CHURCH IN EXIT OR IN LIQUIDATION?

Pope Francis speaks with joy of the outgoing Church “; For me, in European countries such as Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, we are faced with a Church ” in liquidation “. And for all the naive and the gullible there are some figures, because if mathematics has a virtue, it is precision.

Today, in the land of Luther, the great heretic, honored today in the Vatican, 27% of Germans trust the Protestant Church, while only ’ 11% trust the Catholic Church, but it is worth noting that in 2017 the percentage of those who trusted the former was 48%, that is, in a few years the drop is 21%. As for Catholics, the percentage of those who trusted was 29% in 2017, in other words, the decrease is 18% in difficult auctions for those who lose more.

It should be added that the Catholic Church has 900 thousand employees and that in recent years it has changed its working standards to accommodate LGBT employees, that is, homosexuals and lesbians. transsexuals and other herbs of the same suit

At the same time, in 2016, 60% of Germans trusted and believed in Pope Francis; Today, after eight years of government, the percentage is 16%.

A catastrophic decline in the path of synodality, along which many travel together, perhaps without realizing that it leads them to the abyss.

But the Church is universal and resists self-demolition, invaded as Paul VI expressed by the smoke of Satan and resists and not only in Africa and Asia, but in Europe, America, Oceania.

It resists vigorously in countries that have suffered under Soviet communism, in Poland, Ukraine, Hungary, Slovakia, for example.

He resists in Holland with the great figure of Cardinal Eijk, in France where abbeys, monasteries and traditional convents and massive pilgrimages multiply, he resists less in Italy and Spain, but shows that the Vatican’s efforts to end the extraordinary rite of the Roman liturgy, they are useless and counterproductive, because they increase their diffusion.

It resists in the United States, because the Vatican’s efforts to break the unity of its excellent episcopate, with scandalous appointments such as that of the archbishop of Chicago, Cardinal Cupich, his prayers at the democratic conference and his ridiculous requests to his parishioners to refrain from communion kneeling so as not to prevent the fluidity of the transit of those who communicate, he recently forced us to remind him of the importance of worship, as an external act of religion, the first of the moral virtues and the teaching of St. Thomas Aquinas on kneeling, because the good disposition of the body helps the elevation of the soul.

He resists in Oceania, Australia, through the living example of Cardinal Pell and his virile and heroic behavior during his captivity, which recalls the great Vietnamese Francisco Javier Nguyen van Thuan.

It resists in Africa, where entire episcopates have repudiated the blessing of homosexual couples and where priestly and religious ordinations multiply and seminaries overflow with postulants.

It resists in Asia, despite the notorious handover of the Church to China by the Vatican to the Communist Party.

In this regard, we are reading a very interesting book by Fr. Enrique Rau, “Racism and National Socialist Christianity ” (Gladium, Buenos Aires, 1939), who received the Nihil osbtat by father Julio Meinvielle. Soon we will analyze it with a methodology that will convince any honest Catholic: where Hitler appears, we will put the name of the tyrant of China and where racism appears we will put sinicization.

But there is a big difference between Pius XII and sometimes even the deputies of the Chinese Communist Party.

But despite the betrayal of Cardinal Parolin endorsed by Francis, the clandestine Church resists and its members face persecution, prison and imprisonment in re-educational fields, but refuse to replace the images of Christ and the Virgin Mary, with the portraits of the tyrant Xi- Jimping –

The Church of Hong Kong resists, led by its great ninety-year-old cardinal Zen, who had to endure the mistreatment of Francis, who made him wait three years to receive him. How many comrades will he have received at that time of the Base Unit installed in the Vatican? Countless. Their low political gossip interests him and he likes them.

On the other hand, the noble figure of the resistant cardinal annoys him.

The Church of Vietnam resists in Asia, supported by the blood of its martyrs and by the exemplary figures of Cardinal van Thuan and his uncle, the martyred President Diem, with his crowded seminaries and numerous priestly ordinations, tolerated by the communist regime.

I can’t talk about the Church of Brazil because I lack the data. But little resistance is noted in Argentina, with a servile and populous episcopate, politicized and led by rough prelates in Buenos Aires and La Plata, lovers of poverty and annexations. A Church in liquidation, with almost empty seminaries, which rent rooms to maintain themselves and few ordinations.

According to AICA, there were seven diaconal ordinations this year, 3 in Buenos Aires, 2 in Santiago Rosario and 2 in Mendoza, where the new president of the episcopate “Palomo ” Colombo recommended to “love all without exclusions ”, except the priest Christian von Wernich, sentenced to perpetual imprisonment, his bishop

At least I can attest to the priestly ordination because I attended the first mass of Santiago Ibarra on December 12 in the packed chapel of the Don Jaime school in Bella Vista.

The new priest was ordained on December 7 in San Rafael, Mendoza, by the diocesan bishop, Carlos María Domínguez and belongs to the Institute of the Incarnate Word. Curious case of this Institute, born in Argentina and here in its country of origin, it is present only in San Rafael, Major Seminary, Minor Seminary, Novitiate and in the parish of San Massimiliano Kolbe, in La Plata, parish of Santa Rosa de Lima , in the Mercedes. Monastery of Nuestra Señora de Luján and Añatuya, Santiago del Estero, parishes of Suncho Corral and Los Juríes.

The IVE, mistreated by the pontifical commissioners Santos and Abril, may be in Gaza, Ukraine, Syria, but cannot settle elsewhere in Argentina, perhaps for the fear of its bishops that it may breathe new life into a Church. in liquidation.

Until the mentality of the group of bureaucrats and burini who today manage our church in liquidation changes, there is no future for this.

But God can do the impossible. We ask him in these Christmas times for mercy for our Argentine Church.

Viganò Suggests Bertone is ‘Contiguous’ to Freemasonry

In his recent interview with Franca Giansoldati, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò accuses Cardinal Tarscisio Bertone of having Masonic sympathies. Bertone, who is still alive, was Secretary of State to Benedict XVI and he continued in that position for the first seven months of Francis’ pontificate.

Like Pope John XXIII, Cardinal Bertone’s coat-of-arms includes a tower, which according to Masonic heraldry, represents the Masonic temple.

Bertone is widely regarded as one of Benedict’s ‘gatekeepers’, one who controlled the flow of information to the Pope; he admitted to knowing months in advance of the Pope’s decision to resign. Bertone’s farewell address to Benedict, flatters the Pope for his decision, even though elsewhere he said he did not agree with it:

“All of us have realized that it is precisely the deep love that Your Holiness has for God and the Church that prompted you to make this act, revealing that purity of mind, that strong and demanding faith, that strength of humility and meekness, along with great courage, that have marked every step of your life and your ministry…”

Cardinal Bertone’s Farewell Address to the Holy Father

According to Viganò, it was Bertone who exerted pressure on Pope Benedict to have Viganò removed from the Secretariat of State and subsequently transferred to the US as Nuncio. All of this was aimed at stopping Viganò from exposing financial corruption in the Vatican. Viganò was also abruptly evicted from his Curial home the day he turned 75, and denied an alternative within the Vatican walls.

Alarmingly, he suggests that his predecessor as Nuncio, Cardinal Pietro Sandri, was murdered for opposing then-Cardinal Theodore McCarrick.

Said Viganò:

Archbishop Sambi died in circumstances that have never been clarified, after a trivial operation at John’s Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore (which is connected to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the World Economic Forum in Davos). McCarrick disappeared for a month in 2011 – simultaneous to the death of the Nuncio – and did not attend his funeral. The death certificate issued to Msgr. Jean-François Lanteaume, Chargé d’Affaires at the Nunciature, did not explain the causes of the Nuncio’s death, nor was an autopsy ever carried out on Archbishop Sambi.

So, what is known about Bertone and does he have Masonic form?

We know that he was part of the ‘Old Guard’: that ‘mafia’ of prelates at the highest levels in the Vatican, who ran things behind the scenes before Bergoglio’s new gang came to town. Parolin is one of these, as was Sodano.

Bertone was responsible for making influential appointments within the Curia, the most notable of which was Cardinal Becciu’s appointment as sostituto in 2011. He also appointed Alberto Perlasca as head of the administrative office of the Secretariat of State in 2009. Perlasca monitored all the department’s financial transactions – including the ill-fated London Sloane Avenue deal and both he and Becciu went on to become central figures in the Vatican financial corruption trial.

Bertone himself is no stranger to accusations of financial misappropriation. In 2015, he was at the centre of the Vatileaks 2 scandal when it was revealed that he had used funds from the Bambino Gesù Foundation to renovate his large apartment in Vatican City. The apartment was apparently designed to house Bertone, his secretary and three nuns and included a rooftop entertainment area; half a million US dollars was diverted from the Bambino Gesù to pay for the renovations. In addition, there was corruption involved in the tendering process and a long-time friend of Bertone was given the contract for the job.

Although the case was mentioned in 2017 during the complicated Vatican finances trial, no charges were laid against Bertone, nor was he even called as a witness – Bertone repeatedly has claimed that Pope Francis sanctioned the renovations. The only conclusion given at the trial was that the Bertone affair was ‘anomalous.’

Yet that event pales into insignificance with older accusations that Bertone was involved in a misappropriation of Vatican funds to the tune of USD $15 million. Somehow this incident was never properly investigated and news articles about it have been scrubbed from the internet.

Bertone is also implicated in serious moral failings within the hierarchy. He knew at least as early as 2008 that Theodore McCarrick had slept with seminarians and although he was one of those responsible for placing sanctions on McCarrick, did nothing to enforce them. Also, despite his integral role in the McCarrick case, Bertone was not mentioned in the McCarrick Report.

But without a doubt, the most serious affair Bertone has been involved in was the deception surrounding the Third Secret of Fatima. Bertone, along with then-Cardinal Ratzinger and others, fabricated the interpretation of the Third Secret which was announced to the world in 2000. Their interpretation said that the ‘bishop in white’ who was murdered actually referred to the attempted assassination of John Paul II, that predictions of a chastisement actually referred to the Church’s ongoing opposition by the world and so on. Bertone met with Sr. Lucia on three occasions, claiming she approved their false interpretation as well as the inadequate Consecration made by Pope John Paul II. (For anyone with doubts: where are the fruits of this Consecration?)

It is difficult to fathom the magnitude of this betrayal by Bertone, Ratzinger, John Paul II and their clique. To firstly ignore and then misrepresent Our Lady is treachery of the most hideous kind.

If, as Archbishop Viganò suggests, Bertone is at the very least least, adjacent to Freemasonry, then this only adds insult to the injury of Holy Mother Church. Bertone should be added to the list of prelates who need our prayers: at 89, he has not much time left for conversion, and without it, an eternity in hell awaits him and all those who profit from their status in the Church or go so far as to mock the Mother of God.
