

Who needs the Stasi when we have the bishops?

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

Another Australian bishop has been throwing his pandemic-acquired weight around, this time in sunny Queensland. Mark Coleridge, Archbishop of Brisbane, has decided to collaborate with the tyrannical state government by forcing his priests to get vaxxed or risk losing their faculties.

The Catholic Premier of Queensland, Annastacia Palaszczuk, affectionately known as “Stasi,” has found a willing ally in the Archbishop of Brisbane. Like Daniel Andrews and his “good Catholic grandfather”, Palaszczuk has fond memories of her Polish grandparents with their “eight photos of Pope John Paul II in the living room.” Also like Daniel Andrews, Palaszczuk is left-wing, pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia and has been autocratically bullying her subjects into following a raft of COVID mandates, including barely-voluntary vaccination.

While the two State Premiers have much in common, it is remarkable to likewise observe some similarities between Archbishops Coleridge and Comensoli: the latter fancies himself to be the Australian incarnation of John Paul II, while the former was, at one stage, the Polish Pontiff’s speech writer. But unlike JPII, neither Archbishop seems to have the strength nor the will to stand up against their secular leaders’ repressive regimes.

Despite demanding that his priests are double-vaxxed with toxic gene serum by December 15th (“Clergy not doubly vaccinated are failing in their duty to care for the faithful”), the good Archbishop states that he respects his priests’ consciences.

“I too have a conscience”, says he. At least, that’s what he tries to convince them of in his four-page letter, reproduced below.

For the time-poor, the short version is: “You have to listen to me since I am the CEO of the Archdiocesan Corporation.”

The CEO, whose hobbies include holding Zoom meetings with his staff of one.
The Stasi, seen here throwing a totally innocent Illuminati-inspired hand signal.

Yes, that’s right. The Archdiocese of Brisbane is a Corporation, so as well as owing obedience to their Ordinaries, priests must also now submit themselves to medical trials at the behest of their CEOs. From the letter:

“I recognise that having a vaccination, including the COVID-19 vaccination, is a matter of personal choice. However, I am the sole member and officer of the Archdiocesan Corporation which in civil law is the employer of Archdiocesan staff, including those working in parishes. I am therefore bound to take seriously compliance with health directions. Further, I have a legal obligation to ensure that the Archdiocesan Corporation meets its workplace health and safety obligations….“

Oooohhh. Civil AND legal obligations. But no moral ones?

The Archbishop goes on to make some sophistic claims about his duty to protect his priests, his priests’ duty to protect their parishioners and everyone’s duty to protect unborn babies from medical experimentation – oops, sorry! – he didn’t actually write that last bit because Australian bishops no longer believe in minor obligations like upholding Catholic teaching.

Coleridge did include some extracts from Canon Law which is always guaranteed to make a prelate look more credible. The fact that those Canons are twisted and misapplied is neither here nor there. (He is a CEO with Obligations, remember!)

Just take a look at the penalties Coleridge has prepared for the non-compliant priests, who are, no doubt, some of his most holy and orthodox men: the cessation of their public ministry or worse – suspension of their faculties.

“In circumstances where a priest or deacon has not complied with paragraph 1 above by 15 December 2021, I will be asking that he voluntarily stand aside from pastoral duties in his parish and from all pastoral ministry until he has been fully vaccinated. Should a priest or deacon in such circumstances decline to stand aside voluntarily, I will need to consider the temporary suspension of faculties until he fully complies..“

Does the Archbishop not realise that unvaccinated Catholics (and probably many vaccinated ones) have no problem at all with being ministered to by an unvaccinated priest? The letter continues with a tirade about medical exemptions, and makes no provision for conscientious objection – or for objecting to His Grace’s conscientiousness!

Now, it really comes as no surprise that Archbishop Coleridge has agreed to do the government’s bidding. As President of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference – that same Bishops Conference which in 2017 approved Catholics to be Freemasons – he is more than familiar with handshake deals and fraternal cooperation. Coleridge is not even averse to using Brisbane’s churches for sexually-explicit entertainment or from pushing an heretical agenda at his pet project, the Plenary Council.

However, there may be just a little hope for Brisbane’s faithful, unvaccinated priests. It seems Archbishop Coleridge can sometimes be quite lenient when it comes to his pastors breaking the law – at least, it depends on what kind of law is being broken. If it is something on the scale of child sex abuse, he seems to be able to turn a blind eye. He can even enlist help from his pal Cardinal Cupich when the need arises. But something tells me that his unvaxxed priests will not be so fortunate.

In case there’s any doubt left as to what kind of prelate we are dealing with, here’s Archbishop Coleridge’s take on “synodality.” Given that it was St Charles Borromeo who risked contracting the plague to ensure that all Catholics had access to the Sacraments, Archbishop Coleridge unironically uses the patron saint of facing-down pandemics to promote heresy, all the while shirking his own responsibility to safeguard the souls of his flock.

The hermeneutic is strong in this one.
